Speaking of the #RaspberryPi CM5, there's a new carrier board coming out - an open-hardware design which adapts it into a mini-ITX form factor complete with x16 (mechanical, it's still one-lane) PCI Express slot.

Sanctuary Systems' Sentinel Core Turns a Raspberry Pi Compute Module 5 Into a "Better Computer"

Open-hardware carrier converts the computer-on-module in to a mini-ITX board, complete with full-size PCI Express slot.

When the #RaspberryPi Compute Module 5 came out, you couldn't use the IO Case's bundled fan and heatsink at the same time - which was spun as letting people try out passive and active cooling separately.

Well, that definitely-not-a-design-flaw-honest has been fixed: the latest IO Case shifts the fan to allow clearance underneath for the heatsink.

Raspberry Pi Revises the Compute Module 5 IO Board, IO Case Designs for Better Cooling

Fresh new Rev. 2 models address a flaw in the original designs, and finally let you mount both the heatsink and fan at the same time.

More #science next with an iron-on material which makes integrated soft circuits into clothing and other fabrics as easy as ironing on a patch.

Researchers Make Wearable Electronics as Simple as Ironing on a Patch

New material bonds strongly with a wide range of common clothing fabrics to quickly functionalize them.

There's still one in the queue (and one embargoed until tomorrow,) but here's my latest for #Hackster - starting with one from last week I hadn't mentioned yet: a project to generate sound which can be picked up by smartphone microphones to help locate people (or, I guess, their phones) buried under rubble after a disaster.

Sound Generators Targeting Smartphone Mics Could Help Find Disaster Victims

Shogo Takada's novel approach doesn't require that the victim be able to respond, and could be upgraded for three-dimensional positioning.
