The BareDuino Nano is the world’s smallest Arduino compatible board. It was designed by a very young maker, Niek Blankers, aged 15, from the Netherlands. Niek has been interested in electronics since he was less than 8 years old. A couple of years ago when he was given the first Arduino board, he fell in […]

This project details the design of a very low dropout adjustable power supply. A good power supply is essential to electronic projects, and being able to hook this up to a breadboard makes it very useful to hobbyists. It features a dropout of only 40mV – 400mV compared to 1.25V – 2.0V for a LM317 […]

NXP Semiconductors has announced a family of small-footprint wireless modules based on the ultra-low-power JN5168 microcontroller. Supporting multiple network stacks including ZigBee Home Automation, ZigBee Light Link, ZigBee Smart Energy, JenNet-IP and RF4CE, the JN5168 wireless modules feature footprints as small as 16 x 21 mm and very low power consumption in transmit and receive […]

86 participants saw the real demonstrations of fast 4D Systems displays programming live. 4D Systems displays are user-friendly so you don’t have to be an expert. You could learn more about them during SOS webinar, that was dedicated to 4D Systems displays. This webinar informed you about: advantages of modules and 4D Systems displays, development […]

Recent studies from two research teams at the Polytechnic Institute of New York University (NYU-Poly) demonstrate how underwater robots can be used to understand and influence the complex swimming behaviors of schooling fish. The teams, led by Maurizio Porfiri, associate professor of mechanical and aerospace engineering at NYU-Poly, published two separate papers in the journal PLOS ONE.

with Leonard Shtargot Staff Engineer, Power Products The LT®8610 step-down regulator integrates key high performance features in one compact IC. It offers synchronous rectification, for efficiencies up to 96%. The low quiescent current of 2.5µA extends battery life and saves extra circuitry. High speed switching minimizes board space and helps avoid EMI problems. A low […]

WiFi is something we have wanted to do for a long time, but there are a lot of technical and regulatory challenges around it. If you’re running an OS on an embedded PC like the Raspberry PI, WiFi is simple, you buy a cheap dongle and the intelligence is in the driver. For a low […]

(Phys.org) —Startup Play-i has created a crowd-sourcing campaign to gather funds for building and selling its pair of robots called Bo and Yana—both are part of an overall toy design to teach children as young as five years old, to program a computer. The idea, the team says, is to get children interested in programming by making it a part of storytelling.

The mUVe 1 3D Printer, an open UV resin based 3D printer was successfully funded on indiegogo back in April. As estimated, the first Ultimate kit was shipped out on Jun.20. Last weekend the team has completed building and shipping all of the Ultimate kits. Meanwhile Dean Piper, the maker behind the mUVe 1 3D […]
