Massive Electromanget Matrix - Fetch #3

This week we change our approach towards the magnet mount. We give up the desirable passive cooling from an aluminum plate, in return for actually getting it done - and within our budget. As a student-project at the University of Oslo, we have designed and built a massive ferrofluid-display with 252 electromagnetic "pixels". On Applied Procrastination we will share all the details of this project and hopefully inspire you to make something similar - or follow your own dream projects. -------------- Twitter: twitter.com/AppliedProc Facebook: www.facebook.com/AppliedProc Instagram: www.instagram.com/appliedprocrastination/ -------------- Open Source files and project details: Code: Github repositories (Firmware+CAD+python parser): github.com/AppliedProcrastination/ PCB files & more details: Instructables: www.instructables.com/id/Mesmerizing-Ferrofluid-Di… Hackaday.io: hackaday.io/project/167056-fetch-a-ferrofluid-disp… Hackster.io: www.hackster.io/AppliedProc/fetch-a-ferrofluid-dis… Arduino project hub: create.arduino.cc/projecthub/AppliedProc/fetch-a-f… -------------- We don't have a direct link to the listing of the electromagnets we used, but they were similar to these (except one big difference, ours provide lifting power when ON not when OFF like the ones in the listing): bit.ly/2MKezJN The link is to Alibaba.com. You can discuss directly with the seller to confirm the type of magnets you want. -------------- Credits: Audio Mastering: - Haldor August Sørmoen: Intro/Theme song: - Nicklas Myhre: www.instagram.com/myhre.nicklas/ Music: - Funny song from Bensound.com - Applied Procrastination by Nicklas Myhre Sound Effect Mixing: - Eivind Rostad
