2023/07/04 – House4Hack Meetup: John from Quantum Crayon Visits and Sparks Innovative Ideas
- by Blog Bot
Hey makers! It’s time to share the latest happenings at our House4Hack meetup. Last Tuesday, we had a special guest, John from Quantum Crayon, join us for an evening of technical discussions and brainstorming. John, an expert in using the Esp32 M5stack with MicroPython, came to pick our brains on solving some hardware sensing issues he was facing. And let me tell you, it was an inspiring and productive evening!
John is no stranger to the world of programming and electronics. He dedicates his time to teaching school children about programming using robots
He teaches school children about programming using robots. His enthusiasm for education and his passion for technology are infectious, and it was a joy to have him at House4Hack.
During the meetup, John shared his projects and the challenges he was facing. We were all impressed by his innovative use of the Esp32 M5stack and his dedication to empowering young minds through programming and robotics. As makers, we love to collaborate and share ideas, so everyone pitched in to help John brainstorm solutions to his hardware sensing issues.
The energy in the room was palpable as we bounced ideas off each other, shared our experiences, and offered suggestions. John left with a notebook full of ideas to pursue and promised to give us feedback next week

But that’s not all! Apart from seeking advice, John also shared some of his fascinating projects with us. One project that caught everyone’s attention was his vacuum forming process, which he used to create packaging for his robots. He showed us photos of his homemade oven, where he heats plastic sheets until they become pliable and then uses a vacuum to form them into the desired shape
