But during an emergency, such as weather extreme enough to cause power or network outages, the internet may be inaccessible. How do you learn vital information in that scenario? The answer is with good old-fashioned radio. But a lot of people don’t own battery-powered radios, which is why element14 Presents’...

RAS2025-09-17T00:54:20+00:00Arduino Team — September 17th, 2025 A GPU (graphics processing unit) is a specialized computer component for, primarily, rendering graphics. That RTX 5090 that you took out a second mortgage to buy is one example. But GPUs are useful for far more than just playing the newest games at max settings; their parallel processing capabilities make them desirable for other tasks, like crunching data for machine learning. Jean Michel Sellier was able to build something similar...
