Shanime kompas
by Petr Baudis 17 Sep '10

17 Sep '10

Ahoj! Shanime kompas (ktery muzeme rozebrat) nebo buzolu (kterou mozna rozebirat nemusime) - nenasel by se nekdo, kdo ma, a byl by jej schopen dnes donest na meetup nebo alespon zitra na workshop? Potrebujeme mit kompasova data v brmbotovi. Pripadne pokud nekdo mate GPS modul, ktery magneticky kompas ma (a neni to androidi telefon), samozrejme by to bylo jeste mnohem lepsi! Vse ale velice specha. (O vikendu uz se jede naostro.) (Mame na GPS modul jednoho kandidata od Blacka, ale nejsme si jisti, zda kompas skutecne ma. Vzhledem k casu by bylo dobre mit zalozni plan.)

Brazilian Hackerspace member (pinball-hacker) visiting Prague
by Felipe Sanches 10 Sep '10

10 Sep '10

hello, My name is Felipe Sanches (my nickname is "Juca"). I am from Brazil and I am starting a hackerspace in my city, São Paulo. I am going to visit Europe next November to attend the Mozilla Drumbeat Festival in Barcelona and then I'll visit some hackerspaces during November and I would like to visit Brmlab (because a pinball geek from your hackerspace has contacted me recently :-D). I am looking for a place to stay in Prague. Is there anybody here who could offer me a couch to sleep from 27th November until 6th December ? If you want to know more about me, here are photos of a homebrew pinball machine I've been building from scratch in my home: http://www.flickr.com/photos/felipesanches And I am also a free software activist. I develop Inkscape and GNU LibreDWG. I would be happy to talk about my projects at your hackerspace if you wish. I think that it would be awesome if we could have a pinball hacking workshop during my stay! happy hacking, Felipe "Juca" Sanches

I do electronics in Prague since many years, with few cool friends. I own just about everything that is listed under "electronics" in your wish list. Including the oscilloscope and 6 quad cores, plus many Monitors and 6 projectors XL51 from Sanyo. My principal occupation the last 15 years has been to hack hardware and software from slot machines so to produce and market my own versions in Europe and Asia. I know some very talented programmers and electrotecnicians, especially in Ukraine, Romania, Slovenia and Israel. Now we are converting our business to leasing Bio medical devices and setting up a social business just like yours somewhere around Prague also very soon. I come with solid partners, like www.momentfactory.com http://nomadindustries.tv <http://nomadindustries.tv/> or www.ecohabitation.com I will be at your meeting next week. I am mostly interested in finding a few people who can handle Unity 3D game engine development. Wish you good luck in your projects, Kind regards, Sylvain Audet Service factory Prague 6

FreezeFest 17-20.9. 2010 - uděláme workshop?
by Tomáš Mudruňka 06 Sep '10

06 Sep '10

Ahoj, dovoluji si vás všechny pozvat na nezávislý festival freezefest ( http://freezefest.cz/ ) kromě hudby, audiovizuálního umění, divadla a filmů bude k vidění i spousta workshopů. Bylo by možné dokonce udělat workshopy vlastní, nebo alespoň prezentaci hackerspacu brmlab.cz. Při nejmenším tam může být příjemný hackerspace meetup a kyberia.cz session :-) vstupné je tuším dobrovolné. Pokud tedy někdo máte dobrý nápad na workshop, neváhejte ho hodit do pléna. Tuším že byly v našich řadách nějaké otázky ohledně thereminu - v okodómu bude workshop hraní na theremin. k vidění toho bude jistě mnohem víc a najdete to na stránkách. těším se na vaši účast. Já osobně tam pojedu asi o den dřív s lidma z Arachne Laboratories (xchaos a spol.) stavět fullerovu báň (aka geodetický dóm - na stránkách freezu "okodóm"). A následně tam snad budeme i provozovat nějakou reprodukovanou hudbu z naší wannabe soundsystem dodávky (dokud nás to bude bavit). Potom by mohla být naše (poměrně slušná) aparatura volná pro jedince s laptopama nebo hračkama, kteří mají co zahrát/ukázat, ale nemají vlastní bedny. Snad se vydaří počasí a budeme tam moct kempovat celou dobu. peace Harvie

Priestor pre Confidence Prague

Ahojte Prazaci, mam problem najst nejake rozumne a relativne lacne priestory pre Confidence 2.0 v Prahe 29-30.11.2010, viac info: http://201002.confidence.org.pl/. Vsetko je bud obsadene, alebo strasne drahe. Oslovil som suz.cvut.cz, pedf.cuni.cz, sic.czu.cz, mlp.cz, ... vsetko maju v dany termin obsadene. Ako lokalni obyvatelia Prahy so znalostou miestnych pomerov, viete mi doporucit nejake vhodne a cenovo prijatelne miesto na konferenciu? 5B Odhadovany pocet navstevnikov konferencie je priblizne 240 ludi, idealne, keby tam bola aj nejaka predsien na pripadne stanky (CTF). Nejaky voucher coupon pre clenov Brmlabu som Vam uz slubil... :) Podotykam, ze ide o cisto technicku (nemarketingovu, neproduktovu) geekovsku konferenciu.

