Maker: Beni Issler

Home: California

Beni Blocks are a LEGO-adjacent creative building toy for kids and kids-at-heart! Each block is a 1mm flat sheet with 1cm deep grooves, which can slot into other blocks. They can be made out of many materials and in any shape. You can make blocks out of recycled junk from home (toilet paper rolls, cardboard boxes, business cards, metal cans...), 3D print your own blocks, or laser cut or CNC them. They are a cheap, open source platform for playful engineering 😀

Chytřejší než vypadá: Robot za 10 €

Faire: Prague

Maker: Radim Děrda

Home: Czech Republic

Na našem stánku představíme bitBeam4 – jednoduchou, otevřenou a cenově dostupnou stavebnici pro tvorbu funkčních modelů a robotů, kterou si může kdokoli vytisknout na 3D tiskárně. Návštěvníci si budou moci: - sestavit vlastní konstrukci z dílků bitBeam4, - vyzkoušet řízení robota pomocí mobilního telefonu, - podívat se, jak autonomní robot řízený mobilem sleduje vytýčenou trasu a zvládá různé překážky, - a samozřejmě si popovídat o tom, jak si doma postavit vlastního robota téměř zdarma. Chceme ukázat, že technika může být cenově dostupná, kreativní a hlavně zábavná – ať už jste dítě, rodič, učitel nebo zapálený bastlíř.

ZANT

Faire: Rome

Maker: Francesco Salmaso

Zant è un framework Open Sorce AI, per l'implementazione di reti neurali profonde su dispositivi a basso consumo come i core Cortex M R e RISC-V e le schede Arduino; è scritto in Zig, un nuovo linguaggio di programmazione che è esso stesso open sorce, e presenta una sintassi simile al C con migliori capacità di meta-programmazione. Il progetto è in fase di sviluppo, ma è già in uso e su Github ha più di 280 stelle, c'è una partnership ufficiale con Arduino e con il Politecnico di Milano. Porteremo alcune schede Arduino con demo per mostrare quanto sia facile configurarle e utilizzarle nei vostri progetti.

THE BOOOYYYS

Faire: Prague

Maker: Šimon Vopat

Home: Czech Republic

Na stánku bude několik notebooků, na kterých poběží ukázkové programy, které bude možno vyzkoušet (pinball, miny..), případně bude možnost zdržet se déle a stvořit na nich něco vlastního. Dále budou na stánku různé elektronické obvody, některé statické, jiné na vyzkoušení. Dost možná toho bude i víc, podle toho, jak si vzpomenu 🙂

VUT – Robotický manipulátor

Faire: Brno

Maker: Jakub Liška

Home: Czech Republic

Na Maker Faire predstavím výsledok mojej diplomovej práce - Robotický manipulátor s využitím RC komponentov a serv. Cieľom diplomovej práce bolo zostrojiť robotické rameno za pomoci 3D tlače a bežne dostupných komponentov. Návštevníci sa môžu tešiť na robota vytlačeného na 3D tlačiarni, ktorý má dosah vyše 1 meter a je ho možné ovládať za pomoci počítača. Robotické rameno poháňajú krokové motory typu Nema, rovnaké ako v 3D tlačiarňach alebo CNC frézach, riadené je pomocou Raspberry Pi4B a ESP32 a pohyb sa zadáva z laptopu alebo PC. Súčasťou predstavenia budú aj dynamické ukážky.

Open Source Hardware and Software

Faire: Bay Area

Maker: John Pickens

Home: New Jersey

Two open source hardware projects on display. One is a mostly 3D printed 35mm analog film to digital camera scanner. Resolves analog 35mm negatives to near their original resolution. The second is a mostly 3D printed 8mm analog film to 4K HD digital movie scanner. Both of these projects show the power of free and open source hardware projects to deliver results that are superior to most widely available commercial alternatives. The third part of the exhibition is Free and Open Source software, particularly for CAD design. We focus on OpenScad and Freecad with information to show how using this software can avoid a lifetime of paid subscription fees for closed source alternatives.

Flapper – drony inspirované přírodou

Faire: Prague

Maker: Matěj Karásek

Home: Czech Republic

Flapper jsou létající roboti inspirovaní hmyzem a ptáky - místo vrtulí tedy létají za pomocí mávajících křídel. Vedle atraktivního vzhledu jsou oproti vrtulovým dronům i bezpečnější, a to díky nízké hmotnosti, absenci nebezpečných vrtulí a schopností během letu odolávat drobným kolizím. Návštěvníci se mohou těšit na letové ukázky, vysvětlíme, jak drony létají a jak se ovládají, a bude možné si vyzkoušet i jejich pilotáž v praxi.
