Step 1 Insert lipo battery into the battery holder Step 2 Solder five 150mm wires to +3, D-, D+, GND, and LED (TO MAIN BOARD). Solder two 85-90mm wires to +3 and GND (TO SEC-ENC BOARD) Step 3 Solder five 150mm wires to M1, M2, M3, M4 and M5 (TO...
With the communication system working, one of the final major tasks left was constructing the AUV. Our initial designs for the AUV were pretty simplistic, as we did not realize the enormity of the many mechanical challenges involved in getting a vehicle...
The Basics I found a plan on this website. It's not a bad start but the design misses a few key dimensions - we had to work out a few of them with a bit of maths. Still, it's something. We built the cabinet out of 12mm plywood which is quite strong,...
There are many methods to add extension sensing capabilities to a telescoping pole. We summarized seven unique sensing methods in our infographic image, comparing the pros and cons between the different methods. More details regarding each method are...
Step 1: Gather Your Components Laser XY Scanner - BOM I usually like to source my parts from DigiKey, but the low-cost options on Amazon are hard to beat sometimes. This list is just one of many sources for each component in the BOM. There are of...

Once the system is turned on by an AT switch, the camera starts capturing frames from the user's face/head and the image processing take place through computer vision techniques. The head gesture recognition task is performed by the combination of two...
I made a status indicator that notifies me of my body's relative state of arousal! To help me visualize what's going on with the myriad of wearables I have set out to don at once, I've created an arm-mounted screen display that will tell me what I need...
This step is actuall not a port of WinDIY. It is more related to the generator you choose to use in the end. But i though it's cool to have it here as a reference how the brake actuator is made and constructed. :)The generator is held by a bracket in...
One component that is supposed to make WinDIY more secure is the pitch actuator. It allows the wing’s angle of attack to be changed via a push rod. In case of an emergency (e.g. if the speed is too high) the angle of attack can then be changed so that...
So that the construction articles for WinDIY do not become too extensive, I have divided the construction into several articles. A certain component such as the wing built. Of course, these individual components have to be brought together at some point....
