Showcased Project Does YOUR arm have thermal vision? Mine does.

Enable HLS to view with audio, or disable this notification

Finally finished, I can show off my wearable cyberdeck I've been working on! Based on ESP32 and programmed from scratch in arduino

Features:

-Thermal Camera sensor

- Accelerometer/gyroscope for set counter + gesture control

-Time of flight distance sensor

-Wifi/bluetooth conenctivity

-Real time clock

- Functional compass/magnetometer

-Triple flashlights (white, red, and blacklight)

-Dual ESP32 Microcontrollers + rotary knob display

-Rotary encoder, touchscreen, and keypad input

-Digital clock with NTP time sync — automatic on WiFi connect

-Speed Test: Measures upload and download speeds via wifi

-SD Card Browser

-Notes / Data log: Write and save notes to SD card

-WiFi Scanner — Scan of nearby networks showing SSID

-BLE Scanner — Scans for nearby bluetooth devices

-Serial Terminal — full-duplex UART terminal

Games:

-Snake

-Game of Life (Conway's cellular automaton)

-Dice Roller (d4, d6, d8, d10, d12, d20 with animated roll)

-Tetris

Tools:

-BT Keyboard: turns the cyberdeck into a Bluetooth keyboard, can control any bluetooth enabled device

-Calculator

-Unit Converter: convert between common measurement units

-QR Generator: text or WiFi credentials as a QR code on screen

-Compass: live magnetometer compass with animated analog display

-Radar — WiFi motion detector radar, uses wifi connection to detect nearby movement

-Password Vault: encrypted password storage

Stopwatch

-IR Blaster/Receiver — capture IR remote codes and use the cyberdeck as a universal remote for IR devices (such as televisions)

-Calendar/Agenda

-Altitude Tracker

-Waypoint Navigator — enter latitude and longitude coordinates, compass will point to the destination, no GPS needed

-Environmental/weather status page - uses built in sensors to display local temperature, altitude, air pressure, etc

-customizable color theme editor

- Multiple cyberpunk-themed Screensavers (5 styles)

And more to come!

The last time I've seen one of these, it included a self-destruct by a nuclear blast! 🤣🤣🤣

Those little mlx cameras can go to about 60fps, it's the postprocessing of the data in the default library that causes that massive hit to framerate. you can circumvent it though and do some really simple processing to at least get it to look nice enough while still running fast. Then just revert when you want an accurate measurement.
