This video takes a look at the Seeedstudio XIAO board. In it, I unbox the device, take a look around it, assemble it, and I also show you how to prepare the Arduino IDE to get the XIAO up and running in no time!
Building an Arduino based capacitive touch kitchen timer – Part 3
This part of the Arduino based capacitive touch kitchen timer series discusses the software that will make the capacitive kitchen timer come alive. It also talks about how I implemented the capacitive touch ring and some experiments I conducted to ensure good gesture detection and user experience.

This part of the Arduino based capacitive touch kitchen timer series discusses the hardware aspects of the project. In the last part, we took a look at the project idea itself, the goals, and skimmed over the theoretical principles behind capacitive sensing. So, it was now time to design a simple circuit and a PCB, which proved to be quite a bit more difficult than expected…

I wanted to create dynamic power lines for a game that I’ve been working on in Unity for the last few weeks. I couldn’t find a solution that satisfied my requirements, and so I decided to implement a custom solution, which I wanted to share with you.

I finally came around finishing this project and I also made a video in which I explain the build and also show you how to assemble the project. This article covers the case design and some changes in the source code in more detail compared to the video.

I enjoy building these kits and so I thought that it was time for season 2 of the banggood stuff webseries. This episode covers a 15$ oscilloscope kit you have to assemble yourself:
