Circuit Breakers

We hit the big 10 mark; it looks like we may become a thing, please reach out to us and let us know what you’d like to hear via Instagram, Facebook or LinkedIn. Christian is an old friend, and we get to chat about all sorts of cool stuff. You can find him on LinkedIn here: https://www.linkedin.com/in/xianritchie/

This week we talk about intelligent learning, patents and searching them. We also talk about audio and where things are going.

This episode is a week later than we recorded. We have finally started catching up from CES 2018. A K is the founder and CEO of KnowThings a machine learning platform that simulates lots of things at once to build a better product.

You can learn more about know things at: http://knowthings.io/EAP and http://knowthings.io

A K is also the CTO of his wife's farm funkin fresh farms in the Dallas area. Look for more about the farm coming soon.

This episode was recorded during the holidays and the last one of 2017. Noel announces a new company he is working on as well as his current company Sprinkl (http://sprinkl.io).

We will have more after CES and there is so much to come during 2018.

To find out more about Noel you can find him at https://www.linkedin.com/in/ngeren/

This week we talk about IoT and what our special guest Kurt Kelley is up to around the world. Kurt has been working in the IoT space for quite some time. Although he can't talk about his current projects specifically we do talk about what the landscape looks like and how to avoid some of the pitfalls we have both seen in the industry. We also chat about what the next big things are in 2018 and what to expect.

More can be found for Kurt at http://linkedin.com/in/kurtkelleydfw or find him on twitter @kurtkelley (https://twitter.com/kurtkelley)

We are finally back after a very long time. We'll be coming from a new studio more on that soon. In the meantime enjoy catching up with our guest from Aberfoyle Associates Mark Langford. You can find out more about Mark at www.aberfoyleassociates.com and contact him there.

I was a bit nervous coming back, it seems we all will start somewhere.

P.S. thanks to Kyle Kondas for engineering this episode for me.

In this episode while Jay @BlueJayConcepts is off getting hitched we talk to Peter Swanson about what he’s doing with drones. Peter is working with fixed wing drones not the new fancier rotary style or quad copter style drones.

Peter goes a little deep on the history dating back to before radios and even remote controls, GASP! We even talk about the science behind flying at different altitudes, touch on what it takes for batteries on your quad copter versus fixed wing gasoline powered engines that are super efficient. The best part we declassify peter’s work a bit since the microphone loosens his lips.

We’ll have peter back for more for the future, we just got him started this time.

Hope you enjoy and we’ll be back to regularly scheduled fun next episode

@jax989 (Jax) and @bluejayconcepts (Jay) the guys who really break circuits every so often.

In this week’s episode we start covering more about tech and what’s going on around us. Jay finds out about gaming with Screeps MMOG - https://screeps.com/. Jax talks about Patrick’s cabinets, and raspberry pi downloads to turn your pi into an arcade system (http://www.iliketomakestuff.com/raspberry-pi-arcade-part-1/). Our Guest Chirag Gupta jumps in with gaming as well: Ludum Dare Game Jam: https://www.eventbrite.com/e/ludum-dare-game-jam-dallas-tickets-17506508438

We also get nerdy with AutoDesk http://www.solidsmack.com/cad/autodesks-new-incubator-partnership-puts-free-software-in-the-hands-of-hardware-entrepreneurs/ and how they can help you design some of your hardware or help with needs.

Dallas is getting a new Hardware Accelerator Rebel Dallas Hardware Accelerator - http://rebeldfw.com/ and @IzzyDiChiara is the person to talk to about them. Maybe a future guest.

Finally as we talk education with Chirag we learn about the Fall Tech Splash: https://www.eventbrite.com/e/fall-tech-splash-for-grownups-kids-tickets-17842512435 where even 2nd graders are learning how to code from Dr. Allen Sellars.

Dr. John at UNT http://engineering.unt.edu/content/dr-kuruvilla-john is starting to do cool things with environmental sensors and collecting data and eventually we may see drones collecting data on the North Texas Environment.

Chirag and Jax were wowed by high schoolers at the CAN Hacks event https://www.facebook.com/pages/CANHacks. The cool projects have lead to some cool potential remembering products.

Thanks to this weeks guest @ChicagoGupta and as always @Jax989 and @BluJConcepts to keep you straight.

This is our premier episode with Blu J Concepts (@blujconcepts) and Jax (@jax989) talking about all things hardware in Dallas and beyond. We realized there aren't that many good Internet of Things, Maker Podcasts out there and would like to find out more.

In this episode we talk about Microsoft's Hololens, Node Bots DFW, Thermoelectric chargers, and a few other things.
