The Hiking Hack is the first of a proposed series of research expeditions investigating the role of situated design for wild animal interaction. This mobile workshop through the Panamanian Rainforest was designed to explore how context shapes the crafting of technology and to probe the limits of constructing and utilizing DIY physical computing systems in harsh environments. It also served as a means of engaging with and reflecting upon the biological, technological and cultural aspects interplaying in modern scientific research.

Great project!
By phase I just meant the wheels were out of sync a sequence of encoder counts; (0,1) (1,1) (1,2) is not indicative of one wheel traveling…
Hey #812, Thanks for chiming in here! I had some fun tweaking the Twist firmware to get better resolution. I'm currently getting about 600…
I've done this with the Arduino, and the parallax boebot encoders with students. They have worse resolution than your encoders (64 per wheel…

Hi! I'm fixing one of these up. Just carved a new key out of wood! But the motor is so noisy! Do you think there's a source for quieter fan…
I remember how hard it was trying to come up with a traffic light model for my science project back in high school.
I'm not a Python guy but that code doesn't do what you say it does. The first comment already picked the derivative created by the following…
