A lot of the questions we field are related to accomplishing something cheaper via DIY. Until recently, chances of succeeding were variable, but things are starting to change.
In this Enginursday, we'll explore some of the problems that can creep up when connecting I2C devices
Amazon has released an example allowing you to create an Alexa endpoint on a Raspberry Pi 3 (or 2B). It's free and open source, so you can tear it apart, see how it works and modify it as you see fit!
This post explores how to use the power control features of the Battery Babysitter to make a product with the features we expect from portable embedded electronics.
As I've been on location the past couple months attached to a secret project, I decided this week's build was going to be a motion detector I could use in the field.
The market for connectors is enormous. Let's discuss how to find the connector that works for you.
