We can’t see magnetic flux lines but with an inexpensive piece of Magnetic Viewing Paper we can easily visualize what we are missing. I took the motor magnet out of an old 5 1/4 floppy drive and was amazed at the complex magnetic pattern that emerged. It looks like the outer ring of the magnet has magnetic notches that are read by the electronic circuit. I imagine this is used
Are Wiimote hacks a joke compared to what is around the corner? NeuroSky is developing some consumer technology that might lead the way to some intense game control in the near future! Video after the jump. “NeuroSky has developed a cost effective bio sensor and signal processing system for the consumer market. Our wearable technology unlocks worlds of new applications such as consumer electronics, health, wellness, education and training. The
Not everything that costs lots of money and comes in a velvet case is good quality. Sprites mods has a good article about hacking a “secure” USB memory stick. It seems that the manufacturer broke all the rules when attempting to implement security. “Seemingly, the checking of the password and the unlocking of the stick are two separate processes, both initiated from the PC. From the point of view of
If you want to hack a normal flashlight into a cool blue LED one have a look at this flashlight hack from Deadly Computer Blog. Looking for some LEDs for your next project? Check out these LEDs. “Now granted, my blue LED flashlight is a far cry in brightness compared to the original white one, but i don’t care, cause as i mentioned above, the fact that it’s blue makes
If you are wanting to pull off the info of a NAND memory chip, this article is sure to enlighten! “NAND flash chips are used in all sorts of electronics for storing information/firmware etc. If you are interested in trying to get the information out to study, then I may have something useful for you. This is how I read the flash chip without removing it from the device.” Thanks
Maverik allows you to fly your model plane just like a real plane, no need to install lots of stuff that the original plane would not have. Maverik will fly the plane just as you would if you could shrink down to fit in your plane! “Imagine that You have already made a perfect scale plane, in any little detail: wings, fusolage, landing gear, engine … At the end of
In the microcontroller world some things are a bit tricky to do without some help. This can be some code libraries that help us talk to an LCD display, or communicate via some of the new serial protocols such as one wire. Elektronika.ba has done some work to help everyone out who wants to interface a microcontroller to a GSM phone. Thanks for making the English version for us. 🙂
