Once you have mastered the basic blinking leds, simple sensors and sweeping servos, it’s time to move on to bigger and better projects.  That usually involves combining bits and pieces of simpler sketches and trying to make them work together.  The first thing you will discover is that some of those sketches that ran perfectly by […]

General Description The HMCAD1512 is a versatile high performance low power analog-to-digital converter (ADC), utilizing time-interleaving to increase sampling rate. Integrated Cross Point Switches activate the input selected by the user. The device contains 2 ADCs that can be interleaved by the user to act as a single channel or two channels. In single channel […]

My sensors have not been functioning too well with my computer, as every time I try to connect the hello.light or hello.mic boards and run python through my terminal, I either get the error “resource busy”, or my computer completely freezes! Therefore, I decided to try and program some sensors via an Arduino board and […]

According to Ancient Greek mythology, Artemis and Apollo were immortal twins born ages ago on a rocky island in the Aegean Sea. Artemis, her hunting bow poised and fleet feet padding the forest floor, reigned as Goddess of the Moon. Her twin brother, Apollo, strummed his harp and recited poetry from his throne as God […]

The Smartphone Quick-Jack Solution repurposes the standard 3.5mm stereo audio jack found on most smartphones into a self-powered data channel that makes communication with these smartphones as easy as plugging a headset jack into the audio port. The hardware/software platform is designed for iPhone® and Android® smartphones. This project will make it easy to connect […]

This is a trial and error / design and development process which I followed in developing a camera slider for creating time-lapse video clips on my DSLR camera. The idea came from using standard Aluminium extrusions I have available at hardware stores, and create a slider chassis / dolly which is able to slide along […]

It’s not often that I finish the various small projects I undertake. Tesla coils, mass spectrometers, automated tomato plant watering systems, homebrew heaters have all been conceived and sometimes parts bought and assembled with some even making it as far as working. This project however made it all the way to finished. Torchy Oriole Bike […]

Often government data sets available to us online are taken from major nearby metropolitan areas or infrastructural centers. With an easy to follow introduction to new softwares and technologies the “urban sensor kit” allows anyone to obtain location specific information and share that information with a growing community of designers, researchers, and many others. This […]

Everybody wants to know how many pageviews your own website has. But see what’s happening you need some analytics code and stuff like this. I wanted to be connected to the wold when I’m sitting on my couch so I connected my Lucky Cat to the internet. Whenever someone visits a page on my website […]
