We were amazed by the outpouring of responses we received &#8211; nearly 120 engaging stories from community members in over 40 countries and regions. Reading these heartfelt anecdotes filled us with gratitude and inspiration. From the customer who used our products to start his own business, to the teacher who used our technology to enrich her students&#8217; education, each story demonstrated the power of what we do. Even simple messages about how our products have made daily life easier carried great meaning.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<div style=\"height:10px\" aria-hidden=\"true\" class=\"wp-block-spacer\"><\/div>\n\n\n\n<div style=\"height:\" aria-hidden=\"true\" class=\"wp-block-spacer\"><\/div>\n\n\n\n<p>Behind each submission is an individual who cared enough to share a piece of themselves.

The most challenging aspect of conducting behavioral experiments is automating measurement devices. These devices are often commercially available but are typically expensive and limited in functionality. In the research field, the most commonly used data acquisition devices (DAQs), which integrate analog-digital (AD) converters and microcontrollers, were those from National Instruments. These came with a costly set of software, making them too fancy for early-career scientists like myself. Then, I discovered Arduino. The Seeed Studio&#8217;s <a href=\"https:\/\/www.seeedstudio.com\/catalogsearch\/result\/?q=Grove\">Grove <\/a>shield series significantly lowered the entry barrier. With their system, all I had to do was connect the relevant sensors and actuators using a standard cable, which automated most of the processes needed for my experiments. This allowed me to produce actograms of mice\u2019s circadian behavioral activities under various light cycle conditions and helped me publish well-cited papers in respected journals such as PNAS and Nature Communications. The software is available for everyone on <a href=\"https:\/\/github.com\/JihwanMyung\/LocoBox\/\">GitHub<\/a>, and the hardware description will be announced in a short paper soon. I am grateful to have encountered Seeed Studios, which facilitated my entry into the field and made many things possible. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<div style=\"height:31px\" aria-hidden=\"true\" class=\"wp-block-spacer\"><\/div>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-text-align-center has-medium-font-size\"><strong>\u2618\ufe0f Wendell Capili from Philippines<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-image\">\n<figure class=\"alignleft size-large is-resized\"><img fetchpriority=\"high\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/www.seeedstudio.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/12\/dog-1030x844.png\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-89342\" width=\"258\" height=\"211\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.seeedstudio.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/12\/dog-1030x844.png 1030w, https:\/\/www.seeedstudio.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/12\/dog-300x246.png 300w, https:\/\/www.seeedstudio.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/12\/dog-768x629.png 768w, https:\/\/www.seeedstudio.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/12\/dog-1024x839.png 1024w, https:\/\/www.seeedstudio.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/12\/dog.png 1333w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 258px) 100vw, 258px\" \/><\/figure><\/div>\n\n\n<p>There was a competition exactly 12 years ago (October 2011) and I won 2nd place!

I had never done programming before. The seed of my thoughts fell on fertile soil, lovingly created by the Seeed Studio engineers in the form of a huge set of electronic modules. On this first board I created and tested more than ten of my Arduino projects. I even used an original floppy disk box to protect the board. Thanks to Seeed Studio, I went from a regular person to a programmer. Also, this small board allowed my comrades to take their first steps in programming. Everything always worked reliably. I also bought other modules from Seeed Studio. They always beat high quality. The Seeed Studio staff always quickly answered my questions and provided the necessary support. I can recommend Seeed Studio products to everyone.

To reach the objectives, I purchased a Wio Terminal with a battery chassis as well as two liquid sensors from Seeed Studio, a TDS and a turbidity sensor. With my programming background, it was very easy to get started with the Wio Terminal, and by using the Edge Impulse platform it was similarly straightforward to create a machine-learning model. After a couple of iterations, I completed a model that was able to correctly classify five different liquids. By adding more sensors, for example, a pH-sensor, it might even be possible to classify different types of wine. The project was a success and showed how it is possible to use affordable consumer-grade or hobby electronics to prototype solutions that might be scaled up further for professional and industrial usage.
