New member, quick hello

83HD
83HD over 3 years ago

Been lurking in the past due to varied (basic) project interests but didn't realise there was so much happening here when I take a look around not hyper fixated on a single task.

With help from a friend(Hads) and his programming skills I have used a raspberry pi for a 12 month building construction time lapse which I housed in a 500 W halogen workshop light case, powered and network connected full time mounted to an adjacent building. Hads' programming pulled sun rise and set times from the net and took photos 30 min before and after as buffer. We adjusted the interval of photos as required based on the action happening on the construction site.

Other projects have been around emulation and arcade builds - two more in the to do pile at the mo

Future project is air ride controller for my 1953 Ford F100 - that will have a lot of input from Hads again. The air ride components are all there, only things missing are some height sensors, pressure transducers and the controller.

With some spare aliexpress arcade buttons I would also like to make a basic sound machine for my 3 year old daughter to play with.

Cheers!

Ash

    It would be good to see that Timelapse video, and do describe the air controller design and build project when you get to it. Welcome.

    Please share projects! I especially encourage sharing in-progress stuff. The e14 community is great for suggesting ideas (or answering questions.)

    Here you go. Actually got called to another major build today to see if I can do another 12 month time-lapse. Will be interesting but better get Hads back on the case haha
