I stuck a fluxgate magnetometer to my finger, connected it to a wristband that feels sounds, and added a rainbow LED matrix, so I can feel electric current flowing through circuit boards and walls.
Why? Because I slammed too many cocktails and entered Hackster.io's contest to Expand the Human Experience. They sent me a Neosensory Buzz haptic wristband, and now I need to augment myself or get cut off from free hardware forever. Just a normal day in Voidstar Lab.

That explanatory exposition was a good refresher of stuff I had mostly forgetted. It was just the right amount.
exactly...
@Jimmy Plumber Sorry, my weird sense of humor bled through there.
Yupp, just the right amount, keep it up! Also, I forgetted all of the Maxwell too.
@@JimboCBer i also forgottened
agree -- good balance. Help putting the straw back in is never a bad thing, especially for us older scarecrows.
"30% of you run away as soon as i put a line of code on screen"
That could be phrased as "70% of you appreciate and enjoy me going through the code on video"
Appreciate or tolerate?
i think he, and the viewers forget that there arent only computer/mechanical engineers watching. i studied computer science and LOVE when theres code on screen lol. However, I _much_ prefer it when someone talks through it. I don't like reading code as much lol. Which is funny since im now a software engineer and all I do is read code :(
Really though, 70% would be the upper bound because at least some people don't give a fuck one way or another.
no it just means 70% of us are okay with it
but tbf it could easily be over 30% of us that do enjoy it sooooooo

I appreciate that you talked about how the flux gate magnetometer works! Never heard of one.
I know, right? It's such a useful sensor, and not even that technologically advanced. It took hours and hours of research and a lucky break to discover the sensor and the fact that it can detect DC current.
I love how you explain the more technical side of the project!
I cant like for obvious reasons.
Please continue diving into the theory behind your projects. You did great!
A bunch of folks have suggested an implanted finger magnet! This lets you feel the *presence* of DC current, but it's difficult to tell its intensity and position. Also, OUCH!
I was confused when you said that you were going to do a giveaway in patreon, now it makes more sense.
Considering this project, the data glove, the HUD, and the cyberdeck, maybe try putting your projects together into cosplay of what the peak cyberpunk version of yourself might look like?
That's too bad, might want to consider pinning this comment so people see it. And if you put a magnet in your finger, it would mess with the readings on your Thunder Finger.
Patreon such a shit show now we need an alternative now
Cody from Cody's Lab had a magnet in his hand for a while and it actually worked decently for picking up current.

You can, and it is called a room mate.

“If musicians couldn’t hear, their jobs would be basically impossible”
*Beethoven has entered the chat*
Yes, one musician who lost his hearing late in his life when he was already a master of his craft.
And there are blind artists but I digress it is basically impossible since it's a huge wall of learning the core of the craft to get over
Came looking for this comment
@@asadzaidi6188 there are a lot of deaf composers through history and even still today, you'd be surprised how much they can do through vibration alone
Imagine searching the comments looking for people talking about all the innuendos.
Well I mean he named it the Thunder Finger and it vibrates... its kinda a gimme at that point. 😂
Slather on the theory! Even though I already know it, I love how you present it.
This is fantastic. And yes, you are expected to build a project and submit to a contest if you are awarded the hardware for that contest. We try to cater the opportunity to those with real intent.
Love the theory portion. I support adding a lot of technical know-how, comedic release and puns ... lots of puns.
Awesome to see you here! I may have played down my competitiveness a little...
i implanted a magnet in my finger with the promise i could feel electric current and while i cant, its still pretty cool to feel magnetic fields wherever i go.
Damn I was just about to watch your latest video
@@temidirehamzaht8169 it gets sketchy quick haha
im about to get my own magnet actually, from what I heard you can sense current, it just needs to be a pretty significant amount
Me listening to explanation: same face as that squirrel on Zacks t-shirt
That’s a beaver damn it!!! And he has a name. Buc ee.
This is probably the best video you've made to date.
The education to "education" ratio is perfect
Chiming in to say that I appreciate the technical explanations. You're an entertaining educator. Good video, thanks!
Visual effects of magnetism and readings was so insightful
"tell the thing to vibrate when the thing senses the thing" boi, do I feel educated now.
Coding in a nutshell
make the thing do the thing when the thing tells the thing to do the thing so the thing *can* do the thing, *can* do the thing, not *will* do the thing. If that thing does the thing when the other thing tells it it can, then do the thing with YET ANOTHER thing so the string "done" equals "yep".
if (thing !see Thing)
{
}
else if (thing sees Thing)
{
do thing;
}
@@elimcgamerguy The pain of being unambiguous.
I love getting some background information. I had physics at university and its always nice to know on what principles a sensor functions. I think this was a good mixture!
How smoothly did he just flip off that wrist band CTO with the wooden hand in the back?! Hilarious! Somebody go get a bucket of ice for this epic burn 😂
Sniffing data lines and just seeing the data pop up on your wrist sounds like an 80s hacker dream
The sciency part helps explain why that specific sensor was needed. I would have thought that the magnetic compass was enough.
Love the explanations! Keep them coming!
I'm a robotics engineer and I feel a lot of DIY videos on youtube don't take enough time to explain the theory, which is actually the part that helps the most when your debuggin a project... Very refreshing and well explained !
Your channel has helped me grow confidence with my knowledge. I got into engineering, coding, electronics about a year ago and at times it all feels overwhelming and like I'm so far behind everyone else. I like how you balance the video with knowledge and pointers. I've learned a lot and look forward to seeing more from you!
I feel like I remember him being more than 90k, he deserves so much more
Yea tho
Say what now what now... ?

Dude just found your Chanel and I can only say that you are doing an super awesome job 🙌🏽🙌🏽🙌🏽 please explain everything in detail this is the only way how we (your viewers) can understand it correctly and come up with new ideas on how to use these super interesting physics 🙏🏼 thanks for sharing your knowledge will work myself through your channel ✌🏼
Hey Mr. Freedman, I just wanted to say I throughly enjoy your videos. You inspire me to work on my own projects and I learn a lot from you. Thanks
Including the Theory is great! Please keep it up :)
Theory was greatly explained, feel I got a good understanding of how it works !!
i enjoyed the physical explanation of how a flux gate magnetometer works. when u said "flux gate magnetometer" i rolled my eyes, then i saw it had only 3 pins on it and you explained it
def love the gritty technical details, especially the circuit board names, why you chose what, things like that. also the code part is stellar because that's probably the hardest of it all; programming and then putting it on a chip
Really have been enjoying the channel a lot! I personally liked the educational part. Maybe timecode the video for code/education haters?
Also sad to tell you but people with magnet implants claim to have developed a sense for magnetic fields. From what I remember they place them near nerves which supposedly enables them to gain that sense over time. I think they can only feel strong fields though.
I prefer to feel current the old fashioned way through touching live wires.
That's shocking
*ElectroBoom flashbacks*
Been there, done that, his way looks much more fun XD
Cool project as always. Great to see you set up that patreon, i already joined!
The theory explanation in this was just fine, i'm pretty sure noone will mind a quick summary like that.
Keep it up!
Your description of the magnetometer mechanism of action was really great and I enjoyed it a lot . It was just enough, not too much or too little.
You should make one of these for ElectroBOOM. I bet he'll be shocked at your kindness.
Oh wow I’m early love you’re vida man
I really appreciate your use of TPU in functional prints. Fascinating material.
4:30 i liked the brief explanation of the products and how they work. I'm sure there are more laymen out there like me that enjoy your content.
4:30 - First time hearing about a flux gate and I think you made that segment into the perfect bite size nugget of digestible information. Love the channel and I think segments like that, that help me understand how these little puzzle pieces work are a great addition. Especially for people like me that are just starting to get into the hobby.
I love the explanation stuff, as long as you keep it chill and informal like you did here!
I for one enjoyed the explanation, even at a basic level just mentioning the names of mechanisms enables me to do further research on those topics if I choose. Keep up the awesome work!
I've been watching for about 3 weeks now and I actually really enjoyed the theory. I didnt understand it fully but it was enough to understand what's going on. Keep it up!
You explain everything wonderfully. Keep up the good work!
The way you presented the theory, describing it from the perspective of using various sensors, was very helpful.
The explanatory bit was neat. Timestamps are also neat.
I loved the in-depth explanation, 10/10 thanks man
5 stars for the education part. Really enjoyed it. Also the sensor you used is perfect for a project that I’ve been thinking about for my K40 laser. Thanks!
your content is way underrated! absolutely love your videos and the edjucation kinda style. im a mechanical engineer but i know supprisingly little about electronics and this is a really fun way to learn^^
The explanations here were extremely useful and interesting! Do that more often!
Wonderful content. Loved the in depth detail of the project.
Keep explaining! Really nice explanation about how that sensor works.
your explanations are great! especially about how the chips work.
By all means explain away! Your explanation saved me from going back to my college notes, I'm working on a project to sense when a motion sensor let pass current through a wire and this is exactly the device I needed. I got 3 of them!
Man, you're actually becoming one of my favorite content creators. Love your work!
Thanks for the explanation on the theory. I knew a lot of it, but hearing it presented another way helps with comprehension.
Since I'm not a cyborg yet, I have to admit something...
You are the only one that I really have to concentrate and not put in 2x reading speed!
