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…

THIEF RIVER FALLS, Minn., USA – DigiKey, the global distribution leader of electronic components and automation products, announces an upcoming webinar, “From board to build: Using UNO Q and App Lab,” which will take place Feb. 12, 2026, at 9 a.m. CST.

The webinar, sponsored by Arduino, will explore how Arduino’s UNO Q and App Lab work together to accelerate prototyping, enable…

CHANDLER, Ariz., February 3, 2026 — The increasing AI and high-performance computing workloads demand power solutions that combine efficiency, reliability and scalability. Integrated power modules help streamline design, reduce energy use and deliver the stable performance required for advanced data centers. Microchip Technology (Nasdaq: MCHP) today announces the launch of the MCPF1525 Power…

The nRF9151 MicroMod Processor is a compact cellular IoT module built around Nordic Semiconductor’s nRF9151 System-in-Package (SiP) and designed to work seamlessly with SparkFun’s MicroMod ecosystem. Using an M.2 E-Key connector, the 22 × 22 mm board plugs directly into compatible MicroMod carrier boards, making it easy to add cellular and positioning capabilities without complex wiring or…

A creative maker has developed an impressive self-playing chessboard that can automatically move pieces using magnets and detect their positions. The board is equipped with magnetic sensors beneath each square, while each chess piece has a small magnet on its base, allowing the system to precisely track every piece. An ESP32 microcontroller is part of the setup, handling some hardware…

A maker has completed and demonstrated a remote-controlled bionic butterfly, sharing the build process in a recent online video. The project involved assembling a lightweight artificial butterfly with flapping wings driven by remote control components. Viewers were shown the step-by-step construction, including key mechanical and electronic elements of the flyer.

According to the video…
