Design and 3D printing

You lack resources in mechanical design or 3D printing. I have been passionate about CAD software since the mid-90s. I started 3D printing in 2016 with an Ultimaker 2+. I use Autodesk Fusion 360™ daily which allows me to combine these two worlds.

Perch for an electronic bird feeder

The perch is designed in two clip-on parts to allow quick replacement of the RFID antenna housed therein :

Perchoir pour oiseau - Projet Openfeeder

The shape of the perch obliges the birds to present themselves optimally for the detection of the RFID rings crimped on their legs. This shape also prevents several birds from landing at the same time.

32 feeders were deployed in the french Pyrenees between fall and spring. More information on this electronic feeder : Openfeeder project.

Device prototyping

You have an idea and you need to validate its feasibility or to design a prototype. Thanks to my multi-skill profile, my network and your expertise, let's convert this idea into a reality together.

Measuring device with Bluetooth transmission

Study and realization of the electronic device :

Design and production of the case by 3D printing :

Programming of the PC (Python©) and smartphone (Flutter™ SDK) interface for displaying the signal transmitted via Bluetooth :

Microcontrollers programming

You look for someone to programm a microcontroller, or to upgrade an existing code. I code in C language on Microchip PIC microcontrollers (PIC16, PIC18 and PIC24)and on Arduino.

Openfeeder firmware

The Openfeeder is a electronic feeder build to study the behavior and cognition of birds in their natural environment .

Electronic board and its resources :

The source code of the firmware is available on GitHub.

Fusion 360™ programming

You need to add a feature or automate a task in Fusion 360™. I can use my advanced knowledge of its API and develop an add-in in Python© language. I can also assist you in its publication on the Autodesk App Store. Very active on the Fusion 360 forums, I am a member of the program Autodesk Expert Elite.
