Welcome, wary web traveler, to my corner of the internet. I appreciate your company and I hope you learn something while you're here.

The aim of this webpage is to showcase a little about me, my projects, my hobbies, and to share the knowledge I have obtained throughout these adventures. Here, ("Home") you can find general information about me and this website, as well as some links to what I personally think are the most interesting projects/articles/topics on here. "Blog" will contain instructional articles, project articles, and other interesting (to me) topics. Finally, "Tips and Tricks" lists some software, hardware, and vendors that I personally use or enjoy.

If this is your last time here, I wish you good luck and prosperity in all your future endeavors. 🥳

Well, my name is Jacob, and I am a full time student at the moment, as well as working as an Associate Embedded Software Engineer based out of the American mid-west. Primarily, I work on data acquisition devices in the realm of thermal and power measurement. My hobbies don't stray far from these industries, mostly revolving around robotics and measurement projects. As of late, I have been working on a weather station at school with some fellow students, as well as some personal projects with similar environmental monitoring aspects for my garden at home.

Laser Serial - An Experiment

As a quick weekend project, I wanted to see how easy it was to transfer serial data over a couple laser diodes and photo resistors.

Chapster the Chapstick Robot

"Chapster" the chapstick robot was designed for one sole purpose: retrieve chapstick from across my desk and move it three feet closer to me.

BU Weather Station

The BU Weather station is a university project I am actively working on. The station collects and reports collected environment data publicly.

The Arduino 1200 bps Reset

How the Arduino IDE is capable of easily downloading firmware on virtually any controller on demand.
