An unexpected cold shower made it clear that I need a new controller for our solar warm water heating system ("split architecture" which is typical for installation in middle and northern Europe - thanks @Saabman for helping me understand that I had...
Indeed, immediately after running the Windows software in a VM with the device connected I was getting a live data log of the CO₂ concentration! This screenshot shows me breathing into the vicinity of the sensor:Ok, time to disconnect the device from...

The STM32 board was just a hair bigger than the PIC, but the biggest pieces are still the power switch, channel button, & battery. The plan is just to print an L enclosure which scotch tapes around the hot shoe & sticks up. The antenna will...
It was dumb to use a DC motor for this project. I should have just ponied up the resources for a high speed stepper. My plan was to attach a rotary encoder to the DC motor to accurately measure the number of rotations. This is not easy....First, I tried...
For quite some time I have been thinking about the possibility to using a laptop to run all the heavy OpenPlotter and OpenCPN stuff instead of using a Raspberry Pi. The performance of the RPi is... well it's usable but it's not a pleasant user experience....
Previously, while rummaging for scan codes, I was correlating known behaviour with key codes. One of those keys was the Clear File key (0x56). I forgot to post about that find, but it's still worthwhile to mention the file clearing operation...
