This past year I got a new phone, an iPhone 13 Pro specifically for the LiDAR sensor, and especially to use one app: Polycam. Augmented Reality is an area of computing that I have been interested in since learning about Google Glass and ZeroUI, but have never been able to create it till now. 

Over the last few weeks I have been exploring the free and open source side of WebAR (part of the WebXR specification) in order to make a business case for it, and roll it into our strategy. Let’s explore what I’ve found and explain some concepts along the way.

The stepper motor isn't fast enough and I don't have the power/money budget to push it there. My takeaway from this short journey into mechatronics is the human body is truly an amazing creation.

For my booth at Syracuse Maker Faire I'm building a robot (read "motorized" - robotic just sounds way better) kick drum and a step sequencer. This document is me sharing my initial research into these areas. I'm also going to try some new-to-me features of Ghost CMS in this post.
