Tried with the micro. Might be the code and wiring

[aristosfabrication-blog]

Got some progress!! I made the temp/humidity sensor work and i hooked up and coded an LED to light up when it senses a temperature beyond what I specified in the code. This is a good step!

So today wasn’t as good. Ran into a little road block. But that’s what’s involved in a challenge like this. Just need to work through it! Dismantled this case to see what I could use. And tried coding a heat sensor. I think it’s a sensor issue I’m not sure. But it didn’t work at all . Well see!

All of this was what we did. The green one is supposed to be a creeper but I guess the camera didn’t catch all of it. “Bruc” is meant to say Bruce Wayne haha. But 3 sec limit for gifs.

Did some more Code!

Doing a lot of rasperry pi code today. We used the SenseHat! It has a temp, pressure, and humidity sensor. Along with an LED matrix! Had some fun. Pictures to be posted..

IN the meantime I have a sketch of my project that i made. Not the best but its a concept i borrowed from the apple charging case. 

I thought at first to use mineral wool for insulation in some way but found fiber glass! Looks amazing and might be easier to incorporate.

So we did some led work today. The light sensor if you saw is a work in progress. Leds did a simple motion as shown in the code. Pretty straight forward, nothing complicated here!

My project

I learned how to use a bit of python to make little things light up and buzz. I could use a Raspberry Pi with python code as a way to control the heating pads I will be using for the heating case which at the moment is only for iPhone.  (Has been changed from Universal..) I plan to use bluetooth or something to help control the pad and power output from the phone using an app. Gotta learn to code for apple apps...Big journey ahead!

This is the activity we were doing! We used Rasperry Pis’ and Python to make LED light up and buzzers buzz! Not as hard as I thought

Here we made a Rube Goldberg machine. Will make sure to document more of the building process next time! Then we did charts of our ideas for our own personal project and got some feedback from our peers.

All of these photos show my progress in making a circuit, first on paper with copper tape and then on a bread board with switches and batteries. Call me stupid, learned what a Resistor was haha! Had so much fun doing this activity

I got a problem...

SO. I know people have experienced this many times. When your phone battery dies sometimes quickly maybe even at the worst times! This is a risk that impacts all owners of smartphones because you never know when a situation, critical or non-critical, arises when you would need to use your phone.  I want to create a Phone case that can charge your phone but also provide insulation from the weather through a little heating system in the case. Phones will die faster in the cold and your battery percentage will drop like a falling stone. With this case, it will have bluetooth capability for the owner to control the heating level, and power output to help preserve power to the case too. Of course you can always just carry a portable charger with you to constantly have on your phone, but that will run out eventually. Wouldnt it be better to charge the case which could provide many hours of power and have a backup at the same time? I want to make this case work for android and apple through swappable plugs for both users convience as well as a charging adapter for charging the case to include apple and android plugs.

Just me Scaling it down.

We made sure to pull out the faces to give the indented Triangle aesthetic for a proper Tri-Force

We added support for the bottom. It goes through the Tri-Force so it wont be completely hollow on the inside.
