I absolutely adore this piece by Don'tJinxIt!

Her character, Pocky, is absolutely adorable to begin with, and this piece is so colorful and awesome and I wanna kiss her belly so badly! ❤️

Anyway, awesome Pride Month art by "DontJinxIt". Follow her for awesome art!

Fox watercolor from yesterday's stream

#furryart #fox #sketchbook #furry #watercolor

this sketch (right image) was originally made for KDE VDG issue # 46 (Fedora KDE welcome screen) in april of last year, however, because I was too nervous to present it to the developers and communicate with them, eventually someone else created a graphic and the issue was closed before I could say anything.

recently, I decided to finish it anyway, so it isn't left to collect dust in my hard drive

Support active modes of transit. Instead of flying by plane, become a dragon

Biiiiiiiiiiig stretch!

All in all, I have to say, #Grobpfottaster2Light worked way better than feared.
The batteries held up flawlessly, the button response time was very quick, no electronics pack died during the event, the wireless link was stable, the DMX worked also over longer cables and most importantly: people had fun :3

The wireless range was also surprisingly good. It only got spotty at around 2/3 of the tram length away from the receiver (depending on the amount of creatures inbetween).

And for having the idea on Sunday, developing the the code from Tue-Thu and building all of the hardware on Friday, the result was really nice :3

Thanks for reading ^w^
Here, have a bonus video of the almost finished system at 3am on the night before the event as a treat:

#FurryTramFFM

And it had only two bugs, that I had to fix live in prod / the tram :D

1) For some reason, the transmitting ESPs would lock up every 20-50 presses while trying to go to light sleep. So I just disabled it and reflashed all buttons. Now they'd draw around 20mA during idle instead of 0.5, but that's still low enough to last the whole event on a 280mAh LiPo.
2) The red "strobe" button had really bad switch contacts and wouldn't trigger reliably, so I had to remap it to the spare button.

Here's another video of the #Grobpfottaster2Light in action, with the fixes applied:

#FurryTramFFM

The receiver software is a bit more complex.

It has to receive the button events reliably (not get stuck when missing a "button release" e.g.), trigger lighting effects based on the button events, calculate the running effects and send them out via DMX.

The button ID is simply its MAC address and the button ID <> effect ID mapping is a simple index lookup.

The effects engine is pretty hacked together, given the limited time, but still reasonably modular, so I could implement more effects quickly.
One limitation is, that I've optimized it for odd/even based effects. So everything I've tested is based around two RGB outputs, but in theory it should be able to support more.

You can find the code for everything here: https://github.com/RainbowLabsDE/Grobpfottaster2Light
But don't expect too much documentation :D
