  • Towards 5 WiFi thermocouples
    This is interesting as I meet a guy locked inside the national park and have a conversation about the developments. Sitting on the desk now I have 4 of 5 just logging on the net. The challenge continues MP4 recording     MP3 recording -- -- Your browser does not support the audio element.

  • Apollo 11
    From the waves of acceleration "Po-going" through the structure, the cardboard and tape on the lander, the big mix up between the landing and the walk, and the bounce before reentry all add to the detail of this Wonder of the 20 Century.

  • Past Matterials Reborn
    I address the question, can we make a student proof thermometer that is cheap and wont break ever? The answer leads me to revisit old friends (materials) that have had the odd make over and a new life out side the lab.

  • Molecular tour of Kapton
    This was the plastic of choice for Apollo 11, but also for lots of aircraft and everyday electronics like transformer winding. I just really love the stuff as it can take high temperature. It is the go to material if you are building any sort of point or line heater. I think I should be coated with the stuff when they bury me. At any rate strap in for the molecular tour as the atoms are arranged in my head and I give you the audio tour. MP4 recording     MP3 recording -- -- Your browser does not support the audio element.

  • Internet of Things - Progress
    There are tucked away in the recesses of Arduino and Wget commands that actually make IOT work, but they are not advertised and the internet support forums don't highlight them. I think it is because people are not trying to get end to end generic solutions or something. Due to a mishap you have the good old periodic table recall at the end. I think the problems are so old that and the solutions so used that they have become embedded as features of the two languages, and as they are text languages the solutions are like thinking of a new word and splicing it into a dictionary for the user to find. I must have spent over six hours cracking this one. It is hard to see how it is all worth it. MP4 recording     MP3 recording -- -- Your browser does not support the audio element.

    I try to talk through the computer in your toaster, speaks to the computer in California, then to your desk top and the secrets to programming them all. MP4 recording     MP3 recording -- -- Your browser does not support the audio element.

  • Company Profile _ 3D Obsession
    Thinking back I did not explain what 3D printing was, a mistake that I will learn from. For me it was great to meet this company and see the incredible future we have in front of us. MP4 recording     MP3 recording -- -- Your browser does not support the audio element.
