A maker has built a standalone DJ system using the ESP32-P4, allowing a Pioneer DDJ-FLX4 DJ controller to work without a laptop running DJ software. The open-source Pajoniiir project uses a Guition JC4880P443C_I_W board with an ESP32-P4 and 4.3-inch touchscreen. It reads music from a USB drive exported from Rekordbox and supports MP3, WAV and FLAC files. The system can run two DJ decks at the…
As automotive, AI/data center, networking and industrial systems quickly migrate toward 48V power architectures to improve efficiency and support higher power demands, designers need more than visibility into instantaneous voltage and current conditions. They need systems that understand energy use over time and can respond intelligently to changing power conditions. Microchip Technology (…
A maker has built and tested a DIY 2.4-GHz directional Wi-Fi antenna using a 3D-printed frame and simple brass rods, showing how antenna geometry can significantly change the performance of an ESP32 wireless link. The experiment uses two ESP32 boards, with one acting as a Wi-Fi transmitter powered by a power bank and the other connected to a computer as the receiver. The receiver measures RSSI…
Bengaluru-based fabless semiconductor startup Morphing Machines has unveiled MuDRA-1, its first taped-out chip, at SEMICON India 2026 in New Delhi. The event ran from 17 to 19 September at Yashobhoomi. The company, incubated at the Indian Institute of Science, describes the chip as a first-silicon milestone and says it was designed in India.
MuDRA-1 is a test chip for REDEFINE, the…
An open-source project called KryonOS is a GUI operating system for ESP32 microcontroller boards, built for use with a touch display and an SD card module. Built by a single developer who goes by Haris (GitHub handle Haris16-code) and released under the GPL-3.0 license, it adds a real touchscreen interface, a file explorer, and an app store to hardware that normally runs just one fixed program…
Infineon Technologies AG (FSE: IFX / OTCQX: IFNNY) today announced the launch of its PSOC™ Control C3 Performance Line microcontroller family to enable real-time control for power and motor applications. The new family of microcontrollers (MCUs) offers best-in-class performance through high control loop frequency, accuracy and system efficiency. Based on Arm® Cortex®-M33 multi-core…
Researchers led by R.Wang have developed a transformable aerial robot made from two small bicopters connected by a cable, allowing the system to change its shape and interact with objects without using a conventional robotic gripper. Each bicopter uses two brushless motors with tilting propellers, while the cable itself acts as the key mechanical component. One aircraft carries a motorized…
The project documents a fully automated smart mailbox built by Re-Crafting DIY. It integrates advanced electronics to solve practical issues like package theft, weather damage, and inadequate storage space. By repurposing an old car’s wiper motor for the door mechanism, the mailbox features a heavy-duty, motorized front door controlled by a central brain. It might have been a little too much…
A YouTube creator running the channel "traffic in the brain" has published a detailed walkthrough of building a small-scale AI accelerator from scratch on a budget FPGA board, recreating the core architectural ideas behind Google's Tensor Processing Unit (TPU).
The project, released September 17, 2026, implements a two-layer attention model, the same…
A team from the Hong Kong University of Science and Technology (Guangzhou) and Hong Kong Polytechnic University has demonstrated a new eavesdropping technique that turns ordinary consumer electronics into unintentional radio transmitters, using nothing but an external RF signal and the target device's own circuitry.
The attack, detailed in a paper accepted to USENIX Security 2026 and…
Aaron Gayle’s TV‑Top Kiosk project shows how to squeeze a full 1920×1080 HDMI signal out of a RP2350 microcontroller, which is seen in the popular Raspberry Pi RP2350 development board. To reach 1080p, he overclocked the RP2350 to 372 MHz and used its faster peripherals to generate a DVI/HDMI signal at up to 30 Hz in 24‑bit color. The result is a tiny, low‑cost “console” stick, something like…
Kevin Coda of Concept Bytes Youtube channel built a tiny remote-controlled robot inside a poker chip for Mark Rober's CrunchLabs casino challenge. The project turns a standard poker chip into a miniature mobile robot that can move across a roulette table after receiving a wireless command. To make room for the electronics, the chip was hollowed out using CNC machining and its internal steel…
