Should have taken a picture but I was dumb
Electric circuits were the only thing fun we ever did in science class when I went to school
Electrical stuff is fun
Especially combined with programming
Design a PCB, program it, watch it do stuff
The non newtonian fluid stuff we did, as the teacher called "oobleck" was fun as well
We're doing a similar (sortaish) thing in one of my classes atm
Audio processing stuff
See I wanna do stuff like that while mainly being a physics goober
Throw some matlab at it, makes some beeps and filter some audio files, etc
I just want the knowledge to do incredibly dumb but safe stuff
Pretty fun, probably my second favourite class this sem
First is one where we're working with FPGAs to learn the fundamentals of a computer basically
Nah I seen one show of a chemist turned amphetamine cook
I got no clue how FPGAs work, they're very cool though
No chemistry for me, cus he clearly didnt get paid enough in his line of work
How does the circuitry work on a PCB jackyboy
Depends on what you're making
All I see is 7 big lines going from cpu to chipset
And smaller lines from cpu to everything else
7 might be a over or under estimate
That definitely sounds like a low amount ๐
Your motherboard is multi layered
There will be internal traces you can't see as well
And how does data get transfored from cpu to ram as data
Again depends a little on what you mean and the specifics ๐
Does motherboard have logic gates on it as well
Of course
Data gets turned into electrical signals that then get turned back into the data?
Am I understanding this correctly
I mean, the electrical signals are data
Data is a fairly abstract thing
You can store it in a number of ways though
Like your hard drive is just a lil magnetic needle and a disk going brrrrrrrrr
Solid state storage uses things like flip flops
etc etc
Yes I have a thingy thang of vnand storage saved
A model of its inner workings
I dont understand what the writing means but I know what some parts of that are
You're getting down to the reallllly low level stuff there ๐ not many people have to care about how that works
Yeah I get really bored man
And staying on one thing and learning gets boring
Idk why but I lose interest in things and gain interest in others. Then go back to the thing that got boring, it's a whole process
I just like to work on projects where I can learn new stuff
Or if they're just plain interesting/cool then they'll be fun
Yeah if the thing I'm currently on really catches my attention I can sit there all day watching/reading about it
But eventually I'll burnout and get bored and go on to the next thing
Physics is cool cus its literally the whole universe and how it works
I usually work in a team which keeps things interesting
But engineering is cool cus it uses physics at times, programming and electrical work
I got into skating, physical activities. But now I'm a upcoming nerd.
The guy the family calls to ask to fix the pc
I'm working on the electrical system for a hybrid engine at the moment which has turned into a very fun and interesting project
Lots of new things to learn
And a lot of stuff to make
What is a hybrid engine
A hybrid rocket engine, one of your propellants is a liquid, the other is solid
Oh you're a NASA guy
Liquid oxidiser and solid fuel generally
Not quite, I do like rockets though ๐
I got into rocket fuel stuff. Watched this old guy on youtube make rocket fuel at home with sugar
And other things
Bit of sugar, bit of potassium nitrate, you'll be good to go
I think one thing was stump remover
Yeah that's an easy way to get potassium nitrate
Hybrids are a little different, you'd have a solid fuel and then a liquid oxidiser
And then liquids are what actual launch vehicles use
Liquid oxidiser and liquid fuel
Hybrids are a nice middleground on smaller stuff for a lot of reasons though
hi
I live in an area where you can shoot guns all day and no one will complain. But rockets and stuff and you'll have police out in no time cus Betty and Johnny down the road think you're spying on them with it
Model rockets were fun as a kid but half the time the included fuel wouldnt work
Here's an example of a hybrid, the last one we made
Could've been a fault in the eletrical pulse thing that ignites the fuel was faulty
They were thin wires
cool u make rocket at home?
Did you write the code that tells it how to adjust itself when in flight.
how much does a rocket cost?
Depends on the rocket ๐
Or when to release for the next stage key ou do multi stage vehicles?
how much this one cost?
๐ด
The engine? To run it doesn't cost much which is a big plus, to make, idk, would put it maybe in the 6k or so range, we have sponsors that help supply us with stuff so hard to judge
6000????

mr brast?
And other sponsors
beast
I wanna get into programming software that can be ran on pi devices. But I still havent learned how to upload the code and run it on the device. It's still in my "future dabble with" lost
too rich
Make my own robots like the ones people use to fight with
your university is Nasa?
I mean pi's are literally just computers
So you just plug a keyboard and mouse in along with a monitor (or use ssh) and you're good to go
Use it like you would any other computer
No ๐
how does your university gain money?
