It's a casual Friday here on the blog. We're celebrating 20 years of SparkFun this year! Throughout all that time, a collection of couches has accumulated in our HQ, and we wanted to test them all out to see where the *best* couch in the building is. Join us!
We're switching things up today with a post that highlights some of the resourceful and inspirational projects we've seen on Hackster lately.
Correction data is used in surveying and navigation to enhance the accuracy of GNSS. Learn here about what types of errors it fixes, how you can use correction data in your projects, and the difference between DGNSS, RTK, SBAS, and PPP
We are thrilled to announce the launch of a comprehensive guide to hardware and software in Edge AI. This report aims to be the guide to everything on Edge AI hardware & software in this emerging sector.
In our latest video, we show you different methods on how to achieve millimeter-level accuracy with our lineup of RTK-capable products.
SparkFun's Qwiic Connect System has had a busy week being added to the new Experiential Robotics Platform, BeaglePlay, and Arduino Portenta C33!
We are so excited to finally reveal this kit to everyone who may want to pick one up! It is a comprehensive introduction to robotics that includes an easy-to-assemble hardware kit, coding environment, and online modules.
SparkFun CTO Kirk Benell provides a high-level introduction to the SparkFun DataLogger IoT, outlining the major functionality the product provides. Learn here about its interactive menu, next-level software, and what you need to know to get started.
This week, we are happy to announce our newest MicroMod Processor featuring the STM32WB5MMG. We also take another look at Arduino's newest UNO R4 boards!
We've just released a guide to connecting to UNAVCO reference stations so you can follow along step-by-step!
The RTK Reference Station was released yesterday, but we will talk a little more about it today, along with two new BMI270 6DoF IMU boards!
Our newest tutorial will show you how to quickly monitor your Bluetooth data at a glance using a live python graph, an OLED, or through a phone app.
SparkX's new Qwiic Visible Spectrum Emitter is now available with a 10-Way Terminal & Socket.
SparkFun is 20 this year! We're lucky to have a bunch of employees that have been around for over half of those years, and we wanted to share their reflections on their time here with you. Today you'll be hearing from Pearce Melcher, who's part of the engineering department and has been here for 15 years!
Learn to create custom-shaped PCBs and silk screens for a more dynamic look to your project!
We have two new environmental sensors that feature the SCD4x line from Sensirion as well as a wide-angle lens version of the RPi Camera Module 3 NoIR!
It's SparkFun's 20th anniversary! Today you'll be hearing from Pete Lewis, a SparkFun employee and engineer who's been here for over 15 years.
