+ <p>When brewing your own beer, temperature control is important. If the temperature isn&#8217;t regulated correctly, the yeast will be killed when it&#8217;s added to the wort. It&#8217;s best to cool the wort from boiling down to about 25 C quickly before adding yeast.</p>
203
+ <p>To do this, [Kalle] came up with a <a title="Temperature based flow regulator" href="http://gizmosnack.blogspot.se/2013/04/temperature-based-flow-regulator.html">wireless temperature controller</a> for his home brewing setup. The device uses a <a title="Heat Exchanger" href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Heat_exchanger">heat exchanger</a> to cool the wort. An ATmega88 connected to a H-bridge controls a valve that regulates flow through the heat exchanger. It reads the current temperature from a LM35 temperature sensor and actuates the valve to bring the wort to a set point.</p>
204
+ <p>A neat addition to the build is a wireless radio. The <a title="nRF24L01" href="http://www.nordicsemi.com/eng/Products/2.4GHz-RF/nRF24L01">nRF24L01</a> module provides a wireless link to a computer.

+ <p>We&#8217;ve seen [Todd Harrison]&#8216;s work a few times before, but he&#8217;s never involved his son so throughly before. This past Easter, he thought it would be a good idea for his son and a few of his friends to take part in an easter egg hunt. Being the ham he is, he decided to turn an easter egg hunt into an adventure in radio direction finding, or as amateur radio operators call it, <a href="http://www.toddfun.com/2013/04/04/rescue-the-easter-bunny-ham-radio-fox-hunting-for-beginners/">a fox hunt</a>.</p>
215
+ <p>[Todd] put together a great tutorial on building a yagi &#8211; a simple directional antenna &#8211; out of a couple of pieces of PVC pipe and a few aluminum and brass rods. With this and a handheld ham set, [Todd] hid <a href="http://www.byonics.com/mf">a fox</a> along with a stuffed easter bunny and a basket of candy near a local park. Operating under the guidance of his dad, [Todd]&#8216;s son and his friends were eventually able to find the fox. Leaving candy out in the Arizona sun probably wasn&#8217;t [Todd]&#8216;s best idea &#8211; the fox, and candy, were covered in ants when they were found &#8211; but it was a great introduction to amateur radio.</p>

225
+ <p>Like most hackerspaces, when the folks at DIYode, the Guelph, Ontario hackerspace, aren&#8217;t in the workshop, they&#8217;re on IRC. It&#8217;s a great way to build a community, complete with a bot that collects and catalogues to-do items, meeting topics, posts events to IRC, and even does a bit of text-to-speech so members currently at the DIYode can listen in on the IRC room. There&#8217;s also a webcam for the DIYode space that members check constantly. [Simon] thought it would be a great prank to freak out those members that constantly check the webcam, and we&#8217;ll say <a href="http://codeshield.diyode.com/2013/04/april-1st-on-the-diyode-irc/">he succeeded with a little help from the Alabama Face Guy</a>.</p>
226
+ <p>The build listens for a specific phrase in the IRC room &#8211; &#8220;Hey, someone just entered the shop without the doorbot noticing” &#8211; and sends a command via Python to an Arduino to raise and lower a cardboard cutout of a sneering face in front of the web cam. For an April Fool&#8217;s build, this is probably one of the most creative and creepy we&#8217;ve seen this year.</p>

+ <p>[Ivan] made something special with this car stereo hack. He altered the head unit to <a href="http://www.ivancreations.com/2013/03/mp3-cassette-player.html">play MP3 files from USB and added an auxiliary line-in</a>. But looking at it you&#8217;d never know. That&#8217;s thanks to the work he did to create a false button hiding the audio jack, and a false cassette hiding the USB port and MP3 player display. Possibly the best part is that the radio itself still works like it always did.</p>
265
+ <p>There are several components that went into making the system work. It starts with the cassette/radio head unit. To that he added an MP3 player with remote which he picked up on Deal Extreme. He wasn&#8217;t a huge fan of the IR remote that came with it so he rolled in a remote that mounts on the steering wheel. To pull everything together he used a PIC 16F877a. The microcontroller controls the lines which tell the head unit if a tape has been inserted. When [Ivan] selects either the Aux input or wants to play MP3s from a thumb drive the uC forces the head unit into cassette mode and the audio from the player is injected into the cassette player connections.</p>
266
+ <p>To help deter theft [Ivan] created two false fronts. The end of a cassette tape plugs into the USB port. The rewind button plugs into the Aux jack. You can get a good look at both in the demo after the break.</p>

