    A DIY Proximity Sensor, Using Just Scrap Parts And Software
    https://hackaday.com/2024/07/01/diy-proximity-sensor-using-just-scrap-parts-and-software/

    [mircemk] shows how to create a simple non-contact proximity sensor using little more than an Arduino Nano board, and a convenient software library intended to measure the value of capacitors.
    The prototype has a threshold set via potentiometer for convenience.

    The basic idea is that it’s possible to measure a capacitor’s capacitance using two microcontroller pins and the right software, so by using a few materials to create an open-style capacitor, one can monitor it for changes and detect when anything approaches enough to alter its values past a given threshold, creating a proximity sensor.

    The sensor shown here is essentially two plates mounted side-by-side, attached to an Arduino Nano using the Capacitor library which uses just two pins, one digital and one analog.

    A capacitive proximity sensor is a type of sensor used to detect the presence of an object without physical contact.

    Arduino library to measure capacitance from 0.2pF to over 100uF with no external hardware.
    This library allows capacitance to be measured between two pins. One pin must be an analog pin.

    UNDO ARDUINO ENCRYPTION WITH AN OSCILLOSCOPE
    https://hackaday.com/2024/07/14/undo-arduino-encryption-with-an-oscilloscope/

    Cryptography ain’t easy. Seemingly small details like how many times a computationally intensive loop runs can give the game away. [Lord Feistel] gives us a demo of how this could work with nothing more than poorly designed code, a resistor, and an oscilloscope.
