This post is a wishlist for CircuitPython in 2025. Each year Adafruit asks the community to contribute their thoughts or requests for the open source microcontroller language as outlined on the Adafruit blog. In 2025 I would like a library for working with vectors, similar to that of p5.js Vector. Early this year I spent… Continue reading CircuitPython in 2025
Recently Microsoft released the open 3D generation software Trellis. I decided to try a few tests as reviews had been quite favourable with results creating 3D models with “AI”. The website describes the technology as unified Structured LATent (SLAT) representation and there is a demo page to try it out.https://trellis3d.github.io/ I chose an image-to-3D example,… Continue reading Generative 3D Modeling
Often inviting. This terrain just off the Whistler peak road can be an enticing sun-swept run of untouched powder.Understanding that you need to come back up the same way you go down, can make you question if it’s really worth it.Know before you go.

In the autumn of 1892, two miners, Earl and Edward, found themselves high in the Pacific Northwest mountains, searching for a legend as old as the hills: the lost crate of gold. The tale of “Shining Creek Gold” was whispered in every saloon from Seattle to San Francisco, a cache of gold bars rumored to… Continue reading Gold and Ghosts

John Siracusa: Apple Turnover From virtue comes money, and all other good things. This idea rings in my head whenever I think about Apple. It’s the most succinct explanation of what pulled Apple from the brink of bankruptcy in the 1990s to its astronomical success today. Don’
Interactions in mixed reality are a challenge. Nobody wants to hold bulky controllers and type by clicking on big virtual keys one at a time. But people also don’t want to carry around dedicated physical keyboard devices just to type every now and then. That’s why a team of computer scientists from China’s Tsinghua University […] The post A single RGB camera turns your palm into a keyboard for mixed reality interaction appeared first on Arduino Blog.
Nintendo's fiscal year just ended on March 31, and their annual results report has some goodies in there I thought were worth shouting out. First up, the company made a lot less money than in the previous year, with 30% lower revenue and 46% lower profits. As someone
Plants of all kinds are quite infamous for their inability to move, and this can be especially problematic for houseplants that rely on consistently sunny locations within a room in order to get enough light. Driven by wanting their plant to have the best possible growing conditions in their north-facing room, GitHub user MarinaXP has […] The post This plant always gets enough sunlight thanks to its robotic legs appeared first on Arduino Blog.
