Sync Google Drive with Arduino Science Journal projects
Reading Time: 2 minutes Note: Google Drive is available to all users over the age of 14. This is so we adhere to the COPPA compliance requirements for students under 14-years-old. Students and teachers can now sync Google Drive with their Arduino Science Journal experiments. This means you can access experiments from any device using your Arduino account. The…… Continue reading Sync Google Drive with Arduino Science Journal projects
Raspberry Pi: a versatile tool for biological sciences
Reading Time: 3 minutes Over the nine-ish years since the release of our first model, we’ve watched grow a thriving global community of Raspberry Pi enthusiasts, hobbyists, and educators. But did you know that Raspberry Pi is also increasingly used in scientific research? Some of the scientific applications of Raspberry Pi that Jolle found Dr Jolle Jolles, a behavioural…… Continue reading Raspberry Pi: a versatile tool for biological sciences
Going hands-on with STEM during the pandemic
Reading Time: 2 minutes This article was written by Valentina Chinnici, Arduino Education Product Manager. The last year has clearly been challenging for educators around the world due to the pandemic. Yet despite these difficult times, educators and students haven’t stopped getting hands-on and experimenting with STEM. But how is it possible to create a systematic environment for student ideas…… Continue reading Going hands-on with STEM during the pandemic
Get your SteFly™ – Nice sightseeing tour of Pavullo city
Reading Time: < 1 minutes https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=0tIGLZUFHIQ Nice sightseeing tour of Pavullo city during the traffic pattern. At the last competition day of the 1st e-glide contest it was very difficult to get back home to the airfield. The finish cylinder was big enough to stay out of the rain shower and still finish the task. With a lot of patience…… Continue reading Get your SteFly™ – Nice sightseeing tour of Pavullo city

FluSense takes on COVID-19 with Raspberry Pi
Reading Time: 3 minutes Raspberry Pi devices are often used by scientists, especially in biology to capture and analyse data, and a particularly striking – and sobering – project has made the news this week. Researchers at UMass Amherst have created FluSense, a dictionary-sized piece of equipment comprising a cheap microphone array, a thermal sensor, an Intel Movidius 2…… Continue reading FluSense takes on COVID-19 with Raspberry Pi
Raspberry Pi vs antibiotic resistance: microbiology imaging with open source hardware
Reading Time: 4 minutes The Edwards Lab at the University of Reading has developed a flexible, low-cost, open source lab robot for capturing images of microbiology samples with a Raspberry Pi camera module. It’s called POLIR, for Raspberry Pi camera Open-source Laboratory Imaging Robot. Here’s a timelapse video of them assembling it. Measuring antibiotic resistance with colour-changing dye The…… Continue reading Raspberry Pi vs antibiotic resistance: microbiology imaging with open source hardware
Growth Monitor pi: an open monitoring system for plant science
Reading Time: 3 minutes Plant scientists and agronomists use growth chambers to provide consistent growing conditions for the plants they study. This reduces confounding variables – inconsistent temperature or light levels, for example – that could render the results of their experiments less meaningful. To make sure that conditions really are consistent both within and between growth chambers, which…… Continue reading Growth Monitor pi: an open monitoring system for plant science
A low-cost, open-source, computer-assisted microscope
Reading Time: 2 minutes Low-cost open labware is a good thing in the world, and I was particularly pleased when micropalaeontologist Martin Tetard got in touch about the Raspberry Pi-based microscope he is developing. The project is called microscoPI (what else?), and it can capture, process, and store images and image analysis results. Martin is engaged in climate research:…… Continue reading A low-cost, open-source, computer-assisted microscope
Exploring a classic physics problem with Arduino
Reading Time: 2 minutes Exploring a classic physics problem with Arduino Arduino Team — September 11th, 2019 As described in this project’s write-up, “The brachistochrone curve is a classic physics problem, that derives the fastest path between two points A and B which are at different elevations.” In other words, if you have a ramp leading down to another…… Continue reading Exploring a classic physics problem with Arduino
