Fast Single-Pixel Camera
Compressed sensing is an new computational technique to extract large amounts of information from a signal. Researchers from Rice University, for example, have built a camera that can generate 2D-images using only a single light sensor (‘pixel’) instead of the millions of pixels in...

Raspberry Pi Publishing MQTT Messages to ESP8266
Rui @ randomnerdtutorials.com tipped us with his latest tutorial. He writes: In this project you’ll create a standalone web server with a Raspberry Pi that can toggle two LEDs from an ESP8266 using MQTT protocol. You can replace those LEDs with any output (like a relay that...
