Whoops, I realized why I got a zero on one assignment. The answer, I didn't do three. So here is me updating my blog on what we did those classes:
...
resistor is all squiggly. Ground is many lines. Adding two resistors of the ams strength halves twice. The ratio of resistors is constant.
...
This week, our main goal was to prepare for the independent presentations on Friday. We made a powerpoint. The theme of the presentation is "how our ...
We did a mock presentation today. Even if we do not follow the pattern that we practiced in class to the letter, we will still have better poise and ...
We had our presentations today. Davy blew us away. Our team did ok. We didn't capture wonder from the audience but I think we appeared as if we knew ...
We figured out how to make a better model. The trick is to use not 10s but thousands of pictures to maximize the amounts of points in the rendering. ...
We started on our own arduino creations. Mine will be a thermometer that reads on the lcd screen. The first thing I must do is use the example circui...
The project is coming together. It certainly looks a mess, wires heading off in all directions. The lcd is a particular pain to mess with. Each of the...
We set another flight path today. It flew in a perfect grid pattern. It landed without a hitch. The problem is that there were no photos on our phone...
We are running into problems with pix4d android flight controller. The application is, based on the websites information, the best way to optimize th...
Breakthrough. I got my LCD to say hello world! This was a crazy difficult task. The problem was that the example circuitry had a potentiometer used w...
I helped Nick all day today installing his earthquake sensor on raspberry pi for portability. I used my old SD card from computer science. I used a A...
I did it! LCD temperature sensor success! Here is the setup
[photo.JPG]The LCD screen reads the temp. The balck half moon on the left side is the tem...
I spent more time with Nick doing the exact same thing as last class. We still could not solve the QCNlive issue.
We upgraded our version of the slab. Instead of taking 15 photos from above, we took 52. We let the images process overnight and when we came back, w...
The new elab rendering is much much better. Whether it was the grid pattern that we flew or the sheer number of photos we took is unclear. Our DJI in...
I updated weblogs for most of this class. No shame. I also started on a new, cool yet easy arduino project. The name of the project is Automatic pass...
Back to school and we started with VILROS Arduino. It is an easy to use computer (in the most basic sense of the word) that makes fiddling with elect...
We started work on our presentation for next friday. Juan did some more ground station test flights.
We did more circuits today using arduino example codes. Multicolor LEDs which change speed based on the delay variable inside of code. Potentiometers...
