Video to oscilloscope
8. June 2008 - 12:20 — adminYet another entry for the scope-abilities list -
These projects offer the ability to convert composite or VGA video signals for oscilloscope display. You'll need a scope with Z/intensity input in addition to the X & Y axes in order to pull this one off.
Parallel Processing Computer
7. June 2008 - 15:07 — adminThis project introduces a computer that uses multiple microcontrollers (MCUs) that cooperate to solve one problem. This “parallel computer” can be used as an educational system that will help the development, understanding and fine-tuning of many parallel algorithms. It can also be used to achieve high performance in many cases such as in Digital Signal Processing.

Hacking the robotic vacuum cleaner
4. June 2008 - 14:59 — adminSee the interesting things you can do with a robotic vacuum cleaner.
68000 home computer
1. June 2008 - 1:06 — adminYou grab a Motorola 68HC000 32 bit mcu, some knowledge, you mix them together and you should get a 32-bit power single board computer. The chip is quite old but there are many chip makers still produce it.