Or my own remote control drone with a facial recognition capabilities for advanced scenery selfies
$6000 is pocket change for a university
if i has 6k usd ill use all of em to study
engluih
u live in usa? then mil is extremely good
Are uni fees that bad in the US? ๐
i extremeky want to go to mil in usa
How would I start the code once it's ready and unplugged for use?
The same way you run code on your computer
6k iis too much money
python ... in the command line
But itll just be a robot.
so cool
what do you mean? ๐

Either way I thought a face detecting drone swarm was a good idea so at this point it doesn't matter.

Without the killer head hunting drones
You probably wouldn't use a pi for that, bit overkill
Facial recognition with flight patterns for sceneric views/selfies
Lock onto your face and follow you as you look/turn
Kinda like snapchats failed selfie drone
Yeah that's more of a job for something like an arduino probably, a pi running a full operating system is just added overhead
And more expensive
Yes arduinos are just general purpose microcontrollers
Na, just one for the drone
For the controller, depends a bit
On what the controller actually is
How does one setup their own controller
i prefer soviet mil than usa mil because i heard that the red army very strong
i know but i still like the red army
ye
red army strongbbut poor
they have no nice equiment
https://media.giphy.com/media/2V9vB5eAsU8NSTJkN9/giphy.gif https://media.giphy.com/media/GIgA9EUtNizNGvlwWz/giphy.gif
For this TVC project I did a lil while back I was using a controller as an interface to tell the flight computer onboard what to do (and also manually TVC if I wanted)
The controller just had a radio antenna in it, and then on the flight computer I just threw a lil lora transceiver
So you can pick up the radio signals from the controller
And do whatever from there
i think about living i may prefer living in usa but if i choose a mil then ill prefer the red army
Seems complicated, but the complicity may be reduced the more I learn
There's stuff to learn for sure, but that keeps things interesting
Arduinos are compatible with bread boards?
look so nice ive never have this much resouces
As in can you shove one in a breadboard? Yeah they've got standard 2.54 pin headers (usually)
I mean... well
Depends which one you get
But regardless you'll be able to hook one up to a breadboard one way or another
How much engineering/circuitry stuff do I need to know before trying to wire stuff up and build
Not a heap
Do I need to know assembly or a c language
To start you'll basically just be wiring up existing IC's and modules together (which you can't mess up too badly and don't need to know a heap to do)
Arduino uses a version of C++, but some of them support things like micropython
Its version of cpp seems more simplistic and friendlier to learn
Welllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllll
Sorta, I mean it's not bad
I just don't like C++ ๐
I'm more of a C type of guy
I dont like any c languages
I'm joking, it's nice and all but it's too daunting to learn
i lob python
It took me 3-4 years of inconsistent free online courses and youtube videos to learn what I know with python
python more simple
I need to learn c++ and C# and grow my skills with each
i heard that c# used in unity
Wouldnt mind being adept at both languages while python being my main.
Gonna learn how to use unity and c# just to go work for the team that developed escape from tarkov. Optimise the game for the players then quit
huh i went to the member list n notice that some pplve been coding for 15 hours
playing visual studio code 15 hours

Jack where do you reliably buy arduino's
Any hobby electronics store will do
They're very common
And very easy to find
What names do hobby electronics store usually call themselves
Unless you're in Australia, I wouldn't have a clue ๐
Can always just find something on amazon or whatever as well
Yeah I live in a heavy farming area in my state
All the good stores are in my states capital or second largest city
Where to buy online reliably
The lack of micro centers or general pc hardware stores and nerdy stuff like that are at the closest 120-400 miles away
probably just on amazon or something
Would be the easiest
Rednecks and tech stuff really dont go hand in hand
You give a redneck a circuit board and they'll somehow find a way to use it to light firecrackers remotely
On the subject of fireworks, since my family is so heavy on them when they of July rolls around. I could make a simple system to remotely detonate the more dangerous mortar shells for them
I'll add that to list of things to do in the future when I'm bored
Yeah that sounds like a fun project
I can use the same thing model rockets use to light the fuel. But the wic would have to make direct contact every time
Probably just E-matches or something would do the trick
No nvm, theres some ignition strips the thing uses to, in sure the wic could catch the flame
Theres different types if these "e-matches" that produce different size fireballs isnt there
Probably, you don't need anything big though, just something to light the actual fuel
At the same time, you can buy paper wicks for stuff like this as well
Itll be more a chore to reset everytime but atleast youd be safe
Last time I went a launch tube tipped over and a mortar went off near the vicinity of our faces
It was a 3 inch shell so nothing too bad atleast
Which of the many forms of arduino fits my use case?
