Chhavi is a tiny, wireless, touch capacitive fingerprint sensor with high-end security features, support for ultra-low power operation and optional NFC connectivity. Its open source firmware is fully compatible with the Arduino IDE. Chhavi is powered by ESP32 and features an FPC BM-Lite fingerprint sensor by Fingerprints, giving you and your projects access to the excellent biometric hardware found in many smartphones. Unlike optical fingerprint sensors that are large and power-hungry, this capacitive biometric sensor is small, accurate, and energy-efficient. During our design process, we determined that NFC communication would be a powerful feature for many of the same applications that might require a high-quality fingerprint sensor, but we could not find a major ESP32-driven NFC controller. So we built one into Chhavi as an optional feature. We've also added an optional battery to simplify installation and facilitate mobile deployment. The result is a tiny device with a cutting-edge fingerprint reader, Wi-Fi and Bluetooth capabilities, as well as support for NFC and battery power when needed.
Hamster Mix is a portable MIDI controller powered by Arduino that connects to MIDI via Bluetooth. It allows you to control effects and play MIDI notes in 5 octaves. Twelve keys and the ability to switch up and down through the octave make it easy to control the notes of an entire keyboard piano using our compact controller (about the size of a hamster). Hamster Mix connects to Mac, PC, Ipad and even mobile phones via Bluetooth. You can control any MIDI-enabled music program such as Ableton, Garage Band, FL Studio, Reaper, etc. Two additional buttons and two potentiometers allow you to set up your own custom effects. You can even use the buttons as a Bluetooth track launcher instead of a keyboard. You can control MIDI-enabled mobile applications such as GarageBand, FL Studio Mobile, Reason Compact, Audiokit Synth One, Moog applications, and more. Make music on the go with Hamster Mix, which fits in your pocket, meaning no wires or bulky equipment.
HiPo is a 3.52-inch e-paper display module the size of a business card. Content is uploaded via NFC via a convenient app, no batteries required. The development board can compile different display functions by editing the code.
ANT BBPS displays voltage, current and power on an OLED display. It features digitally controlled current limit, wide input voltage range and up to 12 V DC output. It also has two input connections, a USB type-C connector and a screw terminal. A USB input means a battery pack can easily be used as your power source, and the screw terminals allow any other input source to be connected, such as AA and 9 V batteries, or even that old 7 V wall adapter you might have lying around.
The standby time is acceptable and in good condition, more than 7 days.
Plant Bot is an open source project based on ESP32 that allows a single PCB to perform the functions of detecting humidity, watering, providing lighting, and controlling and communicating with the user via WiFi/BLE.
The WiFi remote control is based on ESP32 Pico D4 MCU and 160x80 pixel mini TFT display. Additionally, there are onboard I2C temperature and humidity sensors and an accelerometer.
Somu is a small FIDO2 security key that you can use with your Google, Twitter, and GitHub accounts for two-factor authentication, or with your Microsoft account for passwordless login.
Battery-operated fluorescent lighting projects often appeared in hobby electronic magazines in the 1980s. I always thought that fluorescent lamps were devices that only used AC power at that time. Those articles about using batteries to light miniature fluorescent lamps attracted me. I made some fluorescent lights, but I couldn't get good practical use out of them from a lamp efficiency and longevity perspective. That's because I was just reading the article and knew nothing about the theory of discharge lamps or even electronics. I don't know what to change to get good results, and I'm losing interest in it. However I found a battery powered fluorescent light project online that was identical to the schematic I was working on. So I "revived" the project after 30 years with modern driver circuits and correct theory.
Grapevines use a lot of water and the soil dries out quickly, so they need to be watered twice a day. This project is about using an unmanned watering system to water flower pots.
SYZYGY is an FPGA extension standard for medium to high speed interfaces. This design is a breakout board for connecting dual Atto320 LWIR sensors. Designed to mate with existing sensor breakout boards that provide FFC connectivity.
SYZYGY is an FPGA extension standard for medium to high speed interfaces. This design breaks out all 32 I/O pins into taps with 0.1" headers. A small prototyping area is also provided.
The project is a small desktop-level robot tool that can be used to help you control your computer, etc. Its functions can be defined by you. The inspiration for the appearance design is EVE in WALL-E~ The robot has a USB communication display screen function, has 6 degrees of freedom (one roll and pitch for the hand, one for the neck, and one for the waist), and uses its own modified special servo to support the joints Angle return.
Arduino® Nicla Vision is a ready-to-use standalone camera for analyzing and processing images at the edge. It's suitable for asset tracking, object recognition and predictive maintenance thanks to its 2MP color camera, smart 6-axis motion sensor, integrated microphone and distance sensor. Quickly implement sensor nodes that send collected data to the Arduino® Cloud (or third-party vendor service) via integrated WiFi/BLE connectivity.
Ported the 3D rotation + meteor shower background demo to H7, and the pure rendering is very smooth.
icebreaker++ is a very nice and convenient little board. But it has a small flaw, the ice40 FPGA it uses is very simple, and it's generally fun to see people doing exciting projects with 5k LUTs. Sometimes it's convenient to have some extra space available when experimenting.
Mega-Cube is a light cube that drives 4096 LEDs based on PL9823. The main control is Teensy4.0 based on NXP i.MXRT1060 FlexIO function and many 595 shift registers. It can control up to 32 channels, each channel 1000 LED.
The product design is open source and very cool and beautiful.
