I work in publishing (books, editorial department), but spend most of my free time on computery things.

Projects:

1. TabletKeyboardHub

Refitting a Cherry ML 4100 USB keyboard into a new case (build from the trashcans) that can hold a tablet or phone while integrating a USB hub and maybe even a Raspberry Pi Zero. Status: On halt while waiting for parts to arrive.

2. Rallye Luxus-Pi-Radio

Including a Raspberry Pi Zero W into an existing, well documented old radio made by Philips. Status: Decision Making: Looking at inclusion of DAB+; PiRadio or a USB sound card; looking at powering the Pi0 without a seperate power supply; Software: I am unable to make Volumio play audio over Bluetooth (Pi as BT sink), but what else should I use?

Coming up

  • EOMA 68 related stuff (retrofitting EOMA 68 in old laptops),
  • PocketCHIP fun,
  • (huge maybe:) Raspberry Pi 3 (or other widely available SBC [suggestions welcome!] based LTE handheld

Software only

  • Fixing up a Powerbook G4 12" with MacPorts, abandonware and maybe OpenBSD for being used as a Space laptop.

Learning

  • Arduino, ESP8266
  • OpenSCAD
