How to connect the HC-SR04 Ultrasonic ranging distance sensor to the Raspberry PI and Arduino.
zhlédnutí 835Před 5 lety
In this episode I show you how to connect the HC SR04 Ultrasonic distance sensor to the Raspberry PI and Arduino. It is a simple setup for both boards. In this video we cover: ► Connecting the sensor directly to an Arduino ► Connectingthe sensor to an Arduino with external power source ► Arduino Code ► Code for Raspberry PI (Python) Code on GitHub: github.com/makersdigest/T07-HC-SR04-Ultrasonic...
Bench Build - Rotating Quake Quad
zhlédnutí 489Před 5 lety
One of my all time favorite games is quake 1 from ID software. I wanted to do a series around quake stuff, and 3d printing seems the way to go. I came across the QUAD model and thought: why not mix it up, print it, jam a motor in it for your desk! Here it is! Parts: Micro USB PCB: amzn.to/2OSgNEh Gear Motor: amzn.to/2OTWvu6 Switch: amzn.to/2Vy0PBX NOTE: Verify that switch before you print the m...
Quick Print - Quake Guy
zhlédnutí 429Před 5 lety
One of my all time favorite games, Original Quake. The mapping and modding community is still thriving and they are making amazing new content for this super fast and twitchy FPS that is (in my opinion) way better than the original content/maps. Figured I would print some of the enemies from the game. I think I am going to try and paint them accurately. I used Pakscape to extract the .mdl files...
Art Installation - Review of building the Black Box Cathedral

In this video we review a project that I have been working on for the last few weeks. Basically a big 2' x 4' lightbox with diffusion and 6 layers of laser etched 3/16 acrylic. The art was done by Bryan Valenzuala (Linked below). It was set up by Hiker Creative Agency via Verizon. I did much of the fabrication of the box, setup all the electronics and programmed the animations on an Arduino Meg...

DIY ATX Bench Power Supply
zhlédnutí 2,5KPřed 5 lety
We build a bench top power supply from an ATX computer power supply. These bench top power supplies can provide quite a bit of current at 3.3, 5, and 12 volts. We 3d printed a panel that houses a switch to turn the unit on, a switch to silence the fan, an indicator LED and three sets of terminals for the three voltages mentioned above.

How to connect the MCP23017 GPIO Expander to an Arduino and Raspberry Pi
zhlédnutí 45KPřed 5 lety
In this episode, we take a look at the MCP23017 GPIO Expander IC. With this IC, we can add 16 GPIO pins to the existing GPIO pins on an Arduino, Raspberry Pi, or any micro controller that has an i2c bus. They can be "stacked" for up to 128 additional GPIO pins! Bring on the LED's! In this video we cover: ► Physical connection of the MCP23017 to a Raspberry Pi ► Code examples for the Raspberry P...

3D Printing Star of Life

My son is now an EMT and I thought I would make something for him to celebrate. I found an SVG of the "star of life" and imported into fusion360, made some tweaks and printed it in 4 colors. The model will be available on Thingiverse on 12/27/2018. I just created a thingiverse account for MD, and its making me wait 24 hours before I can publish. Check the link on the 27th if you want the models...

    video evidence on why most models on thingverse suck. how id you put so much effort into documenting your laziness? Uploaded knowing it was a failed design, because "he had to many hours in the design and was ready to print something." Don't worry someone remixed the cap and fixed it after several people wasted their time and filament.

    Hello sir. I have a problem with MCP3008 sampling frequency. I am trying to increase clock speed for better sampling rate but it does not work. Is there any way for this or any suggestion? And also I tried software SPI configuration, it gives an error does not work either. Thanks for your explanation.
