Check out my latest project, an AR Business Card! Virtual Reality and Augmented Reality technology innovation is growing at a fast pace. Soon, we may all need AR glasses to not miss out on the new world being built invisibly all around us. #innovation #technology #vr #ar

My family & I recently visited the beautiful country of Japan. In our journey through the serene city of Kyoto, my husband & I had the opportunity to be introduced to Yushin-Ryu, a katana yielding martial art ⚔️ Under the instruction of Yushin Sensei, Osayo Senpai, & Shogo, we were fully immersed into the art. We learned about the history of the Samurai art, the philosophy, & basic drawing, defending & attacking techniques. The profound knowledge, patience, & passion for Yushin-Ryu displayed by our instructors was awe-inspiring. We are deeply humbled by the kindness & generosity in sharing this extraordinary martial art with us 🙏🏼 To the enlightening practice of Yushin-Ryu, our instructors: Yushin Sensei, Osayo Senpai, Shogo, & to everyone else we met in Kyoto, どうもありがとうございました. We are truly grateful. My husband & I are looking forward to continuing our training in this beautiful art 🌸🥋 @SimonPadron17 @yushinkanhonbu @634_034 #LetsAskShogo #YushinRyu #MartialArts #Kyoto #Japan #JourneyTogether #ThankYou

Hi everyone! As part of my Advanced Product Design graduate course, we are conducting a survey to learn more about people's preferences for a device that keeps your drinks cold or hot. We would appreciate if you could fill out the survey below. Thank you! forms.gle/g4Eyi3p34huvcNvLA

I did some testing and found that adding color to 3D printed photographs is possible! My thought was to add the color by painting the back of the lithophanes and I was surprised by the results. Check out the color lithophane below. #3Dprinting #photography #art #lithophane

Did you know that you can 3D print photographs? When I found out about this technique, known as #lithophane #photography, I had to test the limits. Here is one of my projects, a lithophane lamp. The best part is you can do this with a regular FDM printer. #3dprinting #3dprint

Wireless charging, automatic low battery sensing, and dock location sensing to find its way back to the charging station, sound like good options for Bittle 2.0 😃. Also, how about a dedicated iOS/android app? So many possibilities. @PetoiCamp #robotics #arduino #opencat
if there's a way to detect the battery level, Bittle can just go near the charging station and take a rest for the night. Then it'd be energetic the next morning.

Today is #GokuDay Everyone! The first piece of code I wrote was for an engraving machine &, being a 10yr old kid that watched #anime, I programmed the machine to engrave a drawing of Goku. I consider this engraving the start of my journey into #engineering & #science. #STEM

Why settle with 1 computer screen when you can have up to 360° screen coverage using VR? After trying out various apps, I settled with @ImmersedVR. The low latency & capability to track a physical keyboard, makes this app stand out above the rest. #vr #Oculus #tech #engineering

Here is my infinity box project. I had to find a way to display my patent award. The infinite reflections represent my never ending pursuit to innovate. #innovation #3Dprinting #3dmodeling #wallart
Here is a modification to get your Bittle to charge wirelessly! Now, Bittle can have his own sleeping area. I also created a new pose for Bittle to go to sleep and have his belly touch the charging pad. @PetoiCamp #100DaysOfCode #arduino #Robotics

I searched for a wireless charging receiver that would be small enough to fit within the dimensions of the battery. Here is the one I used: amazon.com/dp/B08DKY2ZP5/ref…

To charge, I looked for a wireless charging pad that would be thin enough for the robot to walk over and fit between the legs. I chose this charging pad: amazon.com/dp/B08BF91BWW/ref…

If you don’t have the bone for Bittle, I found that you can still mount the MU Vision sensor by clipping it behind the teeth of Bittle and having the lower mouth bite the bottom part of the wifi module. It’s held steady for me. @Canard_pimpant @PetoiCamp #100DaysOfCode #arduino

Continuing with teaching my robot dog, Bittle, new tricks. I’ve modified the code and integrated the smart vision sensor to recognize hand gestures. Now, you can wave to Bittle and he can wave back! Check out what else he can do in the video. @PetoiCamp @arduino #100DaysOfCode
