We're going to have to do some surgery on this to turn the volume down!

@atomic14.bsky.social hey Chris, just wanted to say thanks for all your content, and in particular your ESP32-Tv series which served as the basis for my Tinytron project: t0mg.github.io/tinytron/ Cheers !

Haven't posted for a while...

This brings back some happy memories :) Original audio and analysis here: www.windytan.com/2012/11/the-...

Proving to be a controversial video - maybe too click baity… This Number Does Nothing! youtu.be/vTLCWy7jDfM

Pretty impressed this worked. Back when I was doing my PhD simply extracting the numbers from an image reliably would have been a good result.

Been messing around with my latest PCB - I've now got a "digital twin". More details at the video: www.youtube.com/watch?v=6vpd...

Details on my Crowd Funding Success(?) youtu.be/HgIxnpIiDv8

Nice - though I’m now regretting not shipping with rubber feet!

It’s finally happening! Apologies for the delay. International bulk shipping to the US has been a bizarre experience.

Your Crowd Supply order (2xxxx9) has shipped! :) www.crowdsupply.com/atomic14/esp... @atomic14.bsky.social

Surprisingly not CR*P - Vibing hardware youtu.be/UQCpDarEoBc

Lates MakerNews is out! makernews.substack.com/p/maker-news...

Bang!

Haven't done a video for ages! youtu.be/2UUn6yFibcM

Pretty interesting - I really thought it would be the capacitors that had gone wonky. youtu.be/0wKVakb23_Q

Wish I was a in Sweden/Denmark… www.dtu.dk/english/cale...

It’s the latest Maker News edition - hot off the press! makernews.substack.com/p/january-20...

This is some serious packing - a box within a box within a box. The displays have arrived safely!

Nothing like scratching your own itch. Wanted a nice easy way to convert from ZX Spectrum SCR files to PNGs. There are some nice command line tools for doing it, but here's my web version. www.esp32rainbow.com/tools/scr-to...

Started ordering components for my ESP32 Rainbow - we've got a lot of displays coming in the post! open.substack.com/pub/esp32zx/...

Nice bit of bathroom electrics :)

Working away… winning awards… ;) Award winning channel? You tell me... youtu.be/2zZvqAEfZ-0

My poor boards got zapped... and they survived! We passed EMC and EMI tests ⚡

Well, this is fine…

Keyboard is a bit useless on the T-Deck. But this is running the same software as my ESP32 Rainbow.

We’ll soon have websites run by hipsters. Hand crafted HTML - or maybe… frontpage!

It works - but unfortunately without reprogramming the keyboard controller it’s pretty useless.

I’ve got to include this on my next board run.

Man flu is an absolute nightmare. Been pretty much knocked out for the entire week.

Congrats @atomic14.bsky.social Just been billed on Crowd Supply. ESP32 Rainbow is now fully funded!!! www.crowdsupply.com/atomic14/esp...

We did it!

Video about loading games into a ZXSpectrum from tape - CTR 4.6%. Video about fixing a broken nose hair trimmer - CTR 8.2% I know what my audience wants :)

Took a nostalgic trip back in time to play with some tape loading. The sounds really do bring back happy childhood memories (and the memories of "R Tape loading error"...) youtu.be/sTRcuNMziwQ

Sometimes have to lunch myself when I look out the window.

On of my amazing backers actually created and published a game back in 1985! Here it is in action on www.crowdsupply.com/atomic14/esp...

Getting very close to fully funded! www.crowdsupply.com/cmg-research...

I try not to let comments like this annoy me, but you do see them an awful lot. news.ycombinator.com/item?id=4218...

Got sound working :) Pretty pleased with this - pretty much the same code that's running on my ESP32 runs on the desktop and in the browser.

My first try at using emscripten - compiling my ESP32 ZX Spectrum emulator to run in the browser. I can't believe how simple this was!

Really starting to lose faith in Azure - how does a Zone Redundant app service randomly just go unavailable?

Turned "someday" into TODAY at Makers Gonna Make Edinburgh 🛠️ Built: Pose detection app Tools: tensorflow.js + react Gained: Amazing maker friends Learned: Just show up and build! s/o to Peter Trizuliak, CodeBase for space & Shopify for fuel ☕️ https://github.com/mantcz/kva-web #buildinpublic

An oldie from my library: youtu.be/oz0a7Ur7nko?...

Trying to tidy my workbench. So far I’ve managed to redistribute the mess onto another table. I now have two workbenches to tidy… check back tomorrow to see how many additional workbenches I’ll be tidying over the week…

At some point I’m really going to have to get to grips with the STM32.

Looking for people to follow here? I've created a starter pack with over 100 people to follow in the Electronics/Maker area! go.bsky.app/J5RbesE

Super fast (well, relative to the original tape) loading. youtu.be/mdzbAfnNPwE?...

I mean, I don’t need one… but that’s never usually stopped buying anything before.

Need to get cracking in the next stages of this project now - it’s just got very real! www.crowdsupply.com/cmg-research...
