What is a prototype?

“A beta version of the product to test with and to be learned from”.

We have three essential branches in Ficosa's prototype area: Mechanics, Electronic and Software

Here is my 1995 Francie Repro doll repainted to look like a 90s Japanese prototype Francie. Her current owner (Protoguy69 on Instagram) says she’s meant to be a vintage repro of the 60s Japan exclusive Francie but her blonde hair and eye paint style looks much more like a late 80s/early 90s Japanese art style with the multiple eye dots, lower eyelashes and general shape looking more contemporary. My theory is that Mattel was gonna make a Japan exclusive line of dolls using reproduction sculpts but it got canned at the time.

I specifically picked the 95 repro doll cuz she has that specifically rounder jaw that the prototype had. I didn’t wanna reroot a doll to have blonde hair so she kept her default hair though I hated how weirdly choppy and dry kanekalon hair is so I cut it into a bob inspired by the 60s American girl Barbie lol.

I’m really proud of how closely I got the paint though since I still don’t feel confident about my ability to copy paint styles easily.

She’s currently wearing my Princess of Japan’s clothing cuz I think a mass produced Mattel kimono would have suited a potential Francie doll remake.

I wanted to make something with a grey and gold color scheme, as I hadn't really tried doing that before. I gave it a silver arm simply because I don't have 2 golden Lewa masks and also because Jetstream Sam is cool.

According to the seller I got this from - this is a handmade resin prototype of Horton the Elephant from Mattel. It has small feathers on his head and tail. He's marked Henson on one of his feet, so it has to be a fairly recent toy. Not sure if the actual toy was ever produced.

prototype made by datsun with rotary engine

This is my first clean slate workspace. It started as the screen, keyboard, mouse, and desk. Workspace consists of the MacBook Woz Edition on an mStand with some crappy microsoft wireless desktop and a ViewSonic 17" screen.

1960 Austin Freeway prototype sedan information sheet. Owned by a former BMC Australia Experimental Division employee, who states this is the first prototype built for the Freeway. Taken at Shannon's Eastern Creek Classic 2011, held at Eastern Creek Raceway Sydney.

Arduino used to correct the broken rotator pot (it calculates the angle from Ohms law using the remaining track). It also corrects for the mysterious 30 degree error that has crept into the device.

Here is the code:

/*

Find the bearing of the rotator, the POT is a 5k

360 degrees but the track has broken near one end

at about 330 degrees azimuth.

Consequently readings from the working end vary between

0 for North to 4k at 330. The range is more or less linear

with 1.1k = 90, 2.2k = 180, 3.3k = 270 and ideally 4.4k = 360

This gives a translation from kohms to degrees: 4.4 / 360 k/deg

A0 measures voltage 0V = 0, 5V = 1023. To measure the pot (Rpot)

we have Rpot in series with a 5k (Rfixed) which gives us a voltage:

From Ohms law, V = IR

I = Vref / (Rfixed + Rpot)

Vmeasured = I * Rpot

Vmeasured = Vref * Rpot / (Rpot + Rfixed)

rearranging:

Rpot = Vmeasured * Rfixed/(Vref - Vmeasured)

and so:

Az = (360 / 4.4) * Vmeasured * Rfixed / (Vref - Vmeasured)

We might as well stay in integers and call Vref 1023 to make the

calcuation easier on the chip:

Az = (360 / 4.4) * 4.93 * Vm / (1023 - Vm) = 403.4 / (1023 - Vm)

The circuit:

* 5k to 5V and A0

* Rotator pot, wiper and good end bwteeen A0 and ground

* 0.1uF cap across rotator pot downleads (for EMC)

* LCD RS pin to digital pin 12

* LCD Enable pin to digital pin 11

* LCD D4 pin to digital pin 5

* LCD D5 pin to digital pin 4

* LCD D6 pin to digital pin 3

* LCD D7 pin to digital pin 2

* LCD R/W pin to ground

* 10K resistor:

* ends to +5V and ground

* wiper to LCD VO pin (pin 3)

*/

// include the library code:

#include

// initialize the library with the numbers of the interface pins

LiquidCrystal lcd(12, 11, 5, 4, 3, 2);

int WiperPin = A0; // select the input pin for the potentiometer

int Vm = 0; // variable to store the measured voltage

void setup() {

// set up the LCD's number of columns and rows:

lcd.begin(16, 2);

// Print a message to the LCD.

lcd.print("Az : ");

}

void loop() {

long Acc = 0;

for(int i = 0; i < 100; i++)

{

delay(10);

Acc += analogRead(WiperPin);

}

Vm = Acc / 100;

// Find angle

int Az = int(403.4 * float(Vm) / float(1023 - Vm) + 0.5);

lcd.setCursor(5, 0);

// Clear previous

lcd.print(" ");

lcd.setCursor(5, 0);

// print the angle reading - seems to be a 30 degree offset?

lcd.print(Az-30);

}

Here is the result of our first attempt at producing floating product photos. It is a bit of a duct tape special at the moment, but it gave us the opportunity to experiment with different lighting and we now have a plan for version two, which will be much much prettier.

That are all my BrickArms Prototypes.

A prototype heater barrel based on Nopheads awesome work. I haven't tested it out yet, but it seems reliable. I'll try and get to that ASAP. A prototype heater barrel based on Nopheads awesome work. I haven't tested it out yet, but it seems reliable. I'll try and get to that ASAP.

The first prototype of the first entirely Polish car called Syrena (Mermaid) oficially introduced in 1955. Production model differed from the prototype in many details.

The paper prototype allowed students to evaluate the interaction in the 'classroom' without needing to get too deeply involved in learning scripting.

These two homes are local treasures for Vancouver; early prototypes for prefab housing, they are still remarkably original. Around 1906 if I recall? John Atkin would know. It was only feasible to build this style of prefab across the West for a few years, but those that were built are gems. I totally want to write a guidebook on local prefab housing...

Knitting Blythe sized long-johns. First attempt. Will try for a more fitted style next time. I should point out that the smoking tin is where I keep my stitch markers and yarn needles :) I love that tin.

Today we worked some more on the prototype sample for the countertop. We're using 2-part epoxy poured over crushed blue glass that we rescued from the recycling center.

Software engineering 2010

16mm still camera by unknown maker. Hand-built, may have had a covering on it at one time, or had been prepped for cover. The viewfinder is reminiscent of the Argus D, but there is no hint of any connection to any manufacturer, though the workmanship is quite sophisticated, so it could have been a commercial prototype that never made it into production. Hand-engraved focusing distances and f/stops suggest a European source, both in their form and intervals. It has a multi-speed self-capping cylinder shutter. Made entirely of brass, it is a very heavy camera.

I'm not too into the aesthetics of the high stem, but it worked very well on trails without interruptor levers. These Tektro brakes felt as solid as my Paul Motolite BMX brakes!
