Circuit Review SE
by Saar Drimer 18 Aug '13

18 Aug '13

Hi All. I feel that this is relevant enough to post here. I've just created a 'Circuit Review' Stack Exchange proposal here: http://area51.stackexchange.com/proposals/58903/circuit-review?referrer=xPQ… I feel that we lack a place where we can post our schematics/layout/BOM and have people review them. This could be very useful for OSHW projects. In order to support this proposal, follow the link above, 'follow' it, suggest questions, and then promote on social networks ;) There's an equivalent site for code review that's already going: codereview.stackexchange.com cheers, saar.

Volunteer(s) for OSHCamp workshop.
by Andrew Back 12 Aug '13

Hello, We'd like to run a soldering workshop on the Sunday for people with little/no soldering experience, at which at they get to assemble the kit mentioned in the previous post. Are there any volunteers for helping out with this? :o) It should obviously be straightforward enough and we're looking to get in 4-5 soldering stations. Cheers, Andrew

OSHCamp board review!
by Andrew Back 07 Aug '13

07 Aug '13

Hi All, Saar has come up with a very cool board design for a kit which is going into the OSHCamp 2013 / Wuthering Bytes goody bag: http://boldport.blogspot.co.uk/2013/08/new-board-wuthering.html This is essentially Ihsan's LittleWire board, re-spun via Saar's PCBmodE, for added wonky track goodness along with other artistic flourishes. Feedback is welcomed and in particular on functional considerations! Cheers, Andrew

Open Hardware Jam
by Mark Johnson 07 Aug '13

07 Aug '13

Hello OSHUGgers! I'm one of the organisers of OggCamp, an annual free culture unconference that's now in it's 5th year, and will be taking place at LJMU in Liverpool on the 19th and 20th of October. Last year we had a sort of sub-event called the Open Hardware Jam (which some of you may be a part of, I'm not sure). OpenLabs, the group at LJMU who hosted the event, did a lot of the organising for it but dont have the resources to organise it this year (and nor do we), so I thought I'd see if OSHUG or any of it's members would be interested in doing so. Last year we basically had a large room in the venue with a number of projects exhibiting, running workshops and so on throughout the two days. If anyone would be interested in organising something similar as part of OggCamp, please get in touch and we can discuss further!

OSHUG camp workshop ShrimpingIt
by Mark.itto 02 Aug '13

02 Aug '13

I'm curious about this one? what is the ShrimpingIt going to do here exactly? track a face and move the cam? are you going to use any sensor for this? or the cam feed that i'd imagine goes to a more powerful device do some image processing and then this is going to talk back to the uC ( MicroController ;P ) with some move camera this way or the other? Thanks and regards. PD. Friday drinks? whats going on? haven't seen any emails about this? plans?
