Capturing a perfect night sky can be daunting. You usually need a long exposure to capture the brightness of stars, even on the clearest of nights. Also, because of the rotation of the earth, when you take pictures, the stars in pictures often show tailing or streaks. One solution was the equatorial mount that typically […]
Now it’s here. Epishine’s ”light cell” can change how we power small electronics – a thin and flexible organic solar cell that can be integrated into sensors, consumer electronics, and other low power devices to reduce or eliminate the need of batteries. We are very proud to have taken the results from more than 25

A team of researchers made up from the University of California San Diego and California-based company ZPower have developed a flexible, rechargeable silver oxide-zinc battery with a 5 to 10 times greater energy density than standard batteries. A good characteristic of the battery is that it is easier to manufacture because most flexible batteries need to be manufactured in sterile conditions, under vacuum,
Reclaimer Labs has launched an STM32WB Feather development board that is based on STMicro’s first wireless STM32 MCU which was announced sometime around last year. The STM32WB Feather board like other development boards in the STM32 family of wireless MCUs is built around the STM32WB55CG SoC which includes an 64MHz Arm Cortex‐M4 running as the main processor along with a 32MHz Cortex‐M0+

Nordic Semiconductor has announced an enhanced Power Profiler Kit II (PPK2) for profiling power consumption in embedded solutions with support for their nRF51, nRF52, nRF53 short-range wireless SoCs, and nRF91 low power cellular SiP. Since it is important to optimize applications to consume as little power as possible while developing battery-powered products, PPK2 is one right tool for
The NORA-B10 series are small, stand-alone Bluetooth 5.2 low energy, wireless microcontroller unit (MCU) modules from the Swiss wireless chip manufacturer u-blox. These modules are built around the Nordic nRF5340 chip that is powered by two Arm® Cortex®-M33 processor cores. The first core is intended for high-performance applications, clocked at either 128 or 64 Mhz. The second core is clocked at 64
