Find the latest electronics industry news covering new electronics components releases in various electronics domains such as embedded, power electronics, analog, digital, IoT and Automotive industries.
This is an open-source desk robot built around the ESP32-C3 Mini and a small OLED display. The ESP32 provides Wi-Fi connectivity, allowing the robot to fetch real-time weather data from OpenWeatherMap.org while also displaying the current time. The OLED screen presents both useful information and cute emotional animations, giving the device a Mochi-style desk…
A maker recently demonstrated how to build a fully functional self timing electric motor using only basic electronic components, no microcontrollers, motor drivers, or brushes required. The minimalist design uses a single transistor, two hand-wound coils, a battery, and a pair of neodymium magnets mounted on a rotating shaft. Instead of relying on electronic timing…
A split second can decide who wins and who loses and this DIY project proves that even milliseconds can be engineered. By building a compact sensor rig with affordable electronic components, the creator achieved a measurable 10% boost in muscle reaction speed. The system relies on surface electromyography (sEMG) sensors to detect the tiny electrical signals produced by muscles at the exact…
A community project called MimiClaw has released software that lets an AI assistant run on ESP32-S3 microcontroller boards and respond to commands sent via the Telegram messaging app. The system acts as an intermediary between user messages and an online language model, enabling both conversational responses and hardware control functions such as GPIO, sensors, and actuators.

YouTuber EastMakes set out to build something, a true RGB 14-segment display module. Wanting a retro alphanumeric display style for a large LED message board project, he designed his own module using ultra-tiny SK6805 addressable LEDs measuring just 1.5 mm square. Since datasheets lacked precise placement references, he scanned a physical display and calibrated the image in CAD software to…
February 10, 2026 – Mouser Electronics, Inc., the industry's leading New Product Introduction (NPI) distributor with the widest selection of semiconductors and electronic components™, is providing engineers with the latest information in its extensive edge computing resource center. Reshaping how digital intelligence interacts with the physical world, edge computing moves computation closer to…
Open-source personal AI assistants such as OpenClaw have shown how task automation can be integrated with everyday chat platforms, but they usually assume desktop- or server-class hardware. PicoClaw, a new project from Sipeed, targets a different class of devices by focusing on very low memory usage and simple deployment on small Linux boards. It is positioned as a lightweight alternative for…
STMicroelectronics (NYSE: STM), a global semiconductor leader serving customers across the spectrum of electronics applications, today announced the Stellar P3E, the first automotive microcontroller (MCU) with built-in AI acceleration for automotive edge intelligence. Designed for future software-defined vehicles, the Stellar P3E simplifies multi-function integration for X-in-1 Electronic…
A YouTube channel named The Amazing PhD has presented an engineering project that showcases the development of a wrist-mounted grappling hook system, a compact mechanical device inspired by fictional gadgets but implemented using real-world engineering principles. In the video, the creator documents the complete design and development process, explaining how the system integrates a projectile…
EyeROV, an underwater robotics startup, has completed what it claims is “one of the longest tunnel surveys in North India, marking an important step forward for advanced tunnel inspection and monitoring in the country.” According to EyeROV, the tunnel leakage monitoring was notable for being carried out at an altitude of around 4,000 feet above sea level.
The announcement further stated…
What if a small sensor could understand space in three dimensions? A maker recently showed how a Time-of-Flight (ToF) sensor can be turned into a basic 3D scanner. The sensor sends out infrared light and measures how long it takes to return, a method known as time-of-flight distance measurement. By using a multi-zone depth array, it captures several distance readings at the same time, creating…
A recent video by Axiometa explores an unusual electronics challenge: driving addressable NeoPixel LEDs entirely in hardware, without any microcontroller or code. Since WS2812-style LEDs normally rely on tightly timed digital data from MCUs, the project asks whether basic components like counters, timers, and logic gates can replicate the protocol. The goal was to generate the required pulse…
