New Interest
When I was in junior high I inherited about 8 years of diy electronics magazine. I immediately dove in and built a darkroom to build printed circuit boards and created a whole lab of “stuff.” I made a ton of things then lost interest at the beginning of college and abandoned all my gear. A couple of months ago after writing code for 4U2SEE LED signs, a co-worker of mine gave me a “wiring” (www.wiring.co.uk) board and sparked my interest in electronics again. So I’ve bought a bunch of stuff.
- Digital temp soldering iron
- Kanda STK 200 avr programmer
- Bread/perf boards
- LEDs, LED Matrices
- Resistor kit
- Capacitor kit
- “Helping hands”
- A few LCD screens
- and a whole bunch of other stuff
My career now focusing on computer/network security I’ve decided to build some keyloggers. I really have no idea what I’m doing but I’ll figure it out.
I’ve taken on a new project for Maker Faire this year, which involves a lot of LED signs and webcams. Let me just say the vendor that I’m dealing with made promises they couldn’t keep.
So I plan on posting a bunch of micro controller projects and security related projects in the months to come.
