THE EVOLUTION OF LIGHT: NICHIA AND INFINEON TO BUILD HIGH-DEFINITION MICRO-LED MATRIX SOLUTION FOR ADAPTIVE DRIVING BEAMS

Electronics News Updates / By Ibrar Ayyub

Automotive lighting as an important safety and popular design feature in vehicles has evolved rapidly in the past years. Now, Nichia Corporation and Infineon Technologies AG (FSE: IFX / OTCQX: IFNNY) start a collaboration to add further momentum to this evolution. Together, they are developing a high-definition (HD) light engine with more than 16,000 micro-LEDs for front light applications. Unlike current […]

YOU CAN BUILD A GIANT 7-SEGMENT DISPLAY OF YOUR VERY OWN

Arduino News / By Ibrar Ayyub

Sometimes you need to display a number nice and large, making it easily readable at a good distance. [Lewis] has just the thing for that: a big expandable 7-segment display. The build is modular, allowing it to be extended from 2 to 10 digits and beyond. The digits themselves are made of 3D-printed parts assembled onto

Evil Macropad

Other Project Ideas / By Ibrar Ayyub

I don’t have to introduce your colleague, Richard. He is The Backbone of the society. Hard worker, everyone knows he is busy all day. He gets all the praise. But you know the truth. And only you. He is hardly working. All he does is roam around with a folder with empty sheets of papers.

DIY STREAMDECK HELPS YOU PROFESSIONALIZE YOUR TWITCH SHOW

Arduino News / By Ibrar Ayyub

The one thing that separates the pros on Twitch from the dilettantes is the production values. It’s all about the smooth transitions, and you’ll never catch the big names fiddling with dodgy software mid-stream. The key to achieving this is by having a streamdeck to help control your setup, like this straightforward design from [Electronoobs]. (Video, embedded

Arduino As a Cheap Breadboard FPGA

Development Board – Kits Projects / By Ibrar Ayyub

Designing hardware logic circuits can be fun. The old school way to do this was with NAND gates, on a bread board, wired up with jumper wires. This is still possible, but it doesn’t take much before the number of gates gets out of hand. A newer option is to use an FPGA (Field Programmable

TIDY POV DISPLAY USING THE ESP32

Arduino News / By Ibrar Ayyub

Chinese Youtuber [corebb] presents the second version of his POV display. The earlier version used 5050-sized SMT addressable LEDs, which didn’t give great resolution, so he rev’d the design to use a much higher number (160 to be exact) of APA102 LEDs. These are 2mm on the side, making them a little more difficult to handle, so

LISP RUNS THIS MICROCONTROLLER PENDANT

Arduino News / By Ibrar Ayyub

As a programming language, Lisp has been around longer than any other active language except for Fortran. To anyone who regularly uses it, it’s easy to see why: the language allows for new syntax and macros to be created fluidly, which makes it easy to adapt it to new situations, like running it on a modern

Getting Started With the Particle Photon (Internet Controlled LEDs)

LED Projects / By Ibrar Ayyub

In the previous instructable I showed you how to get started with IoT using the nodeMCU, in this instructable I will be featuring the Particle Photon which is an easy to use IoT device to get started with designing IoT projects. The particle photon is smaller than the nodeMCU and features STM32 ARM Cortex M3 microcontroller on
