I'll be putting together a much longer video with more details about agricultural drones in Thailand. We have a lot more footage and info we gathered and will post on ATL.

MG electric vehicle charger spotted in gas station near Bangkok.

There is a growing number of chargers around Thailand as electric vehicles grow in number on the road.

Chinese EV company BYD will soon begin building a factory in Thailand as well.

🔧3D​ printed phone/camera cage

▪️Camera cages let you easily modify/customize/accessorize your phone or camera - it also allows you to move your camera around more freely without touching the actual phone/camera using multiple types of handles;

▪️3D designing and printing out a cage allows for greater customization (and is many times cheaper);

▪️We're developing this first prototype which we'll make opensource (releasing the files for free online) and do a video on how to assemble & use it;

▪️Depending on how this project goes, we'll do more opensource projects across a range of areas - photography, agricultural, health care, and more...

📷 Our 3D printed camera cage being used with a professional camera and equipment...

We'll continue testing it and adding new features. We will also be releasing the designs for FREE, open source, for anyone with a 3D printer to print out for themselves.

This is the first of many open source tech, ag, & health care projects we'll be working on.

Merry Christmas to all!

Here's hoping to have more time in the new year to devote to technology and solutions here at the Applied Technology Lab.

⚡️development of outdoor solar generator

This is the very first step, a strong, mobile cart to hold thee solar panel, controller, inverter and batteries...

▪️For running outdoor projects like lighting at night;

▪️Pumps and monitoring sensors for agricultural projects;

▪️For emergency backup, operating home water pump, fans, and router for a short period of time...

☀️❄️ To beat the heat, we're experimenting with a water cooled shirt.

It is similar in concept to cooling garments worn by astronauts but utilizes common components anyone can buy including aquarium tubing, a 12v DC water pump, and cheap rechargeable 12v batteries.

It's still being tested and a few versions are likely to be made including one using a sewing machine instead of sewing in the tubing by hand!

❄️ In 41C (105F) weather this cooling-system made of common-place items is actually working.

To do:

▪️Extend duration from 10 minutes to 30 or even 60 minutes at least between adding addition ice;

▪️Create a smaller more practical carrying method (belt system perhaps);

Industrial design isn't about getting it right the first time, it's about getting something going to learn from and get it right in the end.
