Binbot SETU Applied Robotics

 1.0 About Myself Hello, my name is Seán Cleary and I am a final year student in SETU studying electronic engineering. In my free time I enjoy baking, cycling, and board games. 2.0 Previous Blog Post  When looking through the previous blogs, this one in particular really stood out to me. I really like how the information is neatly laid out in this blog. The use of images, video, and additional reference links really adds to this blog and allows for information to be more easily conveyed.  https://lampbotics.blogspot.com/2016/03/robert-burke-sprint-2-extended-face.html The information in this blog is split up into smaller, easy to digest sections, and is written in very clear and concise language. This makes it very easy for anyone reading this blog entry to parse what is happening, and follow along with the work being carried out. The blog flows very clearly, with the different headings being clearly defined. The images present are also clearly numbered, and all of them a...

Blog 1 - Igor Kapusniak    About Me My name is Igor Kapusniak, I am currently in my 4th year of studying Applied Computing in S.E.T.U. with a specialisation in Internet of Things and Automotive. My hobbies include running, 3d modelling and 3d printing, and reading books on astronomy/physics.      Bin Bot Project Ideas  Fullness Tracking Track how full the Bin Bot is using ultrasonic sensors and display the information on a dashboard. Audio from the microbit could play when certain fullness thresholds are reached. This could also include automatic notifications when the bin is ready to be emptied. Remote Control Control the Bin Bot remotely from any where using microbits, MQTT, and a dashboard. The Bin Bot could be made to look in a specific direction and make a facial expression using its eyebrows. Text to Speech Implement a text to speech system that allows the Bin Bot to give audio updates or warnings. For example, it could say: I’m almost full, Thank...

 January 30 2026 Blog 1 Hello, My name is John O'Mahony. I'm a 23 year old Applied Computing student at SETU currently in my final year. My interests are mainly video games, comic books, anime and gym. So nothing too out of the ordinary for a computing student. My favourite game of all time is between Elden Ring and Dark Souls 3 but since I've played them both to death I mostly spend my free time reading through Batman comics . I've been going to the gym for about 2 years and just enjoy myself while I'm there which is enough motivation for me. It's been like 5 years almost since I finished secondary school and I'm grateful to still be in contact with pretty much all my friends from that time whom I speak to on a daily basis through Playstation parties , while having made some equally great new friends in college. I get along great with both my parents and my younger brother and I cherish all these relationships more than anything. When I was looking at p...

Hello everyone, I'm Jiayu. This is my first blog! About me As you can see from the photos below, I really enjoy traveling and trying the local cuisine in different places.  As Xu Wei (A singer in China) sings: Life is more than just what's in front of us — there's more out there. The following photos represent my most challenging trip. It was to Xizang  (located in the northwest of China. The altitude there is very high, meaning the air is thin, and it is very easy to experience altitude sickness (lack of oxygen leading to dizziness, headache, nausea, and in severe cases, even endangering life safety). Any strenuous exercise would make you short of breath. So when at a high altitude, my two friends and I could only move forward like old men. After a long journey, we finally reached the Qomolangma Base Camp (at an altitude of 5,200 meters). Although it was very painful at that time, looking back now, I feel that everything was worth it. I call this trip "viewing the sce...

  Myself:  Hey Everyone, so my name is Kuba, I'm 23 and I'm from Poland but have been living here for 19 years. I'm studying electronic engineering since I always found electronics and how they work fascinating, even when I was very young I would take apart any electronics I had just for fun. Regarding hobbies I like to game, read manga, and cook. I also love music, both listening and playing. I love travelling and photography so I have loads of pictures of different places, and I love learning about history. I also like skating and apparently also falling off the skateboard. Below are some pictures of my hobbies including cooking, travel, and a video of me falling off the skateboard. Previous blogs I liked:  I liked the "Team Bohemian Raspbian" blog in the Lampotics project. Firstly, the blog instantly caught my eye with the music reference title, as Bohemian Rhapsody is one of my favourite songs. Reading the blog was very interesting as it reminded me of my work...

Blog 1 - Davin Barron About Me: Hey Guys, my name is Davin and it is an absolute pleasure to meet you! 😀  I'm writing this blog to tell you guys all about me! 😄 To begin, I am currently in my final year of the BSc (Hons) in Applied Computing, doing a stream in Games Development at SETU. I was born in Bangkok, Thailand and absolutely love Thai food. My favourite would probably be Pad Kra Pao, but there's also many other classics like Tom Yum and Pad Thai. I don't know Thai myself since I would've came to Ireland while I was still pretty young, but I have been back many times, you guys should definitely plan a trip there some time! 😉 My main hobbies include camping, reading, exercising and gaming. Believe it or not, my love for video games was the reason I decided to do this course 🎮  I had a lot of fun learning about games development and being able to make my very own games but I also learned a lot more about other aspects of computing too!

 Hi my name is Matteo Mary I am a 23 year old Computer Science student from Waterford.  I love Athletics especially track and road running my favourite distance to run is the mile and 5Km. My personal best in the mile is 4:06 and my 5Km best is 14:40. My biggests aspirations as of now is sub 4 in the mile and sub 14 in the 5K I took a page out of George Lipceanu's book and made a Topster list of certain movies, games, tv shows and music i like! Previous Blogs From the previous blogs i really enjoyed Dominiks blog. Due to my intrest in Athlete aiding technology the HRV monitor really intersted me. The steampunk mask was the cherry on top. The way all the mechanics were working together was very impressive and compelling to see in real time the persons heartbeat and breathing being simulated through the apperatus. Seeing all the steps it took to improve this project was cool. The steps all included was very logical and thorough a very nice and easy read. Binbot Idea For the Binb...
