After Decades, NASA May Finally Replace Mars Relays (opens the original)
Read excerpt
We’ve yet to find any definitive evidence that there’s biological life on present-day Mars, but to say it’s a dead planet isn’t exactly accurate. Since the first Viking lander touched down in 1976, a revolving cast of humanity’s robotic envoys have worked on and around the Red Planet — and as access to space becomes cheaper and more routine, the mechatronic population of Mars will continue to grow. Given the number of landers, rovers, and orbiting spacecraft that have been sent to study Mars ove
Reconstructing Device Firmware From SPI Reads (opens the original)
Read excerpt
If you wanted to extract the firmware from a mystery device, you might pull the flash chip out of it and toss it into a reader. But if you only had one chance to get it right and couldn’t risk damaging the device in the process, physically removing the chip may seem much less attractive. Reading the chip in-circuit failed — because of course it did — so what does that leave? Well, if you follow the example of [Matthew “wrongbaud” Alt], the next tool you reach for might be a logic analyzer. In a
Hackaday Podcast Episode 387: Superhuman Clocks, CAN In USB-C, And The Joys Of Bare Metal (opens the original)
Read excerpt
This week, Hackaday Editors Elliot Williams and Tom Nardi start the episode off by discussing the latest CircuitPython developments before covering some impressive reverse engineering efforts, the benefits of modeling your projects in 3D, and some of the most incredible timepieces that have ever graced the pages of Hackaday. You’ll also hear about the fascinating potential of combing 3D and UV printing, Linux on the ESP32, and a virtual TV station that pulls from the Internet Archive. The episod
FCC ISM Rules May Shatter Lora Mesh Communities (opens the original)
Read excerpt
Although everyone has their own reasons for exploring a new hobby, one of the driving factors behind the popularity of Meshtastic and MeshCore has been the incredible accessibility offered by off-grid LoRa mesh networks. You don’t need any expensive hardware or a license to get on the air — armed with a $20 microcontroller dev board and open source software, you could be on the mesh in minutes. Then came the really exciting part, seeing who else was out there. The low barrier of entry and ad-hoc
Hackaday Links: September 13, 2026 (opens the original)
Read excerpt
We try to steer clear of politics and societal issues here at Hackaday, so a protest is not usually the sort of thing we’d cover. But we figure it’s safe enough to bend the rules a bit when the ones doing the protesting happen to be robots. About 30 bots gathered — or at least were commanded to gather by the event organizers — in Warsaw to spur discussion about the impact AI and robots will have on the labor market. Beyond getting public and media attention, the demonstration was also designed t
