I own a basic night vision monocular, and having an IR laser illuminator greatly boosts it&#8217;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.<\/p>\n<p>I finally released my Fluid Dynamics resource on GarageGames, which I talked about <a href=\"https:\/\/phoenixgamedevelopment.com\/blog\/?p=240\">here<\/a>.<\/p>\n<p>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.<\/p>\n<p>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.<\/p>\n<p>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&#8217;s for the game.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>&nbsp; This week I finished the Fast Fourier Transform and data recorder program (Project 115).
