SoM (Crowdfunding)


APER-OCULUS IS AN OPEN-SOURCE CAMERA DEVELOPMENT BOARD FOR AMD XILINX’S KRIA SOM
(CROWDFUNDING)



The Aper-Oculus board is an open-source hardware camera carrier board for the
AMD Xilinx Kria system-on-modules aimed at high-speed computer vision
applications. The carrier board is built around the Sony SLVS-EC (Scalable
Low-Voltage Signaling with Embedded Clock), a high-speed interface standard that
delivers high-resolution video output to the FPGA. It also features several
connectivity options, including dual MIPI connectors, USB 3.0, DisplayPort, and
SATA to accommodate the varying demands of AI and robotics projects. The Kria
K24 and K26 SOMs are adaptive system-on-modules designed for edge and vision
applications. These small modules are ruggedized and come with hardware
acceleration enabled out-of-the-box. The Kria lineup also includes a series of
starter kits, such as the KR260 Robotics Starter Kit, which are designed for
early evaluation and development. Aper-Oculus specifications: Processor-Board
Support – Compatible with AMD Xilinx Kria SOMs Video Interface – SLVS-EC for

5G M.2 to Ethernet and USB “converter” takes M.2 5G PCIe modules


$44 5G M.2 TO ETHERNET AND USB “CONVERTER” TAKES M.2 5G PCIE MODULES



Waveshare “5G M.2 to Gigabit Ethernet converter, 5G M.2 to USB3 converter” is a
single device designed to easily and cheaply add 5G connectivity to a LAN
through a gigabit Ethernet port or to a specific host like a PC or a Raspberry
Pi SBC through a USB 3.1 Type-C port. The 5G M.2 to Ethernet and USB converter
is flexible as by default it does not ship with a 5G module, but features an M.2
Key-B socket for 5G 3042 or 3052 modules allowing it to meet the requirements of
a specific location. 5G M.2 to Ethernet and USB converter key features and
specifications: Cellular M.2 Key B socket for 3042/3052 5G modules from SIMCom

Comment on Review of Blackview MP80 (Processor N97) mini PC with Windows 11 Pro


REVIEW OF BLACKVIEW MP80 (PROCESSOR N97) MINI PC WITH WINDOWS 11 PRO



Blackview MP80 is a tiny pocket-sized mini PC powered by either an Intel Alder
Lake-N Processor N95 or Processor N97 CPU with 16GB LPDDR5 RAM and a 512GB M.2
SSD preloaded with Windows 11 Pro. We’ve already reviewed the Blackview MP80
(N95) mini PC a few months ago, but the company has now sent us the Processor
N97 model for review. Both models look identical with the same ports including
three HDMI 2.0 video outputs, three USB ports, and two gigabit Ethernet ports,
plus a Wi-Fi 5 and Bluetooth 4.2 wireless module. The mini PCs are also actively
cooled, and the only obvious differences are the processor (Intel N95 vs N97)
and the color of the enclosure. We usually do a three-part review with the first
one listing the specs, and going through an unboxing and a teardown, but for the
Blackview MP80 (N97) review we will do those and […]

drone mimics a bird’s flight (Crowdfunding)


THIS NEW X-FLY DRONE MIMICS A BIRD’S FLIGHT (CROWDFUNDING)



Aeronautical engineer Edwin Van Ruymbeke has introduced X-Fly, a drone that
emulates the flight pattern of a bird. The drone communicates via Bluetooth
using the STM32WB15CC microcontroller, has a range of 100 meters, and can fly
for 8-12 minutes with a swappable battery system. The company mentions that they
have collaborated with the French military to develop the flapping wings
mechanism, which incorporates gyroscopes and g-sensors, ensuring a stable
flight. The drone can be controlled with a smartphone app or an attachable
optical joystick and It’s also durable against crashes, has a quick-swap battery
system, and improved wing mechanics for longer flights. We’ve previously covered
drones such as the Qualcomm Flight RB5-based drone Kudrone Nano Drone and some
drone kits like Qualcomm Flight Pro. Feel free to explore these if you’re
interested. Key Features and Specification of X-Fly Drone: Control Board – The
PCB features an STM32WB15CC Bluetooth microcontroller, motor […]

T4-S3 board combines 2.41-inch AMOLED touchscreen display with ESP32-S3R8
microcontroller


LILYGO T4-S3 BOARD COMBINES 2.41-INCH AMOLED TOUCHSCREEN DISPLAY WITH ESP32-S3R8
MICROCONTROLLER



LILYGO T4-S3 is yet another ESP32-S3 board with an integrated display, but the
main difference here is the 2.41-inch AMOLED touchscreen display with brighter
colors than typical TFT displays. It’s actually not the first ESP32-S3 board
with an AMOLED display from LILYGO as we previously covered the T-Track and
T-Display-S3 AMOLED boards from the company, but the new T4-S3 has a larger
2.41-inch display with touchscreen function and an aspect ratio that may make it
more suitable for a wider range of HMI applications.   LILYGO T4-S3
specifications: SoC – Espressif ESP32-S3R8 CPU – Dual-core Tensilica LX7
microcontroller up to 240 MHz with vector instructions for AI acceleration

on GlowStitch LEDs – A machine-sewable LED board for adding lights to wearables
and crafts (Crowdfunding)


GLOWSTITCH LEDS – A MACHINE-SEWABLE LED BOARD FOR ADDING LIGHTS TO WEARABLES AND
CRAFTS (CROWDFUNDING)



GlowStitch LEDs is an innovative new project that is aimed at making
machine-sewable LEDs for wearable tech and special crafts of all forms. The LEDs
are made from flexible circuit boards which makes them sewable with a machine
and usable for various creative projects by makers, cosplayers, fashion
designers, and hobbyists. Until now, sewing LEDs to clothing and soft circuits
(e-textiles) had to be done by hand with conductive thread, an arduous process
that requires a lot of patience. With the GlowStitch LEDs, creative projects can
be prototyped using conductive tape and actualized with a sewing machine. This
project has a focus on education and the kit is designed to be used by makers of
all skill levels. The LED strips can be machine-washed. However, the maker
recommends hand-washing with no tumble dry. The battery should always be removed
before washing. Although this is not a kit that requires coding […]