Arduino Uno?
This arduino rabbit hole gets deeper, what's the difference in the uno r3 and r4?
Would you recommend precut connection wires or coiled wires you have to cut yourself to your desired length
This or that
Any of them really
Anything I should look out for to not buy that could lower connectivity and stuff like that?
Excluding cheap breadboards, I know that much
You can't go too wrong really, you'll basically just be wiring existing modules and whatnot together and writing up a bit of code
Maybe try find a board that supports micropython, so you can play around in a language you're more familiar with before trying to use Arduino's language
What are the names of the arduinos that support micropython?
I dont understand the different arduino boards
Looks like these ones support micropython
You could also get a raspberry pi pico, which is a microcontroller
And supports micropython
And is pretty powerful actually
That might be a solid option
They're also dirt cheap
Now, they may be named micro and nano, but are they actually small?
depends what we're considering small to be
The nano is about hot wheels size
The uno is the bigger one
And a pi pico is about the same size as the nano
Ok great, my inability to keep a steady hand wont be punished when using one of these
Any performance differences/pros-cons between these three
The RP2040 one would probably be the best for what you're doing, the RP2040 is what the Pi Pico is using as well.
The nano RP2040 will be fairly powerful, good for the machine vision stuff you'll be doing, it also has a couple of builtin sensors that might be handy, and a radio module
And supports micropython so you could write it all in Python as well
Has lots of goodies
Its bluetooth capable. Does that include compatibility with ps4 controller
This is the right arduino nano rp2040, right
Uhhhhh, sortaish, like I mean in theory yes but you'd need to the right stuff running on the arduino in order to actually pick up and use the signals the ps4 is sending out
And something tells me that's proprietary information so you'd probably be outta luck
Figured itd be possible but difficult. Wouldnt bother with it, with enough learning could make my own controller to use reliably with other boards I may buy if I continue my interest in micro robotics
I see, pi == 1000
no
is it still not 50?
50 number is not joke
I already checked
Still says not eligible
since text is less than 50
ohh
yes
Tell me about python
I am noob in this field
what you suggest to learn? @proud dew
you should start with the basics first
sorry i am a bit busy now
i think you should ask that question in the general channel

nice!
im planning to make it like a site i can put in my bio that isnt feds.lol
feds.lol is good but not too good
so im just gonna make my own just for myself tbh
oh yhe definitely!
How is it good? So far I've only seen wannabe-hackers (aka script kiddies) using it, you're the first person not showing those signs that mentions it
lol
I'm not even joking, first time we encountered the links to that, we were hella cautious and Google searches for feds.lol didn't help because the urls returned (other profiles) talked about RATs and other malware ๐ it doesn't help that the root of the site doesn't talk about what it is, only stats about how many profiles there are
lol
ive just seen ppl with it
i used discords.com/bio before
but i didnt use it for long
but the best is just making your own, full customization!
can someone help me with git while pushing?

this is pretty good
@tranquil orchid jacky boy I need your help again with the robot stuff. Idk what organs to buy
organs ๐
Idk I think I might start off with one of those elegoo kits to familiarize myself with the IED and wiring
Plus a guy on youtube to does a lot of arduino stuff likes the elegoo arduino board clones cus their headers are labeled on the PCB
Labels are friendly, I like friendly
Sure, that works
Just remember datasheets are your friends, you'll get used to reading them
I'm a little concerned tho
In the event I want to make my own chasis for future builds I may need a 3D printer. That's another fiasco to deal with
There's solid ones out there that aren't tooooo expensive
Ender 3's are a solid option, I can find them for like 250-300 AUD pretty easily
Well you can buy custom gpu shrouds and back plates, and other custom stuff, including custom PCB boards. Wpuldnt be too far fetched to assume a company out there 3D prints things for people
Yeah you can even get them from the same company manufacturing your PCB
Just depends how often you're printing stuff
And how much
As to whether it's more cost effective to just buy one
https://jlcpcb.com/ But JLC is a solid place to get your PCBs manufactured, they also do 3D printing and machining
China's Largest PCB Prototype Manufacturer, offers 24 hours Quick Turn PCB prototype, PCB assembly and Reliable small-batch PCB production.
