John Boxall of Tronixstuff is known for his electronic kit reviews, he recently did a hands on build review of our IR Jammer Kit. You have to love his Fluke meter, if you haven’t seen one of these before you might think it’s a meter the size of a display but it’s actually a normal sized meter with a removable display. This would allow the display be placed in a
Frank has completed the next phase in the Dune Bug E Build, we saw the last build update back in May. It is interesting to see what is involved in making a normal differential into a locked differential, this process allows both rear wheels to always be powered with no slipping. The gearing has also been changed increasing the top speed of the vehicle. “Since the internal gear ratios were
If you have one of these View-Masters you might want to bring it into the modern day, have a look at this LCD Screen Hacked View-Master by Hackerconsortium. Thanks Tuttle “Long gone are the days of light shining through celluloid images on a disk… Long gone! Why this little feller here has Two, count them, 2 Colby 1.5 inch digital key chain picture frames lined up with each lens to
Most of us have seen the game of life, and those programmers among us have probably had to implement this game in code. Windell Oskay and Lenore Edman of Evil Mad Scientists Laboratories have made a huge version of this game for a new exhibit at the San Jose Museum of Art. I can see they got lots of use out of their laser cutter in the making of the
Just stick the barrel of the gun in your ear and pull the trigger. That is how you answer this Bluetooth headset. Not sure you could use this in many places though. We recently had a law pass where I live that made talking on a cell phone and driving illegal. It is legal to use a bluetooth device to talk though. I am thinking that this device would still
Remember the Multimeter Clock article last month? I just got the full build log up. Lots of people wanted the CNC files so that they could cut their own clock, these DXF files are also available on the Multimeter Clock project page. If you want to make your own there’s a kit available. If you missed the video of the clock in action last time here it is again.
Fresh off the assembly line… We have a new kit that is being released today. It’s a universal IR Jammer which can be used to jam any infrared remote control device. The Infrared Remote Control Jammer allows you to render all IR remote controls inoperative! The microcontroller in this design allows for all 6 of the main IR frequencies to be targeted making this unit universal. It works by corrupting
