House4Hack shines at Software Freedom Day
by skullkey
Thanks to everyone who attended and participated at Software Freedom Day.
Special thanks to those who helped with the stand – helping with setting up and cleaning up afterwards, manning the stand during the talks and contributing to the exhibition.
Our stand showed of
- Arduino (incl Edudruino, Al-Quada counter, pump switch etc),
- bluetooth car & tank,
- desktop aquaponics,
- 3d printer (Printrbot),
- solar oven,
- Tweety-pi (Raspberry pi twitter wall),
- e-Breadboard tronbots etc etc
House4hack’s stand drew a lot of attention, leading to many very interesting chats, ideas and potentially new members. We were even approached to help setup a hackerspace to be founded on Wits campus!
We received some praise from prof Ken Nixon from Wits regarding the quality of presentations and talks this year – well done to everyone!
I really enjoyed this year’s SFD and can’t wait for next year!
As always, Freddie took some great photos – mouse over on the panorama to zoom in
