Fwd: Donation through PayPal Giving Fund

Hmm, this seems like a good way to get around Paypal fees, no? // Matt ---------- Forwarded message ---------- From: Mitar <mitar(a)tnode.com> Date: Fri, May 20, 2016 at 2:10 PM Subject: Donation through PayPal Giving Fund To: Matthew Senate <mattsenate(a)gmail.com>, Jenny Ryan <tunabananas(a)gmail.com > Hi!

tiny oscilloscope / logic analyzer / signal generator

by Jake

yesterday we received a donation of a box of cool hacking gear, including arduino shields and servo motors and breadboards and stuff. among the stuff was a Gabotronics XMEGA Xprotolab, a tiny oscilloscope with a lot of functions!!!!! it's the coolest thing ever. http://www.gabotronics.com/development-boards/xmega-xprotolab.htm it's presently hanging on the electronics workbench in its bag, and the bag has a stuff.sudo sticker on it that links to https://sudoroom.org/wiki/O:305 I look forward to putting these things in the vending machine. Is anyone going to work on a web app for the vending machine, so people can pay for things coming out of it? -jake

giant laser for the robot

by Jake

we got a giant laser for the robot. This will allow it to cut things precisely for us, even if they're really large. of course to do this we'll have a safety interlock to prevent use by untrained people, and we'll have a safety curtain or folding wall to deploy around the robot while the laser is enabled, so nobody can accidentally see the light coming from it. I don't know the wavelength of the laser, but it's a giant laser diode array with a lens on the end, and it has a water cooling jacket, and i think i was told it's a 75 watt laser. we do have a way to power it. if anyone wants to get involved with playing with this, please let me know. I think we could get it to the point where it could cut through some serious stuff, and the extremely large work area of the robot is a big deal. -jake

vending machine is working!

by Jake

as I said in February, the vending machine is basically at operational status: https://sudoroom.org/pipermail/sudo-discuss/2016-February/011770.html and as I said in April, I now know how we will perfect the motor homing issue: https://sudoroom.org/pipermail/sudo-discuss/2016-April/011894.html but for now, it works well enough that I was able to dispense one of the candy bars in the machine without cheating and opening up the machine. I didn't even need to power cycle it, the beaglebone in there was just up and working already! thanks to rcsheets who stocked the vending machine with delicious candy bars! products 1030, 1031, and 1032 by the way let me know if you want to help get the vending machine working better. we need simple hardware work, complex hardware work, and software work! -jake

electrospinning

by Cere Misc

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Electrospinning I am getting really interested in this rapidly expanding field that crosses between many different disciplines. Specifically, for me, I am interested in the intersection of electric fields and textile fiber creation and just general structural emergent properties. Wondering if there are others on the list that might find this area interesting and want to work on making a diy electrospinner? -Cere

entrepreneurial use of non-profit

by robb

is it lawful for people to join sudoroom to use it exclusively as an office space for their for-profit proprietary startup that has no public benefit?
