We don’t know if this will come as a surprise to the regular Hackaday reader, but a whole bunch of Atmel microcontrollers have a very cool feature hidden away in their datasheets. Most of them – ...

These Raspberry Pi Zero projects run continuously, add real functionality to your home, and use almost no power.

When they need to add temperature control to a project, many hackers reach for a K-type thermocouple for their high-temperature needs, or an integrated temperature-sensing IC when it doesn’t get that ...

Thermopile sensors offer a reliable way to measure temperature without physical contact, making them ideal for real-world applications where speed, safety, and precision matter. Whether you are ...

Nowadays, numerous electronic sensor modules are available on the market that can be combined with inexpensive microcontroller boards to measure environmental parameters of importance. The project ...

This project is to prototype a set of self-powered (such as piezoelectric, thermostat, solar, etc) embedded sensor systems for pervasive computing. A tangible exam is a body-temperature powered motion ...

Cornell’s CU GeoData project team brings together engineering and earth science students to design and deploy low-cost ...