277
+ <p>Here&#8217;s a really quick video which takes <a href="http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=SpzNQOOBeRg">a different approach to understanding the Fourier Series</a> than we&#8217;re used to. If you&#8217;re a regular reader we&#8217;re sure you&#8217;ve heard of the Fourier Series (often discussed as FFT or Fast Fourier Transform), but there&#8217;s a good chance you know little about it. The series allows you to break down complex signals (think audio waves) into combinations of simple sine or cosine equations which can be handled by a microcontroller.</p>
278
+ <p>We&#8217;ve had that base level of understanding for a long time. But when you start to dig deeper we find that it becomes a math exercise that isn&#8217;t all that intuitive. The video clip embedded after the break changes that. It starts off by showing a rotating vector. Mapping the tip of that vector horizontally will draw the waveform. The Fourier Series is then leveraged, adding spinning vectors for the harmonics to the tip of the last vector. The result of summing these harmonics produces the sine-based square wave approximation seen above.</p>
279
+ <p>That&#8217;s a mouthful, and we&#8217;re sure you&#8217;ll agree that the video demo is much easier to understand. But the three minute clip just scratches the surface. If you&#8217;re determined to master the Fourier Series give <a href="http://www.youtube.com/view_play_list?p=B24BC7956EE040CD">this mammoth Stanford lecture series on the topic</a> a try.</p>

+ <p>[Tim] is getting his drone ready for SparkFun&#8217;s 2013 Autonomous Vehicle Competition on June 8th. He has a pretty good start, but was having some problems accurately measuring travel distance. The technique he chose for the task was to glue magnets onto the axles of the vehicle and monitor them with a hall effect sensor. Those sensors are finicky and a few problems during testing prompted him to look at a redundant system. Right now he&#8217;s experimenting with <a href="http://www.wildcircuits.com/2013/03/optical-mouse-hacking.html">adding an optical mouse sensor to the autonomous vehicle</a>.</p>
291
+ <p>Recently we saw the same concept used, but it was meant for <a href="http://hackaday.com/2013/03/10/tracking-a-car-like-it-were-a-computer-mouse/">tracking movement of a full-sized automobile</a>. If it can work in that application it should be perfect here since the vehicle is much closer to the ground and will be used in ideal conditions (flat pavement with clear weather). [Tim] cracked open an old HP mouse he had lying around. Inside he found an Avago ADNS-5020 sensor. After grabbing the datasheet he discovered that it&#8217;s simply an I2C device. Above you can see the Arduino Leonardo he used for the first tests.</p>
292
+ <p>[Tim] coded functions to monitor the chip, including some interesting ones like measuring how in-focus the surface below the sensor is. This brings up a question, is there limit on how fast the vehicle can travel before the sensor fails to report back accurately?</p>

302
+ <p>We&#8217;re used to thinking of limit switches as a mechanical device that cuts the motor connection before physical damage can occur. [Anthony] decided to try a different route with this project. He built this set of <a href="http://www.anthonyvh.com/2013/03/24/hall-effect-switch/">no-contact limit switches using a hall effect sensor</a>. The small black package sticking out past the end of the protoboard is the sensor. It is used to detect a magnetic field.</p>
303
+ <p>[Anthony] chose to use an Allegro A3144 sensor. Apparently it is no longer in production but was easy to find for a song and dance on eBay. When thinking about the design he decided to add two LED indicators, one lights when the switch is open and the other when it has been tripped. This would have been easy to do with just one LED, but he needed to add more parts to get both working. In the lower left corner of the protoboard you can see the configurable gate device (74LVC1G58) he added to monitor the hall effect sensor and switch the output and LEDs accordingly.</p>
