The ClockworkPi uConsole is one of the most polished handheld raspberry pi computers on the market. From its metal shell to the driver software it just works right out of the box. Well after you assemble it first! https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=95cCjfx3EHw I recorded a quick video of the process and was surprised at how well everything went… Continue reading Building the ClockworkPi uConsole

Pieca: A Raspberry Pi Camera System for Leica M Mount Lenses
Taking pictures and geeking out over cameras was one of my first hobbies starting with an old Olympus point and shoot, I then moved up to a DSLR upgrading as new and exciting technology became accessible to my summer job budget. I then got the opportunity to buy a Leica M8 and was immediately hooked… Continue reading Pieca: A Raspberry Pi Camera System for Leica M Mount Lenses
Emulating Kodak Aerochrome Infrared Film with Python Image Processing
What is Aerochrome film? It is an analog film stock that is sensitive to infrared light and uses false-color reversal to express infrared light as a visible color. Infrared (IR) light is invisible to the human eye but is all around us and be felt as heat. All objects in the universe emit some level… Continue reading Emulating Kodak Aerochrome Infrared Film with Python Image Processing
Measuring the Range of nRF24L01 Modules with CircuitPython
I became really interested in the capabilities of the nRF24L01 radio modules due to their insanely low price ~$2 in quantity, compared to something like a LoRa module ~$25. So you can basically have 10 for the price of one. Now I am not saying these are comparable devices, since the LoRa devices can be… Continue reading Measuring the Range of nRF24L01 Modules with CircuitPython
GNURadio GRCon 2021
It's that time of year again! the GNURadio Conference is back, in-person and virtual as a hybrid conference this year! This conference is centered around the GNURadio software and its different aspects and community. Focusing on software-defined radio processing and its applications. Each year the conference is held at a different location in the US,… Continue reading GNURadio GRCon 2021
NFT Pixel Art Generated with Python
Ignoring whether NFTs or Non-Fungible Tokens are useful or valuable it is an emerging market that combines art and code so why not try making your own with python. The process of creating an NFT will not be done in python only the image generation. I decided to create some pixel art NFTs mostly because… Continue reading NFT Pixel Art Generated with Python
Python Color Scope
Doing color correction in a program like Divinci Resolve we can see these interesting plots based on your loaded image, like the one below. These are called color scopes, they are primarily used to identify the pixel colors as you traverse the image from left to right. They are useful for photographers and videographers to… Continue reading Python Color Scope
Automatic Sensor Dust Removal
Interchangeable lens cameras are amazing feats of engineering, but as photographers trying to capture that perfect image you are sometimes saddened to realize that there are big black smudges scattered throughout your digital image. These black spots or smudges are caused by small specs of dust and debris that settle on the image sensor and… Continue reading Automatic Sensor Dust Removal
Using Jupyter Lab for Python Projects
I was looking into using Jupiter Notebooks for a project when I found the JupyterLab software, it is a tool that looks to combine your workflow into a single place. This allows you to open, and interact with, Jupyter Notebooks, text editors, terminals, and many others. You can download it for your system from the… Continue reading Using Jupyter Lab for Python Projects
Python Digital Phosphor Display with DearPyGui
The goal of the Intensity graded FFT project did not initially include a GUI aspect as I felt that the GNURadio Fosphor module provides an amazing spectrum display, but as I was programming I came across an interesting library that claims to provide a simple but powerful python GUI experience. https://teaandtechtime.com/python-intensity-graded-fft-plots/ Previous post on Intensity… Continue reading Python Digital Phosphor Display with DearPyGui
