Hi:

 

This is a Weather Station configured for Indoor Climate monitoring built with Processing 1.5.1 and Arduino UNO. At this time 3 pots connected to 3 Arduino analog inputs simulate the sensors. It should be easy to connect real sensors to monitor the variables and reset the mapping functions in the Arduino code. Most of today's sensors already contain amplifiers and the necessary signal conditioning electronics. The System can easily be reconfigured to monitor many other variables by just changing the sensors and reconfiguring the Gauges by simply changing the units of measurement and the scale parameters. The mapping functions should take care of the differences in scaling.  At this point it is ready to accept analog sensors. If digital ones are used, the Arduino code must be modified to read the I2C signals.The 10 bits resolution of the Arduino ADC is maintained and 10 bits (0-1023) samples are sent to the computer in 2 bytes not to affect the resolution. Needle Inertia was implemented by a strong digital low pass filter in the Processing code. I'm already working in a version including a 3 channel recorder, but it will take a while as my time is very limited and that's the hardest part to build.

Hi all:

 

These are Galvanometers built with Processing to be used with Arduino. The video shows 2 simple potentiometers connected to 2 Arduino analog inputs as voltage dividers for testing. Needle inertia was implemented by a digital low pass filter in the Processing code to smooth out the needle response simulating the D'Arsonval movement. Communication code uses only numbers no strings.

Hi:

 

This is a simple wall clock built with Processing 1.5.1.

This is a Sector Radar variant of the previous Radar Screen.

Had to wait for 25 years to build this. There was no Processing in the good 80's.

Hi;

 

This is a first attempt at an Arduino Oscilloscope. Still incomplete; but basically does the job of plotting and recording 3 analog signals connected to 3 Arduino inputs. Controlling the H-sweep has been the greatest difficulty of the project for me. It has severe limitations regarding frequency response; but I want it mainly for very low frequency signals, such as temp, relative humidity, pressure, etc. At this point I have 3 simple potentiometers connected as voltage dividers  to the Arduino inputs to vary the voltage and observe the variations. Still a long way to go to finish it; but I can use it already.

Hi:

 

This is a simple fictitious 3D radar screen representation of the air traffic nearby an airport. The observer is moving in a circle around the airport. The idea is to feed the spherical coordinates of the planes and observe the aerial situation in 3D. Built with Processing 1.5.1 (P3D)

This Artificial Horizon and Compass combo are part of the set of instruments I'm building to be used with Arduino. At this time the variables are dependent on the mouse and no Arduino communication code has been implemented.

The Earth has captured an Asteroid .

I was wondering what was inside the sphere... ;). I think I found it.

Hi:

 

This is a simple (non-scaled) representation of the Earth-Moon system using P3D for training purposes and fun. I'm amazed by how easy is to use P3D and the things that can be done with it so easily. Simply awesome!

Abe Pazos' video tutorial was a good starter. The guy is good. Thanks.

Thanks.

This a very simple representation of the Solar System using PVector 2D for training purposes and fun. There is no accuracy whatsoever in the distances, sizes or speeds and they do not represent reality as that wasn't the goal.

Hi;

 

While working with the ellipse equation I found some kool figures could be created by playing with some of the variables.

Maybe others find them interesting or useful.The figures and  code are here:
