A year ago we released PicoGK, our compact and robust #opensource geometry kernel for #ComputationalEngineering. Since then, people all over the world have used it for everything from #rocketengines , pre-coolers for #hypersonic planes, advanced #airconditioning systems, to bone #implants. But did you know you can use PicoGK for moving mechanisms — and see the animated result directly in the PicoGK viewer? Here is a great project Josefine worked on last year. The mechanisms that go into mechanical watches are surprisingly complex and take a long time to design by hand. But building a #ComputationalEngineering Model that captures the essence of watch mechanism design is an entirely logical process. In this video, we show you how to go from the position of the hands of a watch, directly to a functioning mechanism, designing 50 watch mechanisms in just a few minutes. Because the computational model knows how the mechanism functions, you can inspect the animated result in 3D in the PicoGK viewer. We use our computational model for mechanical objects to design complex gear interactions for micromechanics and other fields. #PicoGK is free and #opensource. All you need to design functionality like that is available on our GitHub. https://github.com/leap71

Ease and Efficiency of Using Pestroniks Innovations FLYght Duo UV LED Insect Light Trap (ILT) Introducing the Pestroniks Innovations Pte Ltd FLYght Duo UV LED Insect Light Trap (ILT), launched in 2021, which set new standards in insect trapping technology. Crafted with durable aluminium, the FLYght Duo features eight UV LEDs and patented bio-Visual Enhancer (bio-VE+) technology, ensuring exceptional performance in attracting and trapping houseflies. The FLYght Duo utilises universal glue boards, providing customers with easy access for maintenance. To use the FLYght Duo, customers need to open the trap and remove the release paper from both halves of the universal glue board before inserting them back into the trap. Once the trap is switched on, the bio-VE+ insert of a FLYght Duo emits a blue glow and UV rays, attracting houseflies to the trap. The insects enter through the numerous hexagonal holes on the front and become trapped on the glue boards. One of the FLYght Duo's unique features is the discreet positioning of the glue boards within the trap. This design ensures that neither the glue boards nor the trapped houseflies are visible from the outside. Replacing the FLYght Duo's glue boards is simple. Users open the trap and replace the used boards with fresh ones. Due to their positioning, the UV light does not affect the glue boards, ensuring a longer lifespan than traditional UV ILTs. Our instructional video demonstrates the effortless process of placing and replacing glue boards in the FLYght Duo. Customers can maintain their traps through glue board changes in less than a minute, typically requiring a monthly replacement. Pestroniks engineers have prioritised simplicity and ease of maintenance, making the FLYght Duo a top choice for customers worldwide. For users of other ILTs with custom or hard-to-find glue boards, the FLYght Duo offers a practical solution that streamlines maintenance efforts. When selecting an ILT, customers need to consider the maintenance required.

Just posted a step-by-step tutorial on how to make a low-cost DIY turntable for photogrammetry. https://lnkd.in/e2NGsYTv I have been working on this personal project aiming to improve the photogrammetry speed of Williams College Makerspace student workers by at least 520% (from 5 hours to 45 minutes). The photogrammetry process with this turntable will be semi-automatic. The next iteration for this, which I probably will have to catch up on next Fall, will be integrating IR-sensors to trigger the cameras automatically at each iteration, which will make the process entirely automatic and faster than it is now! Open to suggestions!

The ROBE TetraX. Developed from the immensely successful Tetra1?, the TetraX? adds dynamic pan movement with extremely high-speed continuous rotation, dramatically increasing sweeping effect possibilities of the fixture. Generating an ultra-tight 4° beam from each of the 9 evenly spaced pixels, they combine to produce a bright, defined “sheet” of light, as desired by Lighting Designers. The homogenised beams and smooth 11:1 motorised zoom provide ultra-smooth washes out to 45°. TetraX? sets itself apart by including three exclusive eye-catching Robe patented MCFE? – Multi-Coloured Flower Effect – emitting sharp, multi-coloured spikes of light, with variable speed and rotation direction control, to further increase the projection of charismatic in-air animations. Let me know if you need these fixtures for your next event or production. https://lnkd.in/eQvQmNx4
