We went to Geo Week to see what all the future of PNT tech looks like!
After three amazing years, and with parts purchased straight from SparkFun, the Mars Ingenuity Helicopter makes its final flight.
Four new dToF Qwiic Imagers using two different chip sets from AMS are now available!
The new Qwiic VL53L5CX ToF Imager is here with our last two Alphanumeric Display options, as well as an Ethernet Kit for Teensy 4.1.
A closer look at the open-source technology NASA has deployed on the tiny Martian helicopter
At SparkFun, we’ve worked with numerous drone companies to help them find GPS, distance sensing, tracking and communication, and other hardware to meet their needs.
Recently, a team from the St. Vrain Innovation Center assembled its first custom PCB design with the help of SparkFun. This is the story behind their project and their experience.
Next Fall's AVC is starting to take shape. We've seen the future, and the future is... GOATS!
What has Pete been up to? Playing with flying robots, actually.
A guest post from Bill Premerlani regarding the new firmware updates for the MatrixPilot Project and the UDB5.
Sweeping legal changes are afoot that could change the hobbyist airspace for years to come. Your input can make a difference.
We really want to do a fun and amazing project here in Engineering and want to know your thoughts.
Check out this brief recap from the fine folks at 3D Robotics
You need to reflash the firmware - see: https://github.com/sparkfun/SparkFun_DataLogger/issues/3 Once you flash using that command, you can…
I think I just overwrite the DataLogger IoT firmware was doing firmware update and accidently hit Arduino script file, instead of cool term…
Thanks for the great description! I hadn't even been aware of the existance of NNSS, though in the mid 1980s, I'd looked at LORAN-C for a…
Thanks for the L band sharing !
Over the years, I've been pretty vocal about wanting on-board RTCs, with at least the possibility of connecting something like a coin…
Not only does VBAT supply the RTC, but there’s also battery-backed RAM onboard too! With the amount of space available on the Thing Plus…
Interesting... it sort of covers one of my "hot buttons", that is having an RTC. In looking at the schematic, I noticed that the "BAT"…
But Social Engineer's LOVE him. Good job catching so many of the buttons social manipulators use, but I nearly thought Sparkfun was off…
There's a disclaimer at the very end, hopefully that's enough to keep people from attempting. Glad you liked it!
Wow great blog!
