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

PC Fisso Portatile – Portable Desktop

Faire: Rome

Maker: Mirko Tumbiolo

 

Our project consists in changing the common use of a desktop, allowing you to carry it wherever you want with the comfort of a simple backpack. It consists precisely in mounting the hardware on a wooden fiber structure which in turn fits into a specially modified backpack to allow the use of peripherals, an integrated display with stereo sound system and which guarantees adequate cooling. In addition, thanks to a battery we were able to guarantee a desktop computer an autonomy and much greater than a laptop, of 50 hours.

PlasticDrawn

Faire: Rome

Maker: Martino Colucci

 

PLASTICDRAWN is a project that, with the help of 3D FDM printing, aims to raise awareness of the recycling of plastic packaging such as bottles and webbing. They are a frequent problem at organised events (such as trade fairs) and in logistical packaging operations (increasingly frequent nowadays), respectively. The aim is to put into action the process of realising the idea at the fair, in a kind of performance that raises awareness of recycling, presented as a real opportunity to make products, easily visible to the public present.
