Dear #Lazyweb : if you had a small device (25x30mm) that was designed to run off 5v or 3v3, and you learned far too late that one user wants to run it off 12v, what would you do? ( I’ve shoehorned in an AMS1112 in similar circumstances before and that works but is not kind to the environment) Smallest 12->5 reg reasonably efficient and good for 300mA? #IoT #AskFedi #DontSay7805 #OhGodIts7805IsntIt

Big News! #Semtech announced their 4th gen #LoRa chip, and they specifically mentioned #meshtastic! It’s truly exciting to be recognized at this level! We can’t wait to get hardware that supports this chip.

Haven’t done a fun #maker project in a while I wanted to spice up my background in videos, so I built this We’ll see how it looks when I film next! #electronics #esp32 #Arduino #IoT #microcontroller

There are things out there like the Works With Home Assistant badging program for things that work with #hass but we also want to know what doesn't work so we don't waste time and money on them.

If you've run across a IOT device that doesn't work with Home Assistant, or works poorly with it (like requiring a cloud service to control a device on your home LAN), please submit it to https://github.com/unixorn/internet-of-trash so I can add it to the list.

Thanks!

I need to find a plug that I can remotely operate via the internet. It should work via wifi. It would be nice if it were actually secure and not some massive security hole in the network. It would be used to power cycle a Raspberry Pi periodically when the Raspberry Pi crashes and I can't get to it in person for weeks at a time.

We are the Ariel OS project: developing an operating system for embedded systems in Rust, for a safer #IoT.

We just published our first 0.1 release, with which we already enable building portable multi-core applications on Cortex-M, RISC-V and ESP32 devices, using different link-layer and application layer networking protocols, including out-of-the-box secure communication.

https://ariel-os.org/ has all the links to examples, manual and API docs.

An Leute mit Interesse bzgl. #InternetOfThings: Wir (#GardenaDigitalHub, #Embedded #Software #Meetup #Zürich) haben noch viele Plätze frei am 27. Februar: https://www.meetup.com/embedded-software/events/305485014/

If you have access to an #ESP32 and a WiFi network with WPA3 security, could you help me test my #WiFi driver? It should only take a few minutes, and I'd be very appreciative!

I am looking at buying a new stove. Many of the options are “smart” and wifi enabled. I don’t think my stove needs this, nor should it be part of a large-scale DDS attack due to un-updated firmware.
Is this something I can disable when I get it home?
Am I just a luddite?

We had a great turn out tonight for our hands-on soldering workshop at https://does.social/@DoESLiverpool.

Teaching the basics of assembling your own Printed Circuit Board (PCB) was @huffeec & @amcewen

The workshop was so well received we may well run it again.

Hello Friends, my current contract role wraps up at the end of January, so I am looking to get #FediHired FT or PT in the arena of Internet of Things #IoT , Embedded Systems, and Making Friends With The Robot Overlords When They Were Babies.

I have an electronics and advanced manufacturing lab in Brisbane, so am ideally placed to assist businesses who need a "hardware wizard on retainer".

I have a sneaky suspicion at least one of the "connected refrigerator" WIFI access points that has bounced up here is mine. (only shows up intermittently, but I suspect that's because the WIFI only shows up when the fridge is power cycled). #iot #wifi #fridge

Periodic reminder that I maintain the https://github.com/unixorn/internet-of-trash list.

If you bought some #iot device and it doesn't work well (or at all) with #HomeAssistant, please create an issue or PR. Same if the vendor starts charging for API access or disables local API access.

I can use all the help I can get

Prototyping more and testing designs on the physical display.

Mix between isometric and wide grid format to make use of the 400x240 pixel area. Had prototyped an isometric design but scrapped after realizing it frustrating to control with a d-pad input.

Pt. 2 of the @alexlynd #DevKitty #hardware #security kit workshop goes live in ~20! We'll be programming #LEDs & custom #IoT payloads

Plus, tune into our Hackster.io Holidays Finale next Tuesday to win a kit! https://events.hackster.io/hacksterholidays

Call to #hackerspaces & #makerspaces around the world, lets join forces!

Hi. I make #OpenSource smart #thermostats that don't spy on you. I don't ship internationally for two reasons: financial cost and environmental cost. I'd like to join a network of Makerspaces to have them be produced regionally so people outside of America can get a pre-made unit.

Does this network already exist? If so, how do I join? If it doesn't exist, would you like to help build it?
