Hi, I'm Jane-Maree! I'm studying IT in Dunedin New Zealand. This is a tech-blog, mainly about computer electronics, starting with the Arduino microprocessor system; adding external EEPROM; making a heads-up display etc.. Later on I hope to get onto Chip8 stuff.
My second semester is going to be about Robotics. This should be fun! I've already got a radio-controlled model car, which I'm going to hack sometime, & we get a thing called a 'buggy' (haven't seen it yet). All of this stuff builds on the Arduino stuff I did last semester - very project-oriented.
I'm also sort-of into cars, though I'm not a dedicated petrol-head; I like watching F1, interested in new car technology, especially in trying to adapt the above IT stuff to make add-ons that don't come standard (unless you've got some mega-grunty half-a-squillion-dollar whistles-&-bells neck-dislocator).. ..a la the stuff you see on Top Gear!
I also like to liven things up with a bit of humour now & then..
Hi.. I'm Jane-Maree,
& this semester we're studying Robotics & Automation. We may get to play with Lego.. but mostly we're going to be using Arduino-powered stuff.
Oh well
