In this video I show you how to overclock the new Raspberry Pi Zero 2 W! I go over two different ways of overclocking first all on the Pi Zero 2 and second from a different PC. I recommend a heatsink of the Flirc case for the Pi Zero 2 W when overclocking but this defiantly helps out with performance! The Stock CPU speed on the Raspberry Pi Zero 2 W is 1.0GHz but we can easily overclock to 1.3GHz.
This clever — and non-destructive — upgrade adds digital capabilities, including streaming, to a classic of home cinema.
Pseudonymous maker “befinitiv” has once again designed a digital upgrade for a classic film camera, this time refreshing an old Super 8 cine film camera with a Raspberry Pi Zero W.
“Nowadays [Super 8 cameras] are almost unusable right now, because these cartridges are really hard to get,” befinitiv explains in the project’s video, brought to our attention by Adafruit. “You can find them still, here and there, but shooting one roll of film will cost you roughly €60 (around $70) — and this is €60 euros for three minutes worth of poor quality video.”
At the heart of Raspberry Pi Zero 2 W is RP3A0, a custom-built system-in-package designed by Raspberry Pi in the UK. With a quad-core 64-bit ARM Cortex-A53 processor clocked at 1GHz and 512MB of SDRAM, Zero 2 is up to five times as fast as the original Raspberry Pi Zero.
Wireless LAN is built in to a shielded enclosure with improved RF compliance, giving you more flexibility when designing with Raspberry Pi Zero 2 W.

There’s really no wrong way to decorate for Halloween. It’s the effort that counts, even if all you do is toss some pumpkins on the porch, or set up an inflatable witch on the lawn. But there are those that go above and beyond the call of duty, like Dan Beaven, who leverages some cutting-edge levitation tech to make it look like ghosts are actually real.
Small Robot Company (SRC), a British agritech startup for sustainable farming, has developed AI-enabled robots – named Tom, Dick and Harry – that identify and kill individual weeds with electricity. These agricultural robots could reduce the use of harmful chemicals and heavy machinery, paving the way for a new approach to sustainable crop farming.
The startup has been working on automated weed killers since 2017, and this April officially launched Tom, the first commercial robot currently operating on three UK farms. Dick is still in the prototype phase, and Harry is still in development.
In this tutorial, we will cover how to build an audio-visual face mask detection system using M5Stack UnitV2 and Core2 developments boards.
Making a Super Capacitor Electric Bike
Capable of working even if you don’t think you’re sweating, the SweatSenser is suitable for long-term monitoring of stress levels and more.
A novel wearable sweat sensor, developed by researchers at the University of Texas at Dallas and in the process of being commercialized by EnLiSense, could provide insight into the health and stress levels of wearers — even if it can only sample a tiny amount of sweat.
After replacing the internals of an original 4th gen iPod with a Raspberry Pi Zero W, it now supports modern features and a bigger battery.
The original iPod was what many consider to be the product that launched Apple into the realm of pocketable consumer technology and acted as a precursor to the now ubiquitous iPhone lineup. In recent times, the nearly two decades-old technology within the iPod is very outdated, but rather than throwing his old one out, one user who goes by production on Hackaday.io decided to upgrade it with some new internals while still being able to control everything with the original buttons and capacitive front wheel.
This time I will show you how to build a nice-looking ring clock. The clock uses a WS2812 ring containing 60 Leds,(4 Quarter circle neopixels x 15 Leds) and it is ideal for this purpose. This is a analog style digital clock with multiple display states, a 24-hour alarm, a count down alarm, multiple alarm display states and a demo mode. Hours, minutes and seconds are represented by a different color of the corresponding LED.
