Projects
This is a list of various projects, their status, and links to blog posts about them.
- Speed Vest. Status: completed. The Speed Vest is worn while bicyling at night, and shows your speed in glowing electroluminescent wire on your back. It’s a safety feature — increasing rider visiblity to cars — and just plain cool. Based on the Speed Vest project described in volume 19 of MAKE magazine. My build was featured in MAKE:Online.
- Robie the Coasterbot. Status: completed. This is my entry for the robot contest run by MAKE.
- Automatic LED Stair Lighting. Status: in progress. When entering a dark staircase, lights for each stair come on in sequence. It increases safety and makes a lovely visual effect. The idea is based on the stairs shown at interactivefurniture.de. Since they did not provide any details, I had to figure this out myself.
