Matt used to hold the high score for every light gun game at the local arcade, but he's a little out of practice since the switch to modern, flat-screen, high-definition displays. Longing for a new challenge, he decides to build a gesture-controlled variation of the classic NES Zapper that will work on modern screens through emulators such as RetroPie and MAME. It's a new take on retro hardware based around an LSM9DS1 and ATmega32u4 that not only breathes life into otherwise forgotten games, but also provides an entirely new hand-eye coordination challenge!

The Xybernaut Mobile Assistant was one of the earliest attempts at wearable computers--way back in the 1990s! It was an interesting feat of engineering for the time, but technological limitations, a high price tag, and contemporary interface design conventions stood in the way of mainstream success. Matt ran across one of the later models--the MAIV--that was dead-on-arrival, but wanted to add it to his retro computer collection. So with very little documentation available (The Xybernaut corporation went bust in the early 2000s after several commercial flops and some financial chicanery), he tore it down to see what powered it and set about to rebuild it with modern components. Was the Xybernaut a viable platform in hindsight? Is Minesweeper playable on a 2" head-mounted display? Why didn't arm-mounted keyboards catch on? These and more questions will be answered in this week's element14 Presents!

The PlayStation Classic is the latest in a line of retro-inspired "plug-and-play" consoles capitalizing on the nostalgia train led by the Nintendo NES and SNES Classics, but there's something about it that's just a little amiss. Matt attempts to fix the alleged shortcomings of the PlayStation Classic by converting it into a portable, handheld system so he can enjoy his nostalgia on the go! The task may be easier said than done, though, as he has to battle against southern California's Santa Ana Winds (and their requisite high-static environment), an ailing 3D printer, and the eccentricities of Sony's budget circuit board to assemble a proof-of-concept prototype that will either work flawlessly or just explode in his hands!

Modern smart phones have become so ubiquitous these days that old analog phones are getting left in the dust. However, you may still have a few of these old phones hanging around your house collecting cobwebs or you may have seen some lingering on the shelves at your local thrift shop. Now’s your chance to put them to good use. In this video, Derek takes you back to a time when stretching a phone cord across the room was the norm by creating a 4-line telephone intercom system with basic ringing capability. The circuit surrounds a DTMF decoder IC which handles keypress detection, a simple AC inverter to handle the ringing and a current source which allows analog communication between multiple phones.

To many, "retro handheld gaming" conjures images of the Nintendo Game Boy, Sega Game Gear, or even the Atari Lynx, but Matt wanted to take this retro gaming project all the way back to the dawn of an era--before 8-bit processors and dot matrix screens with stereo sound, back when writing words on an inverted calculator could entertain for hours!
In the late 1970s, electronic gaming was all the rage. The Atari 2600 and Magnavox Odyssey had already invaded living rooms while Mattel and Coleco were taking their burgeoning electronic toys divisions and gearing up to enter the console market. The Intellivision and the Colecovision might have fizzled out by the early 1980s, but their legacy in gaming had already been written with blinking lights and buzzers.

Matt is a fan of both aviation and historical engineering, so he has decided to bring those two worlds together in an attempt to recreate one of the most elusive designs in aeronautics: the ornithopter. The ornithopter is a flapping-wing flying machine that is fairly easy to build small models of, but--like most novel aircraft designs--becomes exponentially more unwieldy at larger scales. Granted, RC ornithopters DO exist, but they're very small and do not mimic the form of a human-carrying fuselage. Will Matt succeed at creating a larger-scaled ornithopter and revolutionize powered flight? Or will he return to his bench and the idiomatic drawing board? Either way, it's going to be an interesting ride!

One of the great joys of being able to design with electronics is the ability to make your own custom tools. DJ recently picked up a CNC router and in order to make his life a wee bit easier, he’s designed and built a pendant that will allow him to more comfortably, and accurately set up his parts in the machine. Follow along as he tinkers his way to a new gadget that, hopefully, will be of use or inspiration for fellow makers and CNC enthusiasts.

Who doesn't love portable computers from the '80s? Too bulky to call them a laptop yet, but much more luggable than other computers from that era. Of course, the easiest way to get a box started is with aluminum extrusions, some laser cut mounts for a Raspberry PI 4, and a mechanical keyboard to get you almost done with the basics! Dave has never built a "daily driver" Raspberry PI build where the SD card doesn't get reformatted with the next use of the Raspberry Pi.

In 2016 Clem built a very annoying synthesizer in the form of a wristwatch. After showing it around at various Maker Faires it broke, so he decided to rebuild it better louder and more annoying than ever before! It is user-programmable thanks to the Arduino MKR and a haptic interface with satisfying sliders!

You may know Karen from The Learning Circuit. Now you can find her making projects on Element14 Presents! In this episode, Karen creates an electronic escape room puzzle. Escape rooms have been increasing in popularity in recent years. Go into a room with one hour to solve all of the puzzles, find all of the keys, open all the doors, and ESCAPE! You often have to find specific objects and solve a riddle, placing the objects in a certain spot in a certain way to solve the puzzle. Karen creates a puzzle where you have to choose the correct 3 stuffed animals and place them correctly on the stand in order to open the box. Watch to see how Karen does it and find out how her first project turns out!

Although we mostly rely on smartphones to take photos, portable Photo Booths are a convenient alternative at events like parties and weddings. Building one from scratch in 2019 is easier than ever, particularly using a Raspberry Pi board and camera, along with a Touchscreen Display. In this video, we go over the steps on how to assemble the hardware and setup the software to run a Pi-powered Photo Booth for taking selfies with your besties at the next gathering!

A child of the hyper-consumerist 80s and 90s, Matt grew up on a steady diet of sugared cereal and UHF television. As such, his sense of nostalgia is driven as much by advertising trends of the era as it is by music or other sociological elements. This leads to an interesting relationship with the winter holiday season, where seasonally-themed television commercials hold as high a place in tradition as any carol, tree, or gift exchange. To celebrate this odd bit of seasonal nostalgia, Matt builds a retro-television-themed ornament from a Raspberry Pi that plays those magical commercials from his youth and is powered by a strand of holiday fairy lights!

Everybody loves a 16-bit retro gaming handheld, but that hardly justifies possibly wrecking an old original console for it. Clem encounters a random fake clone console in his storage and has nothing to lose for ripping apart a device that should not exist in the first place. By reverse-engineering the pinout, and fabricating a slick case, he builds a slick retro handheld that plays and feels much better than the clone console before the conversion! Thus, possibly saving a lot of old consoles while removing knockoffs from the market!

What would virtual reality be like if flat panel display technology were never invented? In this project, Andy uses a pair of CRTs and the Raspberry Pi 4 to build a VR headset with stereoscopic 3D, 3DOF head tracking, and custom, browser-based software. It may not be practical but it's definitely unique and guaranteed to have no screen door effect.

Ever have someone barge in on you while you are recording? Well, I have a solution for that! In this episode, we are going to build a DIY wireless Recording light that mounts outside your studio and you can trigger it from the remote at your desk. Utilizing Particle Mesh technology, this device can be expanded to trigger other devices such as your camera, or audio recording device.
