Electronics
Audio player with timer and nine alarms
1) Continual video recording using VHS, at selectable duration and rewinding duration 2) Recording for selectable times following input signal to the radio receiver module. The unit learns three signals from the video recorder's handset - Record, Stop, Rewind
Records on SD card up to 11 months continuously, every second, providing the power supply is continual. Each recorded entry is the geographical location and height, date and time, speed and signal information. The recordings become part of a databse on the PC which operates the GUI (see PC Software page)
USB powered board providing parallel and serial in/out, counting and analogue inputs, and PWM outputs. Outputs to a GUI (see PC Software page)
Timing of a number of hours selected by the user. It plays a few bars from Tchaikovsky's 1812 Overture
Plays melodies created by the user in the GUI (see PC Software page). While comminicating with the GUI the unit acts as a simulator, to help the user create. The melodies are organised in one array of 224 notes/silences. Each of these has a settable duration. The starts and stops for each melody are positioned within the array, allowing the user to work on small sections rather than a full sequence There are several videos on YouTube for this
USB programmed. User creates four coloured patterns using the GUI (see PC Software page) and uploads to the device. Symmetrical, each side can be independent in the patterns. The patterns each have ten speeds and the brightness has three different levels.
Mick, Michaela and 17 others. USB controlled by the Sweet-Talk Suite (PC Software page). Moving neck and mouth, LED eyes. Default position of the neck and eye colour and voice, are unique for each 'Arno'. The link is to a video which was made before full speed of speaking was achieved.
This was made to move around a weather balloon, it is for a film replication of the balloon in the TV series The Prisoner. In addition, both transmitter and receiver have stereo sound playing, with the buggy sound played at the selection of the person operating the transmitter. There are several modes, not fully completed. Driving is any direction, by four steering/driving wheels. There are four speakers on the buggy, and four lead-acid batteries. The transmitter is 'Prisoner' inspired
Operates a trapdoor, several stereo audio recordings, a moving feather, scratching and warning lamp. I worked for a feral cat group. The trapdoor was operated after beginning playing a sound, following the keypad press for releasing the door
Radio controlled magnification, illumination and fume expulsion. Operated by a guitar pedal so the hands are left free. Built for assisting with soldering
14 patterns using six RGB LEDs. Colours are copyable from one to another. The modes are single pattern, changing (variable rate), or countdown to sleep (variable delay)
USB interface for hobbyists. Digital on-off signals, reading of analogue voltages, serial in/out, pulse counting and PWM generation
10 positions for each slide. The stage moves after set delays and takes photos at the ones selected. Unique RGB illumination for each. Photo printing has black area masking, video facility has subtitling. PC or console control. Not finished
The controls were built into a car ashtray. Laptop runs the system, but is set up and can be forgotten. Video and photos, and sequential photos. Spoken feedback, user-friendly illuminated buttons also. Photo sequential rate from 5 per second up to 1 per minute
Exactly like in the film, except it doesn't explode. Infrared control. 1-2 speaker selection and battery voltage level. Range up to 15 metres at best
Warming and exposing duration presets, adjustable, and also manual control. Total duration display also
