Most of you probably know me already , I'm @sulfuroid , the mad doc who never sleeps with over 150 github projects so far., the creator of various BLaK-RPI cyberdecks. (Sharpikeebo, BlakRPI 2K, BlakRPI Clive). This is my last and curret...
As my pint of commercial etchant reached the end of its useful life I began to wonder if I could make my own. The commercial stuff works well enough, but it costs an arm and a leg. I paid $20 for 500 ml (that's about pint for you non metric folks). Plus...
There seems to be a need for stand-alone step-up and step-down DC/DC converters in Radio Controlled aircraft. I'm thinking about possibly making a long range quad copter that runs on a single Li-Ion 18650 battery. Unfortunately, most FPV cameras and...
What a drift car is capable of out of the box and how it works, I showed in the first part of my video. What a drift machine is capable of: -The charge of the native battery is enough for 10 minutes, after 7 minutes the car just drives without drifting;...
How does it work Starting with a central location, a destination at specific distance is randomly calculated with a trigonometry formula. Having an origin and destination, walking directions are requested to Google Maps API. At this point feet starts...
Step 1: Gather the Supplies Getting electronics supplies online can be a bit worrisome because you do not know if the components / modules you purchased are in working condition or not. So to erase these doubts I recommend UTSource.net for...
RTL8710 can be programmed by GCC or some commercial compiler as summarised by realtek. As same, binary upload can be done by two ways, SWD or JTAG. Before jumping into making something by myself, I bought RTL-Ameba board based on RTL8195 in order to...
Note: If code pasted from the "instructions" complains about strange characters, copy first to some plain text editor, remove those strange characters, which are hopefully visible there, and then copy&paste from there. Hackaday has the automatic feature...
Micro controller and logging The readily available and cost effective Arduino UNO was used as the logging device micro controller. However using only the Arduino and exernal sensors poses two problems. Firstly the internal EEPROM is only 1024 bytes....
Al Williams will host the Hack Chat on Wednesday, March 2 at noon Pacific. Time zones got you down? Try our handy time zone converter. Many of us probably remember -- some fondly, some less so -- our first encounter with a truth table. The little grid...

References to earlier prototypes have been popping up ever since I ruthlessly slit DVI cables to force DIL8s onto some of their pins a decade ago:https://www.google.com/search?q=EDID+InserterSurprisingly the EDID Inserter hasn't become an off-the-shelf...
Please Don't Like or Follow This Project -- There is a newer/better version: The Ultimate Single Cell Lithium UPS for Raspberry PI (U1LiUPSRPi). Check it out.I started out trying to modify the super capacitor UPS system, but it quickly became apparent...
This project is sponsored and supported by JLCPCB - Manufacturer of Printed Circuit Board and offers 5 free PCBs of Arduino Compatible Board. For this project, we'll use the JLCPCB Arduino Compatible printed circuit board presented below. Figure...
An experiment in accurate timekeeping In late 2022 ZeptoBars shared an approach in the Sensor Watch community to boost that watch's accuracy through fine calibration and dithered error correction in software. This triggered my curiosity: can I reduce...
