The narrow beam ir detector.
All your 3 videos so far, are showing on the forum page like this:
(-empty- usually there should be an image preview in that white box)
I can see from their name that they have the extension .MOV which is a quicktime file format.
Try to change the extension you are producing these videos. I can be of help in these situations.
Or, upload them into your google drive or any file upload website, like WeTransfer.com for example that I also use, and paste the link to them here in the forum or to me privately, whatever you feel like it. I can also help you with the upload part as well.
When I click on any movie clip, it opens another window, supposedly showing the movie, but it only show the audio format From it. I right click on that progress bar to show you it is only audio and is no video, whatsoever.
Here is what I see:
You must make another video and also speak in it a bit. Do you think I like MY voice in my movies? I have the worse voice but I care more about the content than how i sound.
And many thanks for taking time and continuing this with me here, even if I didn't see it, I could hear it for a bit.
I have in mind sending you my prototypes for you to reverse engineer; does that appeal? A challenge to discover the circuits I constructed and then how they work and work together. You can have it for nothing since it will only clutter and gather dust in my man shed.
Yes, I would like to see what you did. I am always fascinated by other people inventions, and as you said, I am sure I would learn something new from them. I might make something public in my artpages, if i like it enough and I get attracted by it as you did with mine. Who knows, I don't promise anything yet, but is on the table.
Since I couldn't see anything, I can't say anything about your circuit you built so far.
