Showcase

Visiting brmlab? Awesome! Here, you can see a list of things anyone is welcome to play with and that might be a fun experience. Members present at the place will be happy to show you details and help out, just ask.

(This is work in progress so far.)

Of course, this is just the things you can play with right away. You can see much more stuff in brmlab too - robots, 3D printer, and most of the projects.

TODO: We should have some things always ready to play with in regals in the front room. This page should also serve as a documentation how to use these things so anyone can use them.

Sit Down and Play

These devices require no setup and are always ready for anyone to check out.

A neat 3d logical puzzle. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5ks1u0A8xdU

  1. boot up OpenSuse on brmvid pc
  2. make sure you have some webcam connected (you can check by running program called cheese if webcam works) and 3 cubes available (red, green and yellow)
  3. turn the webcam away from you (this setup makes it easier and logical for you to control the game)
  4. run program levelhead
  5. place red cube in front of the camera, side named ENTER facing the camera
  6. lets play. tilt cube to one side and the doll will follow that instructions. Your goal is to bring the doll to the exit of the maze. Read instructions on the top of the cube during the play.

Some (Little) Setup Required

It might take a few minutes and connecting some cables to get things working, but do not worry! Feel free to ask others for help.

A high-resolution digital microscope with super-precise motion control. See brmScope for usage and technical details. You can find it in biolab.

Play the board game of Go - and remember, everything is better with electrical shocks. See Live Wire Go Board for details, contains “quick setup” instructions.

Not Quite Ready

We can show you those, but we don't have complete docs ready, so maybe noone knowledgeable will be around and it's best if you ask in advance.
