In this video I show you how to incorporate accelerometers into your Arduino projects. The GY-87 module contains the MPU6050 IMU chip. The MPU6050 contains 3 accelerometers for measuring acceleration along the x axis, the y axis, and the z-axis. In todays lesson we will look at how to calibrate the accelerometers for greater accuracy. I will take you through things step-by-step, and show you how to connect the module and program it.

In this video I show you how to play simple songs on your arduino using a passive buzzer. We will use a transistor to drive the buzzer, as we showed in lesson 42. I show how the passive buzzer can be programmed to operate at a specific frequency, allowing different tones, or notes. We start with simple sounds, and then I show how you can create simple music. Enjoy!

Guys are you ready for a new Raspberry Pi Pico W project where we will build the Ultimate GPS tracker? I hope so! In todays video we will go over how to connect the Adafruit Ultimate GPS version 3 to the Raspberry Pi Pico W. By the end of the lesson, we will be reading NMEA sentences from the GPS into the Raspberry Pi Pico. We will watch as the GPS gradually gets a fix, as it finds more satellites in the sky.!
We are actually pursuing building a GPS Tracker, and this is the gear we will be using in this class:

![Give Your NVIDIA Jetson Orin Nano a Voice! (Piper TTS + JetPack 7.2)
Want to give your NVIDIA Jetson Orin Nano a voice? In this video, we are building a 100% local, offline AI voice assistant using Piper TTS on JetPack 7.2. Forget cloud-based APIs—we are building an edge AI voice pipeline that runs entirely on your hardware with near-zero latency.
Whether you are building a smart robot, a home automation system, or just want to add a personality to your Jetson projects, this lesson covers everything from system preparation to the Python pipeline code.
Get the code, the installation commands, and the full lesson here:
[INSERT LINK TO YOUR WEB PAGE HERE]
About the Project:
We are using Piper TTS to create a high-quality, fast, and lightweight voice engine. This pipeline is fully offline, private, and runs natively on the Jetson Orin Nano. By using Python and Linux pipes, we minimize overhead and maximize performance on your edge AI hardware.
Your Homework Assignment:
I want to see what you can do! Your assignment is to turn this into an interactive Echo Bot.
Choose your favorite voice model from the Piper repository.
Use Pythons input() function to make it conversational.
Use a while True loop to keep the bot running.
Post your video of your working Echo Bot!
IMPORTANT: In your video description, please include a link back to THIS video so we can keep the community connected and see each others work.
