Privacy shouldn’t be a luxury. 🕵️‍♂️✨

Meet Privasee, our open-source hidden camera detector. Whether you’re in a hotel or an unfamiliar space, this handheld device is being designed to give you peace of mind.

Current Status:
✅ High-accuracy IR camera detection.
✅ Real-time proximity alerts.
🔋 Transitioning to a portable, battery-powered handheld shell.

What’s next? We’re looking into adding RF detection to catch even more types of cameras. 🛠️

Would you carry one of these in your travel bag? Let us know! ✈️

Engineering a greener thumb. 🪴✨

The OSHE Plant Saver is officially in its “glow-up” phase. We’ve moved from messy wires to this custom 3D-printed setup that tracks everything your plants need to stay happy.

What it does:
☀️ Measures light, moisture, and humidity.
💾 Compares data to a built-in plant database.
📟 Gives you instant care tips on an OLED screen.

Low cost, open source, and student-built. Swipe to see the hardware up close! 📸

The “Design Check-off” crunch is REAL. 🛠️⚡️

This week in the OSHE lab, it’s all about meeting the specs we set back in January. Months of CAD, PCB layouts, and firmware debugging are finally hitting the finish line.

Swipe for a sneak peek at the hardware currently on the benches. 📸

Ever lost hours of work because of a 2-second power flicker? 🔌❌

This OSHE team is building a solution so that never happens again. Meet the UPS Project! A “UPS” is basically a backup battery that kicks in the millisecond your wall power fails, but for your own raspberry pi computer.

One of the greatest tools in Open Source? Reliable 3D printers. 🛠️

Thanks to one of our sponsors, Miller Electric, OSHE just leveled up with a fleet of Core Ones! With their lightning-fast print speeds and fully enclosed design, our members can iterate faster than ever.

Check out these Core One timelapses, watching that first layer hit is pure productivity magic. ✨

🚀 Stop by our booth at Enterprise Day!

We’re building open-source hardware that anyone can learn from, modify, and improve, and we want YOU to be part of it.

Work hard, play harder. 🤫

Meet Noki, our resident “Harbinger of Names,” who stole everyone’s names during an intense game of Heads Up 7 Up.

Whether we’re soldering or socializing, there’s always a seat at the table for you. Come for the hardware, stay for the chaos!

Meet the OSHE-Reader 📱: our student-led mission to build a better, cheaper, and completely open-source e-reader.

We spent last semester building the "brain" and "bones" of the device, from custom battery circuits to a 3D-printed case and a custom EPUB reader algorithm.

This semester, we’re putting it all together into one sleek, unified device.

Want to help us build the future of open hardware? We’re always looking for engineers, designers, and thinkers to help us take projects like this from proof-of-concept to reality.

The Synthesizer team has finished the prototype PCB using the DSP based design. Now, we have to finalize the enclosure setup, and it'll be ready to publish the designs~
