Arduino Day Special: Top 5 Arduino 3D Printed Projects you can do!
Every electronic geek in the planet would have used Arduino atleast once in their hobby projects or crazy experiments. Especially in India, Arduino always has a special place in most of the electronic geek’s heart. Arduino boards jumpstarted the hobbyist and hacker culture among the facebook generation in India. So, here’s to the crazy ones who are using Arduino or want to!
This small arduino project is the ideal way to kickstart your journey with Arduino or flaunt your nerdy skills to the world. Chronio is an arduino based watch that satisfies the basic functions of a digital watch and also lets you play Flappy Bird! How cool is that!
But the best thing about the watch is its battery life which is claimed to be 6 months.The watch design is inspired from the Pebble Time. You can 3D print cool outer shells for the watch and also the straps using flexible prints.
All the details and instructions of Chronio are here!
2. Hexapoduino
For all the people bored of building line following robots!
This spidey shaped robot became an instant hit in the hacking community not only beacuse of its structure and locomotion mechanisms but mainly for its versatility. This 3D printed arduino based hexapoduino can draw, controlled using bluetooth and also can learn to follow lights. Now that’s a robot everyone wants to build!
You can find all about this project here
3. Classic 3D Printed Robotic Arm
Its every electronic geek’s desire to build one robotic arm atleast once. This has almost become a ritual in the robotics community.
Amateurs can directly 3D Print the the parts and burn the program in Arduino and start using it.
But if you wanna go above and beyond, you can always play with the LittleARM GUI to train the arm to do certain tasks.

4. RepRap Sensor belt / RangeFinder:
This little project helps you get superpowers similar to Chrales Xavier or Professor X from the X Men franchise! Well partially… The range finder / sensor belt helps you to detect nearby objects which triggers the respective vibration which enables you to sense those objects without seeing or touching it.
3D printed rangefinder comes with ulrasonic sensors which can be worn in your arm. The simple rangefinder concept uses Arduino Uno to enable one to “feel” vibrations from objects at fairly long distances.
Want a cool clock for your table or night stand? Meet Lunar Phase clock!
This 3D Printed arduino based clock has many features like an alarm clock, disco lights and also showcases different sights of the moon according to corresponding time i.e, lunar phase simulation.
The clock also has a lamp mode, hygrometer and can display the room temperature all in one screen at the bottom.
