Memtype

www.area0x33.com

Memtype project is an open source solution to store your passwords in a tiny USB form factor device to have them available everywhere.

The device is based on the Atmel attiny85 device and use V-USB software based solution to have USB communications.

MNT Reform

MNT Research GmbH

The MNT Reform is a modular laptop launched in 2020 featuring 7 open hardware PCBs made with KiCAD: motherboard (SoM carrier for Boundary Devices Nitrogen8M_SOM), mechanical keyboard, OLED, optical trackball, trackball sensor, trackpad, battery pack. STEP files for the CNC milled case and STL files for the 3D-printable parts are available as well. The goals of the project are to increase ownership, transparency, repairability and privacy of mobile computers.

MultiAdaptor

Opendous Inc.

This adaptor has multiple overlapping footprints for any occasion: up to 28 pin SOIC/SO (1.27mm pitch), up to 28-pin SSOP/TSSOP (0.65mm pitch), up to four SOT23, up to three SC70, one MSOP-10 (0.5mm pitch), one SOT223, and one SOT-143. All in a 0.8" wide DIP board. The header pins are staggered to allow press-fitting them while soldering.

Open Source POV Display using ESP32

Jobit Joseph

An open source POV display with 128 pixels resoultion and a maximum frame rate of 20FPS. This display is capable of displaying images as well as animation. The display is built around the ESP32 SoC, and used 74HC595 shift registers for controlling each pixels. We have also created a web tool, which will convert each image into a an array that only need approximately 2Kb of code space for each image. This makes it so that it can be easly integrate multiple number of images into the code without worrying about storage limitation.

Opsis

Numato & TimVideos

The Opsis is a powerful FPGA-based open source video platform for videographers and visual artists and designed to give the user complete control over high-speed video, enabling everything from real-time conference capturing solutions, to experimental visual art and even general FPGA-based video research.

Created in collaboration between the Numato Lab and TimVideos.us live event streaming project, the Opsis is the ideal device for the HDMI2USB.tv video capturing firmware, which allows for “fool-proof” video recording from any computer.
