The CNC Mill: The CNC mill is almost fully constructed. All that remains is wiring and 2 switches need to be better secured. Wiring is proving to be a problem though. We’ve found this http://wiki.zentoolworks.com/index.php/Spindle_Motor_Variable_Speed_Control_Package to get the spindle working, but … Continue reading →

We found the CNC mill! We’ll be using this to make our case with for the controller. Still need a gyroscope, which we may be getting soon! If we do, we’ll spend next class playing with it and after class … Continue reading →

Alright, so today we got into v314 and scrounged around for a gyroscope. We got nothing. So next week we’re ideally going to have a gyroscope, we’ll plug it into our Arduino and play with it, get a feel for … Continue reading →

Project proposal! So yeah, I’m going to be working with Ahmad and Ibn on an ambidextrous game controller. The idea is that you can flip it around, and it’ll reassign its buttons and invert its analog axes so you can … Continue reading →

So I’m probably going to stick with the same project idea. A device that knows where it is using only it’s knowledge of one reference point, motion, and applying Newton’s laws. I got some accelerometers from Analog.com, but they’re really, … Continue reading →

So I found this: http://arduino.cc/forum/index.php/topic,32936.0.html OP’s saying something like “Hey guys, I’m new to the Arduino community. After struggling for tutorials on programming Arduino in French and sending multiple messages, I’ve set up a site to summarize what and I’ve managed to … Continue reading →

World Maker Faire! Kinda. I stuck to the Raspberry Pi Q&A with Eben Upton, one of the Raspberry Pi creators (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Gg-YXqM2xs4&feature=plcp) Why did I choose Raspberry Pi? I’m very fond of this device. It’s a mobile computer that isn’t a … Continue reading →

Whoops, posted this as Entry 3 at first, this is really homework (entry) 4, do not confuse! Entry 3 (black hole edition) will come soon. Relatively speaking. Alright, while going through the World Maker Faire website, I found that there … Continue reading →

So what did I find? These guys! http://shoppingcart.analog.com/ShoppingCartWeb/Samples.aspx?locale=en# They seem to give free accelerometer samples, perfect for what my project consists of! Except that I’m unable to register because they wont send me the e-mail verification and the e-mail I sent … Continue reading →
