Sketching out some ideas for the final project in the first week. Probably making a version of Memex by reimagining the modern web browser experience with low tech.

Wrangling my existing Next.js Static Site Generator with MDX component library to work on CBA's self-hosted GitLab.

Cutting a hard-to-scan warped QR code on vinyl with a Cricut machine and sticking it to my laptop.

Making a regular icosahedron assembly kit with a laser cut cardboard.

Writing and testing a program for an embedded system using a microcontroller to interact (with local input &/or output devices) and communicate (with remote wired or wireless connections).

Scanning a virtual space with a 3D scanner.

Designing a 3D printed icosahedron kit - beam has very fine tiny slits to fit a thin sheet of film and connector has tricky geometry.

Designing a custom PCB for XIAO RP2040 and PixArt PMW3360 sensor.

Making a PCB for an embedded microcontroller system.

Designing and CNC milling a lamp-esque object...

Reading input from a vintage PS/2 numpad with a custom PCB and microcontroller (as if it's necessary to do this)

The package says 'DO NOT TOUCH THE POLARIZER OR REFLECTOR.' Naturally, I peeled it off to see if I could make a transparent screen. Spoiler: it didn't work.

One month to deadline, and it's time to move from napkin sketches to implementation.

Casting a lithophane using a mold??

Helped build software and testing tools for Neilbot, a 20-faced rolling robot.

Building a modular I2C system to bridge a PS/2 numpad submodule to a main MCU.

A web interface served from ESP32S3 to preview the camera feed, adjust transforms, and test a computer vision pipeline in real-time.

Freezing a Google Street View panorama inside a K9 crystal cube using UV laser engraving

HyperCarousel is an add-on for the Kodak Carousel projectors and a novel slide mount design (HyperSlide) to add hypertext non-linear navigation capabilities to the slide projector.