Congratulations on signing your rental agreement. :) It's an exciting time. In my experience it is best to open up the workshop to everyone. This usually attracts a lot of people who may not otherwise have heard of your space, and potentially become members. At the beginning of each workshop I give an introduction, and in it I let people know that the hackerspace is funded by member dues and dontations, and welcome people to donate any amount of money if they like. So, it is good to have a donation box. It is also good to have stickers for your hackerspace to give away so that people can put them on their laptops, street lamp poles, and everywhere -- this reminds people to come back to the hackerspace. Also, if you have any T-shirts or anything else for sale, I'll point that out. Please feel free to use the workshop as a fund-raising opportunity. My time is free -- I only ask to be reimbursed for my kits used in the workshop. I'm still putting dates together for my workshops in Eastern Europe. Maybe the 15th or 16th of September would be good? Does that work for you? To do a workshop, I'll need you to get the following together: - a room big enough for everyone to solder - a demo table to show all the kits that people can make - tables and chairs for people to solder at - lighting (if the room doesn't have enough) -- several lamps different lamps make for a nice feel, too - soldering irons, each with a stand and sponge (ideally one per participant, but people can share, if necessary) - wire cutters (ideally one per participant, again, people can share, if necessary) - solder (with lead is way better!, but unleaded will work if that's all you can get) - hot glue gun, with glue sticks to fit it - AA alkaline batteries (about 40 is good) - power strips (with one outlet for each solder iron, plus lighting, plus a hot glue gun, plus daisy chaining) - AC extension cords to get power to each power strip - enough printouts of the "Soldering Is Easy" comic for all participants (translate them, if you like!): http://www.tvbgone.com/mfaire/soldercomic/soldercomic.pdf I'll bring all the kits and tools, and everything else needed. No charge for my time. I do this 'cause I love teaching people how to make things, and love helping hackerspaces. I ask to be reimbursed for kits used during the workshop, which is between US$10 and US$30 per kit (most are US$20). The workshop is best described by checking out what's been posted for previous workshops I've given: http://www.nycresistor.com/2010/01/15/mitch-altmans-electronics-workshop-12… http://robotbrighton.ning.com/events/electronics-workshop-with http://www.tog.ie/2010/03/electronics-workshop-with-mitch-altman-and-jimmie… Please feel free to copy from these for publicity purposes.

Dost bylo byrokracie, což takhle dát si trochu brm-akce?

Ahoj všichni! Předpokládám, že je vás více, koho zajímá, co se nového událo v tvorbě našeho pilotního projektu "Brmbot outdoor". (Teď má zaznít fanfára). Nejprve v krátkosti představím aktuální tým (ano, to je české slovo): Tutchek - Duchovní otec projektu, ač má málo času, jsou jeho zkušenosti a znalosti robotických soutěží hnacím motorem celého projektu. Ax(TheB) - Podvozkový majitel, konstruktér-čekatel, nalezl vhodný podvozek, objednal a plánuje za pomoci Merkurovy vytvořit základ brmbot chassis. TMA - Konzultant kritických systémů, provázel nás na cestě od vrtaček přes dětské tříkolky až k tankům, pomáhal s návrhem grafických filtrů pro detekci různých povrchů, vždy má čerstvé a užitečné nápady (s výjimkou případů, kdy překrucuje stanovy). Archimedes - Specialista grafických filtrů a zpracování signálů, díky němu bude mít brmbot outdoor funkční oko a pozná, zda je v záhonu či na cestě. joe - Programátor-lopata. Napsal prototyp software pro navigaci brmbota pomocí GPS a dat z openstreetmap.org. Když už nás znáte, pojďme se podívat, co již máme hotovo: - software, který umí navigovat v rámci zadané lokality: dostane výseč dat z OSM, zadáme mu cíl a než do něj dojede, počítá potřebný směr a vzdálenost, kam po cestách jet. Aktuální polohu bere z GPS a získaná data koreluje se známou mapou a informacemi o stavu (například fakt, že na začátku ví, že je na cestě) - http://brmlab.cz/project/brmbot_outdoor#software (je tam obrázek). - podvozek na cestě k Axovi: http://www.modelyrc.cz/index.php?p=productsMore&iProduct=23 - jestli nedostaneme nějaké body alespoň za to, jak drsně brmbot vypadá, tak porušíme pravidlo o červeném tlačítku a o zákazu poškozování ostatních :) - (částečně) vymyšlené algoritmy detekce trávy/cesty/všehomožného - obrázky najdete na http://brmlab.cz/project/brmbot_outdoor#image_processing Samozřejmě teď je potřeba naprogramovat nějaký ten jednočip na ovládání tanku, napojit jej přes RS232 na řídící počítač a začít testovat skutečnou jízdu. 18.9. v Bratislavě chceme pochopitelně vyhrát - vůbec si nevšímejte zlých jazyků, které tvrdí, že při tak krátkém času na vývoj nám brmbot vjede do prvního záhonu. Zůstaňte naladěni, více přijde. [100% brmbot, 100% outdoor, 0% microsoft, 0% byrokracie] Neptejte se, co může brmlab udělat pro vás, ptejte se, co můžete pro brmlab udělat vy! joe
