Hackaday Podcast 191: Researchers Analyze Starlink, Change Direction, and LFT Plays Commodordion
This week, Editor-in-Chief Elliot Williams and Editor-in-Chief Dan Maloney come together for a look at all that's cool under the hacking sun.
Think you need to learn how to read nerve impulses to operate a prosthetic hand? Think again - try spring-loaded pistons and some hall-effect sensors. What does Starlink say? We're not sure, but if you're smart enough, you can use the radio link for ad hoc global positioning. Historically awful keyboards, pan-and-scan wired weather stations, invisibility cloaks, plumbing fittings for electrical controls – we'll cover it all. And if you've never heard two Commodore 64s and a stack of old floppy disks turned into an electronic accordion, you really don't know what you're missing.
