There are many companies providing a range of multimeters starting from very cheap to some thousand. I think it depends on the need, work and level of accuracy needed in circuit design. Here I will cover some features and price to performance ratio difference...
Most modular rail systems for cameras use the standard 15mm tubing 6cm spacing measured from the heart of the tubes. If I wanted anything modular and compatible with off-the-shelf stuff like matte-boxes or follow focus rings, that should be the foundation,...
Hardware:The hardware of the scanner consist of two mechanical parts:1. The paper insertThe paper insert is a simple shaft with some rubber attached so the paper moves along with it if it rotates. The shaft is rotated by a standard small stepper motor(28BYJ-48)....
N+ IS EVERY SHOE YOU NEED Cycling shoes cost a fortune, and serve a very specific fit and function. I wanted to make an alternative to consumer shoes that could be produced using a 3D printer, sewing machine and other readily available bits. The...
Development platform sometime requires display like the Raspberry Pi or the Beagle Bone Black. Using full desktop screen takes space on overcrowded developers desk.There are small screen available on the market like Lilliput monitors. Some displays are...
This is more of a sub-hack which ultimately was due to me crossing some USB D+ and D- lines on another project, breadWare (now called Jumperless.) This hack didn't actually help solve that problem but it's pretty nifty to have. I was troubleshooting...
The challenge / opportunity: Getting a source of clean power anywhere in the world through regular usage in life.Inspiration:In the past I have seen projects designed to gather energy from fixed locations.... for example pressure tiles in a subway designed...
This started as an ATV build using big tires with the hope of using rubber tracks made from a treadmill. But over time it evolved into converting my very fast (30mph+) go kart. Originally, a differential was planned so that I could use differential braking...

TinyUsbHacker consists of two parts. The first one is the MK20 cortex m4 of NXP and the second one is microSDcard.I designed it to be as discrete as possible: it has the same dimension as wireless mouse receiver.Planned Features:Place all Components...
Many folks that use HP calculators of yore like to be able to use the infrared printer. These printers are really expensive given what they are, and some folks in a separate forum wondered if a workalike could be crafted from cheap printer cores from...
The Prius rear hatch release switch is covered with some sort of black rubber that deteriorates with exposure to weather. Mine had gone through the usual phases of first getting sticky and gooey, leaving black yuck on my fingers every time I used...
Tipper Tipper predicts if a pitch will be in or out of the strike zone in real time. The batter will see a green or red light illuminate in their peripheral vision if the pitch will be in or out of the strike zone, respectively. Higher resolution video...
The animatronics are controlled by a comedian thanks to some face-tracking software I wrote. The code uses Google's TensorFlow and their FaceMesh model to easily measure how wide open the comedian's mouth is, and how raised their eyebrows are. Then,...
The firmware is in an external socketed OTP EPROM, so it was easy to unplug and read. Note this is not under the glass, so you can easily change it.The electronics are under the FVD glass so I had to remove. Not easy, as there are many pins, and it is...
