What kind of device is this? And what can you do with it? Well, this device doesn't need much explanation.
The most useless device in the world!
The Useless Box literally serves no purpose, but at the same time it's so hilarious that you'll want to show it to everyone. With this kit you have the opportunity to build your own Useless Box and expand your technical knowledge. Ultimately, this device switches off every time it is switched on and therefore performs a completely pointless function.
Still curious? Then watch the video below. A must-have for every office: at home or at work!
When you see a Mendocino motor for the first time, you can't help but be fascinated. It floats in the air and spins by itself, seemingly without any source of energy. The functional principle is actually quite simple. The Mendocino motor is a magnetically levitating electric motor powered by solar energy. The solar panels supply current to the coils mounted on the shaft, which generates a magnetic field. The strong magnet attached to the base (the housing) provides a magnetic force that causes rotation. Thanks to the unique magnetic suspension, there is almost no friction. Make sure you have enough light! The stronger the light source, the faster it spins!

Raspberry Pi-based Eye Catcher
A standard sand clock just shows how time passes. In contrast, this Raspberry Pi Pico-controlled sand clock shows the exact time by “engraving” the four digits for hour and minute into the layer of sand. After an adjustable time the sand is flattened out by two vibration motors and everything begins all over again.
At the heart of the sand clock are two servo motors driving a writing pen through a pantograph mechanism. A third servo motor lifts the pen up and down. The sand container is equipped with two vibration motors to flatten the sand. The electronic part of the sand clock consists of a Raspberry Pi Pico and an RTC/driver board with a real-time clock, plus driver circuits for the servo motors.

The Mendocino Motor AR O-8 is a magnetically levitated, solar powered electric motor as a kit.
Light Becomes Movement
The solar-powered Mendocino motor seems to float in the air. At first glance, you can't see why the rotor is turning at all. This is the magic of the motor.
The Lorentz force is a very small electrical force. In a classroom setting, it is detected by a current swing in the magnetic field. With the Mendocino motor, we have succeeded in developing a beautiful application that uses this weak force for propulsion. Due to its concealed base magnet, the motor will fascinate technically inclined observers.
In bright sunlight, the motor can reach a speed of up to 1,000 rpm. More impressive, however, is that even the faint glow of an ample tea light (D = 6 cm with a flame height of about 2 cm) is sufficient to drive the motor. The motor is not yet an alternative source of energy, even though it looks tempting. Presumably, it will remain an attractive model until a resourceful mind disproves this assumption.
Dimensions
All solar cells 65 x 20 mm
Mirror diameter: 25 mm
Rotor weight: approx. 150 g
Model length: 160 mm
Model width: 85 mm
Frame height: approx. 85 mm
Frame material: black acrylic
Tube made of highly polished aluminum
Mirror color: silver
The Mendocino motor’s easy-to-follow instruction manual includes more than 70 illustrations. It describes a safe and practical approach to construction but also gives you the freedom to try your solutions.
Partly Pre-Assembled Kit
A portion of the kit comes pre-assembled. Bonding the borosilicate glass pane to the acrylic surface requires specialized knowledge and aids. We do not want to impose this on the hobbyist. For instance, the base magnet is attached to the aluminum tube.
As a hobbyist, you will need some know-how and appropriate tools: carpet knife, soldering iron and tin, hot glue, pliers, and a clamp or ferrule to fix the supplied assembly aid. A lot of fun is guaranteed!
The AxiDraw is a simple, modern, precise, and versatile pen plotter, capable of writing or drawing on almost any flat surface. It can write with your favorite fountain pens, permanent markers, and other writing implements to handle an endless variety of applications. Its unique design features a writing head that extends beyond the machine, making it possible to draw on objects bigger than the device itself.
Designed for high performance
AxiDraw V3 is an all-new version of the AxiDraw, redesigned from the ground up for high performance. It features smooth rolling wheels on custom aluminum extrusions, specially designed for high stiffness and light weight. Its sturdy, rigid construction gives it finer quality output and in most applications allows it to operate at up to twice the speed of the previous AxiDraw.
Designed for longevity
AxiDraw V3 features a new, highly repairable, field-serviceable design for a long life. While no parts on AxiDraw require regular replacement, this new machine is built with a screws not glue design approach throughout, where essentially every component can be replaced by the end user if it should ever become necessary.
Applications
The AxiDraw is an extremely versatile machine, designed to serve a wide variety of everyday and specialized drawing and writing needs. You can use it for almost any task that might typically be carried out with a handheld pen.
It allows you to use your computer to produce writing that appears to be handmade, complete with the unmistakable appearance of using a real pen (as opposed to an inkjet or laser printer) to address an envelope or sign one's name. And it does so with precision approaching that of a skilled artist, and -just as importantly- using an arm that never gets tired.

Raspberry Pi Pico is a great solution for servo control. With the hardware PIO, the Pico can control the servos by hardware, without usage of times/ interrupts, and limit the usage of the MCU. Driving the six servos on this robotic arm takes very little MCU capacity, so the MCU can deal with other tasks easily. This 6 DOF robotic arm is a handy tool for teaching and learning robotics and Pico usage. There are five MG996s (four are needed in the assembly and one for backup) and three 25-kg servos (two needed in the assembly and one for backup). Note that for the servos the angle ranges from 0° to 180°. All the servos need to be preset to 90° (with logic HIGH 1.5 ms duty) before the assembly to avoid servo damage during movement. This product includes all the necessary items needed to create a robotic arm based on Pico and Micropython.
