I have been trying to design a K9 for 3D printing for a while, even using Fusion 360 getting the body designed has been a stumbling block, On Facebook, there is a k-9 builders community and a link to an OneDrive account with 200 x 200 sliced STLs. I have […]

More than a few years ago, I bought myself a Remote Control boat, a Kyosho Wave Master: The WaveMaster is a semi scale model of an F-1 tunnel hull racing boat. Tunnel hulls work by trapping a cushion of air between the hull and water to reduce friction which allows […]
To facilitate remote tech support, we need a server some place safe, like this one. We also need to give the Raspberry Pi a username and password so it can log in (this article was used as a guide). But why would we want to do this? I am looking to […]
What Do I Need? Raspberry Pi unit with Raspbian installed Ethernet connection to R-Pi USB Wi-Fi Stick In addition to the above items, you will need to check the configuration of the Wi-Fi network you plan to connect to, you will need the SSID, password, and encryption type/method (e.g. the […]
As part of my R-Pi K-9 I want to have a web browser interface, (also because I want to build an ROV) I don’t have a beaglebone black. Using a web browser as my interface will allow me to use my recently acquired iPad to control it, I want to […]
I found the following code extracts for the Arduino (I have a Diavolino) to work with the RS485 shield from here: Code for the transmitter: Code for the receiver: And a guide for the R-Pi shield (from here). Putting the two together (I don’t have two Arduinos and shields) so […]
Following on from the RS485 on an Raspbery Pi post, I also picked up a LinkSprite RS485 Arduino board from RoboSavvy (Arduino RS485 schematics). I plan on trying to get the two to talk to each other, using a short bit of three cores: A aka ‘-‘ aka TxD-/RxD- aka […]
The Link Sprite RS485 GPIO Sheild for a Raspberry Pi alows you to make use of (abuse) the RS232 port in the R-Pi’s GPIO as an RS 485 Port. There are several good advantages to RS 485 over 232 and some awsome ones. RS485 is capable of both multidrop and […]
These images came from my “dot” (made by kogeto. link) The app doesn’t seem to be working quite as well as it used to (crashes out), and well requires me to take the case off my iPhone; I am wondering how to turn these images into panoramas using ImageMagick or […]
