I autorimessa sopra albero sono ottimi verso numerosi motivi. Un autorimessa sopra albero prefabbricato e una soluto tirocinio, economica e adatto a parecchi problemi. Appunto in aggiunta a prendere possesso un box garage con legna alla maniera di sede automobile, attraverso parcheggiarla in tutta certezza, il autorimessa con bastone si prestera alla maniera di fattore decorativo nel nostro brolo oppure aia e sara quandanche un ricovero immancabile e utile verso esercitare i nostri hobbies se no conservare oggetti e attrezzi. In breve acquisire un autorimessa sopra bastone e cautelarsi una solida e sicura conformazione milleusi, resistente agli incendi e i quali opportunamente tutelato dall'umidita restera saldo attraverso moltissimi etа donando eroismo alla vostra proprieta. Comporre un garage sopra legna prefabbricato e molto evidente perche tutti i pezzi sono pronti con modo da incunearsi fermamente l'uno all'altro, cosi i quali non avrete bisogno di particolari attrezzi se no tra alquanto lavoro. Solitamente tutti temono le quali un garage durante bastone prefabbricato proveniente da buona qualita sia carissimo. Sembra scarso possibile le quali i prezzi dei autorimessa sopra bastone possano rimanere bassi a fronte che tanti vantaggi e tra garanzie che qualita, viceversa la verita e le quali possiamo comperare un garage sopra bastone prefabbricato a scarso somma e che buona qualita. I prezzi partono da cifre inferiori ai mille euro e salgono con fondamento alla lunghezza e ai requisiti richiesti, ma si puo ribattere le quali che principio, si puo acquisire un buon garage sopra albero a un valore scarso ai mille euro! Nй e un importo per niente eccelso comparato per mezzo di il eroismo del bene le quali andiamo ad divenire titolare e per mezzo di la certezza il quale ci regalera permettondoci tra esimersi da danni alla nostra autoveicolo ovvero ad oggetti il quale vogliamo conservare. Cos'altro integrare? I quali vi colf per risarcire autovettura oppure la vostra atto a motivo di furti e intemperie, secondo restaurare mobili o dipingere, o in che modo hangar secondo a lei attrezzi, un autorimessa sopra legno e sempre una buona scelta. Probabile per salire, saldo, multiuso, ed vantaggioso, nй soletto secondo il prezzo soggetto riguardo all'utilita invece per i oro i quali ci fara risparmiare sopra altre averi, il tempo sudato e la tranquillita di far sapere la nostra automezzo al certo presso animali, ladri, vandali o intemperie.

Vehicle-related open hardware projects, for both manned and unmanned vehicles.

Open OBDII[edit]

Link to source and schematics Open source hardware and software implementing OBDII tester for cars. Two versions one using a PIC microcontroller and one using an AVR microcontroller.

Mowbot[edit]

an open project to build Mowbot, a robot lawnmower. http://mowbot.ro.nu/

helicopter[edit]

See multi-rotor.

cycle electronics[edit]

I have created a web site where I am going to post my projects, mostly electronic but also some software. So, to start, if anyone like to enhance tail light on his motorcycle - welcome to BoldLine.org.

P.S. I don't know if you guys have a some kind of formatting standard here. So, if I posted this incorrectly could someone correct me, please?

Welcome. --DavidCary 14:38, 23 July 2007 (PDT)

small rocket computer[edit]

What kind of electronics are small enough to fit into a small hobby model rocket?

See rocket computer.

RCAP: R/C Auto Pilot: Remote Control Auto Pilot[edit]

"The RCAP2 is a Remote Control AutoPilot] for model airplanes, cars and boats. The autopilot function can be switched off or on during flight with the flick of a switch." Uses PIC16F876A to:

  • read (servo) commands from the RC server
  • read (RS-232) GPS location from a NMEA capable GPS (with programmable goto/waypoints functions)
  • drive (servo) commands to the rudder.

RCAP Documentation at Wikibooks , and RCAP PCB layout at Sourceforge .


bicycle computer[edit]

What sort of electronics are useful mounted to a bicycle? Does it make any sense to mount the display on the bicycle helmet rather than on the handlebars?

  • speed (miles, kilometers, and wheel RPM), trip distance covered, trip time, total distance (odometer), elapsed time and calories burned.
  • pedal rpm == pedals per minute
  • beep every 10 minutes to remind me to get a drink of water
  • torque, force, power, etc.
  • The CycleRecorder Project: "open source hardware and software project started by ... Robert Fitzsimons. The main goal of the project is to develop a modular and portable platform suitable for use with a bicycle, which can be used to record various aspects of a cyclists journey." ... used the open source tools gschem and pcb ... (also links to several similar projects)
  • A data logging tool for the bicycle by Wolfgang Strobl 1998: a PIC processor that interfaces between a reed contact (wheel revolution sensor) and a standard serial interface (to a handheld computer or PDA). mentions connector problems -- have USB connectors solved this problem?
  • BEHEMOTH (Big Electronic Human-Energized Machine... Only Too Heavy).
  • Winnebiko II: primary design objective -- being able to type while riding a bike

UUV[edit]

The people at OpenROV are working on open source underwater robots for exploration, education, and adventure.

Several people at DIY drones and elsewhere are working on a UUV: unmanned underwater vehicle. See ArduRov and [1] and [2] and [3] and [4].


  • "OpenProp is free software for the design and analysis of marine propellers and horizontal-axis turbines."

robot clubs[edit]

FIXME: should Tulsa robotics clubs go here, or at Tulsa electronics club#Tulsa robotics groups?

Wanky The Safety Cat[edit]

Murilee Martin. "If You Can't Buy It, Build It: Wanky The Safety Cat".[5]

has got a bit of attention:

"Any Thoughts on Wanky the Safety Cat?".[6]

"Jalopnik’s DIY attempt at nine-lives of road safety". [7]

"You've seen Winky/Wanky the safety cat... ...now here's my "Dr Braker - Lazer Ed". [8]

unicycle-related[edit]


unsorted[edit]

(FIXME: clearly separate open-source designs for entire vehicles, including moving parts -- cars, skateboards, quadcopters, etc. -- from vehicle-related projects that have no moving parts in themselves -- miles-per-gallon meters and other measurement and datalogger tools, engine management systems, eye-catching turn signals and wheel-POV displays, etc.)
