Compass Handheld CNC Router

Faire: Bay Area

Maker: Compass CNC

Home: California, United States

Compass is a handheld CNC router for precise 2D cuts on the go. Users move the device roughly along a desired path, while Compass moves the cutting tool in real-time to compensate for user error. It does this using optical flow sensors inside the device – like those in computer mice – to determine where it is on the workpiece. This sensing technology allows for simplified and precise machining without prior setup. We've implemented advanced control systems to maintain stability and precision. We are currently polishing the technology and plan to launch Compass Handheld CNC Router kits in the next couple months!

Verilog Meetup – Get into FPGA Programmable Logic and Learn How the Chips are Designed

Faire: Bay Area

Maker: Verilog Meetup

Home: California, United States

“Verilog, ASIC, FPGA” are not exactly household words, but they are at the very heart of the microelectronics revolution that brought us smartphones, fast internet, 3D graphics and AI acceleration. For the last 40 years, the Verilog hardware description language has been used to design the logic of chips. An ASIC (Application Specific Integrated Circuit) is the chip itself, and an FPGA (Field Programmable Gate Array) is a chip used to prototype an ASIC. Verilog Meetup is a community that meets every Sunday at Hacker Dojo in Mountain View, California, and over Zoom - with participants on all continents. We create Verilog examples used by more than 25 universities worldwide. We run seminars, help to prepare for job interviews, and explore new chip design methodologies.

ETIPADO: Extremely Tall Image Processing And Display Object

Faire: Bay Area

Maker: Grant Patterson

Home: California, United States

ETIPADO: Extremely Tall Image Processing And Display Object is a startling demonstration of the persistence-of-vision effect: Shake your head "no" at a strobing column of light and images appear out of nowhere. Interact with the work by making faces in the work's camera, while friends see you in the strip of LEDs in real time. What's happening? The LEDs display vertical slices of images in fast succession. As your eye moves across the piece, the two-dimensional image “burns” into your retina, one column at a time. Sophisticated processing software takes real-time imagery from the attached digital camera and broadcasts them to the LEDs. ETIPADO is unexpected art: It’s easy to walk by and not notice it. Once discovered, participants are inspired to share the “secret” with those around them.
