Episode description

Hackaday editors Mike Szczys and Elliot Williams navigate the crowded streets of the hackersphere for the most interesting hardware projects seen in the past week. Forget flip-dot displays, you need to build yourself a sequin display that uses a robot finger and sequin-covered fabric to send a message. You can do a lot (and learn a lot) with a 1-bit computer called the WDR-1. It's never been easier to turn a USB port into an embedded systems dev kit by using these FTDI and Bluepill tricks. And there's a Soyuz hardware teardown you don't want to miss. Show notes: https://hackaday.com/?p=398056
