Concept Video Functional ExplanationUsed ToolsFor EDA we started with PCAD2006 - but to make the Design more accessible I asked a friend to do a conversion to KiCad - as we are trying to use accessible (preferable OpenSource) SW-Tools as much as...

Designing and building the display:About the Bluetooth data transfer:Display PCBs:Two PCBs (left half 8 x 10, right half 8 x 10) designed in KiCad (see files) and Milled into PCB material using my CNC milling machine. Standard green LEDs. The distance...
I absolutely loved the badge but the screen kept getting caught on things, after the first day of KiCon was over I was back home and thought "Hey I have this 3d printer and FreeCAD here, I can probably come up with a quick fix". First I imported the...
This project shows that it is possible to create floating 3D images. Imagine being able to see life-sized (albeit small) models of the item you were buying or a CAD model you were building, or even possibly the face of a loved one in full color...
A friend expressed an interest in implementing a RISC-V processor using an FPGA, something like learn-fpga. Due to the ongoing parts shortage, many of the low-end FPGA dev boards are either out of stock, or have moved out of the pocket change price range....
This is the first of a small group of boards sponsored by PCBway. I don't normally deal with sponsorship people but in the PCBway case all they asked was an honest opinion, and they have a long history of supporting Kicad. The board quality is great,...
PROJECT MOTIVATIONS This project is born from the observation that modern technology that was once only used in the workplace, is now an integral part of the life of occidental individuals. We all carry one or many smartphones but we don't use them only...

We were inspired by IObrizio pin badges and Gustavo Reynaga oshwi and wanted to have a small and simple design to be used as a pendant. We based the design on Kawaii Tech Logo it is our first KICAD project :P We used Inkscape...
This idea origionally came out of Startup Weekend Zimbabwe (we won!) and my team have agreed to let me release this openly rather than try to make money off it. Now that I have working prototypes for both the bluetooth version and the stand-alone one...
All there is to it really is two SMA connectors, the chip itself and a 2.5V linear voltage regulator.Lacking proper RF test gear, the only way for me to see if it works is if I can receive something using a cheap rtl-sdr and a ceramic patch antenna.I...
Inspired by the OpenMV, Pixie, and ZynqBerry Projects, a Zynq based computer vision platform. Combining Zynq 7000 ARM+FPGA SoC, 4K CMOS image sensor, DDR3L memory, and completely integrated power controller, into a standalone integrated hardware computer...
