New feature for the AHID Mouse: I added support for a small OLED display which shows the first eight active flags and the current profile. #accessibility #oshw #assistivetech #3dprinting #ahidmouse #ahid

Good news for everyone who isn't able to build an #opendmgdisplay themselves: It seems like there is a shop that has adapted the design. Disclaimer: I just came across this offer, but I haven't tested it myself, nor am I affiliated with this company. #oshw #gameboy jt-studios.com/product/oddk...

Progress on the AHID Mouse: The hardware is working. Today, I took some assembly pictures. There is still some work to do on the software side. #accessibility #oshw #assistivetech #ahid #ahidmouse

Thanks so much, Patrick, for sharing your color palettes for projects like the Open DMG Display. Your palettes really elevated the project. Looking forward to seeing what you create next!

Currently revisiting an eleven-year-old design. The #mouthoperatedmouse still gets some attention on Thingiverse, so I'm giving it an update. I'm finishing the documentation now, and there should be a blog post about the project within the next couple of weeks.

Happy 25th birthday, Game Boy Advance! To celebrate, I am happy to announce the Game Boy Enhance is FINALLY here! The Game Boy Enhance (AGBM) is a circuit-level recreation of the Game Boy Advance. It uses almost all-new components, but still uses the original CPU - it's not emulation!

New post: A very niche topic for anyone tinkering with strain gauges using #Avia ADCs like the HX717. Covers running multiple HX717s from the same clock and working around undocumented protocol quirks (which might affect the older HX711 as well). www.embedded-ideas.de/posts/260513...

New post on my blog: I built a joystick using a 2-layer PCB and some strain gauges. The #StrainStick works very similarly to a TrackPoint. There's also a small demo software that lets you use it as a mouse by connecting it to a CH32V203 dev board. #OSHW www.embedded-ideas.de/posts/260305...

I did another take on SMD storage containers and added wire storage. Fully 3D‑printable and customizable, you only need an aditional spring per container. There’s even a mount for IKEA Skådis ;) Hope it helps you stay organized! www.embedded-ideas.de/posts/260214...

USB video capturing for the Open DMG Display! I adapted the GB Interceptor approach for the #opendmgdisplay, making it likely the first #gameboy IPS mod with integrated USB video output. Big thanks to @there.oughta.be ! www.embedded-ideas.de/posts/251116...

embedded-ideas.deUSB video output for the Open DMG DisplayUSB video output has been added to the Open DMG Display. It is now possible to capture the original display signal via UVC on a PC or smartphone.

Turning a low-cost CH32V305 MCU into a Game Boy Advance (and Color) USB capture device, with no extra circuitry required. Captures full-res at ~60 Hz and streams it over UVC. A fun look at combining basic peripherals to extend the capabilities of a simple MCU. www.embedded-ideas.de/posts/251030...
