Extracting a 3D Model from drawings
Perspective techniques to extract a 3D model from a painting, nice! – Constructing 3D models of buildings is all about extracting the geometry from images using photogrammetric techniques. As such, although it goes against basic geometric principles it also lends itself to historic reconstruction via referenced hand drawn images. Over eight years ago we used […]

Dynamic Abstraction: computer generated art with Actionscript
Understatement: Joshua Davis creates some really incredible artwork in Flash. By combining vector primitives, a carefully chosen color pallete, some deterministic rules, and pinch of random(), the images are generated in Actionscript at runtime. Each time the software is executed, a unique image is created, though it maintains the same guiding principles of other iterations […]
HOW TO – Make a one transistor super-regenerative FM receiver
Good project made with RadiShack parts… This radio is sensitive enough to tune 20 stations across the FM band, some with volume high enough to drive a small PM speaker. The ability to tune 88.9 MHz and 89.1 MHz is testimony of its selectivity. The signal-to noise ratio rivals that of the better walkman type […]

C64 USB keyboard
symlink.dk writes – This page describes how to build a USB-keyboard in the form-factor of an old C64 breadbox. Actually, with little modification it can be used for any kind of keyboard, since the source code is available, and all that needs to be done is to modify the key-to-scancode mapping. The c64key is based […]
