New M5StickC PLUS, one of the core devices in the M5Stack series, is a mini IoT development board powered by ESP32-PICO-D4 with Bluetooth 4.0 and WiFi.  The M5StickC Plus development board was designed to take away a lot of stress off the development process. What can it do? The...

Hayri Uygur is set to launch his new product: a tiny, breadboard-friendly and open-source Arduino-compatible development board, aptly-named Tiny1284P. The Tiny1284P development board is built around the high-performance low cost ATmega1284P-AU 8-bit microcontroller that combines 16KB of...

Arduino and others have produced quite a number of Arduino-compatible boards with small form factors, but most of them are not compatible with standard shields and other platform niceties. Instead, they end up being just breakout boards for the microcontroller. On the other hand of...

Shenzhen based computer hardware manufacturer, Beelink, recently teased the release of a series of new Mini PCs top of which was the Beelink Gemini M, an ultra-thin Mini PC powered by the Intel Celeron J4125 processor running with 8GB of RAM. Featuring an ultra-thin aluminum enclosure...

LED Bar graphs are one of the best ways to provide visual feedback to users in projects where using a screen might be an overkill. Especially in projects where you need to indicate level, intensity, and other values that are worth representing on a bar graph. The quality of LED bar...

One of the good things about being a maker is the power it gives you to create your own stuff. Believing USB devices have not lived up to their designation of truly being universal and working irrespective of the kind of ports they are plugged into, Hackaday user, Neutrino, recently...

Thanks to the increased popularity of the recent ATtiny series of microcontrollers, there has been an increase in the number of open-source UPDI programmers out there. We have covered quite a number of them including the brilliant UPDI programmer compatible with Arduino IDE but we...

Further strengthening the Arduino IoT ecosystem, Arduino last week announced the release of the Arduino IoT Cloud Remote app, which was designed to serve as a mobile companion for the Arduino IoT cloud. The Arduino IoT Cloud created an easy, fast, robust, and secure way for users to...
