Smartphones in recent times have contributed to the growth of the medical sensing industries with a major success in the usage of a smartphone camera and flash to detect heart rate. Specialized Apps installed on the phone can use the phone inbuilt camera and flash to read an individual heart rate with high accuracy but […]
L20G20IS Gyroscope: The secret behind the perfect picture
https://www.electronics-lab.com/l20g20is-gyroscope-secret-behind-perfect-picture/
STMelectronics introduces a super tiny two-axis gyroscope (L20G20IS), a Micro-Electro-Mechanical system (MEMS) designed for the optical image stabilization for Smartphones with less energy consumption compared to its predecessor (L2G2IS). A gyroscope, or gyro for short, adds an additional dimension to the information supplied from the accelerometer by tracking rotation or twist. An accelerometer measures linear acceleration of movement, while […]

The ‘Pi Desktop’ kit from element14 offers some great features like Wi-Fi, Bluetooth, a real-time clock, an interface for an mSATA-SSD hard drive, an optional camera, heat sink, a neat power switch and of course the sleek black case. [via] The Raspberry Pi is a well designed, powerful and inexpensive board, but not a complete […]
Fast Single-Pixel Camera
https://www.electronics-lab.com/fast-single-pixel-camera/
Compressed sensing is an new computational technique to extract large amounts of information from a signal. Researchers from Rice University, for example, have built a camera that can generate 2D-images using only a single light sensor (‘pixel’) instead of the millions of pixels in the sensor of a conventional camera. This compressed sensing technology is […]
Raspberry Pi Security System

Using a mini spy camera module, Ruiz Brothers had built a tiny portable camera that is used to take time-lapse videos and for all sorts of photo based projects. This project consists of these parts with an estimated cost of $39: Mini Spy Camera Module ($12.50) Adafruit Trinket (3V or 5V MicroUSB Version!) ($6.95) 100mAh […]
facetVISION: Compound Eyes for Industry and Smartphone
https://www.electronics-lab.com/compound-eyes-for-smartphone/
Researchers at the Fraunhofer Institute for Applied Optics and Precision Engineering IOF have developed a process that makes the production of a two-millimeter flat camera possible. Similar to the eyes of insects, its lens is partitioned into 135 tiny facets. The researchers have named their mini-camera concept facetVISION, following nature’s model. This mini-camera has a thickness […]
Dintervalometer, A Custom Made Intervalometer For DSLR Cameras
https://www.electronics-lab.com/dintervalometer/
If you want to take a timelapse with your camera, it may be helpful to use an intervalometer. It is an attachment or facility on a camera that operates the shutter regularly at set intervals over a period, in order to take timelapse series or take pictures after a set delay. Daniel Knezevic had developed […]
