Various AI

Logging and statting

Who's in web indicator

Hackspace is ON/OFF web indicator

TODO

  • Weigh components!
  • New base, direct motor wheel connections with Pololu hubs and laser cut wheels, new alu motor brackets
  • Motors: test drive commands with PWM enable line - power from AA batt pack
  • test MICRO LED
  • volume control from command line sudo /etc/acpi/voldownbtn.sh ??
  • shutdown eeePC from command line "sudo shutdown now"
  • IP publish with wget
  • http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Situation_calculus
  • test voice recognition
  • new Java code on eeepc: add Mapping class
    • choose a grid size and calculate the requirements for navigating the Hackspace - could do dynamic map and discovery
    • "Unexpected item in the bagging area"
    • "Somebody move this wall"
    • "Somebody move this person" (PIR detection required)
    • http://www.societyofrobots.com/programming_wavefront.shtml
  • When no goal start mapping the room
  • Work on the IRC module
  • ad-hoc commands using bean method introspection or BeanShell scripts

LED NTI board

Lathe

  • basic manual operation
  • wheels
  • 22mm mounting (wood?)

Joule Thief

I have a 2N3704 transistor (rather than a 2N3904) so the Base, Collector, and Emitter of this NPN are in different locations...

I also have a regular 2xAA battery holder which somebody has hacked and is slightly melted on one side! I will use this as a single AA battery holder. So my toroid centre tap goes to battery +ve.
