People have toyed with the idea of AR (Augmented Reality) glasses for a long time and we’ll probably end up with something commercially practical before too long. Until then, we’ve got brilliant makers like Miroslav Kotalík who are filling in the gaps by developing their own using our favorite SBC—theRaspberry Pi—to make them a reality. What’s really impressive here is how Kotalík has developed the entire system from scratch,even the lenses....

Power supply efficiency is the amount of power that a power supply unit (PSU) can convert from the AC power from the outlet into DC power, which is used by your computer components. PSUs are never 100% efficient, meaning not all the power they draw from the outlet is converted into usable power. Some of it gets lost, mainly in the form of heat. The efficiency of a PSU is the percentage of the AC input power that’s converted to DC output power....

A Redditor shared on the platform using a ‘bone-simulating’ filament to 3D print a sample test rib for planning surgeries. User u/PectusSurgeon said onr/3Dprintingthat they will also use TPU to print simulated cartilage but will still have to work out how to attach it to the PLA bone and “make it behave like the real thing.” It seems that the Redditor used the SimuBone Bone Modeling Filament created by 3DXTech to print the test rib, and according to the user’s feedback, it mostly feels like the real thing....
