SeanHodgins

SeanHodgins is the channel of Sean Hodgins, who describes himself as a filmmaker and engineer. He builds electronics projects and films the whole process.

Videos follow a project from idea to finished build. Many involve designing circuit boards, writing code for microcontrollers and using 3D printing or CNC machines. Some videos are playful, with a fictional sci-fi theme, while others are straightforward build logs. He explains the problems he hits along the way, which makes the process feel realistic.

Some highlights include:

This video shows him building his own image sensor from scratch and turning it into a working digital camera.

This one goes behind the scenes of an electronics build made in collaboration with Mark Rober.

This video shows off a volumetric display that lights up points in three dimensions.

The channel has around 173,000 subscribers.

SeanHodgins is a good way into electronic engineering and embedded systems. It shows how circuits, code and mechanical parts come together in one product. Students who enjoy electronics clubs, Arduino or Raspberry Pi projects will find plenty of ideas here. The videos also show tools such as CNC machines and 3D printers that are now common in school workshops and makerspaces. Seeing a project fail and recover is a useful lesson in itself. Most of his builds start from a simple question about how something works.
