As 2020 has been a horrible year, the first thing that came to mind was “kill it with fire!”. Although we love playing with fire and have great fire insurance, we both realised that using actual fire would not be the best idea. 2020 was bad enough without us mucking about with flammable stuff, so we opted for the next best thing: 3D printed fire!
The idea is to make the numbers “2020” out of playdough and satisfyingly smush them using the 3D printed fire. The object doing the smashing should be something that’s also had more than enough of the past year, so what about… planet earth?

Time to pull out all the stops for the biggest Super Make Something project to date! Using 3D printing, laser cutting, a Raspberry Pi, computer vision, Python, and nearly 600 Neopixel LEDs, I build a low resolution LED mirror that displays your reflection on a massive 3 foot by 3 foot grid made from an array of 24 by 24 RGB LEDs! From start to finish, this project was nearly two years in the making and was a big hit at the 2019 Cleveland Maker Faire at the Great Lakes Science Center on November 2nd!

This instructable has everything you need to build your own 3d printed Raspberry Pi enclosure. This enclosure is for the Raspberry Pi 3 model A+ and uses an Adafruit LED power button with safe shutdown script.

At the Wizarding World of Harry Potter in Universal Studios the tourists can perform “real magic” at certain locations (where the motion capture system is installed) using specially made wands with retro-reflective beads at the tip. The wands can be bought from a real Ollivander’s Shop which are exactly like the one’s shown in the Harry Potter Movies but do remember: “It is the wand that chooses the wizard”
At those certain locations if the person performs a particular gesture with wand, the motion capture system recognizes the gesture and all gestures correspond to a certain spell which causes certain activities in the surrounding area like turning on the fountain etc.
So, in this Project I will show how you can create a cheap and effective motion capture system at home to perform “real magic” by opening a box with the flick of your wand using just a normal night vision camera, a Raspberry Pi and some electronics, and some Python code using the OpenCV computer vision library and machine learning!

Yoga has an ancient tradition of physical and mental training to improve well-being. Modern Hatha Yoga, which emphasizes physical conditioning and mental strength through training physical postures, has been growing in popularity over the last couple decades.
However, the time and cost of getting to a yoga studio can be prohibitive. Still others would prefer to practice outside of the group setting.
Here, we explore the development of YogAI. With pose recognition, we implement a smart assistant to provide corrective advice to guide practitioners.

Looking for a new project to build around the Raspberry Pi Zero, I came across the pHAT DAC from Pimoroni. This little add-on board adds audio playback capabilities to the Pi Zero. Because the pHAT uses the GPIO pins, the USB OTG port remains available for a wifi dongle. Perfect for a small wireless speaker project!
