 This GPS Guided RC Boat project is a great way to capture some interesting pre-determined navigation scenes. The boat does a great job of navigating until it hits something or gets swamped. Joseph Fortune has a page that provides build details and code so you can make your own.  “Here is a rough layout of the parts. The 9V battery hooked to the engine was actually one of those 7V rechargeable
The ESP8266 Serial WIFI Wireless Transceiver Module is popular (we have  been giving them away in some contests). It packs a lot of features in a small package for a great price. Make spoke with the creators of the Arduino Support for that device. Since there is a powerful microcontroller running the device they were able to pack in some additional code to get some work done on the side. “Make: Did

Great video by Jim Browning using Wireshark to detect the IP address of the computer scammer.
 Photoplethysmography sensors are popular in hospitals to measure your heart beat. Watch the video below that NickTech did that shows how the hobbiest can play with this technology. You can get a sensor ready to go from places like AdaFruit and SparkFun. Advicy uses this type of sensor to detect when you are driving drowsy. Sounds like a great product but I am also thinking it is a
 Interesting how Nissan has gone through some massive ups and downs over the years. In the end it took a non Japanese to pull the car manufacturer out of the red. They are now mass producing an incredible super car. The car is beautiful but the hackable tech under the hood is what makes it stand out. The Nissan GTR has been designed for high performance for people with
