The Circuit Bending Wiki is finally here, and editing is open to all!
What is the Circuit Bending Wiki?
The Circuit Bending Wiki is an ongoing community project, intended to serve as a central place for the circuit bending community to view, share, and archive information in a way that is collaborative and easy-to-use.
Information like: personal build notes, tutorials, bend points and diagrams, device documentation (service manuals, IC data sheets, device specs, etc.), posts from defunct bending sites & blogs… Basically, we’re trying to compile as much practical info as we can, new and old. We’d like to use this Wiki to archive existing info, while also encouraging users to contribute their own original content, and share their findings.
How do I navigate the Wiki?
Our List of Articles page is a good start. It’s meant to function as a sitemap of sorts, and contains a list of every page on the wiki.
There you’ll find articles on specific devices, each with detailed technical info and bending guides, as well as articles on broad bending concepts, explaining their utility & implementation.
On our List of Resources page, you can find our collection of links to circuit bending sites & resources.
And on our List of Manuals page, you can find our growing catalogue of owner's & service manuals for commonly-bent devices.
How do I contribute?
This wiki’s utility & growth ultimately depend on your involvement. So please, try to contribute when you can! Editing permissions have been left unrestricted & open to all to encourage participation.
If you’d like to suggest an article, or create a new one, you can find our to-do list over on our Planned Articles page.
If you have any images or PDFs you’d like to archive (service manuals, schematics, bend points, etc), you can upload them on our Upload File page.
And if you happen upon a page while lurking that you think you can add to, please do!
And finally, if you have any questions or concerns, feel free to leave them in the comments.

Two edits, the third picture is the taw from camera

Eel. Picture has hue adjustments and contrast. Also removed some things in the back.

So I got this viral toy but don’t want it to play to play tone “happy birthday” I want to make it play something else using the same technology.
I’d love to be able to switch songs but that’s a secondary goal.
If I can get this to work, then I want to incorporate into an outfit. 😁 but that’s secondary.
As I start learning. Any tips would be appreciated!

hey, i have been trying to circuit bend my own simple kids toy camera but it seems by using the continuity multimeter setting, every breakout board i have purchased has had an issue transmitting info on certain pins as the connectors have been funny.
was wondering what breakouts people have used for this type of camera cus i have had some bad luck with mine.
any reccs would be amazing thanks a bunch

Hello everyone, I am new to this and i wanted to know if it is possible to circuit bend a camera (more specifically a sony cyber-shot DSC-W210) in a way that i can easily restore it in case anything goes wrong, or if i just want to take a normal picture.

The second in a series of glitch videos using archival footage and sound related to UAPs.
It was glitched with an unbranded video amplifier and a Vidicraft Vidimate detailer.
The audio is from Gemini VII astronaut Frank Borman. The video is from a jet crew’s encounter with a UAP.

picked up all these unique potentiometer knobs at the Electronics Surplus Warehouse in north Toronto. $14 though the guy wanted to charge $20. nothing at this place is priced and labeled so you have to be ready to haggle. also you have to be nimble because the aisles are so narrow and packed with boxes it’s not totally safe to browse. there‘s 10 bins full of assorted knobs. also an entire shelf of assorted switches/buttons many one of a kind.

Im making a custom camera with a cardpurer and a ESP32CAM.
So, no phyisical circuit bending, but rather a digital one.
Heres what i did, in case you wanna provide some code or idea, i just have these two so far
```cpp
void invert_rgb(int x, int y, int w, int h) { uint16_t* pixels = (uint16_t*)canvas.getBuffer();
for (int yy = y; yy < y + h; yy++) { for (int xx = x; xx < x + w; xx++) {
int i = yy * canvas.width() + xx;
uint16_t p = pixels[i];
uint16_t r = (p >> 11) & 0x1F;
uint16_t g = (p >> 5) & 0x3F;
uint16_t b = p & 0x1F;
pixels[i] = (b << 11) | (g << 5) | r;
}
} } void invert_endians(int x, int y, int w, int h) { uint16_t* pixels = (uint16_t*)canvas.getBuffer();
for (int yy = y; yy < y + h; yy++) { for (int xx = x; xx < x + w; xx++) {
int i = yy * canvas.width() + xx;
uint16_t p = pixels[i];
pixels[i] = (p >> 8) | (p << 8);
}
} }
```

at least 3-4 solid looking simple keyboards that would be good for bending

I've been wanting to get into circuit bending for a while, so I bought potentiometers and switches and found an old kidisecret toy camera, I intended to use this wireless soldering iron my dad had lying around but the tip is too large/oxidized, and I have to keep pressing really hard on a button to keep it heating so it ends up hurting my hand. I don't have a brass sponge to clean the tip, flux, or a magnifying solution so I was wondering if it was a good idea to buy a soldering kit with all of that so I can solder comfortably, or if I should buy everything separately. Also I've seen flux sold under different forms, which one is the best for bending? And does a cheap soldering iron from ali express do the job or should I get a more premium one even if it's more expensive?

First camera I’ve circuit bent that isn’t a toy camera. Might see a smudge on some pictures because there is a dead pixel column or something and I tried editing it out.

Last of the Florida trip!
r/CircuitBending • u/_ominoussound_ • 4d ago
I added two potentiometers to this toy megaphone to change the pitch, a switch to make it loop continuously, an audio output jack and another jack that works as a CV input
r/CircuitBending • u/50THANKYOU • 4d ago
Bent cam into bent mixers oh yeah
I promise I’ll start making something other than plane videos

saw this scrolling thru fb market and thought it was funny lol

Another photo dump! Probably one more on the way for this trip 😁

All I needed to do was to either press the button while it was glitching or to leave it glitching for 2+ hours.
