Nixie Tube Clock

I designed this nixie tube clock using IN-12A nixie tubes, and I'm really proud of it.
It took me a while to get everything just right, and I'm currently working on the case.
These tubes, which were first introduced in 1955, run on 170V and have a beautiful, vintage aesthetic.

Macropad V2

I made a macropad as a kit for my EPFL association, Robopoly.

More info here.

I also organized a workshop for 20 people to build it, which went really well and I'm very happy.

Otto Robot

These are the Otto robots.

One is equipped with a Bluetooth module to control it with the phone or computer.

I 3D printed the parts and bought the rest online.

Macropad

I made the pcb with Sebou (thx :)). I modeled, and printed the box and keycaps, painted and glued paper on it to. The case is closed with magnets.

I used :

  • hot-swap
  • raspberry pi pico
  • Kailh white switches
  • USB-c female
  • magnets

I also programmed them.

The space between the keys is very large, I would surely make a v2 with leds and different buttons and small screen for a gif. I will try to optimize space.

Heart lamps

I followed the tutorial, I still encountered some difficulties but I am happy with the result.

We can change the color of the lamp through the phone. The lamps are synchronized regardless of the distance between them. They are connected to wifi.

Drone FPV

I built an FPV drone. Thanks to Sebastian for supporting me, helping me and teaching me how to do it.

I had some problems in particular because I mounted the ESC and the FC the wrong way around and I reversed the direction of the RX cables(I had to buy another receiver). I forgot to change the motor order on betaflight as I mounted the board wrong. Also I wanted to use an ELRS receiver and transmitter but my radio was not ELRS so I had to buy an external module. But in the end, the drone is flying!!! 🥳

My drone ^o^

Total : ~1017€ 💸(help I am poor now)

→not including customs fees and repairs

What I used:

  • 2x CNHL Black Series - 1300mAh 6S 100C
  • Vifly Finder 2 - Autonomous Buzzer
  • 8mm snakeskin mesh wire 1m
  • 3x HQProp ETHIX S3 5X3.1X3 - PC - (2x CW + 2xCCW)
  • Tester BX100 de Lipo 1/8S avec alarme
  • SwiftFlying - XT30 / XT60 Smoke Stopper
  • DFR Lipo Bag

  • Neck Strap
  • Happymodel - ExpressLRS ELRS Nano TX Module ES24TX Slim Pro
  • Radiomaster -Zorro- 4in1
  • SKY04L Skyzone
  • Liftoff ( simulator)

The most expensive items are the radio and the goggles, the drone itself without counting the repairs is at a fair price.

Forest winch

Our mechanical construction project was to make a drill winch. With Lina, Orjowane and Pauline we created this:

We didn’t return the winch pink and with the engraving

See the 3D, vidéo and annexe:

(download here)

We did the majority of the work together but we divided the tasks as follows:

Pauline and Lina : 2D, calculations

Orjowane : Stop system

Eileen : 3D

Of course we checked each other's work, and I didn't do all the 3D and the others all the calculations, but it was our speciality in a way.

Iron Man Arc Reactor Clock

I followed this tutorial : https://www.thingiverse.com/thing:6063303, by jeje.

Megabot

I tried to do the Megabot in Big Hero 6

Girl with a rope

I modeled it on Blender.

I followed this tutorial : https://youtube.com/playlist?list=PLe0O-ypJqvKw6meu68TlU0_motrjcnrva, but didn’t make princess Zelda. I tried to make my own character.

I sculpted it, did the retopology, the rigging, etc…

Now available on Cults: https://cults3d.com/fr/modèle-3d/art/girl-with-a-rope

sorry for the quality

Toothless

I printed and painted it.

Botanical Kit

Botanical Kit Robopoly EPFL

Allows you to automate plant watering by checking the soil moisutre.

Robopoly is the best association at EPFL.

The photo is not very pretty and I couldn't make one with a plant and the glasses of water because I gave the kit to my motherand forgot to take photos before

Wings

One of my biggest fail but i learned a lot (2022) :/

The plans are nice and work but I was supposed to build the wings. I did but the material choices were terrible! I chose wood, which is too heavy. For the plans I used Fusion 360 and simulate them. The servomotors are placed at the bottom of each wing.

The circuit is very simple.
