La Domotica di un frontaliere ventimigliese

La Domotica di un frontaliere ventimigliese https://ift.tt/DGzglb1 Fonte: Flavio Palermo Da parecchi anni faccio esperienze con IoT. L'Internet of Things (IoT) è una rete di oggetti e dispositivi connessi (detti “cose”), dotati di sensori (e altre tecnologie), che consentono loro di trasmettere e ricevere dati, da e verso altre cose e sistemi. Oggi l'IoT è ampiamente utilizzato in ambito industriale (IIoT) ed è sinonimo di Industry 4.0. L'impianto elettrico elettronico del mio appartamento è gestito appunto dall'IoT con un Arduino MEGA nel quadro elettrico ed Home Assistant. Home Assistant, software open-source in grado di controllare tutti i dispositivi Smart all'interno di un'abitazione, dalle luci, ai condizionatori, alle automazioni per le tapparelle. Installato su un Raspberry 4 pi 8Gb ssd 250Gb. Al di là dei tecnicismi, Raspberry Pi può essere considerato un “computer in miniatura”, un intero ecosistema hardware raccolto in un’unica board. Nasce in Inghilterra per favorire la diffusione della programmazione e della cultura informatica, ma il suo incredibile successo ne ha svelato miriadi di altri utilizzi. Considerando la motivazione primaria, appare assolutamente adeguato il motto che campeggia sulla homepage del progetto: “Our mission is to put the power of computing and digital making into the hands of people all over the world” (“La nostra missione consiste nel mettere il potere della programmazione e della creazione digitale nelle mani di persone di ogni parte del mondo”). Questa frase è una sintesi perfetta per raccontare uno strumento che ha favorito il fiorire della creatività nel mondo senza limitazioni politiche, sociali o economiche: strada poi percorsa da BBC micro:bit, altro prodotto inglese. L'impianto elettrico elettronico del mio appartamento è gestito appunto dall'IoT con un Arduino MEGA nel quadro elettrico ed Home Assistant". Arduino è una piattaforma hardware composta da una serie di schede elettroniche dotate di un microcontrollore. È stata ideata e sviluppata nel 2005 da alcuni membri dell'Interaction Design Institute di Ivrea come strumento per la prototipazione rapida e per scopi hobbistici, didattici e professionali. Poi ad un certo punto ho spento tutto e ti spiego il perché. Agosto 2022: acquisto un misuratore di energia che installo nel quadro elettrico. Ed effettivamente mi rendo conto che in mia assenza avevo un consumo di ben 300Watt a vuoto e una bolletta bimestrale di 275 euri. Modem Nas, videosorveglianza, allarme, tutti i dispositivi IoT  ecc. Ecc. Accesi che magari mi collegavo 10 minuti al giorno da Monaco. Quindi ho deciso di spegnere tutto per fare una prova abbassando il consumo da 300W a 5W. Bolletta? Da 275 a 55 euro 1/5. Be', visti i risultati, è da agosto 2022 che quando esco di casa si spegne in automatico. Dovrei brevettare il progetto: ECOMOTICA... Flavio Palermo, 31 luglio 2024 Fonte: Flavio Palermo Non sono in grado di affermare se il termine "Domotica" si applichi al meglio alle situazioni descritte qui da Flavio Palermo, ma all'epoca dei suoi primi esperimenti telematici - che circa trent'anni fa cercò di farmi capire la parola era molto diffusa (e densa di aspettative che non so in realtà quanto si siano verificate) - in circoscritti ambiti del mio lavoro, cos�� che mi piace usarla, al confine tra una citazione e l'autoironia.

Rapidly create your own capacitive multi-touch sensors with this kit

You likely use touchscreens every day when interacting with your phone — perhaps even to read this article — but prototyping your own capacitive matrix is unfortunately out of reach for most makers and electronics novices. As seen here, researchers have devised a new technique that will allow for easier prototyping of this type of interface, which can function on both flat and curved surfaces, over a variety of materials.

To accomplish this, the team developed an Arduino library, as well as one for Processing, and used OpenCV to track multiple finger positions. Interactions have been tested with an Uno, Mega and LilyPad, and would presumably work with almost any other Arduino board as needed!

We introduce Multi-Touch Kit, a low-cost do­ it-yourself technique to enable interaction designers, makers, and electronics novices alike to rapidly create and experiment with high-resolution multi-touch sensors of custom sizes, ge­ ometries, and materials. 

