Person Wearing Haptic Headband With Vibration Motors This Arduino UNO Q Headband Uses 13 Vibration Motors for Screen-Free Awareness Through Haptic Feedback

Maker pasquale887 has developed HaloSense V1, a wearable haptic headband that helps users sense the direction of people and objects through vibrations instead of looking at a screen. The headband has 13 small vibration motors arranged around the forehead. When a person or target is detected in a particular direction, the motor in the corresponding position vibrates, helping the wearer…

A DIY Mushroom Robot Moody Mush: DIY Interactive Mushroom Robot That Follows Your Touch

Moody Mush is an interactive, mushroom‑shaped robot built by SayaNIGHT. It has three modes of operation. In Mode 1, it functions as a desk lamp; the LEDs and cap (the head portion) are controlled with an IR remote. In Mode 2, the LED colors are adjustable with the same remote, but the robot also reacts to touch. Different movements and sounds occur depending on the type of touch (a short touch…