If I get a 3D printer all us males know the first thing im printing to test it out
What's the machine learning thing inside the arduino nano for
Better be this ๐
The ship is the common benchmark for testing out a new printer and getting settings dialed in
Yes, that's what it would be. No reason to think of anything else
Not my favorite anime wife or anything
In terms of co2 emissions and waste, how does a 3D printer fare
It's just saying the MCU has features that'd be handy for ML tasks
Depends what you're printing
At home on my printer I'm almost always printing PLA
Which is biodegradable
3D printers arent as pricey as I thought theyd be
It's pretty accessible technology nowadays
Yeah you could probably find something even cheaper second hand on facebook marketplace or whatever your site of choice is
yep ๐
They look a lil complex to use
na they're extremely easy
Make a thingo, slice it with cura, slap it on an sd card, throw it in, let it do it's thing
How prone are these things in high humid areas with moderate heat faring in a stable 82ยฐf environment
.wa s 82 f to c
about 27.8 degrees Celsius
Sounds fine to me, room temp, humidity probably wouldn't have a huge issue
Should be alright
And are they easy to clean, especially with a dog who molds it hair faster than it grows
Idk what sensors to buy so I'm just gonna get one of these kits. Which one is worth it over the other is beyond me.
Do these get wired directly to the arduino board, soldered, connected to an expansion board.
Yeah they're fine
Looks like they both cover more or less the same range of functionality
So just yoink whichever is cheaper probably ๐
Option D, any of the above
Soldering not required, music to my ears
The one I'll get for my starting project. A RC car is lackluster, but this is actually useful.
Would be cool to build something that can look at the hemisphere where I live and point out the constellations available for seeing as well
In real time
That thing just adjusts the solar panels for efficient solar charging
You can find everything you need in the datasheets for whatever IC you're using
Takes some practice to read
But they've got all sorts of good info
What kind of data is on the data sheet
Everything
Circuitry stuff
Pinouts, electrical characteristics, equations, common use case circuit examples, block diagrams, package dimensions, etc etc
Oh I am familiar with that a little
Just for example
I enjoyed watching a guy build his own gpu with a breadboard circuit
He showed a lot of data sheets and explained the process while building
Yeah you just get used to reading them and referring to them while making stuff
Split the screen, datasheets on the left, CAD software on the right ๐
Cad software
Giving the available visual information I'd assume it's software for making Pcbs or circuits
Yeah, that's Altium designer
KiCAD is what I'd recommend to get into it though
It's free
And easy to use
And just nice all around
I'm not very familiar with Altium yet, this is the first project I've used it in, it's a little more professional though
Relatively
It's not like Solidworks or other 3D modelling CAD software
This is just for schematic and PCB design
Excluding 3D printer, I'll save that once I get my desktop
So generally not as intensive
Rn all i got is a laptop that can handle 2 google chrome tabs for 2 hours before shutting itself down
KiCAD is pretty light, you'd probably be alright
I cant wait
I've notice that you do use a fair bit of binary/decimal numbers with arduino. Is that something else I'm gonna need a little/fair amount of knowledge of
Not particularly, but it's not like it's hard anyway
They're just numbers
It just becomes easier to think of them in a binary format
And I guess a lil PCB design advice, block diagrams are always your friend.
Start with a general block diagram of whatever your system will look like at a high level
Then you can sorta break that into major functional groups
And that turns into your hierarchical sheets
Is the mcu the cpu of the system
Yeah essentially
An MCU is essentially just a CPU optimized for low power applications
A CPU is a bit more general
Does everything that connects to the mcu use its clock or
Depends, but generally the MCU is the 'master' of the system, telling everything else when to do things
Depending on what you're doing you won't actually use the MCUs internal clock though, you'll throw an external crystal oscillator on there
You can usually get a higher speed and more reliable clock signal that way
But you don't always need that
Forget being a game developer, this seems way more fun
yep ๐
Why build things a bunch of nerds will whine about when you can build things a bunch of nerds will visually orgasm over
Not sure I'd go that far ๐ but I find it very satisfying to build the hardware and then the software to run on it
As opposed to just pure software projects
If I become a engineer a physicist is just gonna make me his lab dog
I'll be the howard to their sheldon
I mean yeah that's sorta the thing with this stuff, you can go into any field you want really, everyone needs electrical and software engineers
The pay is decent isnt
Very
Anyway if you need project ideas, most of the stuff in my list are electrical + software projects
It's either engineer or throw my life away being a oil rig miner
Neptune flight computer?
The planet Neptune or air travel company
https://github.com/jackbrad1ey/neptune_v2 v2 is on my github
v1 was a project for one of my uni classes
Well, part of the project anyway
Oh it's for enthusiast grade model rockets?
