Designed and printed a base for glass blocks. It has a circuit board that I designed and software written by me. It is controllable via MQTT and I have it integrated with HomeKit via Home Bridge.

Deine Welt und meine Welt…

Eine Welt ohne Winden.

I really should finish season 3.

[–] [email protected] 2 points 1 year ago

Uh. Once you hit the last episode of season 1, it's nearly impossible not to finish the season.

It took me a minute though. I knew I recognized it from somewhere, but my German is currently at a toddler level so I know I didn't read the book haha.

That is so sick. I’ve always loved how these glass bricks look, awesome job

[–] ghostseven 2 points 1 year ago

Thank you, I am really happy with how it turned out.

Nice! Any chance you did a write up or have any other details about the project to share?

[–] ghostseven 2 points 1 year ago

I have not, but I shall put something together, I will post back here when I have.

[–] ghostseven 2 points 1 year ago

Looks neat ^^ Does it serve any purpose or is it "just" decorative?
Also, is that Kodak banding some kind of filter or did you really shoot the photos with a non-digital camera?

[–] ghostseven 1 points 1 year ago

It is purely decorative, it could be used to indicate air quality with different colours or alert to events, it is controllable via MQTT and I have it tied into my HomeKit setup. It is just a filter, I needed to break up the individual pictures, I have not used a non digital camera in quite some time.

(Also god damn Lemmy is broken right now, been trying to post this comment on and off for hours now).
