Pico-Pong

“Classic Pong On a RP2040 You only really need an SSD1306 which are cheap and easy to pick up and a couple of cheap potentiometers. You can add a speaker if you like but it will work without.”

Picture perfect X-ray capture

“Layered nanomaterials shine for lossless light-energy conversion. A nanocomposite that absorbs X-rays and then, with nearly perfect efficiency, re-emits the captured energy as light, could help to improve high-resolution medical imaging and security screening. The material’s near-100 percent energy …