Pretty much, just meant for testing simple thrust vector control systems
My next flight computer is still in progress, that one will be for high powered stuff
I dont think it's legal for me to build rockets in my state
Considering any firework that travels into the air excluding mortars, are banned/illegal
And they removed all model rocket kits from mainstream retail stores that used to have them
Would need to consult a lawyer/google for this issue
If you're in America there would be lots of places that it's legal at least, some American unis are doing wilddddddd stuff and have been doing rocketry things for way longer than my uni
A team of college undergraduate engineers races to launch the first entirely student-built rocket into space.
www.josephderose.com
For more information about the team, visit:
www.uscrpl.com
For consumers its legal, as long as you have a permit
I think I need a permit
I can only use engines that have 79 newtons of thrust or less
80+if I get certified
"Under NFPA Code 1127, โhigh power motorsโโmotors above โGโ power class, and any motor whose average thrust is above 80 Newtons โmay be sold to or possessed by only a โcertified userโ. This certification may be granted by a โnationally recognized organizationโ to people who demonstrate competence and knowledge in handling, storing, and using such motors. Currently only the NAR and TRA offer this certification service in the U.S. Each organization has slightly different standards and procedures for granting this certification, but each recognizes certifications granted by the other. In either case, certified users must be age 18 or older."
I'm almost positive you know what NAR and TRA are
Yeah
You can buy a H or I class motor to get your L1 certification, after which you can buy them freely and then get the next step up if you intend to do an L2 cert
And so on
I have to get permission to use airspace for more powerful rockets
24 hours in advance
How do you have the patience for that
the TRA handles that
That's how
Go to one of their launch sites on a day where they're managing launches

Can YOU build a replica of one of spaceX rockets?
Do you make models of actual rockets that did missions to the ISS?
This app is pretty nifty, has all the modules, tells you pin outs, the sketch code needed to use it
Can I use multiple modules with the same 5 volt header?
Yeah
god no, one day hopefully though ๐
Our team is currently working on propulsive landing, soooooo, we'll see ๐
How many stabilizers do you reckon would be needed
Or one really good one
Uh how do I download KiCAD
Nvm figured it out
stabilizers??? ๐
Yes
What do you mean?
Youd need little things that can stabilize the rocket from tilting and going sideways wouldnt you
Do you mean fins? ๐
Not the fins that are also responsible for that
Flight path correction thingy
Automatically adjust for wind
Fins are all you need
Really ๐ฎ
yeah
I mean there's other options, could go finless and use thrust vector control or similar things, but that's easier said than done
Fins are the easiest option for this scale of rocketry
When you say this scale of rocketry, do you mean enthusiast home made engines and large body with micro controllers etc. Or small store bought ones for fun
both
What exactly does your team do
Just study and practice rocket science to try and optimize rocket flight as much as possible?
Make rockets, cause they're cool, and to compete against other unis and stuff
Yeah the bigger ones are definitely not small ๐
Yeah lots of unis compete
Almost the same size as military missiles
For fighter jets
Just slap on a 100 pound warhead and a heat seeking guidance system and boom
Looks almost like a aim 120
Minus some fins
The app doesnt show info for camera modules
They can become amateur missile craftsmen
Like apple starting out of a garage
competing in attritional warfare using the rockets
harvard vs mit are probably at sensible striking distance
"The battle of Cambridge"
So that's how it ends
What app??
And what cameras?
woa
i think i accidently found new feature on phone
i can watch ouretuber while typing discord
screen split
or split screen
i think my phone was lagged somehow and then this feature appear
didnt know this stuff exist
so cool
i wish j knew this before
however
idk how to turn on agaun :(
oh
i did it again
very nice
you can trigger it in the menu where you switch between applications
long clicking the icon
though I guess this ui might differ
+Not all apps are splittable
There are fun switches in the dev menus for that ๐
ok
Lol I really JUST got the 6800xt and now AMD is announcing the 7800xt. Do you guys think I should return it for the new one? I have till the 19th
with testimonials like this, yknow, i've gotta get the new card
Lol those quotes are literally make_cool_statement("new Radeon GPUs")
Wait for reviews with actual performance numbers and decide based on that IMO.
That's probably what I'll do
I find it strange how they're saying it'll be faster and yet $30 cheaper
well, they won't make a slower GPU. I am surprised 6800xt cards are so expensive though
That's true. Ig time will tell if it's worth upgrading
u r rich u can afford 6800xt card
wasnt the 7800xt been out
No, it's coming on the 6th
what're your pc specs? neofetch?
