This video shows how to make your own strobe light using an Arduino and an LED strip. The strobe light is useful to visualize the stroboscopic effect and is much better than a strobe light app on your phone. Watch this video to learn more about the stroboscopic effect: https://youtu.be/kUUl-QcbHbA and watch this video to learn how to build your own levitating water fountain: https://youtu.be/6vWprI6OPJo. For written instructions for the Arduino strobe light, including a circuit diagram and…
Have you ever wondered how an Amazon Echo, Google Home or Apple Homepod can control lights and household appliances using voice commands? This video provides an overview of how you can make your own voice-controlled appliance using an Arduino and a voice recognition module.

This video shows you how to build your own surprise glitter package. Inspired by former NASA engineer Mark Rober's video, this glitter package design is much simpler. No advanced electronics or programming skills are required. Making your own surprise glitter package makes a great #science or #engineering project for students just getting started with circuits.
Note: This video is an example of how students can use the engineering design process to think through a way to use #STEM to simplify…
