Radar sensors are not exactly a new thing, but, like every other technology, there is always progress to be made, something that could be improved in order to take the technology to the next level. One of its younger cousins, the mmWave technology, which you may have not heard of until...

So... Odd title, right? Well, not quite! Today we will be analyzing an ambitious idea from Elitegroup Computer Systems (ECS, for short), which takes a Mini-ITX board and shrinks it to half its original size. As a cool concept this is, does it have enough "glue" to stick on everyday's...

Now, from my writing experience here at eLab, I have dealt with some funny and interesting concepts, but nothing quite like what I am about to show you. But bear with me here, aside from the questionably looking electronics you are about to glance, there might be something useful to...

The good thing about Tindie is that allows all of us to creatively showcase and sell our most promising projects. I cannot stress how awesome it is to have such a market online, for our inventions! As a good example of its usefulness, we will glance today at an e-paper watch that has...

As 5G emerges on the market, where smartphones and coverage is becoming more and more common, there is the need to provide us, makers, with the necessary tools to start building some interesting projects with 5G, so that the potential (that we see already) can be expanded even further...

We talk a lot about downsizing. It is, and always will be on the top priority list of the world of electronics. Without smaller sizes, we would never have gotten to this state, where our projects can be housed in a small PCB and ran on an ATTiny mcu. It is one of the most fascinating...

Have you ever had problems with your PCB designs and had to remake any of them after having the "final" prototype in your hand? If you are one of these non-human geniuses that made only masterpiece-like, immaculate PCBs, please, throw the first stone. As we are not, and had to perform...

It is undeniable that a NAS is an unbelievably useful equipment. Even though the cloud is making us question if we need one at times, it is better as a long-term solution, accounting for the higher investment in the beginning. Today, we will look at an ambitious open-source NAS, the...
