Project choices and the mission As stated in the summary, my goal is to provide an open solution to the bipedal walking problem, in order to give others a starting point and source of inspiration. This includes hardware designs, drawings, assembly plans,...
What it can do: This radio telescope takes pictures in radio (on frequencies between 10.7Ghz and 12.75GHz). Theoretically, this radio telescope should be able to take pictures of the sky, in radio. If the dish is aimed properly, the results should create...
You can find the schematic ready to edit and go on EasyEDA here. Source code for the Arduino sketch is attached and below. Note that it uses the TimerOne library to provide higher-resolution Timer1 frequency control for the Pulse Width Modulation to...
Project Overview Video for Hackaday Prize 2023: The End Result The Plan In principle it is simple: by connecting different combinations of binary value resistors in parallel, and assuming a constant input voltage, we can consume any arbitrary amount...

Sample Below is a sample of the serial monitor output window. Cycle #89 Clear distance to front: 0-In 0-Cm Temperature: 21-C 71-F System Arming State: Disarmed Transmission State: Neutral Turn State: Going Straight Spin State: Not Spinning Throttle...
Details, details ,details..... It's alive. (The electronics/coding is actually the easy part...) The real challenge is those semi-translucent tubes... Found some cheap transparent tubes at Home Depot used for storing flourescent light-bulbs. 1 1/2 "...
This was a project a few months in the making. I originally started it while I was still at SpaceX but really got to focus on it right before burning man 2013. I really wanted an 8 ft long carbon fiber staff with a ton of full bright white capable RGB...
Two weeks ago, I set off to a business trip to Germany, which is also my home country. I always try to have a few days of vacation included in such a trip in order to be able to visit my family. And what does a father with his son living in another country...
In the original configuration, the airswimmer is propelled by the tail fin, which can be flapped left-to-right using the remote. The whole fish can also be tilted up or down by moving the gondola, which holds the battery and receiver, forward and back...
The first thing I noticed is that by twisting the line until it self-coils into a tight spiral doesn't work very well, since the tight coil doesn't have much room to stretch out and retract like a spring. What I did was twist the line to the point just...
I've been busy with other projects, summer and the day job, but here's an update on the Pinstax. After weeks of perking this project through my brain, I enjoyed some frenzied productivity as ideas came to 3D printed reality. One of the problems...
piculearThis incomplete but slowly progressing project has the ultimate goal of producing a reliable PIC ICSP programmer that just works and can be more readily picked apart, examined, and/or replaced than a comparable Microchip programmer (for instance,...
