Over winter break I noticed my wife taking notes of noteworthy, cute, or in some way memorable moments in our children’s upbringing. This led me to poking around online to see if any technology existed which enabled a better means of capturing these kinds of moments and memories.
I had a lot of fun doing a live TV interview on The Morning Show (Australia) to talk about The Poopcopter. I’m thankful for the opportunity to discuss the flying poop machine in front of the Australian people. Check it out here:
I had a blast unveiling The Poopcopter at at Minnedemo40. Thanks to those who attended and cheered for the flying poop machine. For those who missed it, you can catch the full demo in the video linked below
I’m excited to share that I will be unveiling and presenting The Poopcopter , at Minnedemo40 . I have been actively developing The Poopcopter for around a year now. I’m excited to share the current status of the project. Come see the event live in Minneapolis, MN, at the Riverview Theater on September 19th.
All the code for this project is open sourced and Dockerized for ease of use . Try it out. I built The Baby Sleep Coach so that my wife and I could automatedly track our baby’s sleep, primarily for us to know when his next nap should be. But pretty much immediately after I put out the video, the code stopped working on my baby. The first version relied on anatomical features always being present,…
Most of my projects come from brainstorming sessions, however this one was requested by my wife. She was getting mildly annoyed not remembering when our baby woke up, so she could use that information to have a better idea when our baby is likely to go down for his next nap.
Stable Diffusion blew up the internet with the very impressive images it proved to be able to generate via simple text prompts. People are generating impressive handcrafted art with it, however I wanted to blur the lines between manually written text prompts, and the real world.
I got laid off recently, just before I was about to go on parental leave. Aside from the extra unpaid time off I have been able to spend with my family, I built an Android app (free, go try it out) that attempts to address the scenario where you forget someones name mid-conversation. The app listens for voices and attempts to parse out human names, by applying some basic heuristics, and sending…
I recently became a father and have been experiencing what everyone always warns you about, sleep deprivation. Refusing to be beaten by a baby, I had the idea to build The Hungry Baby Alarm, which could alert me when my baby was likely to cry for food soon. The idea hinges on the ability to bottle feed my baby before he cries, waking everyone up.
This project originated from a comment on Reddit suggesting to take the Dog Poop Detector a step further, now that the locations of poops are tracked over time. The idea is to route the user of the system through all the known poop locations, using the optimal path, resulting in the least steps taken. So I took a stab at it and this is what resulted:
