Brooklyn Board: Arduino SPI Sending Packets

Alright so in the last post I talked about setting up Arduino in VS Code and programming some basic SPI protocols for the Brooklyn board but it could be applied to any Arduino. Today I am going to be talking about sending full packet structured data back and forth between a master and slave SPI […]

Brooklyn Board: Arduino ISP Testing

I’ve been holding off on this project for about a month now, not because I don’t want to do it but because I know its a lot of work and as soon as I sit down to work on it I won’t be able to stop for days on end. Today I finally pulled the […]

Robot In Three Days!

With the start of the new year begins the start of a new FRC season! FRC is First Robotics Competition and it is a worldwide competition with the goal of designing a 125-pound robot within six weeks to complete a predefined set of challenges on a basketball court. What challenged you to have to complete […]

Oculus Quest Development with Linux and Unity3D

I was cleaning off my desks today in preparation for Thanksgiving and I found a couple Oculus Quests that Techgarage had bought which kind of sparked my interest in programming them again. There is a real lack of educational VR content especially on the Oculus Quest which is, in my opinion, the best VR headset […]

Football Kicking Robot

Wow. It’s been a while since I’ve posted. This semester I started so many new things, like the Max Planck Honors program, working in the Max Planck machine shop, and conducting my own research project in Dr.Fields lab at FAU. There is so much to say but I will talk about all of that in […]

Weekend in UF

Wow! I did a lot this weekend. My dad is on the alumni board at UF and this weekend he happened to have a meeting. A lot of my senior friends headed up there recently like Carleigh, Billy, Justin, Monica, and Daniella, so I decided to go up with my dad. We got there Thursday […]

RDL 2019 kickoff!

So this weekend was RDL kickoff. RDL or robot drone league is a game that I help design every year with other members of Techgarage and is a challenge based robotics game with two drones and two robots on each team. This year I decided to actually compete and be on a team. I am […]

Slidemap v10.1 Optics

While micromovement of Slidemap is critical it is not even the most important part, that designation remains the optics. Slidemap itself is an imaging platform and thus needs to be able to capture high resolution and high magnification images. While this may sound complicated there really isn’t much besides these few basic things. Objective Lens […]

Slidemap 10.1 Moving!

After experimenting a little bit with this platform moving it back and forth for about an hour I began to add limit switches so I could experiment with homing the device. It worked perfectly with the Marlin firmware and there was virtually nothing I had to do on my side to get it working besides […]

EV Conversion (Part One)

So for the past few months, I have had the idea of doing an EV conversion on my car when I get it and well I got it about a month ago so I think its time. Before I go in there and rip the engine out like a monster, I am first going to […]