5600X, 32GB 3200MHz, rx 6800xt, 2TB storage
I can't really boot up till my new PSU arrives. I used to have a 650w but it shuts down under load, so I ordered an 850w
windows ๐
No dedicated GPU? 
soon, 6700xt
I would post, but I can't access my desktop
hold on I got you fenix.
no gpu will do for now
loading images on the discord website is absolutely horrendous though
it takes like 3 seconds to open/close
and the fps drops down to like 5
damn you have 4 high end pc's
this is my life until monday evening ๐ญ
They're VM's
๐
what vm software do you use?
VMWare Workstation Pro
so many buntus

See, it has the three main boards pin outs, example code for each module, small paragraph of information for them, etc
That's a knock sensor module for an example
Oh yeah, I woke up cus my cat was meowing. She was pregnant last time I saw her and assumed itd be a week before she gives birth. But...

What he said
@tranquil orchid this is what I found for that constellation recognition bot idea of mine. People already did it before, but its software. Wonder if theres an api for it or something to upload the images the bot takes, sends it to the website and returns the constellations with a map drawn on the image.
Like there is software that can recognize faces on people automatically, and show their names, are there any software that can do that for stars or constellations?
An automatic night-sky analyzer that can estimate where your photo actually belongs on the night-sky dome. A bit like a stitching...
Some comments on it have said they cant find download or purchase links either, furthur further research is required but this is a nice step
Recent article on very subject. Even with machine learning it says it's hard to do based on lack of datasets to train the ai
I just found out that you can make a very simple operating system using BASIC
YES, BASIC
NO C, NO RUST
BASIC
What did you think they used before C languages and rust?
like, cobol probably
Isnt basic also a high level programming language?
I was thinking more along the lines like 86 assembly and other languages like it
A majority of US computer infrastructure is probably still written and maintained in cobol
Probably military shit
I would not doubt that the DMV runs off cobol
God knows military grade != good quality
Would explain why they're so damn slow
3 people is a 5 hour wait
Last time I went there they were still using terminal interfaces, and this was like a year ago
more likely it's ada
Ada was originally designed by a team led by French computer scientist Jean Ichbiah of Honeywell under contract to the United States Department of Defense (DoD) from 1977 to 1983 to supersede over 450 programming languages used by the DoD at that time
oh wait
the military uses a lot of ada
I read military somehow
banks use a lot of cobol
I guess non-military might be a load of other crap
possibly a significant amount of cobol
because "if it works, don't fix it"
electricity
I said military
anyway, is there any qbasic compiler or something?
all I found was dosbox, but download links look pretty "sketchy"
@eager cliff?
Idk I dont use basic
TI basic sure was a thing
God I hate being a semi functional programmer
what's that?
I somehow know what I'm doing while not knowing what I am doing
nah, that happens to every human
should I buy a raspberry pi or use my old Linux laptop as server
as long as you get better over time
if something goes wrong figure out why
and you'll quickly build up knowledge so that you know what you're doing more and more often
with enough practice you get a good feel for "if this thing I'm using is sane it should behave in this way", and you are more than likely right
or at least not that wrong
ah gotcha
ESP cams are pretty sweet
I mean, not often great quality, but ESP's will generally have builtin wifi and free GPIO to make use of as well
I need one that has decent quality
I'd recommend looking into runcams then
Well actually no, I forgot the constellation recognition bot is a bust. No datasets to train it for recognition of the constellations
Start off with something fairly small probably
I think my first ever project was a
Wait I got a vid somewhere I think
Was such an odd system of mashed together things
I had a webserver hosting a webpage that acted as the controller, which would then send instructions to the pi over the network which would then tell the servos what to do
Speak english
I'm joking, i'm joking. I got a sensor modules kit, some extra capacitors, resistors, wires etc, camera modules. I just need to find some good breadboards that dont have loose clips that'll potentially give bad connections
Oh yeah I got servos too
Looks like fun to play around with
10 servos for $20
That's like 2 bucks a motor
Yeah that's the right image, not the one with the specs for the AMD K6 cpu fron 1997
good lord how many servos do you need to control at once ๐
Are servos omnidirectional
As in can they spin both ways?
Horizontally and vertically
Say what now ๐
Left+right and up+down
Then what's the thingy that makes it move horizontally and vertically
I'm not sure what you're referring to
you might be thinking of two servos connected in a way that lets one control X and the other control Y
Yes
discord dying...
Ah, well it's still not horizontal and vertical movement per say, you're just rotating two planes
Exactly what I did in my video essentially
KiCAD
Imma go out on a limb and
That was my guess
Wouldnt recommend it to me if you didnt use it yourself
Pretty much your best free option for schematic and PCB design
It's really nice
https://ergogen.xyz/ is a nicer option
Web UI for the ergogen tool
spinning disks for control through gyroscopic action?
