Simple Variable Buck Converter Yesterday I built a variable buck converter for fun. It allows you to vary an output voltage from about 12V to 3V or less using PWM.
Physics boat After the AP Physics Mechanics and Electricity and Magnetism exams, my physics class had a wooden boat building competition.
Stuff I Learned about USB USB communication is a standard in our daily lives with practically every computer and even microcontroller supporting some form of it. On my robotics team, I was asked to build a printed circuit
Talking to an Arduino over Serial with Python How to use the python serial library to talk to an arduino from your computer!
Converting particle devices to circuit python How to convert particle Xenon, Argon, and (theoretically) Boron devices to circuit python.
OpenOCD for burning bootloaders A short explanation on how to use openocd to program the bootloader of an atmega samd21.
Quadruped Silicon Foot Mold During winter break, I did some experimenting with using silicon as a material for making feet for my quadrupedal robot. As one might expect, making good contact with the ground is important while
Quadruped Quadruped Control Board V2.0 Ever since I started working on my quadruped, I knew that I wanted to make a ‘motherboard’ pcb for it. Version 1, a two layer board, came equiped with some great features:
Programming Life 2.0 (Simulation) Since learning how to program, I’ve always thought that it would be fun to make a nature simulation.
Programming Autoformer At school, whenever entering the library in periods other than lunch, before school, or after school, it is necessary to fill out a google form for attendence. As someone who visits the library
Quadruped Stable Body Positioning It’s time to jazz things up a little. Time to implement whole-body rotation and translation!
Modalai ModalAI Internship This summer I spent a ton of time at ModalAI, a company I interned for. It was awesome.
Quadruped Fixing Interpolation My previous method for interpolating the foot position seemed great... but was it?
Quadruped Adding interpolation! Vertical translation calculations are working well, but I'm still not satisfied.
Quadruped Quadruped Robot Update 1! Since last summer, I've been wanting to start on a fairly ambitious project: building a quadruped robot that can walk and do cool static movements. I didn't have much time to start back
Arduino Arduino Training Presentation Over Thanksgiving break, I decided to put together a presentation displaying the basics of arduino programming for people in my Arduino Club who are new to this. The club was approved a mere
Space Invaders I stumbled across this sitting in my documents folder a couple days ago and I minus well post it. About 2 years ago I made a space invaders game using an Arduino Uno
Cnc Developing my mini CNC machine The Coronavirus quarantine period was a terrible time for many people, but I tried to use it to my advantage by completing something I hadn't had the time for: a mini CNC/milling machine.
My First Post! This is my first post on this new blog! I’ve never done any web development before, so this is going to be a cool chance to learn some new stuff! I’m hoping to
