Thinkulator form example that shows how you can have complex and multi-value fields to build order forms with calculations, without programming.
End-to-End encryption, spreadsheet style calculations, AND multi-row functionality? All without programming.
Thinkulator Forms is easier to use and provides more capability than the rest.
Working on a new tool, an End-to-End encrypted survey tool.
Truly secure data collection, only someone with the key can view the data people submit.
I will be using it for my own needs, but if you're interested in getting in on the alpha testing, message me.
The Gloink rolls! All will be Gloink!
Custom battery pack for the Gloink, and make-do wiring, to do some testing and initial measurements.
Thinkulator Dynamic let you embed intelligence directly into your products. Solve integration issues without PLC programming or embedded systems code.
Looking to enable AI based configuration of smart devices and sensors?
AI agents can generate programs, but often fail when working in the embedded space. Our technology enables LLM created logic, to be deployed to edge devices, in realtime, by customers.
Custom configurations in seconds.
In a saturated space, how can your products stand out?
Dynamic enables your product to run logic defined by the end-user, using a familiar language. This often eliminates the need for external PLCs, giving your customers unprecedented control and you a competitive edge.
Want to see how Dynamic makes configuring devices with custom logic, super easy?
This video is captured from our upcoming digital twin based training system, and uses an emulated ARM Thumb micro internally.
It runs the same on real hardware, only faster :)
And I'd be a little ashamed to show you the back side of the tombstone that esp32 board is attached to.
Sigh, yea it does. This was just to get the i2c and serial connections up, so I could bootstrap the communications code.
Breadboard with an STM32 blue pill, and an ESP32-Wroom de board. There is a mess of wires, a logic analyzer, and other devices in frame.
The mess before the PCB gets spun is always the worst.
Had a great mentorship discussion w/ a former coworker, who does startup guidance.
We really honed in on how my messaging needs to change, and what the real problems my tools are targeting.
That said: My brain never stops thinking about improvements and next steps, and I still had a few networking meetings.
I've been taking the week off for some family time. We did some axe throwing, and skill building.
It's amazing how much overlap there is between helping mentor people professionally and teaching your kids life skills.
This one was especially about the importance of celebrating our successes.
This past week was spent on some backend business tasks. Presentations, technical documentation, architecture overviews, and a few quarterly business reviews.
Plus a side-quest to keep my parts bins organized while being transported.
It was nice to reflect on the progress I've made.
Try, test, change, and play, quickly and easily.
Dynamic RC uses short formulas to map gamepad buttons to control servos, relays and lights in your Remote Control projects.
Want to change something? They're working in less than a second, no reboots.
Yes! Pretty much any gamepad that uses bluetooth should work.
We made the mock UI for configuring Dynamic RC!
It shows how you map buttons to channels, this one is using our method to make spreadsheet-style formulas that run on-device.
Any ideas for other ways to map buttons to servos, motors, relays we could try out?
Mechanical design in-progress for Dynamic RC. 10 channels, two inputs, and programmable button mappings for your Bluetooth gamepad.
Our goal is to make including servos, relays and lights, SUPER easy. We built tools that make it quick and easy to configure, with lots of flexibility.
Testing the CNC controls for the first time. Starting with the pulse generator, axis selection and homing.
Each button press or dial change sends Gcode to the CNC controller.
I've made a large amount of progress, but formally writing up my successes? That feels weird.
Writing updates is one of the least-fun parts of trying to launch something.
A shop-built CNC control panel, with a dial and display on the far left, to the right is two panels of 3x5 buttons with custom labels. You can see letters signifying axis on some, and length increment on others. Further right from this is an abort button and am estop switch.
I love the control panel I made for my DIY CNC. Each cherry MX switch sends the Gcode directly into the CNC controller, and shows status and toggles.
It was really fun to design and build this configurable panel setup, based around Eurorack rails.
The Gloink build progresses! I have some testing and experiments to run on controlling the reaction wheel. This is a quick testbed for that!
Soon, all will be Gloink!
Story time!
One of my favorite activities when in a new country, is learning little phrases in the local language. I always start with "please", and "thank you".
That smile you get from someone, when you show you have put in the effort.
Especially, as someone from the USA.
Whoooo, last week was quite the week. Wasn't it?
Today was a coaching and collaboration day:
* Intro call w/ a local entrepreneurship non-profit.
* A peer discussion with another startup founder in manufacturing tech - through a good friend.
Good things to think about. Plus, it's fun to practice the pitch and hear others give theirs!
I follow this approach. Code should be relatively self-documenting on what it does.
Why it does it that way, is what comments and commit log messages are for.
I will get my flame-suit ready for this one. <3
Spent a chunk of today doing accounting and other such stuff, but also got our main website up and running finally.
It's short and simple on purpose. But I would love feedback from anyone who has it!
Explanations for the tech itself are incoming, but I wanted to get something up to start with.
That's always a tough one for me too, especially when I have not been able to find the spoons to work on something I used to enjoy.
At least for me, it's because I am either overwhelmed with life stuff, or I'm at a frustrating part of the build.
