Winter Hardware Wonderland #hardware-party There were complications in getting the Hack Club Bank to work and parts were slow to ship from overseas - but finally I got all the parts to work and here is the first prototype of the Triton Amphibious Rover! github.com/hackclub/winter/blob/main/thelouisgan.md The RC controlled rover features a LEGO Technic vehicle that I coupled with a motor, and for the water side of things I rigged an underwater motor and 3D printed rudder to a 25KG servo motor. All this is remotely controlled with an RC so that you can take it to explore different terrain and locations! It is also powered by a rechargeable LiPo battery and will be able to operate up to 15 minutes on a full charge in optimal conditions. Will update more photos and videos of it in action soon! Please do give feedback/suggestions as this is my first big scale project and thanks to @MelanieSmith and @belle for the support.

Mohan Day 6-10 days update - github.com/hackclub/winter/blob/main/vmss2009.md Finally I made it. Now, RFID reader is detecting the RFID card presented to it. Then a python module running on RPI is constantly listening to RFID. Once RFID card is detected, the code is updated to a JSON file. This JSON file is hosted in local host. FlutterFlow platform gets this JSON by posting GET request to the local host URI. Then FlutterFlow validates from Firestore database and gets relevant data to be displayed and shows it on monitor. Things to improve. - Refresh rate is currently around 30 secs. This needs to be reduced to 5 to 10 secs. i.e the time it takes for the data to show up once RFID card is presented by user. - I should make the hardware cheaper by eliminating RPI if possible! vmss2009-winter-hardware-party

WHW Day 10 I've uploaded my current progress all to GitHub

On day 6 of 10 for my #hardware-party, love is in the air 💗! It’s been 5 days since valentines day, and two new love-birds are chirping it up with each other, sending love letters (which just say “hello world”) to each other in an infinite loop. I finally figured out how to get picos to communicate over UART pins! My previous approach was using SoftwareSerial, and didn’t seem to work, but now I’m using the hardware serial pins instead of software serial pins over GPIO. Next step– get these communicating Picos to start passing on number values down a longer chain. Here’s the code! github.com/maxwofford/split-flap/commit/1a1f530d6a7c8b795dfb8643505b905b74a9e402

Day 5 of 10 for my split flap display! I had more troubles today trying to get my picos to talk to each other— I can pass a message to the first pics via usb serial, but the second pick isn’t getting the message. Somehow I broke one of them & it won’t even run the example blink program :( If anyone has used the SoftwareSerial library for arduino I’d love help figuring out what I did wrong! All my code is in github.com/maxwofford/split-flap

day 4 of 10 of the #hardware-party where i’m building a split-flap display. I’m flying today, and TSA wouldn’t let me take the 3d printer onboard. instead i’m writing the code right now! I don’t have a device in my hands and all the sensors and motors, so instead i’m writing a bunch of modules to test out with jobs like… • passing a message down a chain of microcontrollers • moving a stepper motor • reading sensor values Then, once I have the hardware back in my hands I can quickly test out each script to make sure it works & combine them into a single script that runs the whole thing! I’m dumping all the scripts into github.com/maxwofford/split-flap

Winter Wonderland Update I received my raspberry pi and assembled the case, and booted the pi, updated the pi OS, and got it setup to run the NodeJS and python environment needed for the Digi chess board. For the software I'll also be soon making a open source GitHub repo. Apart from that, couldn't do much today. I am also waiting on my hall effect sensors, and yes i did order them mid Jan from a reputed seller. For the mean time I have written some code that simulates arduino signals as if they were coming from the hall effect sensors. that's it for today!

Winter Hardware Wonderland Day 1 :winter-hardware-wonderland: #hardware-party A.L.F.R.E.D ButlerBot (PR here: github.com/hackclub/winter/blob/main/Captain-AJ.md) Welcome all to the start of a great adventure! I hope everyone is making great progress on their projects. Personally, I have started building my Autonomous food delivery bot: A.L.F.R.E.D. Which stands for Advanced, Little, Fit, Robot, Education, Device. Today I've just about finished the wheels of my robot, I had some trouble with the suspension due to screw tightness, but all is fixed now! Tomorrow I plan to make a basic remote-controlled robot for testing. I am currently learning about Arduino hardware and software and will start learning C and C++. That's all for now!

