red zootubeA long time ago we repaired a rather common problem on a NAD C370 amplifier: Namely the “slow start circuit”. And the fix worked great (and it still works)! But now, over 2 years later, the amplifier is back with…
red zootubeWhen 3D-printing, you typically get visible layers. These irregularities is often desirable to hide. In this post will show you a method you can use to conceal them and finish the part. The Subject and the Plan The model used…
Ho ho ho! Is that time of the year again, and we have made a new Christmas Card. As you might see, the Card is rather influenced by our services and what we have made?previous years. Electronics The Schematic are…
A common challenge is how you can go from a free hand drawing to a more technical correct illustration. In this blog post we are going to show you a process you can use to go from a simple hand…
As written about earlier (Do It Yourself: SNMP Temperature Monitoring System) we use the SNMP monitoring nodes in several use cases here at Norwegian Creations. However the blog post does only a minimal hardware setup with a temporary connection method…
In our latest blog post we wrote about the enclosure on this “LED Matrix with Rolling Particles”. But how is it to use? And what happens on the inside? Continue to read this post to find out! What Does It…
Making a device with an LED matrix is something we have wanted to do for a while now, and now we’ve finally gotten around doing it. The way we usually do it with these kinds of quick-builds is to use…
Last year we made a Christmas card heavily influenced by our fields of expertise and what we deliver. This year was no exception! What’s new this year, among other things, is the different design, and that there exists several variants…
Previous parts in this series: Parts and Design Chassis Building In this post we’ll look at the electronics and the code and libraries used to control the vehicle. Motherboard PCB To tie the motorcontrollers, Teensy and receiver together, we chose…
A few months ago we wrote a blog post about a course in embedded systems for beginners where the goal was to make Space Invaders on an embedded system. We thought it would be fun to create a casing for…
We’d like to be notified when (physical) mail arrives. Let’s do just that! Project Goals What do we want out of this? First of all, we want to be notified when getting mail. There are many ways to do this….
To take a picture on the exact moment you want to can be a hassle. But most cameras have the possibility to use an external shutter remote. Connecting a regular button here does not help us, but by creating a…
Many pet feeders already exist, but we wanted to make one ourselves. The author of this blog post has a dog with separation anxiety which makes it difficult for him to be left alone in the house. A small machine…
About three months ago we wrote a post about a vehicle platform we’re building. Since then we’ve mostly waited for parts, primarily the aluminium plates. Now that the parts have arrived, we’ve started building the vehicle chassis. Current State The…
I recently took an online course on embedded systems to get a good introduction to microcontrollers and some practical experience working on an MCU The course is Embedded Systems – Shape the World: Microcontroller Input/output (check it out). It teaches…
