A kid just built a DIY digital camera using a dev board and an industrial camera module. Not a toy. An actual working camera. Some teenagers today can already build things that once required an entire engineering team. The future is going to look very different.

Chinese education is something else, most kids his age can only build in Minecraft

Well, he took a bunch of parts that work together and that's great. But he didn't engineer a camera from scratch which is what your "some teens today can..." statement is suggesting.

That's not really DIY it's just an SBC with a camera module and some software that a AI chat could cobble together from existing demos and how-to's. This is like AI grifters exclaiming the vibe coded a snake game. No they did a #CopyPastiche of existing stuff. I did more as kid..

That’s actually pretty impressive!

Hmm, interesting. Discoloration. Blue or not blue, that is the question! 🧐

Yeah. "Those Chinese they can't innovate. They just copy our stuff." The competition with China is already over. SMH

@baoshaoshan His DIY camera takes better pix than my Samsung 🤭

Remarkable ingenuity. Accessible hardware democratizes engineering and accelerates conservation technology. Young innovators now build tools that protect our ecosystems.

Putting a lens on a camera dev board now as easy as screwing in a light bulb. Good to hear you don't need an entire engineering team to do that anymore.

Hmmm, interesting. The sound of "click" without speaker.🧐

In India we don't see such kids. We are an anti R&D system.

"industrial camera module" 😂

Fake. CHinese propaganda. Fuck outta my country

Thi diy camera takes better pictures than my Leica 👍

Because 1/8 are Aliens 😄

😍I want my future daughter to be exactly like him😊👍🏻

China people are so intelligent.

The future of Chinese camera.

I bet his testosterone levels have leveled up after building it.

Yep that’s how cameras work

Curious to see the outcome

👍👍🏅

Bu Çinliler merdivenaltı atölyelerde bile akıllı telefon üretiyorlar. 20 yıl önce bir arkadaşın elinde Çin'in merdivenaltlarında üretilen markasız kaçak bir telefon vardı. Blackberry gibi büyük bir ekran ve tuş takımı olan bir telefon. Ekran dokunmatik idi (kalem ile). Telefonun teleskopik bir anteni vardı. fm radyosu dinlenebiliyor, karasal uhf televizyon yayınları izlenebiliyordu. Fakat inovasyonda biz Türkleri kimse geçemez. Bizi bütün dünya kıskanıyor çünkü biz merdivenaltında eşşek sucuğu üretiyoruz.

La Chine n'a pas fini de nous étonner pendant que l'occident s'éffondre.

While the west keeps pushing kids towards god knows what lgbtq and gender shiy

WOW !!! 😮

My nephew is the same way—he’s into all sorts of things I don’t understand. But I know that our country will become even stronger because of this generation of young people
