Funny Images Thread!

The guy that expertly hit it with his head. Boy must have had eyes in the back of his head to pick that shot up.
 
I just wanted to share this. Friday night with old friends from university gathering for sauna and fool around with this robot.. so much fun.
The robot has a camera on board and is controlled via wlan. Raspberry pi running linux etc. The white plastic parts are 3D printed. Notice the title of the obstacle book.

Life without microcontrollers...
reminds me of my first design of a UART the year before MOT made one on a chip. Actually I never bread-boarded it... It just went from drawing to layout and build 1 board for a project.
All SSI and MSI CMOS Logic mid'70's

Then again of another project that failed. 24 cards on a backplane with 44 pins each all wire-wrapped in pretty aircraft style waxed-nylon wrapped bundles of 30 AWG wire and so much cross talk,talk talk....

I had to ask the girl to redo all the wirewrap. in shortest path , minimum crosstalk. .... oh dear. but that eventually shipped.
 
I'm almost finished reanimating my old Z80A wire-wrap board with an onboard PIC to provide program rom and data memory. Even at 2.6 MHz the signal lines are ringing like a door-bell.


New PIC wiring is in black with the original red wrap 'nest'.



I guess I should create a project thread on this site about it.
