As I was fixing my lunch, I was struck by the way the light came through the window and hit the lettuce. So I pulled out my trusty iPhone and took this one.

 

I used Mobil Manet to make a sketch that I blended with the original using Iris Photo Suite. I also blended several photos that I had taken for my textures file and applied them. (In all of these moves, I used blend modes and reduced opacity.) Finally, I took the image into Photo Forge where I applied the Oil Painting filter (at a reduced opacity).

 

My general intent with all of this was to increase the tactile texture of the lettuce and to warm up the image.

It works!

 

When the voltage coming off the solar cell is high, the battery will charge. When the voltage falls below a threshold, the leftmost transistor will turn off which turns on the second half of the circuit. This amplifies the voltage from the battery (AAA) enough to turn on the LED.

This is my first breadboard project for over ten years. It wasn’t as straightforward as I had hoped it would be.

 

For starters I think the ATmega328P was not programmed with an Arduino Bootloader, or the fuses were set incorrectly. Having said that I have to give the seller (Iteadstudio) the benefit of the doubt because there’s a chance I simply messed something up.

 

I followed these instructions itp.nyu.edu/physcomp/Tutorials/ArduinoBreadboard which I found good but they didn’t cover manually setting the fuses- something I had to do because I was using the AVRISP mkII and AVR Studio 4 to program the bootloader.

 

Getting the bootloader on required lowering my clock speed to 500kHz (after blaming my wiring several times) and then the blinking on reset showed I was running at a much slower clock rate. That lead me to correct the fuses so the ATMega328P would use the external 16Mhz crystal. All worked as it should and it was a good learning experience connecting and using a ATMega328P from scratch.

 

After changing the drivers for the AVRISP I can use it in the Arduino IDE and use “File -> Upload Using Programmer” completely bypassing the need for a bootloader.

Grumble, this is why you should always buy the damn adapter. Just because you *can* breadboard it doesn't mean its worth your time...

Here, several laser beams meet to slow, capture, cool, and confine a ytterbium atomic vapor. In 100ms, we expect to be able to cool about 10-100 thousand atoms to 10µK and to load them into an optical lattice trap. Ultrastable "clock" laser light also enters through these windows.

 

Update: first results for this optical lattice clock.

A giant breadboard for the giant 555 kit. From our blog post at Evil Mad Scientist.

Circuit is simply a 7805 +5V voltage regulator and MAX232 RS-232 transceiver, appropriate capacitors to make it work and a 'power on' LED. Because everything needs an LED.

The LCD is connected to Arduino, through a voltage level conversion home-made board, that lays under the LCD, and that's why it not shows on the picture.

The blue breadboard holds a discrete transistor Voltage-Controlled Oscillator (VCO). Based on a design from Wireless World, February 1973, p87:

R2R ladder connected to an arduino, for a simple 6 bit DAC. This is capable of producing pretty sweet audio waveforms, using digital direct synthesis on the microcontroller. The best tutorials on doing this can be found here and here.

The MSP430G2231 connected to an LCD from a Nokia 1202 mobile phone. The resolution is 96x68, which is a little better than the usual 84x48 of a 3110 LCD. The LCD is powered by 3.3V, and has 3.3V interfaces, which matches up well with the MSP430 microcontroller. There's a white LED backlight, fed via a 100Ω resistorThe chip-on-glass LCD controller is an ST Microelectronics STE2007.

(YouTube video of the pummer in action)

 

Breadboarded up the circuit for Solarbotics' pummer kit (see the notes for details). I'm building it without the PCB so I wanted to do a little proof of concept and planning for my free-forming. Surprisingly, it worked the first time I plugged in the batteries!

 

A pummer is like a nocturnal electronic plant. It absorbs light during the day through a solar cell and then at night, when darkness falls, it flashes an LED. It flashes the LED with a gradual decay, kind of like a charging Powerbook.

 

I haven't attached the solar cell yet. . .I still want to play around a little with some alternate values for the big capacitor since that's supposed to control the rate of the pumm.

The adapter is connected to my computer via ladyada's USBtinyISP. In the background you might be able to make out the terminal window, where avrdude is indicating a succesful write.

Well here’s Adafruit’s break out kit for the Raspberry Pi’s GPIO (General Purpose Input Output) pins. This of course means I need to learn enough Linux to control them and do something with them. Connecting the new GPS module from my other photos (GoodLuckBuy “Skylab GPS Module MT3329 SKM53 with Embedded GPS Antenna Arduino Compatible” SKU: 86236) might be something to try but using the serial port on the Pi looks hard.

Holding my superflux/piranha test circuit. I love this shot - cropped, NR and slight boost in saturation, but otherwise untouched.

This is an laser cut enclosure for mobile arduino prototyping. I will start selling this soon. A bit more testing is needed.
