<p><strong>[PT]</strong>Passadas 10 horas de puro hacking e muita cerveja, o Arduino Hack Day chegava ao fim, todos os participantes muito satisfeitos com a experiência. O altlab conseguiu concretizar o principal objectivo desta iniciativa: juntar pessoas interessadas em partilhar conhecimentos sobre o Arduino, ajudar quem nunca tinha desenvolvido nada com a plataforma e conquistar novos interessados em pertencer a este colectivo fantástico!<br />
<strong>[EN]</strong>After 10 hours of pure hacking and lots of beer, the Arduino Hack Day came to an end, and everyone left with a smile on their faces. We were able to attain the main goals for this event: gather people interested in sharing knowledge about the Arduino, help those who had never used the platform, and have several new members join our beloved collective.</p>

<p><object width="400" height="320"><param name="allowfullscreen" value="true" /><param name="allowscriptaccess" value="always" /><param name="movie" value="http://vimeo.com/moogaloop.swf?clip_id=12644313&amp;server=vimeo.com&amp;show_title=1&amp;show_byline=1&amp;show_portrait=0&amp;color=ffffff&amp;fullscreen=1" /><embed src="http://vimeo.com/moogaloop.swf?clip_id=12644313&amp;server=vimeo.com&amp;show_title=1&amp;show_byline=1&amp;show_portrait=0&amp;color=ffffff&amp;fullscreen=1" type="application/x-shockwave-flash" allowfullscreen="true" allowscriptaccess="always" width="400" height="320"></embed></object></p>
<p><a href="http://joel.belouet.free.fr/" target="_blank">Joel Belouet</a> has been working on an art piece involving microorganisms and needed a support structure for his microscope camera. It turns out the <a href="http://www.makerbot.com/" target="_blank">MakerBot</a> sitting on our table was the solution.</p>
<p>At first Joel attached the camera to the z axis and the slide rested on the build platform, but it soon became clear that it would be much better to have the sample remain still and the camera move instead. Inverting the positions meant attaching the slide to the bottom of the z axis platform in order to prevent the camera lens from bumping against it. This setup also allowed him to use the <a href="http://www.thingiverse.com/thing:975" target="_blank">z crank</a> as a focus mechanism.<span id="more-766"></span></p>
<p><a href="http://altlab.org/wp-content/uploads/2010/06/makerbotMicroscope.jpg"><img src="http://altlab.org/wp-content/uploads/2010/06/makerbotMicroscope.jpg" alt="" title="makerbot microscope" width="400" height="533" class="alignnone size-full wp-image-838" /></a></p>
<p>So we were happy with the physical setup which, in conjunction with <a href="http://replicat.org/" target="_blank">ReplicatorG&#8217;s</a> control panel, proved very useful for finding and tracking microorganisms within the sample.</p>
<p>But we also wanted to try an automated scan.</p>
<p>So the next step was to generate a path for the camera. We made a bunch of experiments with MakerBot&#8217;s <a href="http://wiki.makerbot.com/frostruder-mk2-usage" target="_blank">Frostruder Tool Sweet</a>, but eventually an stl + <a href="http://reprap.org/wiki/Skeinforge" target="_blank">skeinforge</a>, with a feedrate of 12 mm/m, turned out to be the best solution.</p>
<p>Finally, the microscope camera (which is a cheap webcam with a macro lens that Joel flipped upside down) was connected to his <a href="http://processing.org/" target="_blank">Processing</a> script that records both video and stills from the incoming video feed.</p>
<p><object width="400" height="300"><param name="allowfullscreen" value="true" /><param name="allowscriptaccess" value="always" /><param name="movie" value="http://vimeo.com/moogaloop.swf?clip_id=12630684&amp;server=vimeo.com&amp;show_title=1&amp;show_byline=1&amp;show_portrait=0&amp;color=ffffff&amp;fullscreen=1" /><embed src="http://vimeo.com/moogaloop.swf?clip_id=12630684&amp;server=vimeo.com&amp;show_title=1&amp;show_byline=1&amp;show_portrait=0&amp;color=ffffff&amp;fullscreen=1" type="application/x-shockwave-flash" allowfullscreen="true" allowscriptaccess="always" width="400" height="300"></embed></object><br />
<em>Video of fist automated scan (sample is moss from a well).</em></p>
<p>Joel will continue to work on this as part of his art project, but this setup seems to be useful for a few other things:<br />
- Record microscopic images of each and every area of a sample: just feed the makerbot a grid-like design, set the processing script to take a photo of each quadrant, go enjoy the <a href="http://www.flickr.com/photos/34906770@N07/4701251724/in/set-72157623408197899/" target="_blank">great outdoors</a>, and when you return to the lab you&#8217;ll have all the images waiting for you on your hard drive.<br />
- Automatically capture images of live bacteria: we&#8217;ll try to do this by having the processing script track certain types of motion and capture stills when it&#8217;s detected.<br />
- Some dancers here at the AZ residency also became very interested in using it as live video feed for performance.</p>
<p>Well, that&#8217;s it for now. We&#8217;re going to get more coffee and think of a way to make an action movie starring nematodes and tardigrades :)</p>

<p>(inscrições abertas :: número limitado de vagas)</p>
<p>:::::::::::</p>
<p>A impressão 3D é uma forma original de impressão, no âmbito da tecnologia de prototipagem, em que um objecto tridimensional é criado por uma máquina a partir da acumulação de camadas sucessivas de um dado material (<a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/3D_printing" target="_blank">Wikipedia</a>).</p>
<p><strong>O Workshop</strong></p>
<p>O objectivo do workshop é a construção e utilização de uma impressora 3D open source (modelo <a href="http://www.makerbot.com/" target="_blank">MakerBot</a>). Os participantes irão construir a máquina de raiz: desde a montagem das componentes electrónicas e extrusor, passando pela mecânica, até à junção de todas as peças. Irão ainda adquirir e aperfeiçoar aptidões e técnicas nas área de fabrico de electrónica, mecânica, modelação 3D, fabricação digital e resolução de problemas com impressoras 3D. O workshop será ainda um lugar privilegiado para adquirir conhecimentos sobre os mais diversos tópicos, como teoria da electrónica, design de firmware, engenharia mecânica, protocolos de série, fabricação digital e desenho 3D.</p>
<p>A impressora 3D construída durante o workshop ficará posteriormente disponível para os membros do altLab (qualquer interessado se pode inscrever no altLab se assim o desejar). Os participantes que desejem construir a sua própria máquina, e levá-la para casa, terão que adquirir o respectivo kit open source no site da <a href="http://www.makerbot.com/" target="_blank">MakerBot</a>.</p>
<p><strong>Zach Hoeken</strong></p>
<p>Zach Hoeken likes to dream big, fail big, and win big. His true passion in life is acting as a catalyst and helping others do amazing things. Whether it is creating open source micro controllers (sanguino.cc), robot controller software (replicat.org), object sharing websites (thingiverse.com), self replicating 3D printers (reprap.org), or hacker collectives (nycresistor.com) there is one central purpose: to help other people help themselves create an awesome world to live in. He hopes that someday we can create a world that surpasses even the wildest futures portrayed in science fiction. He thinks the universe is and will continue to be completely rad. Do you want to help?</p>
