This guide outlines the methodology for conducting hardware security research on embedded systems. It covers physical interface analysis (UART, JTAG, SWD), debug pad triage, secure boot evaluation, and offline firmware extraction. It emphasizes systematic, non-destructive testing protocols and responsible handling of physical devices.

Mentor for embedded and IoT hardware projects: helps select MCUs, dev boards, toolchains, and data destinations (phone, PC, dashboard, alert). Provides time/cost estimates and phased build plans from breadboard MVP to production PCB. Use for questions about ESP32, STM32, Arduino, Raspberry Pi Pico, firmware, PCB, KiCad, MQTT, Home Assistant, or hardware tool recommendations.

A comprehensive guide to tuning game physics parameters, including mass, gravity, drag, and continuous collision detection (CCD). It addresses common stability issues like jitter and tunneling by correctly separating the fixed-timestep simulation (physics updates) from the variable-rate rendering (visual updates) using interpolation. Essential for creating predictable and responsive game motion across various hardware.

Design custom laboratory hardware components using parametric Python models with build123d. Export fabrication-ready files like STEP, STL, and DXF for microfluidic chips, mounts, and adapters. Ensure precise interface dimensions against standards for compatibility with lab equipment. Use for physical parts mating with standardized labware, optical tables, or manufacturing processes.

Maintain comprehensive IT asset inventories and configuration management databases. Track hardware, software, and cloud resources using automated discovery scripts and CMDB integration. Ensure compliance and operational visibility through tagging and schema enforcement.
