Free food on campus. Right now. The simple HackMIT project revisited! This time with a more robust algorithm and better update rate, the Free Food API provides real-time data about… Read more Feeding Students! | Free Food API →
Haven’t you always wanted to wake up to the sounds of stepper motors that are writing the day’s weather for you on a whiteboard? Well, now you can(!) because the… Read more Robotic Whiteboard | Boarderline →
And today, something a little different! As part of the MIT class 6.08, which is intro to EECS with Interconnected Embedded Systems, my teammates and I created the FISH as our final project. In a nutshell, it is a smart fish that can answer many many of your questions and also wake you up in the morning! Personally, I was in charge of some of the software functionalities (such as the alarms), of integrating the hardware and software, and of syncing the FISH’s mouth to speech. I also designed and… Read more A Talking FISH →
Another engineering-wonder/nonsense-project that was just way too much fun to make. In short, it is an ESP32 with a PIR motion sensor that lives in a hotel room and updates a website with the latest time of a movement detection. This motivation for this project emerged about a week ago when I decided to try and work with Python scripts on MIT’s servers.
Update! [Video below] Event though it looks like one, it’s not a spelling error. There’s a board, and a line, so I thought “Boarderline” could be an absolutely amazing name. Feel free to criticize my thinking. I think I am starting to criticize my thinking too. Anyway, Boarderline is a robotic whiteboard. I want it to be internet connected, have API communication, and server side capabilities. Though so far only the mechanical side is done. Therefore, to celebrate that milestone (which I’m kinda happy with, I mean it took 3… Read more Robotic Whiteboard | Boarderline – A new thing on its way. →
