List of projects started or TODO:- Arduino Blindshutter (half made but then left it because it was boring, may get done it one day)- ESP8266 boards. Problem at the moment with USB-RS232 adapters. Lack of power shouldn't be the issue. CP2102 chip couldn't...
My usual way to power something with 5V? An old cell phone power supply. My usual way to power something with 3.3V? An old cell phone power supply, connected to a 3.3V arduino micro. That has to stop, so I asked my dad for an old power supply he surely...
---------- more ----------Arduino Open Source Hardware PlatformArduino is an open source hardware platform for making interactive objects that can sense and control the physical world. Since 2005, a worldwide community of "makers" has flocked to this...
WORKING CONCEPT:Over the last few months been accumulating several versions of cubieboards single-board computers. I want to build (not a server...) but an automatic, stacked, robotic archive. The general idea is not entirely done yet, but it would be...
Seems like I have to build a captain Kirk chair sooner or later. Although you know you bought it cheap, it's always disturbing to know that a chair just broke under your weight. I'm thinking of a chair using rollers you'd see on a shopping cart, a rotating...
I once successfully tested 4066 CMOS switch to initiate a keypress on an etched smartphone pad "substrate" with membrane removed. I was interested in having Arduino dial a cell phone interfaced with a 4066 switch matrix. I think the November Nuts-Volts...
RX'd 975 watts solar panels today. Paid $1/watt including shipping for these. Fingerprints in corners from handling before encapsulating resin was fully dry, seems to be the blemish. These are new high efficiency SUN product. I will use a PWM controller,...
As part of the recurring competition on hackaday I managed to score some winnings!Sadly Mr Postman had other ideas than delivering my items when arrived so that's why I'm late to the game...This is my first Teensy board so after a quick Google-session...
Apply Trigonometry to determine point to point length of the rear brace, and its point of intersection with the main inclined panel support. Result is a support surface for solar panels at desired inclination. Screws fasten the panels to wood above and...
I lost all the images here! Links and uploads! :( slowly rebuilding... Project Ideas... In order of most-recently-listed, first (read from the bottom-up):12-5-18: YES! 10-24-18: https://hackaday.com/2018/10/24/av-synth-is-psychedelic-analog-mayhem/...
I engaged in some serious whiteboard tangenting last night on the subject of artificial muscles. Keep reading if you're bored as hell; this is a long-winded post.I also took a bunch of close-up pictures, most of which ended up pretty blurry. My D40 never...
A mini mixer for headphone-use of cellphone and notebook at the same time.Now that I've seen Jurassic World, I want to have a robot velociraptor!A little TFT screen combined with a SD card reading dev board showing images of the most common basic electronic...
I'll post a page outlining my solar electrical installation, now ready for state inspection.Earth ground bonds include solar negative, disconnect switch enclosure chassis, main panel chassis, solar controller chassis with both negative potentials, battery...
Hi there! Call for the community voice!my project at: IOTsatcom projectI need help to decide if to add extra features or not, to be specific:* Do you prefer a modular design or to have everything integrated on a single PCB board?Please, could you give...
Renewable energy is generally defined as energy that comes from resources which are naturally replenished on a human timescale such as sunlight, wind, rain, tides, waves and geothermal heat. Renewable energy replaces conventional fuels in four distinct...
