Printed circuit board for the Southern Cross 1 single-board Z80 computer.

I am a sucker for old engineering booklets even though I can barely change batteries in a flashlight. I found this booklet among some offerings that once belonged to a Ham Radio operator last year in a Conroe, Texas thrift store.

 

Good information like this never goes out of style!

The soldered up M2FC board, Martlet 2's flight computer.

 

The flight computer features three K-type thermocouple inputs, three strain gauge half-bridge inputs, three 1A pyrotechnic outputs, a full IMU (±20g and ±200g 3axis accelerometers, 3axis gyro and magno, barometric pressure), a micro SD card for datalogging and a serial interface to the radio and other peripherals. It's powered by an STM32F405VGT7 32-bit ARM microcontroller.

The PCBs were sponsored by Cambridge Circuit company, thank you!

Still life of some electronics. I'll redo sometime soon and carefully clean the magnifying glass.

This is the human interface for the contraption. The backbone is an Arduino Mini Pro. It's connected to the camera unit via a 315mhz RF link and takes input from the user via five potentiometers and three pushbuttons

I forgot I had this one. While poking around for something else, there it was. You know you have too much stuff when that starts happening. Can't even remember where I bought it. If it was ebay then I paid too much.

Hacker (hobbyist)

 

In home computing, a hacker is someone who modifies software or hardware of their own private computer system. It includes building, rebuilding, modifying, and creating software (software cracking, demoscene), electronic hardware (hardware hacking, overclocking, modding), either to make it better, faster, to give it added features or to make it do something it was not originally intended to do. Hacking in this sense originated around hobbyist circles discussing the MITS Altair at the homebrew computer club.

  

Hacker artists[edit]

 

See also: Fractal art, algorithmic art and interactive art

 

Hacker artists create art by hacking on technology as an artistic medium. This has extended the definition of the term and what it means to be a hacker. Such artists may work with graphics, computer hardware, sculpture, music and other audio, animation, video, software, simulations, mathematics, reactive sensory systems, text, poetry, literature, or any combination thereof.

 

Dartmouth College musician Larry Polansky states: "Technology and art are inextricably related. Many musicians, video artists, graphic artists, and even poets who work with technology—whether designing it or using it—consider themselves to be part of the 'hacker community.' Computer artists, like non-art hackers, often find themselves on society’s fringes, developing strange, innovative uses of existing technology. There is an empathetic relationship between those, for example, who design experimental music software and hackers who write communications freeware." [3]

 

Another description is offered by Jenny Marketou: "Hacker artists operate as culture hackers who manipulate existing techno-semiotic structures towards a different end, to get inside cultural systems on the net and make them do things they were never intended to do." [4]

 

A successful software and hardware hacker artist is Mark Lottor (mkl), who has created the 3-D light art projects entitled the Cubatron, and the Big Round Cubatron. This art is made using custom computer technology, with specially designed circuit boards and programming for microprocessor chips to manipulate the LED lights.

 

Don Hopkins is a software hacker artist well known for his artistic cellular automata. This art, created by a cellular automata computer program, generates objects which randomly bump into each other and in turn create more objects and designs, similar to a lava lamp, except that the parts change color and form through interaction. Says Hopkins, "Cellular automata are simple rules that are applied to a grid of cells, or the pixel values of an image. The same rule is applied to every cell, to determine its next state, based on the previous state of that cell and its neighboring cells. There are many interesting cellular automata rules, and they all look very different, with amazing animated dynamic effects. 'Life' is a widely known cellular automata rule, but many other lesser known rules are much more interesting."

 

Some hacker artists create art by writing computer code, and others, by developing hardware. Some create with existing software tools such as Adobe Photoshop or GIMP.

 

The creative process of hacker artists can be more abstract than artists using non-technological media. For example, mathematicians have produced visually stunning graphic presentations of fractals, which hackers have further enhanced, often producing detailed and intricate graphics and animations from simple mathematical formulas.

Seen Here: The PCB assembled: Hello, World!

 

So, today my PCB for the LED matrix arrived from BatchPCB! For what I paid, the PCB arrived fairly quickly - I ordered it on the 15/02 I believe, and it arrived 11/03 -- 26 days, which is pretty good (they state 19 business days).

 

The quality is very, very impressive - far better than anything I could pull off at home. The silkscreen and soldermask makes it look really nice, too.

 

Soldering it was a joy, although there was a LOT to solder and it's all surface mounted.

I had a few problems at first; it wasn't lighting the matrix at all properly but I soon realised with my new design (transistors on the cathodes) I have to write the transistors HIGH to get a LOW on the cathode, so a quick line of code changed to get that working.

Then for some reason the top half of every letter was flipped. It turns out this was my fault: I messed up when making the package for the LED matrix in Eagle, swapping the matrix's 5th cathode for my system's 8th, 6th for 7th, 7th for 6th and 8th for 5th. This was fairly easy to fix in code, however.

 

Finally USB isn't working to program or communicate, but I can configure the FT232RL chip (after all, it's sending the clock pulse that's driving my ATmega168). I think I have an idea of what's causing this, but I'm not sure yet.

I need to monitor the temperature variation of one of my vivariums over time in preparation for obtaining a Royal Python. i want to make sure it doesn't get too hot or too cold.

 

I've been gradually acquiring and building little modules to plug in to breadboard and as I had the right bits I knocked up this circuit. Every second it displays the temperature on the LCD and sends the temperature to a remote server for recording.

My vote for "technological innovation of the 20th century" - the transistor.

 

You could manufacture a single microchip with way more transistors than these in it nowadays.