What is the hall magnetic sensor?
But I didn't really use them to export to kicad
It depends on how custom you're making the board
If you're just slapping an existing microcontroller on there you don't actually have to do any schematic work and just use a tool like ergogen to generate the PCB files for you
Do Pcbs have to be green?
I went a lil more custom, so I used ergogen to generate the dxf files with the key positions
or more generally preservation of angular momentum I guess
And then made the schematic and the PCB files from there
Nope
AMD used to have red pcbs for their GPUs
Just a sensor that detects the strength and direction of a magnetic field
That's pretty sick
Ergogen is a lil more flexible in what you can do though, and isn't hard to use anyways
Why not call it that..

oop that's a lil long ๐
This is why physicists are cool, they name things that make sense. Everyone else name things that make no sense or the complete opposite
because it relies on the Hall effect
Ok I take back what I said
What's the hall effect
Actually dont answer that, I'd rather watch a 2 hour long video on youtube
Yeah I love them
Basically, charged particles 'flowing' through a conductor, introduce a magnetic field and it'll separate the positive and negative charge producing a potential difference (voltage) that you can measure
And figure out the direction and strength of the field from there
keycap sizes are standardised (usually)
But if you're using something a lil funkier, you can just tell ergogen what size to use
Yes watching a bald white guy with a nicely trimmed fully white beard in a plaid overcoat with a giant whiteboard explain it now.
the secret sauce is ||Lorentz force||
Yeah, it's just the lorentz force doing it's thing
Did a guy name lorentz discover that
Well 1 ร 7 = uhhh yeah carry the 2, subtract 8, divide by piยฒ and you get scientists are arrogant and always name things after themselves
I think it's more common for other physicists to name the effect after the discoverer
and you get, including in this case, something named after a guy who made something famous but did not really discover it
Only if the discovery person gets a nobel for it
Stop you're making Tesla wriggle in his grave!
I could probably name a bunch of phenomena named after people who haven't gotten Nobel prizes
Also, if you're ever looking for videos on PCB design
Phil's lab is the man to go to
Who was that one scientist who got his Nobel like 10+ years after his death?
Is he bald, white hair (beard), and wears glasses/plaid overcoats?
I don't think I've actually seen a video where he has a facecam
Oh
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=1g-D8T65SJU They're usually just him going through datasheets, explaining a schematic, designing a schematic, PCB, writing code with a voiceover
oh here ya go:
Stigler's law of eponymy, proposed by University of Chicago statistics professor Stephen Stigler in his 1980 publication Stiglerโs law of eponymy, states that no scientific discovery is named after its original discoverer
He's got a good video on using kicad to design your first pcb, and get it manufactured by JLC
pauling got chemistry in 54, peace in 62, and death in 94 (at 93 years old. so close)
What colours can Pcbs come in
Depends on the manufacturer
nobel death prize 
For standard FR-4 boards, JLC does these colours
Ouh purple
iirc, nobels are non-posthumous - peace was famously skipped when gandhi died, saying, roughly, no suitable living candidates existed
Is the headers colour customizable?
Headers?
Yesnt
What headers? ๐
yeah, there was a case with the medicine prize where the recipient died just days before they were supposed to be told about it
ah
That's called the silkscreen
And no generally you don't get to pick the colour, it's white for everything unless you get a white PCB, then it'll probably be black
But some manufacturers may differ
I think they mean the actual connection there
The thing you stick the wires into
not the text
Oh the literal pin headers lmao
Yess
Then uhhhhh, maybe? Can't say I've seen any that aren't black
Is it due to the material it's made of
I tried to install the arduino ide software but it wont let me
Tried the precompiled application zip file too
No there's no reason it couldn't be made another colour, it's just not something in demand so wouldn't be cost effective to make
Would want it to match the PCB colour but seems it's a job for 3D printer
That's safe isnt it
Better time than ever to learn how to solder
Might be a little tricky to then get the little metal grabber thingos in there if you're printing the shell yourself, but might be fine
Design the thing carefully to accommodate that problem
Clip press system, the chasis can clip together. Load in pins first then clip the two chasis pieces together
Problem solving at its finest
what colour are you planning on making them?
Same colour as PCB board, but like they said. I could just settle with black pcbs
"you can have any color you want, as long as it's black"
(also the reason for #black-formatter)
That's why I went with keyestudios 48 sensor module kit. All black pcb
I think they're all labeled as well for the header connections
Well in this case, labeled pinouts
@tranquil orchid can you send that project list of yours again
I dont think discords search thing is working on mobile devices yet since they removed 4 digit descriminators
I can make a custom tv remote as long as I get the correct IR signals right?
