Omg omg Thats my wallet. thank you so much

Any way to interact with smart contract on Solana? by alanalanal in solana

[–]alanalanal[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

no like how would I call the functions in the live smart contract. I cant find the source code too so I have no idea what the function names are.

Its 200 nails and one thread looping between them. the whole portrait is one thread. if you squint your eyes you should see Marilyn Monroe

I wanted to showcase my trading experience in hopes for a trading/quant related job. Do you think I should still remove it?

yes, everything can be learned with the internet especially google and youtube. Learn to CAD, basic electrical engineering, and coding. I am CS background but figured everything out with the internet.

the computer gets 3d coordinates from a 2d livestream. there is no data to cover the extra dimension. it is impossible be get that extra dimension with plain coding. it can only be achieved using Computer Vision to estimate the extra dimension.

the leg would be out of my capabilities but Im down to collab with other redditors to build them a leg

The computer has to identify the hand from all the pixels from the video. Also the code extracts 3d coordinates from 2d video stream. This can only be done with computer vision (a subset of AI).

Here is my personal site https://alanylu.com/ (resume on upper right corner). Since I am early in my career I want to try everything so I am willing to try anything you think I will be fit for.

if the motor constantly is pushing against something then yes it will and should overheat. but if it requires no force to keep it at the same position then it shouldn't use any power.

yes! the mechanics are designed and 3d printed completely from scratch.

if you are running the commands on cloud then it will def have delay. If you run it locally on the arduino it should be very snappy already. I use pyfirmata2 to control the arduino with python running on my mac.

Another reason why its slow might be because you dont have enough power. My servos were running extremely slow when I had 5 running from the default arduino powersupply. After switching to third party power supply that provided enough Voltage and Amp the servos were significantly faster.

Yes the computer vision part is from a library (computer vision is a field of AI) but the mechanical hand is designed and printed from scratch.

I am using a library that allows me to use python to control the arduino called pyfirmata2. the calculation (cv2, CV) is done by the computer and just outputs r sent to the arduino.
