many project suggestions involving brainwaves get passed over because it’s hard to make much out of that type of control. This project doesn’t necessarily make progress on the control side on this, but you have to admit that herding life forms with your thoughts is worthy of a closer look. [Geva] set up a rig […]
AUTOMATED HOSE keeps CATS FROM WATERING YOUAUTOMATED HOSE keeps CATS FROM WATERING YOU
Commenter [TheCreator] reminded us of this wonderful video from [Craig Turner] who you may recognize from SBS’s top gear Australia video Competition. You see, [Craig] has been struggling for some time with the problem of neighborhood cats easing themselves pretty much all over his stuff. through surveillance he identified (and named) around 9 separate cats […]
ADDING STEREO TO MONOPHONIC AUDIOADDING STEREO TO MONOPHONIC AUDIO
A great deal of incredible stuff occurred up in [Bruce Land]’s lab at Cornell this last semester. three trainees – [Pat], [Ed], as well as [Hanna] put in hours of work to find up with a few algorithms that are able to simulate stereo audio with monophonic sound. It’s sufficient work for three semesters of […]
EYE tracking through ELECTRICAL IMPULSEEYE tracking through ELECTRICAL IMPULSE
typically when tracking eye motion we utilize different techniques that need sensors being directed at the eye itself. This method is rather different in that it is sensing the “electrical prospective of the cornea”. We have no concept exactly how this works, however it looks quite cool. [via HackedGadgets]
FLAMENCO GUITARFLAMENCO GUITAR
[John] says, “I noticed an regrettable lack of many flamethrower guitars on the web so I filled the need. ” That’s just incredible by us. This series of guitar-mounted flamethrowers started with a little build, able to shoot a six-foot flame for about 40 seconds. Yes, extremely theatrical, however not something you’d want to modification […]
CUSTOM WORKSTATION MAKES PLASMA cutting A breezeCUSTOM WORKSTATION MAKES PLASMA cutting A breeze
A plasma cutter is probably top of every metalworker’s short list of dream tools. From freehand curves to long straight cuts, nothing beats a plasma cutter for getting the creative juices flowing. Unfortunately, there’s also the jet of superheated metal blasting through the workpiece to deal with, which is the reason behind this shop-built plasma […]
TURNING A PHONE into A MEDIA center REMOTETURNING A PHONE into A MEDIA center REMOTE
[Kees] desired a remote for an XBMC audio system. He had a traditional T65 Dutch telephone in one of his job boxes as well as believed this phone with the addition of a Raspberry Pi he might have a practical media remote with traditional lines as well as 70s styling. Each of the digits on […]
FPGA PLAYS MARIO like A CHAMPFPGA PLAYS MARIO like A CHAMP
This isn’t an FPGA emulating Mario Bros., it’s an FPGA playing the game by analyzing the video as well as sending controller commands. It’s a final project for an engineering course. The ECE5760 advanced FPGA course over at Cornell university that always offers home entertainment for us each time the final projects are due. Developed […]
SNAP-TOGETHER PCB MILLSNAP-TOGETHER PCB MILL
[Jonathan Ward] came up with the MTM Snap, a snap-together pcb mill as part of the Machines That Make group at MIT. We covered [Jonathan]‘s previous work constructed out of half-inch plywood, however the new iteration of his PCB includes a clever snap-together system instead of screws as well as bolts. Although the MTM snap […]
VFD TUBE CLOCK developed utilizing PROTOBOARD as well as FREE-FORMED PSUVFD TUBE CLOCK developed utilizing PROTOBOARD as well as FREE-FORMED PSU
[James Glanville] composed in to show of his newest tube project. It’s a clock utilizing six IV-3 VFD tubes. In addition to the tube screens the job prominently features a blue 3D printed situation which hides away all the digestive tracts of the develop including the Stellaris Launchpad which drives the clock. Speaking of guts, […]
