The design uses an Arduino UNO Rev3, a stepper motor with a gear reducer, a rotary encoder, and an OLED screen, while a ground strap provides a current path that keeps welding current away from the electronics. ### Source excerpt MIG welding isn't very difficult -- at least not until you need to weld something at a weird angle or over a long seam. Those situations will make your welds look like they were done by an inebriated amateur. The best way to handle that is by setting yourself up to maintain stability through the [...] The post This custom motorized turntable makes welding easier appeared first on Arduino Blog. ## Blue Proton Initiative: four 17-year-olds are building AI-powered livestock monitoring with Arduino DevFeed: [Blue Proton Initiative: four 17-year-olds are building AI-powered livestock monitoring with Arduino]() Original publisher: [Read original article]() Author: Arduino Team Published: 2026-08-27T13:18:53Z Content type: article Language: en Sources: [Arduino Blog]() Topics: [Arduino](), [Artificial Intelligence](), [Computer vision](), [Neural Network](), [object-detection](), [C](), [datasets]() Tags: [ai](), [ai-powered-livestock-monitoring](), [arduino](), [computer-vision](), [data](), [livestock-monitoring](), [model-training](), [monitoring](), [neural-networks](), [uno-q](), [yolo]() ### AI overview An Arduino Blog article profiles four 17-year-olds in Italy developing an AI-powered livestock monitoring system with the UNO Q.
