One of the most iconic devices from the science fiction universe of Star Trek is the Tricorder, a handheld device often used for scanning, analysis, and recording. There have been many officially-licensed toy Tricorders and Tricorder-themed phone cases over the years, but one dedicated tinkerer has made his own functional clone.
Imgur user Himmelen has posted photos of his homemade Tricorder, showing off a 3D-printed folding device that looks much like the prop from Star Trek shows and films (via HackADay). The top section has a small LCD screen and a USB port, while the lower half has a working button panel and another display.
“This is a fully custom cyberdeck-ish project ive been building during the pandemic that I’ve styled after a Tricorder from Star Trek,” the creator said in a Reddit thread. He mentioned the device is powered by a Raspberry Pi Zero, a small single-board computer, fitted with a GPS module and NESDR RTL-SDR radio. The keyboard alone is an impressive achievement, as it’s connected to an external Arduino Nano (another single-board device) that handles input, then sends the results to the Raspberry Pi.
If you want to check out all the photos, head on over to the full Imgur album. The Reddit thread also has a few more comments from the creator on the build process.

Ever wondered what Alexander The Great’s face looked like while he was plotting his next military conquest? Or Albert Einstien casually smiling in a eureka moment after cracking the mass-energy conversion code? Or your grandfather rocking his cowboy hat and a badass handlebar? If yes, then MyHeritage’s mind-bending AI project will do just that and fulfill your wish.
Aptly named Deep Nostalgia, this AI needs just a picture of someone’s face to create a short clip of around 15 seconds with eerily accurate facial movements and an overall smooth flow. And yes, the results are impressive and creepy to equal measure. Don’t believe me? Just visit this page, upload a picture of your great-grandma, and see her come to life in a short clip in just about 10-15 seconds.
The AI is groundbreaking, and it actually sounds appealing on paper, especially when it comes to having an opportunity of imagining your deceased relatives and ancestors appear lively. But history buffs, including me, are having a gala time with it right now, experimenting it even on mummies and statues of historical figures ranging from Plato to Alexander the Great. Have a look at some of the results:
With our new Deep Nostalgia, you can see how a person from an old photo could have moved and looked if they were captured on video! Read more: https://t.co/ZwUwzJRQ26 #RootsTech #RootsTechConnect pic.twitter.com/LERXhrqiut

MyHeritage says it has licensed a photo animating technology from D-ID that relies on machine learning for facial re-enactment. “The Deep Nostalgia feature uses several drivers prepared by MyHeritage. Each driver is a video consisting of a fixed sequence of movements and gestures. Deep Nostalgia can very accurately apply the drivers to a face in your still photo, creating a short video that you can share with your friends and family. The driver guides the movements in the animation so you can see your ancestors smile, blink, and turn their heads,” says the company in the FAQ section.
And in case you’re wondering, yes, it can animate all the faces in a yellowing family portrait. However, you have to click on each face to individually see the animated clip. Right now, you have to sign up in order to animate a photo, and depending on the complexity, it may take anywhere between 10-20 seconds to bring a picture to life. And yes, it works for both color and monotone pictures. Your turn next, Google!
