f@b.CPL – f@b.SmartCity

Faire: Lisbon

Maker: Casa Pia de Lisboa, IP

Home: Lisboa/Lisboa/Belém, Portugal

O f@b.SmartCity nasceu do projeto f@b.TGV no Ano Europeu do Transporte Ferroviário. Inicialmente assentava na construção de um comboio e respetivas infraestruturas adjacentes, permitindo aos alunos o desenvolvimento de competências na área do desenho, eletrónica, robótica, telecomunicações, sensibilizando-os ainda para temas como o ambiente e a sustentabilidade. Com estes últimos temas, surgiu a ideia de criar uma cidade inteligente e ao mesmo tempo sustentável do ponto de vista energético e dos demais recursos. Para a exposição transportamos apenas uma fração de dimensão reduzida do f@b.SmartCity, dada a impossibilidade de movimentar o projeto patente nas instalações do f@b.CPL.

Handheld CNC Router

Faire: Bay Area

Maker: Cameron Chaney

Home: California, United States

I'm showcasing my DIY Handheld CNC Router project! It's a portable CNC router for precise 2D cuts on the go. Users move the router roughly along a pre-set path, while the bit adjusts to compensate for user error. Sensors detect the router’s position and orientation relative to the workpiece, then shift the cutting bit as needed. Unique to my design, positioning comes from optical flow sensors embedded inside the device – like those in computer mice. This simplifies its use and enables precise machining without prior setup. I've also implemented advanced control systems for stability and precision. While this started out as my Mechatronics capstone project, I am still developing the technology and hope to eventually bring open source Handheld CNC Router kits to the public.
