#Fabricademy bootcamp 2025
May 19→25

Don't miss this year's bootcamp in Brussels to encounter international fellows in the field of #textile, #engineering and #biology.

I am co-organizing it through the #fablab @GreenFabric and the #fabricademy team (@fabtextiles ).

A great opportunity to test Fabricademy themes and way of working through intense hands-on workshops. It will cover #biomaterials with #mycelium #fungi, #modulardesign, #machineknitting with the #kniterate machine, using the #opensourcehardware machines that we built, #etextile with thermochromic inks.

Don't miss also the #MakerFaire on the following week-end (May 26-27) with the Fabricademy exhibition of final projects and a workshop on #softrobotics.

Boosts are more than welcome!

Hey masto babes.

Edit: COVERED! And so fast! I would take more copies but the need is fully met! I am still taking various donations for my tech camp, I've made many posts recently and will make more.

This is a pretty long shot but ey, why not.

Anyone got a copy of Open Circuits I could have? I misplaced mine and I'm bummed, I love that gorgeous book. I use it for education and I can't afford one rn.

I finished assembling the TriacControl https://www.github.com/profdc9/TriacControl speed controller, which phase controls a universal motor based on an analog or PWM signal. It is to control the router spindle speed for a 2.5D CNC machine using the PWM output of a CNC controller. It could also be used with the PWM of a microcontroller, as the input can be configured for 3.3V-24V. The control signal and motor are opto-isolated. #diy #electronics #openhardware #hardware #opensourcehardware

Mit Motto “Innovation durch Offenheit” startete in Dresden die erste deutschlandweite Konferenz mit dem Schwerpunkt #OpenSourceHardware. Wir waren dabei & berichten euch einzelne Einblicke, Erfolge und neue Verbindungen zu Industrie & Forschung.

Wir freuen uns bereits auf die nächste Veranstaltung 2025 in Chemnitz.

Ein kleiner Ausblick auf unser neues NGI Search Projekt ist auch dabei.

Video of the talk @mossmann gave at ShmooCon 2025 is here! Watch to learn how the open source ecosystem and FPGA architecture behind tools like Cynthion have made USB research more accessible. https://youtu.be/eedIlLA37XU?si=u1KRjLqBZX-9-hB3

Why I switched our open-source project's forum hosting to @nodebb and how it's helping us kick-start our community:

Need some help with (fairly simple) electrical/controls for some AC pumps! If you could help, you can click or paste this URL into Mastodon search bar and reply via Mastodon: https://fbrc.nodebb.com/post/18

Thanks in advance!

Getting the pics for writing the docs on how to assemble our upcoming cell that will be part of an open-source flow battery development kit: (https://fbrc.dev)

Just wrote a new blogpost on the progress we've made with our open-source flow battery, check it out and let us know what you think! (ideally in our forum so that we can kickstart our community )

#realTimeChem my colleague Daniel testing one of our designs for an open-source flow battery test cell, testing some different electrolytes based on zinc, iodine, and iron for https://fbrc.dev

The cell is working much better now and after some changes we made, a lot more of the parts are FDM-printable!

Nothing draws me in quite like a thermal simulation of a PCB that looks awesome or a photo of an ultra compact #electronics Lukas Henkel excels at showing bot.

He joined me on The Amp Hour this week to talk about OV Tech's #opensourcehardware products like the PiMX8 or their forthcoming SIP with Thintronics. Lots of great tips on how to create high speed designs and compelling visualizations of #hardware.

For the record, Lukas designs almost every #pcb with #altium

About to present our project at a French research network for redox flow batteries, here are my slides: https://fbrc.codeberg.page/gdr2024-slides/#/title-slide
