The Raspberry Pi compute module is a powerful piece of hardware, especially for the price. With it, you get more IO than a normal Pi, plus the ability to design hardware around it that’s specifically tailored to your needs rather than simply to general-purpose consumers. However, this comes at the cost of needing a way […]

We were struck by how attractive [mircemk’s] Arduino-based frequency counter looks. It also is a reasonably simple build. It can count up to 6.5 MHz which isn’t that much, but there’s a lot you can do even with that limitation. The LED display is decidedly retro. Inside a very modern Arduino Nano does most of the

What is the Project About This is a device capable of recording and recognizing sophisticated 3d gestures and carrying out a preset action if the gesture matches, maybe changing the slide of a presentation, increasing volume or anything else that can be done using a keyboard and mouse. For example: rotate the hand counter-clockwise to

Have you ever wanted to turn the lights ON or OFF just by thinking about it? Or do you want to know how stressed you are by looking at the color of a RGB led? While now you can by following this Instructables! To get a feeling for what we are going to make today
When using an Arduino, it may result quite annoying to not be able to use it just because you do not have a computer available. Maybe the Windows or Mac OS isn’t compatible, you don’t have any computer at all or you just want more freedom for interfacing your board. The solution: a simple OTG

Classic computing on modern hardware: an expandable eZ80 CPU card running bare-metal Lisp. The MakerLisp machine is a portable, modular computer system, designed to recapture the feel of classic computing, with modern hardware. The machine centers on a 2” x 3.5” business card-sized CPU, which can be used stand-alone, or plugged in to a 2”

While you might think of radar pointing toward the skies, applications for radar have found their way underground as well. Ground-penetrating radar (GPR) is a tool that sends signals into the earth and measures their return to make determinations about what’s buried underground in much the same way that distant aircraft can be located or

Teledyne LeCroy T3DSO1000 Oscilloscopes are a 2- and 4-channel series of high-speed waveform-capturing devices. The robust T3DSO1000 series can capture up to 400,000wfm/s (in sequence mode), using a 7-inch TFT-LCD to display 256-level, intensity-grading results at 800×480 pixels. This family of oscilloscopes features 100MHz and 200MHzmodels, a digital intelligent trigger system, security erase mode, pass/fail functions, and USB compatibility. The 4-channel Teledyne