In contrast to existing solutions, the Multi-Touch Kit is the first technique that works with a commodity microcontroller (our implementation uses a standard Arduino) and does not require any specialized hardware. As a technical enabler, we contribute a modified multi-touch sensing scheme that lever­ ages the human body as a transmission channel of MHz range signals through a capacitive near-field coupling mechanism. This leads to a clean signal that can be readily processed with the Arduino’s built-in analog-to-digital converter, resulting in a sensing accuracy comparable to industrial multi-touch con­ trollers. Only a standard multiplexer and resistors are required alongside the Arduino to drive and read out a touch sensor matrix. 

The technique is versatile and compatible with many types of multi-touch sensor matrices, including flexible sensor films on paper or PET, sensors on textiles, and sensors on 3D printed objects. Furthermore, the technique is compatible with sensors of various scale, curvature, and electrode materials (silver, copper, conductive yarn) fabricated using conductive printing, hand-drawing with a conductive pen, cutting, or stitching.

Machine for Autonomous Growth and Moisture

Gitlab: https://gitlab.doc.gold.ac.uk/jdeve003/final-project-2020 Video documentation: https://vimeo.com/431051447 Livestream: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=kL2voDahzyk

Adapted Project

Project description

“Machine for Autonomous Growth and Moisture” is a sculpture, a speculative “body” that materially, sensorially and conceptually suggests what kind of assemblages of life might exist in a world defined by hybridity and interconnectedness. It is situated in an imaginary, post-apocalyptic and possibly post-human future in which digital code meets biological hardware and spawning sprouts meet electrical waste. The sculpture is a landscape of both independent objects as well as a connected system, the spraying influences the sprouts, the sprouts influence the spraying and the audio gives voice to the sprouts, signalling their fluctuating mood to the surroundings.

The project gestures towards a post-capitalocene planet, a term suggested by environmental historian Jason Moore as a subversion of the term “anthropocene” which puts the focus on capitalism as a system rather than individual human influence on the environment. “Capitalism made this mess, and this mess will ruin capitalism” (Simon, 2019). In this new reality the sculpture forms a self-generating system that plays with the aesthetic and possibilities of survivalist methods of open source autonomy and DIY, makeshift building structures. It is functional, but it is also semiotic. It contemplates what space the digital can inherit in these forms of assemblages, as the mega tech corporations have disappeared the code will live on - but in what form and through what hardware? What are the forms of digital survivalism?

A livestream of the project was streaming for the duration of 3 hours on the 18th of July 2020. Although a stream was not originally a planned part of the project, it was an adaptation that gave the project a digital space and the possibility for an audience to follow the life of the sculpture for a longer amount of time, a sort of “slow” way to experience an art piece where one can return many times to a piece without the restraints of the gallery space. This was inspired by projects such as Brent Watanabe’s “San Andreas Streaming Deer Cam” (Watanabe 2016) in which a stream is set up of a modified deer in the game GTA V, following the deers shenanigans through the fictional city of San Andreas. Similar to this is also the tv-program “Den stora älgvandringen” (The Great Moose Walk) streamed on Swedish public television, a four week livestreamed program documenting the yearly migration of moose (SVT, 2020). These types of “slow-tv” streams often have a hypnotic quality to them, making the viewer return several times to see what has changed since last, the stream creating a peep hole into a different world. 

In a gallery space, the piece would act as part sculpture, part continuous and durational performance piece, evolving and changing throughout the exhibition period. Ideally it would be installed in a quiet space to give room for the sonic scape created by the audio and the sound of the spray bottles, and to leave space and a calm atmosphere for the audience to watch the piece for longer periods of time. The lighting of the piece would come from LED growth lights, which give a soft purple glow, as well as discreet spotlight directed towards the installation to give it an evenly distributed light without dark shadows. As the piece aims to be as self-sufficient as possible it would not be relying too much on natural lighting, the lights would instead be included in the installation as a part of the system of the machine. The livestreaming element would not necessarily be included in the piece’s gallery-version, the livestream is rather a moment in itself, separate from the gallery exhibition. 

Audience engagement

I see this piece as an active process, and it is a process I am hoping the audience wants to be involved with. As it is durational, it’s main “function” - the spraying bottles - are not continuous, but dependent on the moisture levels of its biological component. Thus, the audience will all experience different parts of the piece depending on what stage of the process the machine is in during that moment. It is my hope this would create a curiosity to experience and understand the processes of the piece and to reflect on the system that makes the installation as a whole - how it is put together, and the implications of what the collaboration between its components might mean. The fact that it is durational turns it into something I hope members of the audience will return to, and that each encounter with the work will be a new experience. 

A lot of my work moves in the boundaries of what might arise as technological components and biology converges, and it is my intent that the audience will get a sense of the cooperation and symbiosis I imagine in the piece, which will help to expand the way we imagine the unknown aspects of the intimidating future.