:winter-hardware-wonderland: Day 1 of #WinterHardwareWonderland :winter-hardware-wonderland: First of all, I love seeing the progress from different projects so early on! Nice job everyone! As for my project, I am creating an Interactive Digital Art Installation and MIDI Controller. For more info here’s the PR: github.com/hackclub/winter/blob/main/Amagtoto.md So… it was a busy day today so I did not get much done. However, since all the materials arrived considerably early we (my sisters and I) set up the 3D printer and did a couple wacky test prints. I have the cad for the MIDI controller case from the step-by-step tutorial I am following and am planning to print that asap. As for the digital art, I have familiarized myself with TouchDesigner over the past few weeks and so today I learned how to incorporate the webcam into the displays. I plan to set up the projector screen tomorrow. 9 days more to go (hoping to make much more progress soon) :acongablob:

Day one of the Winter Hardware Wonderland :roo-yay: For the next 10 days, i'm attempting to build an interactive sectional map with live weather data ☁️ (check out my proposal <https://github.com/hackclub/winter/blob/main/bellesea.md|here>) This is my first full hardware project so i'm super excited!!! We're not off to a great start as I ran into some trouble connecting to my pi :( However, while we're figuring that out, I already started learning micropython and also read up on how to set up the IR sensors, which will serve as "hands off buttons" to toggle between different modes. The core of the project is displaying weather data through different coloured LEDS. I have some WS2811 LEDS that will serve as the lights for each of the airport locations and show the local weather data w/ different colours so I planned out the specific airports i'll be adding lights to + the order in which it'll be linked. I'm working off a fork of github.com/prueker/METARMap. Below is a much much fancier version of what i'm trying to make...

❄️ Day 1 of #WinterHardwareWonderland ❄️ #hardware-party Before I start telling you about the progress I’ve made so far, I want to start off by presenting you my project: “Autonomous Plant Farm” Well, that’s my fancy name for an improved smart garden. Most smart gardens available on the market aren’t as smart as they present themselves. The water supply is often implemented by permanently setting the roots under water and the lights are controlled by time. I want to have a smarter smart garden and control all those functions via sensors. In summary: • Water supply is controlled by soil moisture sensors • Light is controlled by light sensors and time • Water levels are being checked by ultrasonic distance sensors • Information for the users are being displayed on an LCD panel Here’s the whole proposal on GitHub: github.com/hackclub/winter/blob/main/smwwims.md Now to the work I’ve done today: The basic prerequisite for a project to run smoothly, efficiently and effectively is planning. In order to ensure that all components are fitting properly in terms of mechanics, CAD modelling is enormously helpful. Therefore, I constructed, drew and rendered all my parts in SolidWorks. I had to change some things and found some rooms for improvement, but generally the CAD models confirmed my initial expectations of the project. Here you can see my CAD models: Oh, and I had some spare time, so I went skiing. Guess that’s also a Winter Wonderland.

Day 1/10 of #hardware-party! Starting today, I’m going to spend a little time every day for the next 10 days building a split-flap display inspired by the parts list from @linkai here. It’ll be internet connected, so I can wire it up to show the current balance on :bank-hackclub-dark:. Today I wired up the hall-effect sensors that’ll control the split flaps, and wrote some test code to make sure they’re working the way I want them to. You can see the sensor working by how it flashes from the magnet. Once I have them working correctly I’ll start working on a motor housing in Fusion 360 that will hold the thing in place and connect it to the flaps. Excited to see the progress everyone else makes today! I’m going to spin up a repo tomorrow and show off my work there.

I started building the Backend and Frontend, but before I could do that, I needed a library to interact with the drone. I found one but realized it was written in plain vanilla JS and had no type definitions. Since I wanted to use Typescript in my project, I really felt I could benefit from having type definitions. So I forked the library and converted it to typescript. The fork is open source and is available here.
