In this video Maria takes you on a guided tour through the March/April 2021 edition of Elektor Magazine. This edition is quite special as it was created in collaboration with Sparkfun, the well-known manufacturer of popular open-source hardware and sensor modules from the US of A.

Bonus Articles

A lot of content was produced for this edition. Many, many articles were written, so many that they didn’t fit all in one printed magazine. But nothing will be lost as the articles that didn’t make it into print will be made available online for free.
