In the distant year of 2021, the days of the old-fashioned laptop are long gone and a new class of portable computer reigns supreme: the cyberdeck...
Lorraine builds a voice-locked prize box using a Raspberry Pi, servo, microphone and speaker recognition. A hands-on project exploring voice authentication, hardware...
Lorraine hacks a Bluetooth-controlled LEGO train in this week’s episode of element14 Presents, mounting a track system to the ceiling of her home. She integrates CircuitPython...
Clem quite often used very powerful microcontrollers in his projects, maybe even too powerful for the job. This time, he is getting himself into shallow power waters...
Welcome back to element14 presents ! In this exciting episode, Lorraine takes on the challenge of making the Eye of Sauron move using LEGO, Raspberry Pi, and machine...
In this project, Mark builds a simple but effective RFID-based access control system using an ESP32 and MFRC522 reader. The system can be programmed to recognise a specific...
Clem takes a vintage Z-scale train controller and rebuilds it using modern electronics to achieve smooth, precise speed control. By analysing the original transformer...
In this project, Milos converts a manual IKEA Trotten desk into a fully motorised standing desk using a 12V drill motor, quadrature encoder feedback and an ESP32 for...
Setting up a Raspberry Pi 5 for the first time? In this step-by-step guide, Natasha walks through everything you need to get started, from choosing the right microSD...
Clem introduces the "Blooper", USB Looper, a modern null-modem style tool for UART debugging, device emulation and file transfer without a network. See how it logs serial...
In this project, Clem builds GimmeGPIO, a compact USB-to-GPIO board that brings Raspberry Pi–style GPIO to almost any computer. Using an ESP32-S2 and a Pi-compatible...
In this episode, Clem walks through his new electronics workbench and explains why he chose each part of the setup, from the adjustable desk and fume extraction to power...
In this project, Milos builds a mobile smart cabinet for his 3D printer, filament dryer, tools, and filament storage, combining workshop organisation with safety and...
Pat takes a practical look at Bluetooth 6.0 channel sounding using Nordic’s nRF54L15 DK, breaking down how RTT, phase-based ranging, and the new sounding packets behave...
Mark takes you through the full build of a DIY pulse induction metal detector and explains the principles behind how it detects metal. He covers the electronics design...
