This project from Jon Morris Smith is perfect for UK-based commuters and train enthusiasts. Enthusiasm for trains extends far beyond the vehicles themselves and encompasses everything related to trains. Some people, for example, get really into the protocols and conventions of signaling. Others enjoy the scheduling and the displays that list schedules.

The Centauri Carbon 2 has one problem and that is exposed spools. Now Elegoo is launching a solution: the Elegoo H1 HT filament dryer. I really like the new Elegoo Centauri Carbon 2. It builds on the original Centauri Carbon’s fantastic value and adds a few great features. Among those, CANVAS multi-material printing is the most noteworthy. There is only one problem and that is exposed spools. Now Elegoo is launching a solution: the Elegoo H1 HT filament dryer.

FalconS1 Pro simplifies industrial edge AI with powerful hardware, local processing, and low-code tools to eliminate cloud delays. FalconS1 Pro (πŸ“·: Elliance Sdn Bhd) Industrial AI workloads often require fast, reliable decision-making without relying on cloud connectivity. But bringing these systems online is challenging because many embedded platforms still force developers to stitch together hardware, software, and deployment tools on their own.

Scientists created a forehead patch that tracks the brain’s nightly waste-clearing process at home to advance Alzheimer's research. This patch unobtrusively monitors brain health (📷: J. Kwon et al.) Sleep does more than leave you feeling rested the next morning. While you sleep, your brain activates a waste removal network known as the glymphatic system, flushing away metabolic byproducts that accumulate during the day.

To this day, the Commodore 64 (C64) remains the best-selling single computer model of all time — and it has never really gone away entirely. More than four decades after its release, enthusiasts are still finding new ways to carry this computer into the modern era. The latest example comes in the form of a DIY handheld created by YouTuber Retro Dad, which packs a complete C64 experience into a portable enclosure.

New open-hardware Pocket Reform Standalone Keyboard works with any USB HID-capable host, and looks slick doing it. Open hardware specialist MNT Research, the firm behind the Reform family of laptops and an upcoming ultra-compact desktop, has launched its latest device: a standalone version of the ortholinear keyboard and trackball originally designed for the Pocket Reform.

Digital manufacturing specialist HeyGears has launched a crowdfunding campaign for what it is positioning as the world's first desktop full-color 3D and ultraviolet (UV) printer: the HeyGears G1X. "Most desktop UV printers only print on surfaces or simple textures. They can't create 3D objects from scratch," HeyGears' Peiyan Gui claims of the niche the new device aims to fill.

Initial public release includes "a deliberately focused" dataset including integration compatibility and protocol support. 2 seconds ago • Home Automation / Internet of Things The Open Home Foundation has announced public preview access to its smart home device database — built from real-world information gathered from Home Assistant users who have opted-in to data collection.

SmartMicroOptics, spun out from the Italian Institute of Technology, has announced a follow-up to its smash-hit DIPLE smartphone-powered microscope platform, the DIPLE-E and DIPLE-P — five-lens systems designed to deliver up-to-1,500× magnification on-the-go. "DIPLE-E and DIPLE-P are new optical tools/powerful gadgets for science educators, professionals, science fans of any level," says SmartMicroOptics' Andrea Antonini of the new devices.

As artificial intelligence moves out of the cloud and into vehicles, robots, and industrial equipment, the processors powering those systems are being asked to do much more than traditional embedded chips ever could. They need to run complex AI models locally, drive high-resolution displays, and offer real-time hardware control, all while fitting into compact, power-constrained designs.
