ShockSoc Trike Presentation and Team Roles – 19/11/14.
Tomorrow, one of the most defining moments of my life as an electronic product designer/inventor, after much liasing with the brilliant Michael Thompson, should arrive phobass protobody mark II with custom pick guard. For probably the first time in phobass history, all required parts to build a 100% functional and aesthetically pleasing product will be […]
Thank you all for looking at my blog! It means a lot that people out there are actually interested in the stuff I write about. Keep tuned and hopefully, I’ll be able to keep you all entertained with my posts!
After attempting a black and white version (https://hsel.co.uk/2014/09/03/floyd-steinbergesque-dithering-in-matlab/), I decided to further improve my algorithm through different methods. Currently, it uses a 3×3 macroblock size and white this works well for larger images and looks pretty cool, it doesn’t scale well with smaller images! For that reason, I’ve moved to a 2×2 macroblock size for […]
Well I’m in York at the moment on the UKESF workshop thing so I haven’t actually had much time to do any real electronics so its software o’clock! Whenever I’m not doing much, I quite enjoy dabbling in image processing, its not one of my fortés but its always fun so today, I decided to […]
Well today, I thought it was time to add a new font to my graphics library! Its still very alpha. The new font is complete freeware and is names “Share TechMono” (http://goo.gl/flXU7B). I rendered it using GLCD font creator (http://goo.gl/vmnf5u). The problem with this software however is it spits the data out into bytes and […]
Today was payday (Wahoo!), meaning I can buy some really cool and potentially pointless electronic goods to mess around with! I lie, I bought some before payday but shhhhh. My (not so) extensive list of stuff involves: 128×64 LCD based on the ST7920 controller (http://goo.gl/CIoVSk) OV7670 omnivision VGA sensor (http://goo.gl/oJUF4o) A new EPM240 CPLD board […]
Well! Apart from having a nice little travel into London to see the family and a haircut, what have I been up to today you ask? The answer to that resides in my Colour graphics library! Its not very often that I improve on my libraries unless I need to, or I’m bored as I’m […]
Whenever I want to test something out really quick, I always find that Matlab is the easiest way to get things done with ease and don’t worry if you don’t have it, most of the functionality can be found in FreeMat (http://goo.gl/1a6zA)! So today, I’ve come up with the thought of adding some stuff to […]