Yes, but figuring out the correct signals might be easier said than done ๐
Unless there's like a standard out there
Probably a standard
Over half the buttons on a standard tv remote never get used
How do arcade machines sense that you put the required coinage in to play the game?
With coins it'd probably be a mechanical problem more than anything, can just design a physical mechanism that only accepts coins of the correct size, shape and weight
Not foolproof, but it's good enough to deter most bad actors
So the most effective bit of engineering is done by a carpenter
I'd assume the mechanism is wood since it's pretty cheap and sturdier for long time use
Nvm theres metal ones
And they're cheap
Metal is probably cheaper
Anyways, brb, got some flowcharts to make ๐
Sounds insanely fun, wish I could join
loop {
tokio::select! {
res = &mut task => res??,
_ = interrupt.recv() => {
info!("Received interrupt signal!");
break;
}
}
}
Rust, where being confused is part of the syntax.
res??
Higgs boson particle
Peter Higgs and the other 5 scientists with him during that
Nvm higgy boy won nobel prize
Not sure about the other 5
Franรงois also got the nobel prize. W for Belgium. Although his name has the Turkish C in it
Might be used in french as well, might be from wallonia part of Belgium
Yep it's used in french
Im so smart sometimes
Hes jewish, I knew he looked oddly stereotypically jewish
I have no respect for a country who's government doesnt support it's people who want to keep their ancient traditions and heritage alive
Thanks for yugioh tho, and bleach.
Oh and Gantz, amazing underrated anime
Can i send here a coding meme??
Sure
what language is that ๐ญ
the place where you live definitely has freedom
ill meet u in japan
Prepare to wait forever
ok then ill wait u in new york
Still, prepare to wait forever
then ill wait for u in switzerland
Now I'm not visiting Switzerland
I'm here for python and other programming learning, not meeting some discord user.
true
is tokio::select like an asynchronouse match?
it basically means something like this:
res.unwrap_or_else(|err| return err).unwrap_or_else(|err| return err)
so like if res is an Err or None, it would return it
otherwise continue
if so what why
everything come to void
bru what
f is an array of pointers to a function taking zero arguments that returns pointers to functions taking zero arguments returning void
that's what you get from following the spiral ๐ฅด
if you ever actually have a type like this, wtf are you even doing?
obfuscation prolly
even in obfuscation they dont do that
i have seen pointer to a function
stored in a register
Some rhymes are crimes
these sound like they were written by an edgy 14 year old
one of the most lyrics
this is one of the lyrics of all time
All the new ones are like that ๐๐
So fried fried fried fried
What is this a song about the state fair?
lmao
Because it is, mentally.
Drugs.
Fried = high
Atleast they understand that getting high actually fries your brain and nickname it to match
Or it's a minecraft player who just found diamonds but fell into lava. Hence the fried fried fried fried fried
5 ticks in lava = death
Zing
@tranquil orchid when designing a PCB do I also have to design the different layers of it ๐
Or is all that stuff handled for me and I only have to design the top part where components will go
Depends
You probably won't be doing anything too wild to start
It'll just be a two layer board
So you just do the traces on the front and back
And component placement on the front (and maybe back)
And then no internal layers
Jesus christ germany and netherlands produce nobel winners constantly
Scandinavian countries too
Boo france
No ground or power layers?
I'm making a mini messenger like facebook with a login page, I've html & js but there's an error can you guys help me, I'm terrible.

Ok
GitHub pls lol
okay sure!!
thankyousomuch
wait I'll put it in my github
here
I'm focusing in the server.js and routes.js so there's no css design
what's the error
lmaooo the name
im very sick
and the code is maker be sicker lol
I don't think this is a good way to write code or something to put on github ๐
and yeah whats the error @glossy hearth
tbf, the beginner distros have a much easier interface than windows imo
my experience with ,, the beginner friendly mint linux os '' is that i spent 2 days setting up everything in TTY and reading all of the linux mint forums
nvidia gpu goes hard
setting up wine?
no, managing to get graphics on linux mint
๐ช <๐ง
WSL ๐
may i redirect you to the nvidia build of popos
@viral parrot gimme pls
for the record, I did have trouble with gpu drivers as well, during my installation
what gpu?
an Nvidia gpu
what distro?
fedora
my setup breaks every time i get a new nvidia gpu
I actually just yesterday got a great deal on a laptop with a 3060, haven't tried to install drivers yet tho
