Your very own Spy Pen

Day 2 of the “Engineering a Paintbrush Made of Light” UCSD Extension Summer Course

Thankfully, the computers were not cleaned last night and all our downloads and work were still there.  Today’s plan, soldering IR LED pens and working with Processing.

I really love working with my hands, so making the pens should be fun.  However the last time I did soldering was maybe 4 years ago making stained glass.  Hopefully today’s project will be fundamentally the same.  And after looking at the Processing page and seeing what can be done, I’m really excited to learn more. 🙂

‘Till next time
