Really Mike, why a TMD-3? Before I talk about what TMD-3 will be, I would like to give a brief overview of Turing machines, the TMD-1 and TMD-2 designs, and what prompted me to want to do a TMD-3. Turing Machines 101 The Turing machine was invented in...
The story behind this project Every now and then I would find the need for a differential probe. I’d end up using a high voltage diff probe, which you've probably seen lurking around most electronics labs – the ones housed in a large rectangular box...
One of the most demanding applications for fast arithmetic is digital flitering. Atmel application note AVR201 shows how to use the hardware multiplier to make a multiply-and-accumulate operation (MAC). The MAC is the basis for computing the sum of terms...
My Project Rationale: A 600 foot deep well provides water to my house. The well only produces 8 gallons/hour. Therefore I also have a 1700 gallon cistern to store the water before it is pumped into the house for use. There is a float valve that turns...
Time-lapse:Table of contents: SummaryCPURAMVGAKeyboardPower DeliveryComponents 1. Summary This project is a physical implementation of the Hack Computer, as described in the From Nand To Tetris course. The course describes the hardware design of...
Thursday, 08:31, 24/08/2023 Well, morning. By the time that I actually start making the exo/endo-skeleton, it will be buried under 3983932382 project logs. ... But I think this is relevant, because I need to talk about Dielectric Elastomers...
An Integer Version of the DemodulatorAs the code will be ported to a lowly Arduino using C code, I first looked at if I could use 16 bit signed integers. The answer is strictly yes. Strictly in that the 32 bit result of a 16 bit multiplication is not...
Turing Machines 101 The Turing machine was invented in 1936 by Alan Turing. By providing a mathematical description of a very simple device capable of arbitrary computations, he was able to prove the properties of computation in general. A...
Top 3 struggles I have with robots and how this project solved them. 1) Cost too much. Mostly because of expensive servos and high end processors. - Designed a cheap driver/sensor board to read the absolute angle of the motor joint and run the...
(this project log is looking like a schizophrenic conversation with myself, bruh) Project Log 52: 3D modelling Attempt 7. (I'm previously writting this on a notepad because I'm testing if not creating a project log helps my anxiety. It is ironic...
15/10/2023, 09:49, Sunday. Well, good morning. I was planning on making this project log on 26 of november, which would be the 1 year anniversary of this waste of time of a project. But I will make this now because I need to take this...
