If something isn’t right, the software will help you fix it immediately, so you can eliminate any time-consuming and costly errors before you get too far along. When using DesignSpark Electrical, device and wire numbering happen automatically, cross referencing updates itself in real-time and the software checks your work as you design.

Specialist automated electrical design features.

We install the following components in this practical project.ĭon't hesitate and take your streaming/video recording to the next level with a custom and self-made hotkey deck. You will be able to create your own graphics for the OLEDs and then change them depending on the keystroke.

Likewise, depending on the selected variant, we will also look at the used libraries. I will show you in the course how to create the wiring based on the schematics. In the last part we dedicate ourselves to the programming of the Arduino. We expand the case step by step, so that we can complete the finished DIY Hotkey case over several chapters.Īgain and again, the already finished printed housing is also connected, so that you can spatially imagine the next steps well. Of course you can also use any other 3-D program, because I usually use only the conventional tools. This program is simple in terms of functionality and I find it intuitive to use.

I use the free program DesignSpark Mechanical. In this video course you will learn the basics of 3D design. We build the mount so that the OLEDs can be actuated and the underlying pushbuttons transmit the signal to the Arduino. The OLEDs are robust enough that we can also use them as 'push buttons'. VARIANT 2: You want more? More individualization? We use 4x OLED displays for this hands-on project to show the graphics. The design is built in such a way that the small buttons are operated by means of self-printed pushbuttons.

As often shown and used in other variants, in this project no buttons from a keyboard are used, but common (Arduino) buttons, which can be purchased cheaply or are available in every hobby workshop. This practice project has TWO options: The case fits for both variants, only the keyboard field changes. Frustration-free development is guaranteed. You will be provided with all codes and templates. We build this hands-on project step by step - both the 3D printing and the programming.
