Weekly Update: 22/12/2013: Fast Fourier Transform, IR Laser Illuminator, Fluid Dynamics, Resonant Inductive Coupler, Emergent AI, Artillery

This week I finished the Fast Fourier Transform and data recorder program (Project 115). There are a few improvements and GUI additions I would need to make before I would consider releasing it, but it does what I designed it to do.

I also bought the parts for an IR laser illuminator, in the 300mW range. I own a basic night vision monocular, and having an IR laser illuminator greatly boosts it’s range. I built a small low-power laser some time ago, and it worked well, so I thought I would build a more powerful model.

I finally released my Fluid Dynamics resource on GarageGames, which I talked about here.

With regards to the Resonat Inductive Coupler project, the concept I have is working, but is nowhere near powerful enough to move ahead in the project yet. I will need to get some new circuit diagrams and do some more research in order to come up with something that will work well enough.

With the success of my genetic algorithm concept I have also begun planning and researching the next stage of this project. I am mostly working on defining the variables involved, and the scope of the project. I am trying not to be too ambitious, but at the same time I want to try to push the envelope as much as I can with this project, since AI has always held a special interest for me.

I am finishing up the Demo for Artillery as well, working on some final projectile types and about to work on on basic Art and Gui’s for the game.
