Arduino Night
THIS CLASS STARTS AT 8, NOT 7!!!!! In the last class we went over the basics of serial communication. This class will dive a little deeper into serial by using Python to talk to the Arduino instead of the Arduino IDE’s serial monitor. This will enable the sending of more complicated data than just ASCII…

Artemis Night @ Unallocated Space – Jan 31st
Come out to Unallocated Space Saturday, Jan 31st for a special LAN gaming night featuring Artemis Space Bridge Simulator, the awesome game where you get to crew your very own spaceship. (Think the bridge on Star Trek. Yes, this is going to be GREAT!!) If you already have the game, good. If not, don’t worry.…

SDRCON
Come out to SDRcon on January 10th, 2015 starting at 10AM! What is SDRcon? It is a whole day dedicated to Software Defined Radio and radio in general. There will be hands on activities as well as a few talks. This is not just for hams! The topics will include: Building GNU Radio from source.…

Arduino Night (5 Dec 7-10 PM)
Having finished the seven segment projects, it’s time to move on to something a little more demanding. We will take a look at serial communications with the Arduino. We will go over what serial actually is, and how it is sent. Then we will dig into actually communicating between the laptop and Arduino by having…

FPGA Night (2 Dec, 7-10 PM)
We will continue work on the spectrum analyzer project. This class will focus on testing the uart_comms module (handles the serial protocol) and using it to control the frequency of a sine wave. This code will be used in the final code as a way of ensuring things are working properly. The next step will…

NSM Intro and Discussion
Over time, I’ve heard many people ask various questions about Network Security Monitoring (NSM)…. there seems to be a few people that work NSM and a few that are curious… What I expect to cover: What is Network Security Monitoring (NSM)? What tools are available? What do they give you and how to use them…

Arduino Night (21 Nov, 7-10 PM)
We will continue working with the 7 segments. This class will introduce bit shifting and creating custom functions. Both of these topics will be used to display things on the 7 segments. If you have your own 7 segment, feel free to bring it. There will be several to choose from if you need one.…

FPGA Night (11 Nov, 7-10 PM)
This is going to be the first of two classes for creating the VHDL module that will allow changes to be made on the fly via a USB to serial adapter. We created a framing protocol for sending data last class. We will start this one by implementing that framing protocol. There will also be…
