PCOMP Final final project

After numerous revisions it’s finally finished. More or less. Working with small parts is very difficult especially with 30 gauge wire which is barely a thread and breaks easily which is one of the main problems I encountered with this project. The code is working great. But I may have crossed some wires that make [ READ MORE ]

PCOMP Finals update

Dropped Processing. Dropped Temp sensor. Long live the Ultrasonic sensor. I gave in and picked up the ultrasonic sensor. A quick jab at the library and pasted the same values I had for the temp and got it working. I initially used a central ground to reduce the cabling and copper tape to for the [ READ MORE ]

Pampanga Lantern Weekend update

I decided not to fly out for Thanksgiving and instead work on my Physical Computing final project. I initially started out Thanksgiving by going through the Muppet Show episodes and getting the Open CV code to work. My classmate Adria Navarro-Lopez suggested to use the OpenCV library instead of the Open Kinect to make things [ READ MORE ]

Pampanga lantern – Physical Computing Final

  Sooo my last idea didn’t exactly fly but that’s the way it is here. My classmates instead gave me better ideas to make this more interesting. One that resonated was suggested by Lisa Park that I should look at the work of installation artist Olafur Eliasson and his installation work in London called the [ READ MORE ]

Under pressure

Named after that song from Queen, now I have to program the arduino to recognize an analog input. Meaning, it’s not just as simply flipping a switch. This requires and entirely different mindset. Using a knobthingy commonly known as a “potentiometer”, it allows the light to switch on once you turn it past a certain [ READ MORE ]

Christmas lights

There’s satisfaction to be had in watching lights blink especially when those lights turn on by your command. The code is relatively simple enough now that I’ve had the weekend to digest the meaning of all these pins and ports. //double lights green light and red light void setup(){ pinMode(3,INPUT); //SWITCH pinMode(5,OUTPUT); pinMode(4,OUTPUT); } void [ READ MORE ]

Blink that light

We don’t give it much thought when we turn on a light bulb. For us it’s just a flick of the switch and that’s it! So it shouldn’t be too much trouble. Or could it? I picked up the ITP PCOMP kit at the NYU Computer Store for around $93 including taxes. Inside it’s a [ READ MORE ]
