I don't know the ic, I guess it's like an attiny 85

2018-11-02 22:24:37 UTC  

I made a lot of low cost/wearable/very smol things

2018-11-02 22:25:14 UTC  

yes its ATTiny 85

2018-11-02 22:25:40 UTC  

yes its ATTiny 85

2018-11-02 22:25:54 UTC  

i also have some bare chips in SMD, DIPs on the way

2018-11-02 22:26:01 UTC  

I remember I made a watch, that showed the time, but the same two hands cold also show North and South, point towards a coordinate

2018-11-02 22:26:10 UTC  

And even follow another device

2018-11-02 22:26:16 UTC  

Like a spy watch

2018-11-02 22:26:18 UTC  

thats cool

2018-11-02 22:26:24 UTC  

And it was super super small

2018-11-02 22:26:35 UTC  

what should i make for a wearable?

2018-11-02 22:26:56 UTC  

Imagine fitting 2 stepper motors, GPS, compass, battery, GSM in a clock

2018-11-02 22:27:03 UTC  

Yeah I know they make smart watch

2018-11-02 22:27:18 UTC  

But I had actual clock hands to move dude

2018-11-02 22:27:22 UTC  

you had the hands on stepper motors?

2018-11-02 22:27:32 UTC  

Yeetus feetus illigaly downloading video mp3s is fun

2018-11-02 22:28:00 UTC  

Not this one, but the same kind

2018-11-02 22:28:12 UTC  

i know what clocks with hands look like

2018-11-02 22:28:25 UTC  

can i see the motors you used?

2018-11-02 22:28:30 UTC  
2018-11-02 22:28:35 UTC  

There were 2 stepper motors and the mechanism to have them have the same center

2018-11-02 22:28:38 UTC  

Yep

2018-11-02 22:29:33 UTC  

Google canon stepper motor

2018-11-02 22:29:34 UTC  

Cuuute

2018-11-02 22:29:38 UTC  

Bought from AliExpress

2018-11-02 22:29:39 UTC  

No

2018-11-02 22:29:41 UTC  

Orrible

2018-11-02 22:29:50 UTC  

They are so fragile

2018-11-02 22:30:07 UTC  

They are so fragile

2018-11-02 22:30:22 UTC  

I bought 30, before I managed to solder ONE, I broke 7

2018-11-02 22:30:36 UTC  

But yeah, iper smol

2018-11-02 22:30:51 UTC  

But yeah, iper smol

2018-11-02 22:31:13 UTC  

They have just like 7 positions or so

2018-11-02 22:31:25 UTC  

But a clock needs at least 60 right

2018-11-02 22:32:08 UTC  

So I wrote from scratch all the code to control the microstepping, following radial coordinates etc

2018-11-02 22:33:46 UTC  

wonder if i can get servos this small

2018-11-02 22:35:49 UTC  

what am i supposed to use to attach motors to their component securely when they just have the spinning pin?

2018-11-02 22:36:33 UTC  

screw through the side of a housing around it?

2018-11-02 22:50:10 UTC  

Just kill you self
