Hackaday readers might know [Victor Scheinman] as the pioneer who built some of the first practical robot arms. But what was a kid like that doing in high school? Thanks …read more Continue reading Retrotechtacular: Voice Controlled Typewriter Science Project in 1958
We aren’t sure if it qualifies as fluidic logic, but [Steve Mould] was inspired by a simulation of water flowing through a maze and decided to build some actual mazes …read more Continue reading Finding Paths with Water is A-Mazing
When we first saw this 1944 US Office of Education film about hand soldering, we figured it might still have some good information. Well, perhaps it does, but the 1944 …read more Continue reading Retrotechtacular: Solder Like its 1944!
In 1996, the 3Dfx VooDoo VGA chipset changed computer graphics forever. Because of the high cost of memory, most of the boards had only 4 MB of memory — which …read more Continue reading Upgrade Your Voodoo with More Memory
There are projects you create to share with the world, but there are also those you do just because you want something for yourself. Lucky for us, [Dietrich-L]’s 30-year-long project …read more Continue reading CP/M 6502-Style
Machine learning is supposed to help us do everything these days, so why not electron microscopy? A team from Ireland has done just that and published their results using machine …read more Continue reading Machine Learning Helps Electron Microscopy
We often write quick bash scripts and judging by the comments, half of us use bash or a similar shell to pop out quick, useful scripts, and half of us …read more Continue reading Linux Fu: Gum Up Your Script
If you wanted to create a VGA card, you might think about using an FPGA. But there are simpler ways to generate patterns, including an old-fashioned EPROM, as [DrMattRegan] points …read more Continue reading EPROM Does VGA
When we first started 3D printing, we used ABS and early slicers. Using supports was undesirable because the support structures were not good, and ABS sticks to itself like crazy. …read more Continue reading A Comprehensive Look at FDM Supports
You know how it is. You have an older computer, and you can’t run the latest software on it. Time to upgrade, right? Well, if you have been in this …read more Continue reading The 4004 Upgrade You’ve Been Waiting For
