@Scott1700Day 1 of #10-days-in-public!
I arrived home late due to track, but got to work on learning pcb design! I followed the hackercard from #onboard and it was really helpful it getting me used to the software! I will be experimenting more, but here is my finished schematic for day 1
I think i put in a wrong component so ill fix that lol
@Kieran1r1x70 has arrived for my first major hardware project, "project amber waves"
@Kieran1My blot arrived today! starting work on recording an unboxing and overview as well as an in depth tutorial! :youtube-logo:
@karmanyaahm1My 3d printer arrived!!!!!!!!!! Literally sooooo excited
@jdogcoder0HCB Card Arrived today! Lots of hackathon planning and such today.
@Sean0I ordered a flipper zero, and it arrived today. So I'm now writing an application in C (with basically no documentation) in order to create some Shortcuts for my tv remote.
Once I finish this, I'm gonna make something that allows me to transfer files over IR
@Cheru0thought i might as well post what i did yesterday to get into a habit of scrapping!
did some genuinely fun physics (1), had a meeting with @DaisyReyes-U046V3EK56W working on revamping HCB documentation (2), & had a call with @zoyashussain where we discussed starting/joining an frc team among other things (3). also, my PCBs arrived (4)!
@Sean0A wait lamp arrived for my traffic light. It's completely unwired though. (I'm currently thinking neopixels + a serial link back to the main MC)
@msw0I made some USB hubs! Iβve been working on the design since @hugo.y.hu935 gave an #onboard workshop at Outernet. I made the schematic and PCB layout about a week ago, and the actual fabricated boards arrived yesterdayβ so quick!
Next step is to test them out, but they look like theyβre all connected correctly. After I confirm they work Iβll put a making-of post in #onboard for other people who want to do stuff with USBs
@Sean0I arrived in croatia yesterday for a holiday. Day 1s photos
@sampoder0Weβre seven weeks out from Outernet! Itβs time to make the event a reality. I arrived in Vermont tonight and thought itβd be nice to start a video diary of the eventβs behind-the-scenes, hereβs βEpisode Zeroβ.@toonnongaeoy0I got a package from the HQ. at first, I thought it wasnβt go to the my home but it arrived safely.
@Ruien0My mailman apparently has a questionable definition of the word mailbox
@Lucas0WOW thank you so much! made my day happier:)
@Ruien0Youβve heard of Dino in a box, now get ready for dragon in a bag!
@abbanso100Finally, finally, my part has arrived right now!
@maggie0:winter-hardware-wonderland: day 14: pcbs arrived!!! they look great but I haven't tested them yet...really hope they actually work, but if not, at least they look good :p
@VinciC-U04HJHZ3Y0M0Unfinished + SUPER Late WHW Day 10 βοΈ
Made great progress today!
β’ Printed a new case as the old one was in poor quality
β’ The display has FINALLY arrived
β’ Finished the codes and stuff
Will continue to provide updates on the project until I can power on the display
@sam0#hardware-party Day 10/... Wow time flies, the 10 days are already up.
AliExpress shipping :tw_face_palm:, one final thing still hasn't arrived (eta was the 17th).
I've been too busy with #frc as well as preparing for a music competition recently so I couldn't work on it as much as I'd liked. Still got a ton done though.
Today I worked on some software stuff, soldered some wires and getting electronics ready.
I'm racing to get it complete before the π’ Ship Showcase!
@VinciC-U04HJHZ3Y0M0Day 6-7 of WHW βοΈ
Project is currently on hiatus as one of the components (the LCD display) hasen't arrived yet, but in the meantime, here's what i've done:
β’ Successfully fetched data from Network Rail's data centre π¬
β’ Found my old raspberry pi 4 which has dust all over it :raspberry-pi-logo:
β’ Configured the cloud that feeds the data from my raspberry pi to the display
β’ Started designing the case of the display - should be done tomorrow
@VincentvH-U04HW44NLJ30I spent the two first days of the winter hardware wonderland assembling my 3D printer. All of my parts havenβt arrived yet so Today I did some test printing and adjusted the slicer settings.
@Chris0I guess i will call day one of my #hardware-party, my hardware finally arrived. I have almost everything i need.
But the GPS module is stuck with the delivery people. So now I have to wait a couple of days as it arrive.
I am going start with what i have so far and see how far I van go, as it should be quick once i receive the rest g the hardware
@VincentDoan-U04K2KPC3C50Day 2 of #hardware-party - I bought the wrong thing to get my 3d printer working but hopefully it should be fixed tomorrow. Also somehow 3 of my packages from China arrived 18 days early and got to the WHW on time. I'll have more progress done in the next 8 days.
@AngelaM-U04JQQEC3MF0: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 hereβs 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:
@ZeroQL0final package for #hardware-party arrived :D
( not really theres one more item left even though i explicity told them to ship tyem all together :tw_face_with_rolling_eyes: )
@Sean0The pcb's for controling the relay hardware arrived today
@ZeroQL0#w-of-the-day day 12
*guess who's getting a sprig*:blob_hype:
my shipment has arrived to lovely dubai after a week-long hiatus in Switzerland (probably) and gonna get it on saturday :D
@sam0First Robotics Kickoff! :first: I had a great time at my local kickoff event, excited for the season!
Also, more stuff for the winter hardware project arrived!
