I teach #kiCAD using Raffaello's painting as a metaphor, how cool is that? #teaching #electronics #FLOSS #HKUSTGZ #digitalfabrication #physicalcomputing @kicad

Yeah! some pics from yesterday's "Digital Fabrication & Physical Computing" course (@hkustgz_cma @hkustguangzhou ) exhibition, teamed up with @margaretminsky 's E-Textiles class. Amazing student projects and very nice vibe in the OpenLab. So happy with how my first course here went #HKUSTGZ #MakerEd. #exhibition #finalprojects #students #digitalfabrication #physicalcomputing #3dprinting #lasercutting #cncmilling #arduino

Opening up my 2010 projBox, my first experience with Arduino. Apart from the birdshit solder joints, sticky potentiometers and not-even rat's nest wiring:

* one out of the four switches doesn't register;

* one of the LEDs is connected to the wrong port;

* one of the potentiometers somehow affects other analogue channels.

Maybe I'll rewire it. It might benefit from a hard-wired shield. Kind of proud of the period-appropriate Arduino Duemilanove in there, though

#Arduino #PhysicalComputing

a laser-cut plywood project box, opened to show a line of four each of switches, LEDs and potentiometers in the lid, with incredibly messy wiring connecting them to a breadboard, and then onto an Arduino electronics board. It looks like it probably won't work correctly.

Milestone: achieved gender parity in both programming courses I’m teaching next semester #SwiftUI and #PhysicalComputing. A regular repost with ideas on how faculty, especially those who “look like me” can promote tech diversity. open.substack.com/pub/profgall

Here's a look at Week 11 of #CircuitPython #PhysicalComputing class. Students made rubber band launchers with a #RaspberryPi Pico, joystick, 3 servos, and a button. Big fun! youtube.com/shorts/envNY1mYCEQ

eek, found my old projBox — complete with Arduino Duemilanove and my then-terrible soldering. It was my introduction to Physical computing.

Anyone else get their start with Arduino/Processing with the O'Reilly course "Processing and Arduino in Tandem"? The projBox was designed for that course

My first video on #makertube #peertube makertube.net/w/9uRa3Cay4H6ybt

It's documentation of a game I made in 2016 using a neural headset (that was probably just spitting out random numbers). I was interested in having the headset control the environment and let the player use more standard controls for their own agency.

PyCharm is a fantastic editor for #CircuitPython. I use it in my #PhysicalComputing course. The IDE has changed recently so here is an updated install video focused on the @raspberrypi pico dealing with the quirks of editing & running code on a microcontroller youtu.be/5LoXTVGlNVU?si=9_XAXP

I've been having fun with a #microbit with a 'Halo HD' ring of full-colours LEDs. Here it is running a wave simulator I wrote. #resonance #physicalComputing @microbit.org
