The Z80 is one of those old CPUs that is both obtainable and easy to work with — at least in some versions. [Doctor Volt] put together what may be the simplest possible setups to get a working Z80 system. He has the processor, of course. But everything…

If you’re building a CNC machine from scratch, the number of decisions you have to make is nearly boundless. Metal or wood construction? Welded or bolted? Timing belts or lead screws? And even once the mechanical bits are sorted, you still face a universe of choices in terms…

Watching the advancement of technology is interesting enough by looking at improved specifications for various components as the years go by. But clock speeds, memory size, and power consumption are all fairly intangible compared to actual implementation of modern technology when compared to days of yore. For example,…

Active aero – parts of cars which move to mechanically change aerodynamics on the fly – can now be a feature of any car you want thanks to an Arduino and some elbow grease. This has been proven by Michael Rechtin who recently published a video of him…

It is pretty well-known that I’m not a big fan of the Arduino infrastructure. Granted, these days you have more options with the pro IDE and Platform IO, for example. But the original IDE always gives me heartburn. I realized just how much heartburn the other day when…

Home News (Image credit: Tom’s Hardware) Raspberry Pi vs Arduino: a timeless battle between two of the big hitters in the single board computer and microcontroller worlds. But which board do you really need? It isn’t as simple as which one is the best, cheapest, or most powerful.…

The system is described as a Garden Habitat Data Pipeline, no less, and it helps you keep a watchful, and maybe remote, eye on your plants. The essential parts, aside from the Arduino UNO Wifi, are the Soil Moisture Sensor and a Temperature and Humidity Sensor. You can…
