If you want to jazz up your tv with an Ambilight system now might be the time. We have seen other systems in the past that were impressive but not as good as this system. This new system is still a bit kludgy but seems to work very well and is nice and flexible to work with most systems. The Raspberry Pi Zero running Hyperion is the heart of the system and
In the near future when autonomous vehicles are buzzing around they will need to have some method of charging themselves. ARMdevices.net interviewed Kevin Leary from Power Hydrant who has a solution to this issue. With this system an electric vehicle will be able to have this system detect the vehicle type and have the robot charging arm connect power automatically. This is done by having the various types of electric vehicles modeled in
Adarsh Jayakumar, Timon Amirani and Cameron Boroumand developed a Super Secure 4 Factor Lock Box Project for their Cornell University ECE 4760 final project. It uses a typed code, 3 pots set to a specific value, a knock sensor and a finger printer sensor. All they need now is a iris scan! Of course this box is built out of something that can be smashed into with ease and the electronics
I am not a car repair guy but I have been enjoying the South Main Auto Repair channel. He uses lots of high tech and low tech to get the job done. The Snap On automotive testing system he is using is the tool for the job! It has tons of data in it for troubleshooting and it is also a digital scope (you can see it in use
Kevin Hou built a Wood Turned Bowl with Inlaid Letters as one of his final high school projects.  He used sketchup for design the bowl and common power tools to bring it to life. His school has a very well equipped shop, most of the build was created with conventional woodworking tools except for the letters which was cut out on a CNC machine. The build took 60 hours and was
Samy Kamkar had built a device that is called Poison Tap. It is a Raspberry Pi Zero which plugs into the victims USB port. The device that looks like an Ethernet connection, your computer inherently trusts this connection and this is where the exploit starts. ” emulates an Ethernet device over USB (or Thunderbolt) hijacks all Internet traffic from the machine (despite being a low priority/unknown network interface) siphons and
Tinkernut took a vintage camera and smoshed it together with some mini technology to re purpose it. A Raspberry Pi, camera module, WIFI module and screen is used as the wireless camera. The completed system sends each captured picture to the cloud. The code is very basic but turns this device into a robust IOT device that is fully functional.
