Over the years [Integza] has blown up or melted many types of jet engine, including the humble pulsejet. Earlier improvements revolved around pumping in more fuel, or forced air intakes, but now it’s time for a bit more refinement of the idea, and he takes a sidestep towards the more controllable detonation engine. His latest experiment (video, […]

AMD launched a Ryzen Embedded “open ecosystem” for mini-PCs from multiple vendors, which runs on its Ryzen Embedded V1000 and the newer Ryzen Embedded R1000 system-on-chips. The new line of hardware includes two new Linux enabled mini-PCs from OnLogic, the R1000-based ML100G-40, and V1000-based MC510-40. The systems highlighted in the Ryzen Embedded mini-PC ecosystem are aimed at rugged industrial applications, in exception of ASRock mini-PCs on AMD’s list, which

I had some spare 4-digit 7-segment LED displays and some AT90USB82s, and I’d always intended to do something with them. This was probably the easiest thing! It’s just the AT90 driving the display, with a(t least) 4 wires controlling it: Vcc, GND, MOSI and SCK. (I haven’t written the code yet, but my plan is
Radxa has officially launched the Rock Pi N10, a sandwich-style 100 x 100mm board based around the Rockchip RK3399Pro SoC. This community-backed board has a new flavor of RK3399 that adds up to 3-TOPS NPU co-processor for better performance in deep-learning workloads. The new Rock Pi N10 has a maximum RAM allotment beyond the RK3399’s 4GB limit so it can provide
Smartphones are pivotal to our day to day activities. They help us in many ways, but too often they become a time-consuming burden we carry with us all the time. Due to this, Mudita addressed this problem, through designing Mudita Pure phone. The Mudita Pure phone has a minimalist design for simple living. The company says: Designing Mudita Pure was

This clock is based largely on Alan’s code and circuit with a few changes. I purchased a kit of parts for the main board from Alan’s site. I have used three voltmeters and mounted them on a wooden plinth with a clear Perspex cover to give the clock an industrial look. I have modified Alan’s
Due to power consumption (amongst other factors), IoT solutions typically prefer to rely on fancy web-based dashboards and mobile apps for user interactions rather than the use of displays, but scenarios (like industrial IoT applications) arises where a display is required to drive real-time interaction with users. To provide a solution suitable for this kind

Displays have over time, emerged as one of the best ways to drive user interactions on any device. They make it easy to collect inputs and present information (outputs) to users in a graphical, easy to understand format. This usefulness has led to improvements in their quality, with improved resolution and low power features, but

Perhaps the most frequently used rechargeable batteries on the market nowadays – Lithium-Polymer (Li-Po) can be found also in our offer. From the beginning of electronics, the world searches for an “ideal” rechargeable battery. So far such a battery doesn´t exist (maybe supercapacitors in the future), but Li-Po (Li-Pol) cells are quite near to an
For those who choose to let their cats live a more or less free-range life, there are usually two choices. One, you can adopt the role of servant and run for the door whenever the cat wants to get back inside from their latest bird-murdering jaunt. Or two, install a cat door and let them
