How it Started Originally made as a portable wearable display into VR, this is a project that evolved into being an actual PC separate from VR, but can mesh with a VR headset as I'll outline further in this article. 1. What is it? This is a modular...
Why Another Turing Machine Project? This started with a comment made by Newspaperman5: "Sweet! I would love a smaller and/or more capable version of [TMD-1] as a desk toy!", and it made me realize that I did too! I loved messing around...
OverviewOpenBionics is an open-source initiative for the development of affordable (< 200$), light-weight (< 300 gr) prosthetic hands, that can be easily reproduced using off-the-shelf materials. More details can be found at the following publication:George...
Inline pics to be added later.I have been printing on a ceramic floor tile with decent results as long as it was warmed first (heat gun). As I didn't want to destroy my only working printbed, I looked around for something similar locally. Nothing was...
Using a wheelchair for someone who is used to walking about normally brings the need for new learned behaviours and precautions. The most common and dangerous problem I have encountered with Mom is that she forgets to set the Brakes when getting into...
Pi Zero Ducky For a while now I’ve been really interested in Hak5’s USB Rubber Ducky, but I just couldn't bring myself to spend $45+ on something I really have no use for. Coincidentally I’ve also had a Pi Zero sitting on my office desk for a few months...
Need for Bionic Systems People have always have a craze towards fitness and sports. Ultimately it has lead to the development of sports and several sports are played at international level. It provides entertainment for fans and gives out the importance...
My first attempt used flexible TPU filament to replicate the rubber tubing in place. The proved to be a failure, the TPU does not do a good job of holding pressure. The next try used PLA. The first picture shows what the first version looked like post...
3D printed prosthetic hands are a classic project. I wanted to do something creative, but I wanted there to be an honest possibility that my work would contribute to actual real life prosthesis development. The only 3D printed prosthesis costing less...
Like many other hackers / content creators, I use a lot of design applications, from cad applications, pcb design applications, to graphics design applications like photoshop and premier pro. A mouse and a keyboard; while often sufficient for interacting...
WHY? The problem Since some years "retro-games" have become very trendy and a lot of solutions have emerged in this new retro-business. When it comes to spending money just to play, are we getting mad? It feels more about collecting...
i. Concept- Is the project creative, original, functional, and pushing boundaries? Does the project effectively address the selected challenge?the design is innovative as I do not know of any other 3D printed solutions available when I tried searching...
This is a fairly straight forward build the way I did it. Rather than re-invent the wheel, I used as many off the shelf components as possible. The 555 timers were pre-built modules that came on small circuit boards. I changed their pots to get...
Before doing anything, I had to remove all the grass and dirt build-up under the deck (figure 1). This took quite a while, since it was never done that much, apart from unclogging the grass path to the catcher. Figure 1: This is what 12 years of grass...
