Robot Playtime

Transform your device into a programmable Robot!

What it does

Meet Pixel - your own interactive robot! Pixel starts off without any intelligence or emotion, so it's up to you to program some personality and life into it. Using Scratch, fun interactions can be programmed such as changing Pixel's emotion and speech. Pixel aims to teach the basics of robotics and programming in a fun and interactive way.

  • Hi HN, I built Eigendrum, a web tool that solves the 2D wave equation for arbitrary shapes so you can hear what they sound like as drums. How it works: * Solves -∇²u = λu using finite element analysis (Kφ = λMφ) on a triangle mesh. * Validated to <0.1% error against closed-form solutions for circles (Bessel zeros) and rectangles. * Sound model factors in strike location, Rayleigh damping, and mallet width. * Includes Kac drums I & II to demonstrate identical sound spectra from different geometries. * No frameworks, build steps, or dependencies. Repo and tests:…
