The whole project is under active development and almost every key part of it is already working for itelf, at least in an early stage. When everything comes together, the system will be able to provide the following functionality:Light Controlswitch...
New Python version schlieren_6.py with many new features:- record video as MP4 avi or image sequence (needs scikit-video because of OpenCV bug)- all functions accessible via command line options.- reduced noise in image processing by means of frame stacking...
I built this remote control car as a demo of the Pi Platter after I found an old Sparkfun two-wheel base at my makerspace, Solid State Depot. I hacked the base so it would accept 4 control signals (Direction and PWM speed for each motor) and added a...

How can we solve the challenge of detecting elephants in order to provide local people with advance warning of their presence? Advance warning being particularly useful in that it can: a.) prevent people stumbling upon elephants unaware and spooking...
Goals: - An easy way to call different automated functions that anyone off the street could use. - A voice response from the robot. - Multiple useful automated functions on an expandable platform.Accomplishments so far:-Teleoperated through a WIFI network...
Hello!I was suffering writer's block and so about a month ago I restarted from scratch and it has been SO GOOD. The system looks and runs better than ever before, there are more robots than ever before, and I am over the moon delighted at how much...
The first time a user encounters an interface, he uses the Facade iOS app to take a photo of the interface with a dollar bill, and sends the image to be processed and pushed to the crowd for manual labeling. The dollar bill is used to produced an image...
The first thing to think about when talking about precision is what is actually required. Finally the precision of the whole process is limited by nozzle size and the viscosity of molten plastic. The smallest usable nozzles are 200µm, 1/4 (50µm)...
Researching how to further improve our Venenfinder, we came across a filter that is used for detecting and isolating vessel-like structures (branches of trees; blood vessels). It is used to isolate the filigree structures of retinal blood vessels by...
This was a university project for my Robotics degree at UWE Bristol, UK. My aim was to see if Mekamon could be adapted cheaply to be used in education. I’ve just finished the degree but I’m interested in continuing this project or seeing other people...
The file for the non-ROS blob demo is “non_ROS_blobtracker.py” - Requires OpenCV and Adafruit_Python_BluefruitLE This demo is quite simple and far from perfect. BluefruitLE with BLueZ and DBus can be unreliable. It’s not clear to me where...
After 3D printing the parts, the next steps we had to take were to configure the electronics on the drone. Betaflight was used to configure the flight characteristics of the drone. First the accelerometer was calibrated, then the ESCs. Next the...
Stream interaction & input. STREAM! GET IT! BECAUSE ITS FOR A FISH :D - Install node.js and npm - Clone files to computer - https://github.com/hzoo/TwitchPlaysX/archive/master.zip - Node packages from command...
The Cocktail Machine consists of an image processing computer with a camera (R Pi 3), peristaltic pumps, and a weight scale. Computer program takes camera shots, and upon detection of something that is considered NSFW (not safe for work) activates the...
