Pinball machines are large, complex, and heavy boxes of joy and delight. However, when you don’t have the money or space for one, you have to make your own mini Raspberry Pi-powered one. With access to a local makerspace and a bit of extra free time, [Chris Dalke] had plans to capture the flavor of a

I’m probably as guilty as anyone of reinventing the wheel for a subpart of a project. Heck, sometimes I just feel like working on a wheel design. But if that’s the path you choose, you have to think about whether or not it’s important that others can replicate your project. The nice thing about a bog-standard wheel

Aaeon has announced the release of the Boxer-8110AI embedded computer. The Compact board which is similar to Aaeon’s Boxer-8120A which was released in May is based on the Nvidia Jetson Tx2 Module and is capable of running Linux distros like Ubuntu. While it offers a more compact size (110 x 65 x 40mm), just like the Boxer-8120A, the Boxer-8110AI it comes with 8GB of

Powerful new tool facilitates first-time-right analog & high voltage design implementation in even the most challenging of scenarios. Continuing to drive innovation in analog/mixed-signal IC fabrication, X-FAB Silicon Foundries SE (http://www.xfab.com/) has announced the introduction of SubstrateXtractor. Unwanted substrate couplings can impact modern IC developments, causing parasitic effects that are damaging to overall performance. Engineers
One of the things this community is famous for is the degree to which people will pitch in to fill an obvious need. Look at the vast array of libraries available for Arduino as an example of how people are willing to devote their time to making difficult tasks easier, often for little more than

Join us on Wednesday, April 21 at noon Pacific for the AVR Reverse Engineering Hack Chat with Uri Shaked! We’ve all become familiar with the Arduino ecosystem by now, to the point where it’s almost trivially easy to whip up a quick project that implements almost every aspect of its functionality strictly in code. It’s incredibly useful, but

High-level programming languages do a great job of making a programmer’s job easier, but these languages often leave a lot of efficiency on the table as a compromise. While a common thought is to move into a lower-level language like assembly to improve on a program’s speed or memory use, there’s often a lot that
