ADSBee 1090 – Open Source Low Cost Embedded ADS-B Receiver

Faire: Bay Area

Maker: John McNelly

Home: California, United States

ADSBee 1090 is an open source embedded ADS-B receiver that decodes 1090MHz aircraft transponder transmissions, including ADS-B (Automatic Dependent Surveillance Broadcast) and Mode S. ADS-B signals from aircraft can be used to gather aircraft location, flight status, weather reports, and so much more! Standalone embedded ADS-B receivers have been expensive and closed source for decades. The ADSBee project, and its first product, the ADSBee 1090, aims to change that! The ADSBee 1090 uses the RP2040's PIO peripherals to decode ADS-B packets, enabling a fully self-contained low cost design that doesn't need an FPGA or external compute to function. Best of all, its firmware and schematic are fully open source under a GNU GPLv3 license. Let's make something cool together!

Frying the fish in water

Faire: Rome

Maker: Università degli Studi di Salerno - Dipartimento di Ingegneria Industriale

Home: Italy

In Neapolitan dialect they say "frying fish with water" to indicate the ability to get the best from the scarce resources you have available (oil costs much more than water...). It is the philosophy that guides our educational/informative project, aimed at demonstrating that the knowledge about electronic technologies and digital signal processing techniques may allow us to transform a banal balloon into an aerostat with unexpected sensory capabilities.

Early Detection of Sea Coastal Water Contaminants

Faire: Rome

Maker: Università degli Studi del Sannio - Benevento

Home: Italy

We show an application on WASDI platform for a user-friendly interface for collecting, analyzing, and visualizing water quality data. In particular, our idea is to show a system for near real-time detection of water contaminants through monitoring specific parameters and using satellite data and Artificial Intelligence (AI) techniques. The proposed solution will empower stakeholders to make informed decisions about water management. The final objective is the creation of an “alert service”.
