Costume Di Scena Automatico per Danzatori e Artisti

Faire: Rome

Maker: Giorgio Liberini

 

A costume with integrated LEDs that light up and change color based on its position: this is the core of a project designed specifically to provide performers with an innovative tool. The costume detects the position, and every movement gently modifies the shades, colors, and light intensity. This dynamic response is governed by specific programmable rules. The scenic effect is extraordinary, both during rapid movements and slow movements, eliciting wonder from the audience about the connection between movement and the device's response

BR – Un bracciale per controllare il mondo

Faire: Rome

Maker: Agnello Pepe

 

IL BR is a simple wearable device that allows you to control your PC and beyond by simply moving a hand. The device recognizes the acceleration produced by movement and compares it with user-selected and fully customizable "trigger" values, so as to simulate pressing a key on the keyboard, to control various aspects of your PC, to scroll through a presentation smoothly and much more. Thanks to the Internet connection, the BR can connect to very distant devices (such as drones, radio-controlled cars and much more) and control them remotely thanks to the acceleration produced by the user. The presence of a rechargeable battery allows uninterrupted use for over 4 hours. The case like the strap are totally 3D printed so as to be light and suitable for any user. The BR is supported by a PC interface that allows you to fully customize any aspect of the device. Like “trigger” accelerations, simulated keystrokes and much more. Furthermore, once the interface is closed after connecting the device, the BR will continue to work in the background allowing for simple and fluid use.

Cyber Escape Room – attacco alla Nerd Corporation

Faire: Rome

Maker: CINI Consorzio Interuniversitario Nazionale per l'Informatica

 

Thirty minutes to infiltrate the computer system of the Nerd Corporation to prevent the evil organization from launching a cyber attack. This is the challenge to be solved in the escape room created by the Cybersecurity National Lab of the CINI (National Interuniversity Consortium for Informatics) and the IMT School of Advanced Studies Lucca. The objective is to raise awareness of cybersecurity and the relationship between privacy, digital and exposure to risk. A team of volunteer hackers will be trained and sent on a mission to break into the Nerd Corporation's lair and to steal its secret plans. It is played in teams made up of a maximum of 4 people, divided between a team on the field and a team at the terminal. The field team recovers clues and moves through the escape room while the terminal team uses computer tools to solve the challenges. The challenge lasts 30 minutes and the complete experience takes about 45.

Wi-Fi Enabled Stratum-1 GNSS Time Server Built From Scratch

Faire: Rome

Maker: Cristiano Monteiro

 

My hands-on approach to dissecting IoT from the inside led me to fulfill a long-time dream of having an on-site Stratum-1 Network Time Protocol (NTP) server. NTP is the decades-old synchronization protocol that keeps networked computer clocks accurate. The best-case scenario for an NTP server is being fed from a Stratum-1 time source, that is, for instance, connected to the source of a VERY accurate time, usually an atomic clock (also called, Stratum-0). A good amount of Stratum-0 time sources is constantly floating over our heads! The GPS satellites, each one carrying at least two cesium atomic clocks (accurate up to 1 second every 300 million years). The idea of using GPS as a time source is not new, there are dozens of commercial products available doing precisely that. But my goal is to make it cheap, accurate, self-contained, dual-powered (mains and batteries), wireless-enabled, and portable to use on the field in my HAM Radio activities. Powered by the ever-expanding universe of microcontroller units, this goal is closer than ever. Current functionalities: - Internal RTC synched from GPS satellites constellation (backed by CR2032 battery) - Dual voltage powered - Backup battery for the whole unit (18650) - NTP and RDATE (RFC868) protocols supported - WiFi functionality as a client or access point - Syslog logging - Configuration webpage for WiFi and Syslog, saving to persistent storage (LittleFS) - Informative display with a timestamp, satellites in view, accuracy, wifi server, IP address - Dual function button, short press switch information on display, long press disables WiFi - Status at a glance, with dedicated 5mm LEDs for GPS lock, PPS signal, and WiFi status, as well as visible internal LEDs for charging and GPS module statuses
