Ground-level view of underneath a small grill, with a mounted servo + gear assembly attached to the bottom damper and grill legs.
Spinning a gear mounted to a ball bearing on a 3D printed assembly to demonstrate the free movement.
Photo of a NVIDIA Jetson Nano with a SSD board on top of a dusty bookshelf. A USB SDR + antenna are highlighted. Various White Sox bobbleheads and a WiFi router are in the foreground.
An upside-down Raspberry Pi 3 with two USB software-defined radios attached, all inside the top half of 3D-printed enclosure. Antenna connectors go from the top of the shell to the SDRs.
A "Mini-WSM" smoker at work with clear-ish smoke coming from the top and the sound of sizzles from the meat cooking inside.
A "Mini-Weber Smokey Mountain" at work: a Weber Smokey Joe with a modified tamale pot. The grill's dampers have also been modified with bolts and champagne corks to act as insulated handles.
The front of a finished jockeybox, a conversion of a "White Sox World Champions 2005" Coleman Steel Series cooler.
Video from a Chicago Blackhawks game on a TV leading up to a goal and a NHL Goal Light being activated for that goal. The two occurrences are not time-aligned.
A post-hack NHL Goal Light being activated with a "Hey Siri" command.
A test of a pre-hack NHL Goal Light, pressing its trigger button and having the light activate and horn sound.
An opened NHL Goal Light with the battery compartment lid reattached and glued on. A wire from a trigger circuit is also routed into the compartment.
A NHL Goal Light opened from the bottom on a messy workbench.
A video demonstration of an Apple TV app being region-locked from the USA, then a "VPN to Finland" home automation switch turned on, and then that same app working flawlessly.
An original rev Jetson Nano demo board with a SATA HDD attachment. In the foreground is a Netgear R9000 router and to the left are several White Sox bobbleheads.
A defiltered Raspberry Pi camera with (I think) a M12 adapter, encased in a long rectangular 3D printed enclosure/mounting bracket.
Home Assistant sensor code, hitting MLB's REST API and filtering down to see if the Chicago White Sox currently had a game in progress
Video of an Android tablet on a fridge sending Airplay audio to multiple nodes in a messy condo.
Demo of the kegbot reading a NFC card and unlocking its valves.
A Sanyo mini-fridge with a Raspberry Pi, a Kegbot device, flow meters, NFC card reader, a relay, and LED circles on top.
