Every year, the nonprofit organization MAKE IT organizes the national LYRC (Luxembourg Youth Robotics Challenge) competition, which selects the national teams that represent Luxembourg at the VEX and FIRST global robotics competitions. This year, the Luxembourg team selected for the FIRST world competition—a team from the MS20 makerspace at the Lycée VAUBAN in Luxembourg—finished as world runner-up for the first time ever, thanks to its alliance ! Come discover this incredible achievement, made possible this year in Seoul, South Korea, thanks to MAKE IT !
LEAF & LOOM is a celebration of "slow art" and the wonders of nature, translated into sustainable, vegan textile art. Through the enchanting process of ecoprinting and natural dyeing, I transform natural fabrics like silk and cotton into unique, wearable artworks. The vibrant colors and intricate patterns are thoughtfully extracted directly from leaves, flowers, and everyday botanicals like avocado seeds, giving textiles a beautiful new life through circular design principles. Visitors can discover the magic of botanical dyeing through continuous live demonstrations and explore a curated selection of naturally upcycled pieces. Step into a world of "mindful making" a calming, experience designed to help you slow down, explore sustainable craftsmanship, and deeply reconnect with nature.
Make It is excited to bring robot combat to Maker Faire Luxembourg with the fifth edition of “Luxembourg Yells – Robot Chaos”! Join us from 10:00 onwards for this energetic and entertaining side event. (Wait—LYRC?! Not quite… this is the fun, chaotic cousin! 😄) We invite makers, hobbyists, and curious tinkerers to take part in a friendly yet action-packed competition based on the antweight category. This means: Robots must weigh under 150 grams They can be built from plastic only or mixed materials Robots must be remotely controlled (no programming required!) Ready to join the chaos? Bring your robot and be part of the action!
Die Asiatische Hornisse breitet sich in Europa weiter aus und stellt besonders Imker, Naturschutz und Kommunen vor neue Herausforderungen. Doch wie erkennt man ihre Aktivität frühzeitig, wenn niemand dauerhaft vor Ort sein kann? In diesem Vortrag zeige ich, wie aus einem einfachen Locktopf mit Kamera-Modul, Mikrocontroller, 3D-Druckteilen und lokaler KI-Erkennung eine kleine DIY-Monitoringstation entsteht. Der konkrete Anwendungsfall ist die Asiatische Hornisse, der Maker-Kern dahinter ist aber universell: günstige Hardware, Edge-AI, Offline-Speicherung und Citizen Science für praktisches Umweltmonitoring.
Your Sounds, Your Lights two DIY Raspberry Pi Pico projects The Pico Synth. A pocket-sized DIY synthesiser, designed to be easy to use while never getting boring. Based on a Pi Pico, it has a full range of features ,pitch bend, multiple sound samples, vibrato, and sound filtering, making it a real instrument. The Pixel Animator. A digital canvas you can draw on, pixel by pixel, and then animate frame by frame. It's playful, immediate, and teaches the foundations of animation and colour mixing. Made to be built. Both projects are designed from the ground up to be assembled by makers aged 9+ Stop by, make some noise, draw with light. Maybe you'll be part of the next Pico workshop ;) Presented by UNHINGED (unhinged.works) interactive media, electronics and STEM workshops.
Gibt es den universalen Werkstattsauger, der an alle Elektrowerkzeuge passt? Leider nein. Aber es gibt ein Adaptersystem zum Selbermachen, das immer passt. An unsrem Stand zeigen wir osVAC neo. Dazu werden wir eine große Anzahl von Verbindern zum Anfassen und Ausprobieren dabei haben und ihr könnt euch selbst davon überzeugen, wie vielseitig man osVAC neo nutzen kann. An einer Standbohrmaschine könnt ihr live sehen, wie vorteilhaft eine clevere Absaugung ist.
The Open Music Box is a screen-free audio player for children that you can build yourself. With a simple NFC card, children can play their favourite music and stories independently. Parents add their own audio files and organise content through a mobile app. With no subscription, no advertising and no cloud dependency for playback, the MusicBox is designed to be repairable and customisable. Combining electronics, 3D printing and the joy of making, it encourages children to explore through listening and families to create together.
Maker Faire is a gathering of fascinating, curious people who enjoy learning and who love sharing what they can do. From engineers to artists to scientists to crafters, Maker Faire is a venue for these "makers" to show hobbies, experiments, projects.
We call it the Greatest Show (& Tell) on Earth - a family-friendly showcase of invention, creativity, and resourcefulness.
Glimpse the future and get inspired!
