YouTuber Zachary McCune from Corridor Crew has turned a simple fire spinning hobby into an ambitious engineering project that can create images in the air while spinning. The project uses the principle of persistence of vision (POV), where rapidly changing lights appear to form a continuous image when moved quickly through space. Instead of using a conventional screen, the device displays an…
21 August 2026: Circuit Digest has been named the Digital Content & Outreach Partner for electronica India 2026, taking place from 16–18 September at BIEC, Bengaluru.
As part of the collaboration, Circuit Digest will identify relevant industry voices, shape discussion themes, host the conversations and distribute the resulting content across its website, YouTube channel and social…
Naz Louis has upgraded his open-source robot Pixel, giving the walking desk robot a new AI system that can see, remember, and reason about its surroundings in real time. The new build runs on Gemini Robotics ER2, an embodied-reasoning model built by Google DeepMind for near real-time robotics applications. The model receives a continuous stream of camera and microphone input and has direct…
TICKEY is a compact clip-on gadget that combines a 3.7-inch, 720 × 480 color e-paper display with an ESP32-S3 microcontroller, Wi-Fi, Bluetooth and NFC. Instead of behaving like a normal LCD or OLED screen, its e-paper display is designed to keep a static image visible without continuously consuming display power. Users can show pixel art, photos, digital badges, QR codes, notes or personal…
An open source project called Meowtion packs two on device AI models onto a single microcontroller with only 256KB of RAM, using a scheduling trick rather than model compression to make it fit. Built by Jerome Graves and documented on Hackaday.io, the wearable collar tracks a cat's eating, drinking, and resting behaviour to flag early changes that can precede illness.
The collar runs on…
MIT researchers have built working logic circuits using engineered bacteria, creating biological versions of components that electronics engineers would normally associate with transistors, relays and digital logic. The work uses Pantoea agglomerans, a bacterium that commonly grows on surfaces, including plants. The researchers modified the cells so they could function as two types of…
TDK Corporation (TSE:6762) announces the introduction of the TDK-Lambda DDSM 120 W and 240 W programmable DC-DC converters. These products feature a wide input and output voltage range with an isolated design. The DDSM series also offers remote control and real time monitoring via Modbus over USB using the PowerCMC control and monitoring center. In addition, a…
YouTube creator Zac Builds has modified a Nintendo 64 by combining several hardware upgrades aimed at making the nearly 30-year-old console more practical to use with modern displays and accessories. The project retains the original N64 motherboard while adding a RetroGEM HDMI modification, USB-C-based power delivery, internal wireless controller support, CPU overclocking and improved cooling…
Kerala-based robotics firm Genrobotics has signed a memorandum of understanding with the Tamil Nadu government to set up a manufacturing facility for its robotics product line, with plans to invest ₹150 crore over the next five years. The MoU was inked at the Vettri Tamil Nadu Investment Conclave 2026, held in Chennai, where the state government signed agreements with 97 companies for a…
A team of engineering students from ETH Zürich has developed POLARIS, an autonomous underwater robot designed to measure and map the thickness of ice from underneath frozen alpine lakes. The idea is to make ice surveys safer and faster, especially in places where people need to know whether the ice is strong enough for activities such as racing or other work on frozen lakes. Traditionally, ice…
Researchers at Duke University's General Robotics Lab have built a system that lets one drone follow another using nothing but the sound of its rotors. The project, called SonicFly, estimates a leader drone's bearing and distance from onboard audio alone, without GPS sharing, cameras, radio links, or any active signal exchange between the two aircraft.

A Sweden-based creator who posts under the name Food For Robots has hand-wound and machined a custom electric actuator from scratch for a bipedal walking robot project, and in the process documented a counterintuitive result about motor design: adding more turns of copper wire to a motor's stator does not increase torque output for a given amount of electrical power.
