Arduino PicoEnigma Simulator

PicoEnigma
by @arduinoenigma

Arduino Enigma recently developed the tiny PicoEnigma, a universal physical Enigma simulator only 4 inch or 10 cm in size. He already made the Enigma Uno, Mega Enigma, Enigma Z30, and even build the Enigma Uhr switch for the plugboard.

Visit his PicoEnigma page for more details. The Arduino Enigma blog has the complete family of Enigma sims and many technical details on all projects. The circuit boards are found at Oshpark. Arduino Enigma is also on Youtube. The unique hand-made PicoEnigma and other types are available on eBay and on tindie.

Meanwhile, there's a race going on at the Enigma World Code Group forum to see who can build the smallest physical Enigma simulator. Incredible how they manage to build those tiny things. Just for fun, but technically true pieces of art.

I already wrote about his tiny touch screen Enigma Uno in 2014,  but he just couldn't stop creating different new versions in various sizes.

Visit Cipher Machines and Cryptology to learn everything about the fascinating Enigma cipher machine, how it was used by the German military during WWII and the Enigma Sim software for PC.
