This tiny, inexpensive microcontroller makes it easy to build reliable, room-by-room Home Assistant sensors without paying the smart home tax.

Arduino is a microcontroller designed for real-time hardware control with very low power use. Raspberry Pi is a full computer that runs operating systems and handles complex tasks. Arduino excels at ...

We used to need SBCs for these projects; modern microcontrollers handle them more easily and inexpensively while being easier to maintain.

The Raspberry Pi has brought digital camera experimentation within the reach of everybody, with its combination of an accessible computing platform and some almost-decent camera sensors. If ...

The Onvis CS2 isn't just a contact sensor. With a 120dB siren, Thread support, and climate tracking, it's a 4-in-1 security ...

Yikes. The memory shortage is so bad that Raspberry Pi is raising prices for the second time in two months by as much as $60. The price hikes affect the company’s generally low-cost computers, which ...

Abstract: This paper presents the design, implementation, and performance evaluation of AI-Enhanced Pi-Home, an edge-AI-based smart home automation system integrating multimodal input recognition, ...

Abstract: Accurate low-humidity detection is vital for applications such as lithium battery manufacturing, heritage preservation, and microelectronic packaging, yet current sensors face low ...
