Pi Wars Disaster Zone 2024 Robot Build - 3D Printing and Freecad
A quick update on Big Ole Yellow - the Orionrobots team build for Pi Wars 2024.
In this, how we used FreeCAD and 3D printing to make our Nerf attachment.

RASPB
raspberry-pi-pico-robot-arms-working
A student and I play with the Raspberry Pi Pico W driven MeArm Maker V3 - two of them! The Raspberry Pi Pico W's run micropython code we made to record movement steps and play them back. We were then able to mark out some locations on sheets of paper, and have two robots moving items between marked locations. We thought why not chain them up, so one arm dropped its item and the other arm lift and move that!
Learn to program and build robots using a pico with my most recent book "Robotics at Home with Raspberry Pi Pico" available on amazon at ? https://packt.link/5swS2.

COMPA
comparing-distance-sensors-on-the
In this video I use the SparkFun Microview (an Arduino with an O-LED display) and interface with an HC-SR04 and a VL530L0X - distance sensors.
The video has soldering, coding (in the Arduino IDE), breadboard wiring. I compare their abilities, costs and potential pitfalls.
I also announce my coming book "Learn Robotics - Fundamentals Of Robotics Programming" which I am rather excited about (And still working on).

MAKIN
making-a-simple-3-3v-supply
Making a 100-150mA max 3.3v supply based upon the TS2950CT regulator and a 3.3uF cap.
Source is 4xAA batteries. The LED is driven through a 100 Ohm resistor. An update about the 5v supply with the Arduino + Servo. The supply is underpowered for the esp8266. See the rest of the esp series on making one work for that and with batteries.
Datasheet for TS2950CT: http://www.farnell.com/datasheets/50395.pdf

SOLDE
soldering-heat-gun-cheapy
Earlier this year I bought a heat gun to do some solder/desolder rework. I am considering using it to repair an old laptop (to see what I can learn from that), for mounting different devices or fiddling with SMD stuff in general.
The tool is the "SunGoldPower 858D Hot Air Rework Station".
I unbox it and check out the accessories.

2021
2021-electronic-sound-advent-calendar-5
This is the tenth day with this electronic Sound Advent Calendar. This solderless breadboard kit builds component-by-component into an electronic synthesizer circuit. It suggests there is a new electronics experiment each day. I've added a mod to the circuit as bonus content at the end of the vid.
I open the tenth window in the calendar, which contains... yes another resistor. I build the circuit, test it, and then add the change to the hand-drawn schematic.
Expect bleepy noises! I get it to make more interesting bleepy noises with a bit of a circuit mod too!

In my previous video, I unboxed a Flashforge Finder 3D Printer. In this video, I'm joined in my lab by Helena as we take a look at what we've done with it, any problems we've encountered and think about what to do with the old Ormerod 2 (Reprappro) printer.

NODEM
nodemcu-esp8266-with-neopixel-8x8-panel
In this video, I connect an 8x8 Neopixel Panel to the esp8266 on a NodeMCU dev board. Lots of fun making blinking lights and shapes.
The 8x8 panel is driven from a single IO pin - making it easy to adding to projects. They are also quite widely available.
This is part of my video series having fun with the esp8266.

ESP 8
esp-8266-web-phone-controlled-led
In this video after a few false starts, I get an LED that can be controlled from a web page, and on a phone.
This video shows the code I write and follows on from building the circuit, and flashing the esp8266 in https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=zkbcLkUQoKI .
There is some Lua code and some HTML/JS using jquery.
This is using a battery powered ESP8266 wifi controller running NodeMCU. Jon, my 3 year old son, tests it for me!
