📹 Build a Face Recognition System for $60 with the New Nvidia Jetson Nano 2GB and Python
The Nvidia Jetson Nano 2GB dev board is a single-board computer that goes for $59 and runs AI software with GPU-acceleration.
The kind performance you can get out of a $59 single-board computer is kind of amazing. Let’s use it to create a simple version of a doorbell camera that tracks everyone that walks up to the front door of your house. With face recognition, it will instantly know whether the person at your door has ever visited you before — even if they were dressed differently.

📰 NASA Mars Perseverance Rover Uses Same PowerPC Chipset Found in 1998 G3 iMac
NASA's Perseverance rover, which recently made history landing on the surface of Mars, is powered by the same processor used in an iMac more than 23 years old.
As reported by NewScientist, the rover includes the PowerPC 750 processor, the same chip used in the G3 iMac in 1998.
The main chipset is the same; however, there are differences between the version of the processor shipped in a consumer computer and the one exploring space. The processor in the rover is built to withstand temperatures between -67 and 257 degrees Fahrenheit (−55 and 125 degrees Celsius) and comes with an added $200,000 price tag.
The PowerPC 750 processor was ahead of the game for its time, featuring a single-core, 233MHz processor, 6 million transistors (compared to today's 16 billion in a single chip), and based on 32-bit architecture.

🎛 Best cases for the Raspberry Pi 4, 3 and even Pi Zero
Though you can run a Raspberry Pi effectively without one, many want a case that can protect the single-board computer while offering an attractive design, built-in cooling or even special features. The amount of Raspberry Pi cases available is almost as numerous as decimal places in the number Pi, but choosing the right one for your model and use case can be a challenge.

🎛 A neat way to add a reset button to Raspberry Pi Pico
The Raspberry Pi Pico is a nice little board, but if you program in C language, you’d need to disconnect the micro USB cable each time you’d like to flash the UF2 firmware. That’s not convenient and could damage your board over time. The Raspberry Pi Foundation even decided to write a blog post explaining how to add a reset button to your Raspberry Pi Pico using a breadboard circuit.

💻 Top 10 Programming Languages for AI and Machine Learning
The world saw some big and remarkable discoveries in the 20th century. Artificial Intelligence is one of them. There was a time when AI and Machine Learning(ML) could not be applied due to a lack of computing power. But today’s computers are robust enough to handle Machine Learning algorithms. That’s why AI and ML are ruling in almost every field. Machine Learning and AI is a valuable skill now. However, to use it, you have to learn a specific programming language from various Artificial Intelligence and Machine Learning programming languages. Today we will assist you in picking an appropriate programming language to work in this field.

📟 Reconnect ESP32 to Wi-Fi Network After Lost Connection
This quick guide shows how you can reconnect your ESP32 to a Wi-Fi network after losing the connection. This can be useful in the following scenarios: the ESP32 temporarily loses Wi-Fi signal; the ESP32 is temporarily out of the router’s Wi-Fi range; the router restarts; the router loses internet connection or other situations.

🤖 Raspberry Pi Zero 3D Printed Video Streaming Robot
ZeroBot is a Raspberry Pi Zero W based robot. It can be controlled using any computer or smartphone via a web browser. The integrated camera module makes for a low latency video stream. In addition the Raspberry Pi acts as a Wi-Fi access point, so no router is required. The parts for the hull as well as the wheels can easily be printed on any regular 3D printer.
Some of the key features are:
▫️ Compact CAD design with 3D printed components
▫️ Analog control via a joystick (and multitouch)
▫️ Simple battery solution using only a standard power bank
▫️ Low latency streaming (~0.2s)
▫️ Easy and cheap to build using widely available components

🤖 3D Printed ESP32 Powered Video Streaming Robot
The ESP32 WiFi robot is a shrunken-down version of the ZeroBot. Instead of a Raspberry Pi, it is powered by the similarly popular ESP32. Despite its lower processing power, the ESP32 robot has a ton of features. It streams color video over WiFi, runs on a small LiPo battery and can be controlled accurately from any web browser. With the 4€ Esp32 and a 3€ camera, it's also really cheap.
Features:
▫️ Fully 3D printed chassis,(almost) no glue needed
▫️ Analog controls using a websocket interface
▫️ Low latency streaming (~100ms) at 120x160px
▫️ Custom PCB, no more messy wiring
▫️ Works with any 3.7V LiPo battery
▫️ Micro USB for programming and charging
