For those times when you’d rather not get sucked down another internet rabbit hole when you really just wanted the weather, an ambient display can be great. [AlexanderK106] built a …read more Continue reading Ambient Display Tells You if Borealis is Coming to Town
Northwestern University’s Embedded Electronics Class delivered a bumper crop of ESP-32 projects this year. The student teams recorded their progress on hackaday.io with project descriptions, logs, BOMs, diagrams, photos, and …read more Continue reading ESP32 Projects from Northwestern University’s Embedded Electronics Class
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 …read more Continue reading Lisp Runs This Microcontroller Pendant
Arduino has a library for quickly and easily setting up a simple web server on an ESP8622-based board, and [Tomaž] found that power consumption on an ESP-01 can be reduced …read more Continue reading ESP8266 Web Server Saves 60% Power With a 1 ms Delay
When the need for speed overcomes you, thoughts generally don’t turn to 8-bit computers. Sure, an 8-bit machine is fun for retro gameplay and reliving the glory days, and there …read more Continue reading This Snappy 8-Bit Microcomputer Brings the Speed to Retrocomputing
We’ve seen credit card-sized computers before, but [Kn/vD] shows us a PIC18-based computer with 9 components that is only 2 mm thick! With 13 K of RAM and 128 K …read more Continue reading You Can’t Be Too Rich or Too Thin — A 2mm Thick Computer
There are certain design aesthetics from every era that manage to survive the fads of their time and live throughout history. Ancient Greek architecture is still drawn upon for design …read more Continue reading Custom Calculator Brings Us Back To The 70s
Keeping older technology working becomes exponentially difficult with age. Most of us have experienced capacitor plague, disintegrating wire insulation, planned obsolescence, or even the original company failing and not offering …read more Continue reading A ’70s TV With ’20s Parts
For prototype electronics projects, most of us have a pile of resistors of various values stored somewhere on our tool bench. There are different methods of organizing them for easy …read more Continue reading Programmable Resistance Box
At some point when developing embedded applications, you’re going to want to store unique values in non-volatile memory, values that can’t be fixed at compilation time. Many microcontrollers have a …read more Continue reading Kved: An Embeddable Key/Value Datastore
