Here's what our NEW deluxe electronics kits look like stacked on a hand truck. Taking them to the kids at Grace Episcopal Day School's winter break tomorrow!
A new generation of cheap lightweight plastic electronic technology that does not require silicon, but which is optically transparent and can be coated onto everyday objects would transform our world.
"Working collaboratively with industry is not only satisfying in that I see aspects of my work translate into real engineered products, but it provides inspiration for new avenues of research too. Roadmapping then allows me to critically assess how I should be developing my research portfolio and engaging with industry to maximise the likelihood of productive collaboration."
—Dr Andrew Flewitt
Imagine electronically updated food labels, computers embedded in our armchairs, even contact lenses linking us directly to the Internet to bring us into the age of plastic electronics. In this video podcast Dr Andrew Flewitt and Dr Robert Phaal both from the Department of Engineering and Scott White serial entrepreneur and CEO of Pragmatic Printing talk about the creative partnership forged between different parts of the Department of Engineering and outside companies that enable the technology and research in this area to be exploited successfully.
I already used the shell to replace the shell of another controller, taking me to 4 green Xbox controllers... this is what I got from the controller the shell came from. For the record, the cord was crimped, like seems to happen.
It was a Halo themed controller to go with the Halo Special Edition Xbox (which I have). I paid $6... I probably overpaid ultimately.
6 potentiometers, unknown value, 4 of them buried in the analog controls.
4 "tac" switches, 2 of them in the analog controls.
2 motors, different sizes.
2 springs.
2 100uF 16V capacitors
1 10uF 25V capacitor
1 6Hz crystal oscillator
Ivana demonstrates the Peggy 2.0. That's 625 LEDs, 3 1/2 weeks of soldering, 15m per day (avg). It's running Conway's Life application.
An electronics kit that I attempted this weekend. It didn't work. See the accompanying blog article.

Here I check out whether PSXpad sends the signals it should through my parallell port. (And it does)
Mixing electronics theory and knowledge of correct usage of electronic components, with their creative application
According to a spec sheet the ID of this should be 8.0mm and then expand a bit when pushed onto the female part. The female plug should have an OD of 8.3mm.
This one has an ID of 8.58mm which makes it useless !
Please note that a new hardware version of this device has been released, therefore these images will most likely not apply to it.
Lamp housing has been removed - photocell housing doesn't want to come off. Use of WD-40 indicated. The red wire appears to be a means of disconnecting the lamp.
a power supply from an old IBM was used to replace the blown original power supply.
next step would be to harmonize the look.
How to use a USBTinyISP with a breadboard. The secret is that the 10-pin header has all the pins you care about along one row.
The Arduino Uno R3 is an open-source electronics prototyping platform based on flexible, easy-to-use hardware and software. I bought this one from Sparkfun. Learn more about it at www.arduino.cc/
The disc tray of my Pioneer CLD-1080 LaserDisc Player. Formats supported in this mode were 12 and 8 inch Laserdiscs, 5 inch CD and CD-V and the tiny cute CD-3s.
I had lots of CD-3s. Until my friend found them and started uses them as necklaces. The jerk.
