Talks and performances by people doing strange things with electricity
Fri 23 March 2012, 6.30-10pm with interval at the Showroom Cinema, Sheffield.
Dorkbot is a meeting of people interested in electric/electronic art in the broadest sense; robotics, kinetic art, microcontrollers, interactive art, algorithmic music, net.art... The only real conditions are that it is a bit strange and involves electricity in some way. It is really defined by whoever turns up, be it engineers who want to be artists, artists who want to be engineers, or the otherwise confused.
This MEGADORK event features a cabaret of talks and performances from among the UK's dorkiest, to entertain and amaze:
Paul Granjon - A strange performance from the world renowned self-styled robot artist.
Patrick Tresset - Talks about his drawing robot Paul (on show as part of the Alan Turing: Intuition and Ingenuity exhibition).
Daniel Jones and James Bulley - talking about generating live music from patterns of weather.

Sarah and Jenny Angliss - playing robot music from past futures.

Sergi Jorda - talks about the Reactable tangible tabletop music playground (which you'll be able to try out at the Central Library Saturday 24 March)
Dan Stowell - Demonstrates his use of the Risset illusion in techno music.
Silicone Bake - Live coded pop songs about love, death and counterfeit watches, where all lyrics are taken from spam emails.
Megadork is curated by Alex McLean.
Dorkbot started in New York, spread to London, and now dozens of cities around the world, including several active UK chapters; Sheffield, Bristol, Anglia, Newcastle, Cardiff and Alba (Scotland). Find out more at: www.dorkbot.org

A good power supply is an essential subject to the microcontroller's base project; it's like a heart that gives a life to our microcontroller. Sometimes we take it for granted the important of having an adequate power supply to our microcontroller project and this can lead to the unexpected result or behavior from the circuit.

The PIC32 Cap Touch Eval Board was added to Microchip Technology's enhanced mTouch™ Cap Touch Evaluation Kit, to enbable development with the 32-bit PIC32 microcontroller family. The kit comes equipped with capacitive touch-sensing keys and sliders, which allows designers to evaluate this interface in their applications using the Windows® OS-based mTouch Diagnostic Tool. This software tool provides an easy-to-use Graphical User Interface (GUI) for developing cap-touch buttons and sliders, and is included in the free MPLAB® Integrated Development Environment. The additional software libraries, source code and other support materials that come with the board further shorten development cycles and reduce design costs.
When combined with its other included boards, the enhanced mTouch Cap Touch Evaluation Kit allows designers to evaluate all of Microchip’s 8-, 16- and 32-bit microcontrollers, providing a scalable capacitive touch sensing development platform for a wide range of design needs.
The enhanced mTouch Cap Touch Evaluation Kit (part # DM183026-2, $99.95) is available today at www.microchip.com/get/F3RD.

As the electronics hobbyist one of knowledge that we have to be familiar with is how to make our own printed circuit board (PCB). Making our own simple single side PCB actually is not require a sophisticated technique and technology as you might think, instead most of the required materials is already available at your home.

David presents an interfacing Arduino and Adobe Flash. Dorkbot crowd makes up a quick game called "Busy Proctologist" using some craft items, a pressure sensor, and the goatse image.
The crowd concluded after finding a latex glove, a styrofoam ring, some bubblewrap, and some red and brown felt, and a pressure sensor that the game would be called "Busy Proctologist."
Gameplay involves "examining" as many patients in the day as possible (measure by a 1 minute timer in Flash) without causing undue discomfort during the rectal exam (exceeding a moderate pressure range measured by the sensor and arduino.)

This is a view of the electronics inside the model R/C tank I am designing on a gearbox + Tracks & wheels from Tamiya. The radio is Hitec and two receiver servo outputs feed my microcontroller-based Pulse Position Modulation output into Pulse Width Modulated power output to the two motors.

This is all you need to get a microcontroller running. In fact, even the clock crystal and reset button are optional.
Building a simple and easy microcontroller based robot is always a fascinating topic to be discussed, especially for the robotics newbie enthusiast. On this tutorial I will show you how to build your own microcontroller based robot which known as a photovore or you could call it as the light chaser robot using the simplest possible circuit for the microcontroller based robot brain, locomotion motor and the sensor.

Would be interesting if we could make our microcontroller to sing for us not just beeping or blinking; this project is all about using the powerful AVR ATmega168 16-bit PWM feature to produce accurate musical notes such as playing the child’s favorite Twinkle-Twinkle Little Star song or we could say beeping with style.

Microchip Technology Inc., a leading provider of microcontroller, analog and Flash-IP solutions, today announced its first instrumentation amplifier, the MCP6N11. The new instrumentation amp features Microchip’s unique mCal technology, which is an on-chip calibration circuit that enables low initial offset voltage and a means to control offset drift, which results in higher accuracy across time and temperature. The MCP6N11’s low-power CMOS process technology enables low power, while providing a gain bandwidth product of 500 kHz, and it features a hardware shutdown pin for even more power savings. The device’s low, 1.8V operation allows two 1.5V batteries to be drained beyond typical use, and its rail-to-rail input and output operation enables full-range use, even in low-supply conditions.