The piece is not interactive in the way we normally talk about interactivity in computational arts, and it is something I reflected on throughout the process of making this work. Interactivity can be a powerful tool, but with this project I wanted to point attention to interactions that are devoid of human contact and influence. The piece hints to human intervention, we often perceive the concept of “machines” as human-made, but it has been assembled to facilitate a process that focuses on communication between components often seen as distant from each other - and to pay attention to the multiplicity of realities and worlds that might / might not exist. 

Although there is no direct human interaction with the sculpture, it facilitates sensory experiences. The spraying of the water from the bottles makes the floor damp, and one can feel the thin mist if standing close to the piece. The wheatgrass growing in the hanging baskets give of a slight smell, and there’s a humming coming from the power supply. As the spraying is dictated by the moisture in the grass, there is an element of unpredictability when getting close to the piece, the audio coming from the small speaker indicates the state of the growing wheatgrass sprouts, but only one who is thoroughly dedicated to listening and experiencing the machine would be able to predict the sprays. Maybe this can contribute to a speculation regarding who or what might assemble such a machine, in the imagined future suggested. 

Creative process

The idea for this work largely stemmed from the research that came from writing my dissertation, which focuses on practices of survivalism and DIY self sufficiency as well as autonomous zones. I believe there is a radical potential in imagining “the end of the world”, to be bold in our imaginations of reorganisation and collectivity. In this process I have been looking into the work of the duo Queer Nature, an educational and social sculpture project that focuses on place-based skills with awareness of post-industrial, globalized and ecocidal contexts (Queer Nature, 2020). Their work has influenced the way I think about my own practice and the context I want to situate my artworks - as parts of an effort to think about a sustainable future by not being afraid of imagining the collapse of our current reality. 

This is echoed in the writing of Alexis Pauline Gumbs and her book “M Archive: After the End of the World”. It documents the afterlife of the human-created climate crisis at a point where Earth has gone through several stages of freezing, flooding, torching heat and sulfuric contamination. It is narrated in second person by someone who has survived. Through the text she takes on antiblackness, environmental crisis and capitalism and explores how Black feminist theory is already after the end of the world ( for many the collapse has already happened.) (Gumbs, 2018).

Aesthetically I’ve been inspired by the work of Phoebe Washburn who’s dubbed her installations “spontaneous architecture” and the haphazard, precarious appeal in her installations is something I wanted to mirror in the process of building my structure. Her installation “It makes for my Billionaire Status” (Washburn, 2005) inspired the assembly and aesthetics of my own work as I think it combines a makeshift process with biological elements in an effective way. Additionally I’ve also been looking at the structures built in the ZAD (Zone to Defend), an autonomous zone in France. The buildings in the area serve many purposes, and are often both living quarters as well as watchtowers in preparation of eviction by police. Various amenities and agricultural installations are built to sustain their continuous occupation of the land - a form of functionality and anti-capitalist resistance that informs a beautiful sculpturality.

To execute the functionality of the project I researched different platforms, Arduino is something I have experience of working with before, and it is an effective tool for the movement of the servos and the moisture sensor I wanted to use for the project. I looked into a few different ways of making a moisture sensor, and first tried to buy a ready made sensor. It turned out to give quite inaccurate readings and was not very reliable. So instead, I researched how to make my own sensor and eventually ended up using a tutorial from Instructables.com. It uses two nails as conductors, one which is connected to Analog Pin 0 on the Arduino Uno, and one which is connected to 5V. Through this, it calculates the resistance in between the two probes. This turned to give a much more accurate reading. (Parth2k, no date).

I also looked into using Raspberry Pi as a platform for running the project as a whole. My goal was to make the sculpture run as independently as possible, and to require little to no set up. Unfortunately, due to the unforeseen event of campus closing, using Raspberry Pi was not something I had the means to do after having traveled back home as many components were missing for me to be able to do the set up correctly.

In terms of the audio I mainly researched two platforms, Openframeworks and Max MSP. I wanted to set up communication from the Arduino to the platform of choice, and use the serial input from the moisture sensor to control the audio output. I have previous experience of setting up Arduino with Openframeworks by using ofSerial and ofArduino, but found it to not be very user friendly when it came to audio. It does have some audio libraries such as ofx Maximillian, but Max MSP felt like a better choice for me, as I through my research found it also can read serial communication from the Arduino. To set up this communication I looked mainly at the tutorial “Serial Arduino Live Data” (Programming for People, 2016). It uses an oscillator to give the sensor its audio output. I contemplated using samples for the audio instead of the oscillator, the sonic scape of the installation had to reflect the narrative I imagined. In the end, I decided that I found the audio from the oscillator to work well with the aesthetic of the piece as well with what I wanted to communicate, as it is a clear sound that quickly changes with the sensor, and gives it a simple, monotone digital feel, like if it is a calculating computer. The audio in the installation is connected through an old stripped down speaker which doesn’t allow for a very loud volume, something that requires the audience to move closer to the piece to get a clear sense of the sound.

