Sounds like not too biggie of a problem with some add ons. Also, that's interesting to hear that the Pi 5 can wake itself up!

Oh! Another quick question - the lens glare piece, would there be any reason that could not be 3d printed rather than laser cut pieces? Thank you in advance

Oh wow! Ok, great! Thanks for the info! Also, would there be any reason it could not run on a Pi 3B+? Could the Pi 3B+ be used to at least capture the images, then the classifcation done elsewhere?

Hey! Does the light trap (catch and release) attract different insects? What would be the advantages to the box?
Also, have you seen MothBox DIY @dinalab.bsky.social? πŸ˜ƒ

@dinalab.bsky.social Been looking through the Mothbox DIY documentation, it's pretty neat! With regards to the camera for Mothbox DIY, why was the ArduCam OwlSight chosen rather than a Pi Camera module?

Interactive Robot Butterfly Survey Imagine Robot Butterflies controlled by anyone on the internet in a live performance! It would be great to hear your perspective on this idea. Would you be up to completing this short survey? It would...

Hey! I'm trying to see if there's interest in an interactive Robot Butterfly performance. It would be super helpful if anyone out there could complete this survey, it should only take 3 minutes! Thank you πŸ™‚ forms.gle/8CKTG8PDAbho...

Enjoy the interplay of the similar colour hues here, nice work!

Robot Butterfly sporting brilliant red wings as it appears in the foreground of winterberry holly. The red berries dot the landscape, contrasting from the bland branches. The sun is setting, as seen through the trees.

Camera with lcd screen in focus showing four 3d printed pieces, each adorned with a unique smile expression, with a gradient colour scheme spanning four distinct colours. In the background, those same pieces are exhibited on a table with a white backdrop.

The colours are extra groovy on this set πŸ˜„ Here's a preview of four new enclosure designs for Robot Butterfly (or perhaps some other critter!)

A group of young bunnies have built a 'robot' made from cardboard boxes and other things. They are now proceeding down the hallway, knocking over a lamp, to the chagrin of their parent

(Stumbled across this from browsing photography hashtags) Sorry to hear, hope you will have a smooth recovery. Incredible photo with the light and reflections!! What metering mode would you recommend for photos like this?

Incredible! Does the river freeze over entirely? Must be so serene to skate there ☺️

So cool - can see the tiny village in between the clouds! The height of those trees is really impressive!

View from the shores of Lake Ontario. The water is frozen to a point. The photo is visually interesting with the different shades of blue. Robot Butterfly is in the middle of the photo.

Sorry for all the questions -- thinking of having a try at plaster moulds again. Do you spray the top of the plaster liquid with isopropyl alcohol to remove bubbles?

Ah wow, you do the step of making a silicone mould! Nice. For mixing the plaster, do you use a whisk by hand or an immersion mixer? That's interesting about mixing hydrocal in as well. What ratio of water do you use? Do you let the plaster slake in water before mixing?

Cool! Nice design on the mould πŸ˜ƒ Sounds a little bit thicker than slip πŸ‘
Any tips on making plaster moulds? What was your process like for that?

Remember those moments in museums that captured your curiosity and imagination?

I’m currently exploring bringing Robot in the Park into museum spaces - robotinthepark.org/museum-exhib...

Would be great to hear any recommendations of museums!
