There are a ton of inexpensive RF transceiver boards available. [Martin] just recently took a look at a number of of the most typical ones as well as reports back on what you want to look for when acquiring wireless hardware for your projects.
Ikea photo frame plus old laptop equals a roll-your-own digital photo frame which [Victor] built. It runs Ubuntu as well as is much more powerful as well as extensible than anything you might purchase outright.
Our buddy [HowToLou] sure loves the FlowRider. So much to ensure that he’s trying to figure out exactly how to make them less costly to operate. He put together an example of exactly how he thinks a standing wave can be created that follows the rider as they relocation along the surfing area.
[Garrett] released an Arduino library that provides threading, debugging, as well as error handling. The usertools bundle can be downloaded from his Github repository.
There’s only one method to gauge your Christmas cheer — hook yourself up to the XMeter built by [Geoff]. He’s the exact same man who built a breathalyzer a couple of years back. It flashes images of holiday activities on a television while measuring galvanic reaction utilizing a couple of diy probes.
And finally, play around with a virtual x86 system. [Fabian Hemmer] wrote the extremely full-featured virtual device in JavaScript. You can get your hands on the code through his GitHub repo. [Thanks Martin]
