Most embedded projects don’t stay simple for long. You start with a microcontroller (MCU), reading sensors and controlling outputs. Then you add connectivity, maybe a user interface, maybe even AI. At that point, a single MCU...

AI video generation may be impressive on a technical level, but typing out a prompt doesn’t exactly feel like creative work. Hun Han wondered how he could make that more of a collaborative experience and that led him to develop...

SCION has both supporters and critics, but it faces a major challenge: Replacing BGP while competing in an environment where network decisions are driven more by carrier costs than by strategic priorities. Read more here:...

The HAUI 3Gang Touch Display is a wall-mount smart home control dashboard designed specifically to run Home Assistant, OpenHAB, Domoticz, or any other web-based home automation dashboard. Built around a Raspberry Pi 3B+ since...

On May 5, 2026, at roughly 19:30 UTC, DENIC, the registry operator for the .de country-code top-level domain (TLD), started publishing incorrect DNSSEC signatures for the .de zone. Any validating DNS resolver receiving these...

What if your students could build a working biomedical prototype from scratch – one that explains human digestion, gas diffusion, sensor calibration, and programming all at once? That’s exactly what happened at ITTS “E. Divini”...

MiixKey is a compact, offline ESP32-P4-based hardware security key and password manager that securely stores passwords, passkeys, NFC cards, and smart card credentials in a single portable device. It features a 2-inch...

Toradex Zinnia is an industrial IoT gateway based on the company’s Verdin system-on-module, powered by a choice of NXP or Texas Instruments SoC, with dual Gigabit Ethernet, WiFi 5, Bluetooth 5, optional 4G LTE or 5G...

There’s a lot of hype around the Rust programming language, and I’m seeing it being adopted by various projects, not least the Linux kernel. However, so far it was unclear to me whether it was suitable for embedded firmware...

In the classic Ship of Theseus thought experiment, we’re led to wonder if a ship is still the same ship after all of its parts have been replaced. But we might need to rename that to the “Robot of Boomba,” after Lucas completely...

In 2021, I was developing software for an aerospace manufacturer and met with our machine learning team to discuss innovative approaches for tracking FOD (free-orbiting debris), a major security and operational concern in the...

Have DNSSEC-validating recursive resolvers updated their Trust Anchor sets to include KSK-2024, and how can we measure whether this transition has been successfully adopted? Read more here:...
