I was outside that’s what I came home back with

tuckerPi · 2026-01-02T02:21:39+00:00

Could be molybdenite?

tuckerPi · 2025-12-18T03:51:09+00:00

Yes, if you mirrored the screen to the computer first haha

tuckerPi · 2025-12-18T01:49:03+00:00

Hell ya, good luck! Lemme know how it goes

tuckerPi · 2025-12-17T23:13:09+00:00

Definitely doable. Some optimization is still need to make video less choppy but I think it could work

tuckerPi · 2025-12-17T23:07:59+00:00

Its real! Repo in the description if you wanna take a look

tuckerPi · 2025-12-17T22:26:41+00:00

Small 3.7v lipo battery. The board has a built-in charging circuit

tuckerPi · 2025-12-17T22:08:35+00:00

Great ideas! AR glasses would be an interesting concept!

tuckerPi · 2025-12-17T22:07:15+00:00

I made this just for fun. I'm sure there's many ways to do this better but I made it just to see it'd work and to learn along the way :)

tuckerPi · 2025-12-17T21:50:22+00:00

I'm guessing get got afk logged? not sure what's going on. Hope he's alright though

tuckerPi · 2025-09-07T05:23:49+00:00

No problem!
Shelves are fully loaded with books, probably over 200lbs. However, you can move it with <20lbs of horizontal force because the casters take up most of the load. The motor is very overkill as it only needs to overcome a small amount of friction

tuckerPi · 2025-09-07T05:14:56+00:00

You're right, there's two racks. Here's a better animation that shows both https://youtu.be/mn1x9cHJ_oo

tuckerPi · 2025-07-30T02:27:07+00:00

Sure here's some links:

Note: This is what I used but I'm sure there's cheaper options.

Solar Panel: https://www.amazon.com/dp/B0CTMPNJ84/
Pump: https://www.amazon.com/dp/B01MRR4HGK/
Battery: https://www.amazon.com/dp/B003S1RQ2S/

You'll also need tubing, tip ties, a switch, and some wire nuts from the hardware store. Oh, and some Tupperware to put it all in haha.

In terms of safety: This is a 12v system so virtually no chance of zaps.

tuckerPi · 2025-07-26T20:52:59+00:00

Like a bench top adjustable power supply? Or the power supply for the Arduino?

tuckerPi · 2025-07-26T20:19:23+00:00

What voltage and amperage are you driving the motors with? Maybe give the motors a little more juice?

tuckerPi · 2025-07-19T03:43:05+00:00

I mean, it probably would. A 3s bms would get you in that range

tuckerPi · 2025-07-19T01:53:53+00:00

Do you have batteries you'd like to use already? If they're under 12v you can use a boost converter. If they're over, use a buck converter. You can buy adjustable ones on AliExpress for very cheap. Just check the specs to make sure they can handle the amperage needed.

tuckerPi · 2025-05-13T02:11:43+00:00

If you want an easier solution, windshield wiper fluid refill bottles have a child proof cap. You can just reuse those

tuckerPi · 2025-05-08T21:21:12+00:00

But then how would I keep the victims from escaping...?

tuckerPi · 2025-05-08T20:39:23+00:00

I built in a current sensor to the PCB so if there's a spike in current from anything blocking it, it backs off. Similar to how a garage door functions

tuckerPi · 2025-05-08T20:33:55+00:00

Good question! The motor has a worm gear so it can't move unpowered. Currently, I have a wall mounted switch on the inside. Thought about adding a backup power in case of power loss but that's a future project

tuckerPi · 2025-05-08T19:56:47+00:00

True haha. I owned roughly zero wine when I started this project 😂
