what I wanted to be doing: recurrent neural networks on laser distance matrix data

what I am doing: debugging i2c

@jonty why would you force me to make another #tildagon app like this?
It's prototype assembly time for my #emfcamp #tildagon badge Matrix Hexpansion (a breakout for all the badge pins and a ch32v003/6 processor). I'm hoping to use this as a boilerplate platform for making much cheaper LED matrix daughter boards.
Shown here with Donglegon, my other prototype board that will be able to power and program the Hexpansions (and maybe run them plugged into a phone or charger rather than the badge for re-use outside of the field).

Decided to model a #hexpansion idea this afternoon.

It’s a holder for some #StarTrek rank pips.

The height is accurate to the 2026 STEP file, meaning the top should be flush with the top of the badge. Will confirm when I actually have my badge haha

I’m not selling any of these, however if anyone is interested in making their own I can pop the .3mf file up somewhere

Last year at #WHY2025 I sat under the right canopy at the right time. The EMF badge people approached Arturo182 to design a keeboard hexpansion, which he sadly had to decline. But I sat there saying:

"maybe I can design something" 👉👈

Two prototypes, one job termination and a new friend @sodoku (who wrote the firmware) later and we somehow ended up here: an official hexpansion for you to get for EMF camp.

@FieldFX yes for badge dmeos! Also #tildagon #emfcamp for reach 😅
Just out of curiosity, anyone interested in making demos for the Tildagon/Spaceagon?

I made a USB Serial Keyboard driver for #Tildagon - run this, and the same terminal you use to get a tildagon repl (mpremote or minicom, eg) will now type keystrokes to the badge firmware as if you have the official tildagon keyboard instead of a thinkpad.

this is going to break soon, because lol, but here it is right now if you want to try:

The 2026 EMF Badge Arrives, With An Add-On. As Expected, It’s Familiar

Four years ago the EMF hacker camp in the UK released a new kind of event badge. The Tildagon was designed to be a recurring event badge, useful for the next EMF rather than destined to be e-waste.…
