In my head
- Convert the IR code database from LIRC to the format used by the iTach should be easy - but I haven't got around to it.
- Making a scale railway crossing barrier for my young train obsessed nephew - mechanical advice needed!
- Ballbot remake - sourcing the omni-wheels is a problem - they are very cool wheels - almost the entire circumference rotates perpendicularly to the main axis of rotation.
In progress
- Candela - A Java API for controlling home lighting systems - initially those made by Rako.
- Making some kind of LED flashy christmas cubaubles with the laser cutter
Actually got around to finishing
- Constructing an LED tape light fitting using insanely bright LEDs:
- Constructing a ventilation system for my home AV cabinet (just an IKEA Bonde sideboard)
