In this project we convert a neat looking radio into a voice-enabled, interactive storyteller. Future, here we come! The core of the project will be Raspberry Pi. More info The post The Interactive Storytelling Radio appeared first on Open Electronics. The author is Carlo Palumbo Read more
We saw this TLV320 4-channel microphone ADC in an Echo Dot teardown and thought it looked like a handy I2S chip. You can have 4 PDM or analog microphones for input, data comes out on a single stereo I2S channel, with time division multiplexing. Four inputs is better than 2 when using microphones for voice array/location projects. We like that this chip doesn’t need MCLK so it would probably work... Read more
There’s T.J.Rodgers slamming Intel, a new Raspberry Pi 4 starter kit, power outages at UMC fabs, Intel outsourcing production of Core i3 processors and ESA building its modules for the Lunar Gateway… This story continues at Most Read articles – Lunar Gateway, UMC outages, Intel Core i3 Or just coverage at Electronics Weekly Read more
Great project and write-up by High Voltage Fun up on Instructables. I am a member of the local Round Table and each Christmas we take Santa and his sleigh to the streets of Shirley collecting money for local charity’s and give children a chance to meet Santa. This year with Covid restrictions we decided to offer the ability to donate by txt message or online but needed a means to... Read more
Using community sourced materials, Berlin-based installation artist Niklas Roy and interaction designer Felix Fisgus have created the amazing Smart Fairy Tale. Here’s more from Niklas Roy: “Smart Fairy Tale” is a remote controlled story machine. A little red ball rolls through a maze of transparent pipes. Interrupting light barriers along its way, the ball triggers the movements of numerous animatronics. Different track switches inside the pipe system determine the path of... Read more
IMAGE Circuit Basics wants to help you create a webcam server with this guide: A webcam server is a webpage that displays the output of an IP camera. Moreover, an IP camera is a device that communicates through an IP network. This means that it receives control data and sends image data using the network created by the router. A webcam server can be accessed by the devices connected to... Read more
The endlessly generous musician and DIYer over at LOOK MUM NO COMPUTER has transplanted a Furby brain into a computer case to create a facial recognition robot both comic and terrifying. Check it out from LOOK MUM NO COMPUTER. Read more
Fun project from Tyler Suard up on Hackster.io. I decided to wait until technology was available to make my air-guitar moves actually make sound. Recently, Pose Estimation technology was unearthed from the ancient ruins of Mesopotamia, and I had my opportunity. . Each Friday is PiDay here at Adafruit! Be sure to check out our posts, tutorials and new Raspberry Pi related products. Adafruit has the largest and best selection... Read more
Soil moisture sensors are cheap and easy to interface with, to the point that combining one with an Arduino and blinking an LED when your potted plant is feeling a bit parched is a common beginners project. But what about on the long term? Outside of a simple proof of concept, what would it take to actually read the data from these sensors over the course of weeks or months?... Read more
