This took a lot longer than I thought it would take: designed a custom antenna for the #frc x #onboard trinket. It's specifically tuned for biz card. Some additional resources for y'all curious in designing your own: • NFC Antenna Design Webinar • Key equation: Ideal Inductance = 1/( (2pi freq)^2 chip_capacitance)) • Impedance Calculator • Antenna footprint generator

Working on how the castles enclosures are gonna look!!! This is just a preliminary model and design, I suspect the final product to be much different from this but you have to start somewhere!

I think working on my traffic light (#seans-traffic-light-project) was part of my 100 days goals (I can't read my handwriting so it is now lol). Anyway. Here's the final design for the main part of the Sequencer / Controller (The distribution / somewhat control board) #100-days

I would love some feedback on the content of this website (not design) What does it convey to you? If you did not know what Steve was, how well or poorly do you grasp the concept?

I brought Boing to school for a robotics demo. It’s very cozy in the bag

thoughts on gifs?

Day #93 to 2024! Got CircuitPython running on Adafruit Neopixels thanks to @Cheru. Eventually I want to build the grid from scratch (soldering will be a pain in the a**), but for now this is really cool
