Why This Tiny Development Board is Surprisingly Fun!

the Windows XP logon screen grabbed my attention immediately 😂

The AtomS3R is an upgrade which now includes 8MB of PSRAM (lacking in the first version) plus a redesigned wifi antenna layout for improved range and reliability. For those wishing to 'Rickroll' themselves with Volos' demo, make sure to select 'Huge App' partition scheme otherwise the build will fail. Thanks for sharing Volos.

[@r_firefly4292]

I also hope that they could also bring this upgrade to the S3stamp... That way we can boot the Linux kernel on the cardputer! (Though not very pratical)

Congratulations on 100k subscribers! 🎉

I will need to get this to! For me the interesting thing is the upgrade to the integrated 9axis imu. I have had a project in mind for a couple of years, that seems perfect for a couple of these new R models. Love the standard atoms3! The nano also sounds interesting, even smaller than the atom, and gets you a long way without polling out the soldering iron.

[@odeldodelhorst7549]

I really like these relaxed videos

[@ximono]

I would love to see an Atom S3 with a tiny e-paper display and a small battery included. I'd make my own Tamagotchi!

[@VeniceInventors]

That S3R would be perfect to make a tiny retro computer looking like an Amiga or Atari running some demos! The rotary encoders stick with 8 knobs could be used to control audio effects applied to sound coming in on the analog pin of an esp32, or to simulate an analog synth with each knob altering the envelope, pitch, waveform, etc, or to control 8 pwm channels connected to motors with mirrors and lasers to draw patterns on the wall. or to control the lights, curtains, fireplace, etc of a doll house. You get the idea :-)

[@ionelchereja7650]

It would be amazing if you ever do a tutorial for that windows XP loading screen type of animations! Amazing projects!

[@tubeDude48]

As usual, I'm blown away with how small you made this project! 👍

[@edwardfletcher7790]

It's a supplied module. Factory made.

Amazing small form factors!

[@madwilliamflint]

This actually hit me at the perfect time. I need to activate a relay for a half second when usb power is applied, and the m5 with their solid state relay actually looks perfect. EDIT: Whups. Not the Solid State, but one of their other relay modules.

[@VolosProjects]

Yes SSR cant handle mire than 3A

[@madwilliamflint]

@@VolosProjects My goal is to just use it to ground out a gpio pin on a raspberry pi 4 to get it to boot. So I should be good.

[@x_CrossHair_x]

Amazing stuff 👍👨‍🎓 (Those rotary encoders.. WOW. . ) so Many in one unit.. would be interesting to see those put to use (Big question what to do).

[@Waveshare_Ruan]

Love it too

[@elektron2kim666]

I'm trying to find a use for the M5 Capsule at the moment.

[@leehewitt9559]

Love it👌

Tnx 😀

pa je jedva radim i sa klasichnim esp32 a ovu minijaturu tesko da bi i video neshto ali dobro je za nesto stvarno gde je limitiran prostor pozdrav ljudino

[@VolosProjects]

Pozdrav, ovaj je vise za igru, il mozda za prikazati jedan veci broj. Nadam se da uzivas u svojoj prirodi i domacim proizvodima, zalihe za zimu su spremne?

@@VolosProjects evo danas smo stavili i kupus da se kiseli za sarme drva takodje spremna zimnica slatka slana Ostalo samo da vidim kako da umirim onu glupavu napravu dto se zove vaga Pozdrav

[@voncolborn9437]

Haha, you're like me. I buy them because they are too cute to not buy them. They're less than a couple of cups of coffee and are more fun, too. Legos for grown-ups.

[@VolosProjects]

thats right, legos for grown- ups :)

[@rossquaresmini5834]

Spettacolo

[@InsipidProgrammer]

I made a remote desktop viewer for older esp32, but the update time is not fast. I wonder if the S3 module will have a better refresh rate.

[@VolosProjects]

Wow, thats impresive project. I dont think esp s3 whoud make big diference.

[@InsipidProgrammer]

@@VolosProjects You think so? Thanks! It's abandoned, but I'll make a video with instructions and ideas, maybe someone else can tinker with it =)

[@VolosProjects]

@iGNUiCould thanks, i will check it out and try to se if something can be done

[@TouYubeTom]

windows does not boot?

👍👍👍

afternoon naptime lmao

[@JanDahl]

Time to upgrade Cardputers? PS: You forgot to put in an affiliate link. You should also check if large distributors like RS Online have affiliate programs.

[@edwardfletcher7790]

Nobody doing hobby projects buys from RS Components. They're purely for Gov, Military, Business, because their low quantity prices are INSANE.

[@jj74qformerlyjailbreak3]

I wish someone could help me with the M5 Cardputer. I have some great ideas for them. One is a Authorization pass for my work badges and password manager.

[@jackvulcan312]

Trying your affiliate link wish me luck ordering almost 100 dollars gonna try to make a robot 🤖

[@VolosProjects]

Good luck, and have fun 😀

[@bernardmarx6705]

I don't understand what these micro modules are made for...

[@JanDahl]

It has more power than the home computers from the 80s so it can run all sorts of small programs.

[@edwardfletcher7790]

They're mainly development tools for learning and commercial product design.

[@bernardmarx6705]

@@edwardfletcher7790 If you add few more bucks, you can buy Esp32 dev board and a usable size display to learn programing.

[@pinpointping6175]

Fun, not costly to manufacture, and people will buy at a markup cause they’re fun and novel. Not a lot of these are actually made, just enough for those tinkerers who enjoy “collecting” boards. Of course there are some real uses cases… maybe a special multifunction keyboard button or a socials counter?

[@pinpointping6175]

Also they’re daisy-chainable by design so that adds another dimension of possibilities.

[@arp_catchall]

Way too tiny LCD to be of practical use.
