I finally got around to installing a set of fuses and a terminal strip on an old computer power supply that I had. 3.3V @ 20A, 5V @ 16A, 12V @ 16A, thus the need for fuses! I also added a small digital voltage regulator that you can see in the bottom left of the pic, so I have a variable power supply that I can step down to a specific voltage if necessary.
Thanks for viewing!

EZ-Robot Roli

I've been taking a course to learn all of the features of this EZ-Robot Roli. It has an awesome software package that enables you to perform facial recognition, voice commands, line following, etc.
I'll be teaching this course in May and am looking forward to all of the great ideas my students will come up with.
You can find out more at EZ Robot Website

PIC Programming with PICkit 2

Wow!, I make one post then turn around and another year has passed me by....YIKES!
What I am going to try to do is take a pic of each of the projects I'm working on and post them here. I've been busy with Raspberry Pi attendance monitors (Pi, Barcode Scanner & mariadb backend), Pi remote controls (using the above attendance monitor) and have gone back to playing with PIC micros using assembler and C compiler!

Here is a photo of my ...old... PICkit 2 connected to the microchip Low Pin Count Demo board. If you want to check out some AWESOME tutorials on programming the PIC's go to David Meiklejohn's site gooligum (cool name!)
