During this short talk, I will introduce CADCloud an online platform tightly integrated with FreeCAD and designed to manage version tracking and user collaborations in CAD. CADCloud aims to create a reference database of 3D models generated by FreeCAD users and allow them to easily handle their lifecycle and sharing.

The architecture, engineering, and construction industry is a vast, diverse, but highly proprietary field. The primary means of data exchange between architects, structural, MEPF engineers, cost planners, surveyors, program schedulers, asset/facility management and more revolve around a concept known as Building Information Modeling (BIM) in addition to CAD. Many of these tools do not exist as free software, or are drastically better, or are dominated by a monopoly vendor market with lock-in ...

KiCad 6 features a new real-time netlisting system that is used to determine connectivity between items in schematics as the user draws them. Previously, netlisting in KiCad was a relatively slow operation that only took place when commanded by the user. I will discuss the motivations behind this system, some details of its implementation, benefits it brings, and some opportunities for future improvements.

ngspice development is heading towards the ngspice-34 release. Three major activities are to be reported: We have integrated the high frequency bipolar model HICUM-2.4 from TU Dresden, Germany into the C sources of ngspice. Efficient simulation of GHz circuits becomes possible. ngspice has been adapted to efficiently serve the upcoming Open Source Skywater 0.13um CMOS PDK. adms for ngspice has been enhanced to allow integrating Berkeley BSIM Bulk and CMG models. Application examples will show ...

The term brain-computer interface is well known among engineers, tinkerers, and specifically among researchers. Companies like BackYard Brains made it accessible for all at a relatively affordable price, with their initiative of neuroscience for all. The price of their device and the ease of usability it comes with is pretty good for a school student who's just looking for an introduction to neuroscience but, the resolution of Arduino's ADC (10bit) doesn't allow it to be used for any real ...
