Automated plane-spotting next, combining an ADS-B receiver (running via a low-cost RTL-SDR dongle) which decodes the plane's location, trains a #RaspberryPi HQ Camera Module with a telephoto lens on that spot in the sky, snaps a picture, and passes it to OpenCV to see if it actually managed to catch the plane or not.

Then a new model in the M5Stack Cardputer range, but this one's not a microcontroller-powered gadget: it features the #RaspberryPi Compute Module Zero, which is basically what you get if you cut all the ports off a Raspberry Pi Zero 2 and squish it into a stamp form-factor. https://www.hackster.io/news/m5stack-unveils-the-cardputerzero-an-all-in-one-pocket-sized-gadget-powered-by-the-raspberry-pi-cm0-1cdfe005d71d #Technology #News #Hackster
