OSHW Embedded Ethernet Switch

OSHW Embedded Ethernet Switch launched on December 3, 2023 with 12 votes, #978 of 3,780 launches that month and more than 75% of that year's launches. The site was still online in September 2026, 2 years on.

In plain words

OSHW Embedded Ethernet Switch is an open-source hardware product that provides ethernet switching capabilities for embedded systems. Designed for developers and engineers working on robotics and networked projects, it enables reliable network connectivity in constrained environments. The product launched in December 2023 and is maintained by Murex Robotics, making it accessible to those building custom hardware solutions requiring ethernet integration.

From the sources

MUREX Robotics is Phillips Exeter Academy’s High School Underwater Robotics Team competing in the MATE Underwater ROV Competition. We have a grand vision: to democratize technology for all. Despite being just a high school robotics team, MUREX strives to uphold that standard in every way possible. We’ve yet again made a stride towards out ambitious dream in a recent project regarding the networking system of out underwater ROV. While designing the new electrical system for the MUREX ROV, we realized the need for an embedded (and small) Ethernet switch. We needed something to connect our custom CM4-based control board, PLC module, and vision system –– consisting of multiple IP cameras.…from murexrobotics.com

    Hello, we're Max and Byran from MUREX Robotics, a high school robotics team from Exeter, New Hampshire. We are super proud to have made this open source piece of technology! It is only 6.9 dollars (actually!) from JLCPCB :) I hope you like it. You can find us at [email protected] and [email protected] as well if you have any questions. We will be putting a small run of these boards for sale somewhere (we have <25 units of stock), probably for $10+shipping. Let us know if you're interested in more! Board files for everything we make is here:…

    We've just launched v2.5 of SatCat5, the open-source FPGA Ethernet switch [1]. SatCat5 contains various FPGA building blocks that let you build a custom mixed-media Ethernet switch. It was originally intended for cubesats [2] but has many other potential applications. The headline feature for this release is support for the IEEE-1588 Precision Time Protocol (PTP). SatCat5 has demonstrated end-to-end synchronization to within 50 ps-rms, which is approaching the world-leading performance of CERN's White Rabbit Project [3]. Except we're doing time-transfer over regular, non-synchronous…

    Hi HN, we build an open-source operating system extension for orchestrating robot swarms fully decentralized. This first beta version allows you to create fully decentralized robot swarms. The system will set up a wireless mesh network and run a p2p networking stack on top of it, such that nodes can interact with each other through various abstractions using our SDKs (Rust, Python, TypeScript) or a CLI. We hope this is a step toward better inter-robot communication (and a fun project if you have a few Raspberry Pis lying around). Our mesh network is created by B.A.T.M.A.N.-adv and we’ve…

  • Hi HN! I’m proud to share that we have built a real 3rd party iMessage client for Android. We did it by reverse engineering the iMessage protocol and encryption system. It's available to download today (no waitlist): https:&#x2F;&#x2F;play.google.com&#x2F;store&#x2F;apps&#x2F;details?id=com.beeper.ima and there's a technical writeup here: https:&#x2F;&#x2F;blog.beeper.com&#x2F;p&#x2F;how-beeper-mini-works. Unlike every other attempt to build an iMessage app for Android (including our first gen app), Beeper Mini does not use a Mac server relay in the cloud. The app connects directly to Apple…

  • Hey! I made Heynote entirely for my own use case. For many years, I always had an Emacs instance running with the scratch buffer open, even long after I had abandoned Emacs as my programming editor in favor of more recent IDE:s. The simplicity of having just one big scratch buffer appeals to me, but I still want to separate the different things I jot down somehow (without using tabs or similar). Previously, my solution was to insert a bunch of blank lines between the notes, but hitting C-A would still select the entire buffer. That's why I came up with the concept of "blocks", which turned…
