Very enjoyable, as always. I'm never going to build one of these, but it is interesting to listen to your rationale for the design choices. I do have to say that the ESP32 might have been a better choice for the controller.

Why not use esp32 if this is a new design? Some of the workarounds that you are working on would not be a issue in esp32 if I'm not mistaken

The reason I write my own display drivers is so that I'm not forced to double buffer. There's no point if you are just printing text to allocate that much ram. At most you may need a line buffer if you need scroll effects. I've driven 300x400 e-paper displays off of atmega328p's without issue this way.

I agree it's use case (and the trade offs) is not strong for the current implementation. I think once this project gets past a prototyping/ development platform the OLED might not have a use, but the extra overhead with the ESP8266 is nice.

And here I was thinking I was the only person in the world who's into table tennis and retro games! An idea I had some time ago and AFAIK doesn't exist yet: the problem playing against a robot is that you can't see the spin. I wondered if a robot announcing the spin would be useful. Not the same as reacting to a real person serving but you're still reacting to something instead of knowing beforehand which spin is being served.

Wooaah i can hardly believe that tv dates back from 2003. I might think that it dates back to 1993 to 1997. It definitely doesn’t feel like an early 2000 tv. But you did an absolute great job for modding this tv to rgb and you certainly did put that company behind this tv into a big shame for not doing so. Also that you could mess around with those cables is pretty cool because now you can invert colors in interesting ways😁🤣

when there is a traffic jam, reverse gear must be turned on for a short time. it is easy to implement software, counting the time between the parts passing under the sensor, when exceeding a certain time value, turn on reverse gear for a couple of seconds.

Great video! I love being able to use old hardware with some minor modification. It’s a shame the keyboard isn’t that good. Usually keyboards older devices are what was good about them. Curious, how long the battery on this lasts or does it have to stay plugged in? I like the beige but the black does look way cooler. If anyone is looking for something like this to just do word processing tasks, look into Alphasmart products. The Neo and Neo 2 were the best of the bunch and the keyboards feel great. Best past is they already connect to modern computers as with a USB connection. The cable required is USB-A to USB-B but almost everyone has one of these lying around or they are still readily available online.

Dude you help me recover a core memory. My family did missionary things to Indian reservation such as build new a school,community center that was a really big facility because my dad was into construction. So we stayed over in a basement in this house one trip out to South Dakota, and in the basement a kid showed off something like fisher price computer, or on a fisher price furniture. What stood out about that computer from my memories is that it had a child focus like GUI, and that kid was bragging that he could send emails to his friends/family. I don't remember the kid itself, I forgot what he looked like but I remember him showing off the computer. Also I recall seeing a garbage disposal device for the sink for the first time in my life in that same house. I think this is it device because i recall watching that Imax movie about the burning Iraq oil wells on their giant projection TV, and that movie came out around 2001.

I would remove that screen and put a slightly larger touchscreen in there and remove the motherboard and put a raspberry pie or tiny pc in there and use it as a raspberry pi computer or as a keyboard for a regular computer that also has a touchscreen menu with the top but I’m not sure if the keyboard is nice to type on so that might not be a good idea. But using it as a raspberry pi laptop would probably be the best bet as long as you get a screen that’s at least twice as high. This is a cool video though thanks!
