Laser Maze by Benicia Makerspace

Faire: Bay Area

Maker: Benicia Makerspace

Home: California, United States

You’ve seen in in the movies, the security system with a field of crisscrossed laser beams, break a beam and the alarm goes off. This is your opportunity to test your skills against a high-tech laser security system, just for fun. Can you successfully step over, under, and around the laser beams without tripping an alarm? The Laser Maze is a timed game based on real security system design details. Skilled guests can navigate through it in a few seconds, but be careful, every time you break a beam it adds three seconds to your time. Feel free to ask us about how it works, with a Raspberry Pi, two Arduino Micros, and eight ESP8266 microcontrollers, every laser is modulated at a different frequency and the laser receivers look for only that specific frequency.

tscann16: A 5k 16mm film scanner

Faire: Bay Area

Maker: Catilya

Home: California, United States

tscann16 is a home-brew high quality film scanner. It uses stepper motors to move optical film like a cassette tape player would, and takes hi res photos of each frame with a macro lens on a DSLR, which is controlled with computer vision running on a Raspberry Pi5. It yields a 5k scan of 16mm film, or 4k scan of 8mm film, and can handle damaged film, warped film, film with damaged or misshapen sprockets, delicate films, and handmade films. Tscann16 offers an alternative to lower quality flickering telecine scans, poor quality consumer scanners with cheap lenses and sensors, and unattainably expensive vintage commercial scanners. Tscann16 duplicates can be built at low cost, given a lens and a DSLR. Most parts are 3D printed, and stepper motors from a 3D printer drive the film.
