Making of a Light Switch with a Capacitive Proximity Sensor

Click here for the video. This is a light switch with a capacitive proximity sensor. I couldn’t find any comprehensive source on the internet on running capacitive proximity sensors near AC current sources, so I wrote mine. It is 101 pages long and has everything you need to know. Hope you find it useful. (The Read more about Making of a Light Switch with a Capacitive Proximity Sensor[…]

Alarm Light

Last year in UAA MakerClub (the club I founded 4 years ago to teach others in my school), Ege Özgül, our students and I worked on an alarm clock that can wake you up by increasing light. It had WiFi to set alarms from your phone. The top section (the Iceberg) is a giant button Read more about Alarm Light[…]

I could print this more than 6 years after I have designed it!

Ending hibernation… System Rebooting… Hello World! I wanted to come back to the social media world posting about an object with an interesting story. The part you see is something I could print more than 6 years after I have designed it. Back when I designed it, my parents were thinking I was playing a Read more about I could print this more than 6 years after I have designed it![…]

Robot Animation Challange

An animation project I worked on with my schoolmate Ege Özgül for a competition our school wanted us to enter. At our school @uskudaramericanacademy, an IT teacher, @busrazorbaelcin told us that the robotics team of the school has forgotten the deadline for this animation and she thinks we can do. If we were to do, our performance grades Read more about Robot Animation Challange[…]

Press the dishwasher indicator’s button to change the state of the indicator LEDs, once you started the dishwasher, once you realize it has ended, if you need to, Read more about Dishwasher Indicator[…]

PCB Etcher

  Making PCB at home takes time even though it might be your quickest way. The method I used requires the uncovered copper to be dissolved inside the hydrochloric acid and hydrogen peroxide mixture. That takes long; once I waited about 6 hours. This thing I have designed on a night, which I call “etcher”, Read more about PCB Etcher[…]

Meteorology Station V1

Simple codes, a very simple design, here is the meteorolgy station. It was from three years ago when I first started my club named MakerClub. Since it was my first year of teaching, it is that simple. Both because people were new to making these kind of things, and I was new to teaching, so Read more about Meteorology Station V1[…]

Filament Holder V3

It was an ordinary day. I printed the first prototype using MakerBot. Then, the final protoype using Form 2. I cleaned the parts in IPA, cured under UV light. I was about to sand it, I realized that I accidentally printed two left sides. Ever since I 3D printed the right side of the filament Read more about Filament Holder V3[…]

Dog Food Container Needs an Angle

My dog and his long ears eat the food together sometimes, or sometimes we need to put a cone in his head for him not to bite himself, which makes him look like a walking satellite antenna. Becoming an antenna is hard for him because it interferes between the food and the food transceiver, his Read more about Dog Food Container Needs an Angle[…]