Not only because you speak fast, but because you pack each sentence with a lot of good/useful information. And also because I'm a French speaker.
I feel this video is a great balance between the "show" and "educational".
Alex from Montréal
Thumbs up as always.
Was a great explanation of the science. As someone who wants to make more advance projects I love seeing the thought process
Fantastic balance of science and project. More of this content is definitely welcome
Your explanation freaking rocked! I loved it! Thanks!
Great balance of education and project...ness. A lot of DIY/hacker/maker youtubers abandon the technical stuff as their audience grows; I hope you keep it!
Loved the sensor explanation!
This was a very entertaining watch my man thank you, I dont have a mind for the workings of electronics but I was able to follow this rather well. I appreciate the effort and humour, have a great day
The physics explanations were great ! Dont jump too fast into the project :) Awesome video !
Education.. is key to understand what you are showing others to build..Keep it up ... Keep it simple... Happy new year...
Loved the dive into some of the theory of electromagnetism! Really good stuff!
i definitely felt like this video was a good balance all around. keep it up!
I like learning and these kind of quick break down of the fundamentals that bring everything together are nice
From this moment forward you shall be known as professor Freedman. Awesome channel, amazing videos (content and presentation) and a perfect source to feed my addiction for knowledge. Please feel free to elaborate any and all details that you wish because your presentation and style, I feel, adds clarity and understanding to subjects that can otherwise be overwhelming and discouraging to many.
It was pretty cool to hear the details explanation!
Loved the extra detail of theory. Much appreciated keep it up !!
Great video! Really enjoyed the little sprinkling of technical points, helps with understanding.. Also may I suggest adding a little code walkthru at the end of the video? I enjoy those bits too :)
Keep making videos like this. I like the sciency lesson along with the build.
I'm a mechanical engineer, I know nothing about coding except few lessons on uni and a bit of MatLab, but that's what I love about YT and their creators:
makes me watch this with interest, keep it up, man
I wasn't aware that you could measure current like that. Really enjoyed your explanation of the fluxgate magnetic-field sensor!
I like knowing the "why" behind the "what" It gives information that is more useful for understanding the world in general as opposed to a specific project( as exciting an interesting as those projects are).
Explanation for the magnetometer was great, interesting stuff.
Good Balance between the explanations and procedure well done…
10/10
Awesome job on touching on the Electromagnetism theory Zack! Certainly makes your channel stand out from others that just go straight to "project talk". Plus I would argue that at least blowing through the theory opens up doors for people who might want to try more complicated experiments or projects. Keep up the great work!
This was a REALLY VERY GOOD explanation. The graphics were sweet AF.
I enjoy the knowledge dumps you give! After discovering your channel I have been inspired to dabble in my own making of electronics. And even a dabble in coding
I liked the explanation! You made it fun,even though I’ve heard the same information before. Good job keep doing it!
and once again, amazing and fresh content, great job Zack!
Love the theory explanation! Was awesome please keep doing em
Everything you said completely went over my head, but I loved every second of it
Your explanation was really good. I liked it
I like the "learning" part. It's quite nice for people who don't know how stuff works.
Dude, your videos are crazy awesome!
Whatever knowledge you miss passing on, you more than make up for in enthusiasm, which gives people the impetus to do more research on their own. Keep it up :)
KEEP EXPLAINING!!!! THIS IS AWESOME CONTENT!!! I got everyone in my family watching your stuff
Thanks for voicing the extended application. Sniffing PWM, epic.
I think that the information you relayed was very interesting. I love learning about these types of things
Good balance of technical material .
Bro the theory at the beginning was fantastic and I’d love to see more, I’m almost more interested in it than in the actual project
You did a great job with balancing base education, entertainment, and project demo! I appreciated the explanations of how the components work a lot (Learned some new stuff as well as re-learned a couple things I can't believe I forgot 😂)
