I’ve designed a complete new hardware & software for the bicycle comp that I’ve published some months ago. This one has a 128X64 monochrome graphics screen instead of the 16×2 character display of the former one.
this has got real time clock as well as the temperature sensor like the old one. But all data can either be shown fully digital or two different analog display modes.
I’d published a product for mounting mp3 players to bikes some months ago. Recently I’ve resized it, converted its locking mechanism to a double lock for added strength and printed one, by using an UP printer. I’ve assembled it to my folding bike with the mp3 player that i’ve bought from the market for just 14$. The design turned out to be nice, performed its duty well, holding the mp3 player in place at the same time directing its sounds towards the rider. Though the speakers of the player were at the sides, the sound was being distributed to the sides and music was a bit difficult to hear without redirection.
now sound is good. The STL files are at the end of the article for the ones who want to print their own product.
The creation of this article is a kitsch product that looks and pretends to be like a steam engine.
But within the body, there is microprocessor power and a graphics LCD screen that can display various clock faces.
It can generate a number of sound effects suitable for the current clock graphic displayed on the LCD.
The body is suitable to be produced at a 3D printer.
Not all squeezers are actually meant to squeeze. Perhaps the most famous example of this is the Juicy Salif, designed by Philippe Starck in 1990. It is considered an icon of industrial design that has been displayed in New York’s Museum of Modern Art. It is manufactured by Italian kitchenware company Alessi. Its diameter is 14 cm, height 29 cm, and it is made from cast and polished aluminium. As the founder of the company Alberto Alessi recalls “I received a napkin from Starck, on it among some incomprehensible marks (tomato sauce, in all likelihood) there were some sketches. Sketches of squid. They started on the left, and as they worked their way over to the right, they took on the unmistakable shape of what was to become the juicy salif. While eating a dish of squid and squeezing a lemon over it, Starck drew on the napkin his famous lemon squeezer.”
This is a bicycle computer product with 16×2 LCD screen, real time clock, temperature sensor, light sensor, total & trip distance measurement, even a knight rider led display that changes its swing speed according to the bike’s speed. A very fun project.
A product powered by pic 12F675 microcontroller. The circuit drives 6-8 leds separated into two groups which can be red and blue, imitating a police type rear-front flasher.

This is a timing device which I’ve made for a symposium in our university.
You adjust the time in the splash screen then press and hold SAY (Count) and it counts up to the adjusted time.
The timer will announce the last minutes of the time by led effects and speech.

Yet an other bicycle light design which uses the same circuitry with the solar charged bike light project.
