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[…]
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[…]

Notice its smiling back face, was totally intentional:) This pot won first place in Darüşşafaka’s country-wide, second Read more about Vertipot: Fertilizer Producing Vertical Pot[…]
Last year, I got accepted to MIT’s professional additive manufacturing course. Interesting fact is that the acceptance criteria for the course was being a university graduate and having 4 years of experience in that area. I had 4 years of experience, but I am not a university graduate, I am still in high-school. Read more about MIT Additive Manufacturing Course[…]

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[…]
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[…]
