Step 1: Test with Xenon and a relay. My old remote to garage was broken. So I made a small board with a relay. Then hook it up with a Xenon from Particle. However the Xenon by default is used for Mesh network. So I have to flashed a UF2 bootloader to...
I bought an 800XL machine with 1050 disk drive in 1985, when they were being sold off cheap. At last I had a machine I could save software on reliably, and keep me amused between graduating and getting a job. My friend had lots of software for it....
There are four main components:1. The control board (that I'm making myself)2. A Tamiya tank chassis and gearbox3. A raspberry Pi with web server and fcgi API1. The control boardGoing on Version 7 (Minified3).MCU used is AT32UC3L0.Using separate battery...
The circuit is very simple and it only consists of few components. For the regulated output to the sensors we have the LM317 adjustable voltage regulator, we have two 1N4007 diodes to prevent any reverse current flow in the event of a power loss, a 1k...
Motivation:This is one of those projects that came into existence just to see if it could be done. This won't save you any money, but looks super cool at LAN parties if you match the color of your 3D printer filament to the PSU ATX extension cables...
This 5-bar robot was designed with modularity in mind, so that not only you can make different components for the robot with relative ease, but also to easily visualize the changes on its task-space based on its current geometry. You can change the length...
To start this project I found a $5 used Samsung LCD display, RGB old style. Since I am using it for programming and learning I don't need high definition so RGB is fine. The first step was to see if the LCD worked. It seemed to power on fine and everything....
I wanted to make a portable outdoor sound system that actually sounded good, and could be heard.I didn’t think this was much of a hack, I am just connecting off the shelf stuff, but a friend said I should send it to hack-a-day. I go camping(if you can...
Makernet simplifies electronics projects and makes low-level hardware act more modular and abstracted like software. I want to enable makers -- especially young makers -- to build cool projects with minimal effort.See the concept video below:Everyone...
Here is a diagram of the first version of my switch. I used a simple arduino relay module as the relay. This worked in testing but once I tried with with my vacuum it failed. I didn't take into account how much amperage the vacuum...
This is the hConsole, a portable cyberdeck that you can build yourself, it is hold together using 6 M2 screws and brass inserts and it is powered by a Raspberry Pi 4 model B. This is the complete list of parts to make one yourself: 6xM2 8mm Screws6xM2...
When I originally designed the printed parts for my RosBot the Vertex's were made to only have one 15/15mm vertical extrusion per corner. Once I started building and had the frame together I noticed there was a lot of twist and wobbliness and not much...
A Bit Pushy is Pantri's first device! It's a cool little button that works with the Pantri API. Why would you want to have one? You'll end up with a swanky button that you can press to connect to the Pantri service where you track & re-order grocery...
Hackaday.io is all (mostly?) about sharing projects, so a key aspect should be how to create a project. I've made a couple but only rarely, so i forget the process. Looking around, about the only HELP available is this thing called Everything...
The mask is controlled by Arduino Lilypad board with FlashForth system installed on it. FlashForth has prebuilt firmwares for Arduino boards with ATmega328P running at 16 MHz. In the LilyPad board ATmega runs at 8 MHz. I tried to build FlashForth...
