This project implements an open source REU for the Commodore 64.
This is an updated version based on the final hardware design. The hardware consists of two PCBs. A Cyclone II development board uses an Intel EP2C5T144C8N FPGA and provides the FPGA and its configurator. A custom carrier board provides a mechanical and electrical interface for the FPGA board, a card edge connector compatible with the C64, logic level shifters required to convert between the C64 5V signals and the FPGA 3.3V signal levels, interfacing and power for the peripheral items on the PCB, a battery backed RTC, a 256 byte EEPROM, and a full-sized SD card socket.
The Brewing Academy LLC is located in Woodland, California, USA near Sacramento. We have been in Woodland since 2015 and have been operating in one form or another since 2005. In the past, we noticed that a lot of cool stuff came out for the Atari and the TI 99/4a and the Commodore, but that it always disappeared after awhile making it incredibly frustrating AND expensive for people to use their older computers. So, we decided to change that1 Our belief is that we find the coolest retro stuff we can and make sure we keep it available as long as possible.
LYNX's goal is to create a customizable computer control system that accommodates the individual needs of each user. The project stands on two pillars: open source, which provides all necessary files and instruction for self assembly, and the shop, where the tool can simply be purchased.

Somebody posted greyprints for making replacement parts for the Nintendo Power Glove.
RTCs for the RasPi that don't use the GPIO pins but a USB jack are apparently a thing. Battery backed.
Software for using those RTCs: https://github.com/sbcshop/USB-RTC
Briand's project to turn an ESP32 microcontroller board into a plug play Tor client.
The goal is to write a very simple C++17 working Tor proxy for ESP32 so the ESP32 could be attached to any computer with a bash/dos/putty client ready-to-go. Using ESP as a proxy allows to keep no traces of Tor client/browser on your computer (but traces of the navigation history and so on are not avoided!)
REMEMBER: The ESP32 is a 240MHz processor with 320KB of RAM. Do not expect good performance or fast webpage loading!
We build professional grade earth monitoring solutions that anyone can use to measure ground motion and infrasound activities.
Hella expensive, though.
This module encapsulates the access for the serial port. It provides backends for Python running on Windows, OSX, Linux, BSD (possibly any POSIX compliant system) and IronPython. The module named "serial" automatically selects the appropriate backend.
A company that makes lots of specialized shields and hats for the RasPi and Arduino. Antennae, cellular radios, IoT modules, sensors, feedlines, connectors, adapters, and kits.
A directory of known Arduino shields.
A company that makes and sells components, new hardware, and software for classic 8-bit computers.
The first of several wiki pages at elinux.org which comprise a hardware compatibility list for the Raspberry Pi. You might want to have this page loaded on your phone or tablet when you go shopping for new peripherals.