(Above are screenshots of the code from the Arduino, and from my Max MSP patch)

The closure of campus made me have to adapt the project to my new situation. I was able to travel back home to my parents, and am lucky that they have tools and space that made me able to build something quite close to what I imagine the physical installation to be. I used all scrap material for the build and an old bedside table for the base - I wanted the look and feel of the piece to be DIY, as it is quite literally DIY, but also because this is the theme I am currently working with and it was thus important that this was reflected in the way it was built. The piece has small shelves cut out from MDF which have been spray painted in a pale olive green for the spray bottles to stand on. At the very top a seashell is placed on a shelf. Seashells are often used as symbols for protection, life and fertility and are acting as an amulet of sorts, protecting the sculpture. The installation is an assemblage of items and ornaments, each chosen to create a connection to the narrative created for the work. On one of the arms holding up the hanging basket is an orange insulated water bottle, a water supply for the spray bottles as well as a common tool used when camping or hiking. 

The main re-planning done for the project has been through adapting to the loss of the materials and tools available through the university. I do feel like the code I’ve created for the installation is what I had in mind, but the assembly of the different technological components are less sophisticated than what I imagined. For example, the servos were originally planned to be powered through batteries, in order to make the installation less dependent on electrical outlets. Max MSP is running through my laptop in the installation, which is also something I had to adapt to as it was originally planned to be run through Raspberry Pi. In general I feel as if I've managed to execute the main functionality I originally planned for the piece, but the solutions for the set up have had to become less self-contained than what I was hoping to make, as well as less practical. This is something I am hoping to continue to work on, as I see the installation to work as a self contained system and it would be great to incorporate things that could facilitate this more, such as solar power driven batteries and an automated water supply for the bottles. 

Final iteration

This project is a sculpture with spray bottles attached to servos, the servos are connected to a soil moisture sensor run through Arduino uno. The servos are told to spray everytime time the moisture level of the wheatgrass growing in the installation reaches under a threshold set out in the code of the Arduino, and to keep spraying until the moisture level is above this threshold. The moisture sensor is made of two nails attached to the Arduino through wires, measuring the resistance in between the two nails. The sprouting process of the wheatgrass was initiated 8-9 days before the planned set up of the piece. The moisture sensor is also connected to Max MSP that reworks the signal from the sensor into audio, which is put through a small speaker at the top of the sculpture. Finally, the building of the piece was done through collected scrap material and an old bedside table. It is done in a makeshift way, gesturing to artists such as Phoebe Washburn, and the architecture of the ZAD.

This massive five-axis CNC machine is 3D-printable

CNC (Computer Numerical Control) mills, routers, and lathes are indispensable manufacturing tools. If you need a part that adheres to tight tolerances, you turn to a CNC machine. Industrial CNC equipment is usually large, heavy, and very expensive. But small models exist for light-duty hobby jobs. This DIY device designed by Brian Brocken stands out because it is huge, has five axes, and is 3D-printable.

The most basic CNC mills and routers have three axes, so they move in the X, Y, and Z directions. But additional axes help a machine perform more complex operations. A fourth axis most often rotates the work piece, while a fifth axis tilts the spindle that rotates the end mill. It is rare to see a DIY CNC machine with five axes, but Brocken pulled it off with this project that has a massive work area of one square meter.

Brocken performed all the design work within Autodesk Fusion 360. The frame of the machine is aluminum tubing and 3D-printed parts. An Arduino Mega board controls the stepper motors through a RAMPS 1.4 board. It accepts standard G-code, so Brocken can create toolpaths in Fusion 360 or other CAM (Computer-Aided Manufacturing) software. The frame lacks rigidity and there is no way it could handle milling aluminum or even wood. But it can mill foam, which is the intended purpose. It can also perform 3D printing and laser cutting. Brocken isn’t quite finished building his CNC machine, but it is already semi-operational.

KAUDA is a low-cost, highly-efficient robotic arm

Would you like your own industrial robot arm, but don’t have tens of thousands of dollars to spend? You could instead build Giovanni Lerda’s KAUDA, a five-axis device that uses under 800g of PLA, an Arduino Mega, and other off-the-shelf parts.

KAUDA utilizes servos to actuate the two wrist joints, along with a NEMA 17 motor for the elbow. A single stepper rotates the base in the horizontal direction, while dual steppers provide lifting force at this joint.

The gripper is a three-fingered linkage assembly, controlled by a small DC motor. The arm’s construction is outlined on its official website, and instructions can be found in Lerda’s write-up here. As seen in the video below, KAUDA looks great and appears to work quite well!
