It has been a while since we’ve seen a 86Duino, but [TheRasteri] reminded us about it, with his video showing how to use one to run classic MS-DOS games. To be fair, the computer isn’t really an Arduino, it’s essentially a tiny 486 PC on an Arduino-style PCB. If it were just running DOS games on

Every now and then you might be interested to input text to your arduino project. You can do it using Serial input but this would require Arduino to be always connected to a computer. In this tutorial I would show you how to implement text input using the small OLED display and 5 key keyboard
In this post I will discuss about the Introduction to Arduino Ethernet. In the previous articles I have discussed different Arduino microcontroller development boards such as Arduino UNO, MEGA, NANO, PRO MINI, MICRO, Lilypad etcetera. All these Arduino boards resemble to each other in some of the specifications and also are unique in their applications

As various antique computers age, it becomes increasingly hard to operate them as hardware begins to physically fail. Keeping these systems up and running often requires scavenging parts from other machines which are only becoming harder to find as time goes on. But if you throw out the requirement of using only era-appropriate components, there

Like artificial intelligence, speech synthesis was one of those applications that promised to revolutionize computing in the 1980s, only to fizzle out after people realized that a robotic voice reading out predefined sentences was not actually that useful. Nevertheless, computer manufacturers didn’t want to miss out on the hype and speech synthesizers became a relatively
