Just a one man show for now but this is my current side project: https://www.tesotaoverland.com/product/apds The idea is that this replaces a many of the components you'd normally use to build out a 12V electrical system for a van or 4wd truck. Just plug everything in to the WAGO connectors, no bus bars, fuse blocks or difficult crimp connections required.
Sweet! I want the same thing plus current and voltage monitoring and the ability to shutdown certain circuits. I have a design for a wifi (or bt) operated 1000A relay to disconnect the starting and the house batteries.
We're building a closed loop artificial pancreas (think dialysis but for blood sugar) for hospital use -- the first of its kind in the US. There's a massive unmet need; all critical care patients, and all people with diabetes in the hospital could benefit. Studies have shown you can achieve a 30% reduction in mortality, and 25% reduction in length of stay, in addition to the hours per day you save nurses from managin…
I am making and selling an eink smart screen. It can display a google calendar. You can also point it to any url that serves an image. Is it okay to post a link? https://shop.invisible-computers.com/products/invisible-cale... I am planning to release more applications for it and I am opening the platform for 3rd party applications.
Give it Home Assistant integration, or at least MQTT control, and I'd buy at least one
Looks pretty simple to do.
We make the world's best baby car seats. https://www.kioma.us Fatherly Magazine calls it "The Car Seat of the Future". It's been crash tested, flight inversion tested, flammability tested and mom tested. It is full of patented innovations to make kids safer and parenting more enjoyable. It required lots of material science, production techniques, supply chain adjustments, and a surprising amount of software (to model…
The strap is a single point of failure. Each mount should be attached to the seat brackets individually. Those brackets need to be braced and not just bolted through plywood. Having patents on innovations is necessary, but if you have innovations that will save kids lives, you should find a way to make those broadly usable by all. https://patents.google.com/patent/US10967762B2/en?oq=1096776... This this TOS usual for…

Why not make one that's solid steel and can tank a direct hit from a bus? You could make some really funny advertisements with crash test dummies.
Working solo on building an Android-compatible device, coming from a pure-software background. It's certainly a different world than the OSS community and available resources there, but the homebrew/hobbyist scene seems to have made a number of things more accessible over the past few years. I'm struggling with how to put an Android-compatible board together with just the peripherals I want (similar to a Pi but slimm…
Alternatively, if yoou want more control/performance than what Android gives you, you can also look into Buildroot, which makes it very easy to build a custom linux distribution with your application in it, that is, you get a firmware ready to burn in your board with linux and your app running in it.
Good luck!
