Leah Buechley: How to "sketch" with electronics

Translator: Joseph Geni Reviewer: Thu-Huong Ha

Prevodilac: Bojana Stanic Lektor: Ivana Korom

Today, I'm going to talk to you about sketching electronics.

Danas ću vam govoriti o skiciranju elektronike.

I'm, among several other things, an electrical engineer,

Ja sam, pored još nekoliko drugih stvari, inženjer elektrotehnike,

and that means that I spend a good amount of time

što znači da provodim dobar deo vremena

designing and building new pieces of technology,

dizajnirajući i praveći nova tehnološka dela,

and more specifically designing and building electronics.

tačnije dizajnirajući i praveći elektroniku.

And what I've found is that the process of designing

Ono što sam saznala je to da je taj proces dizajniranja

and building electronics is problematic in all sorts of ways.

i pravljenja elektronike na razne načine problematičan.

So it's a really slow process, it's really expensive,

Dakle, to je zaista spor proces, veoma je skup,

and the outcome of that process,

a krajnji ishod tog procesa,

namely electronic circuit boards,

naime, štampane ploče,

are limited in all sorts of kind of interesting ways.

imaju raznorazna interesantna ograničenja.

So they're really small, generally, they're square

Uglavnom su zaista male, četvrtastog oblika,

and flat and hard, and frankly, most of them

ravne i tvrde i iskreno, većina njih

just aren't very attractive, and so my team and I

baš i nije nekog lepog izgleda, tako da smo moj tim i ja

have been thinking of ways to really change and mix up

smišljali načine da zaista promenimo i začinimo

the process and the outcome of designing electronics.

taj proces i ishod dizajniranja elektronike.

And so what if you could design and build electronics

Šta ako biste ovako mogli da dizajnirate i pravite elektroniku?

like this? So what if you could do it extremely quickly,

A šta ako biste to mogli da uradite izuzetno brzo,

extremely inexpensively, and maybe more interestingly,

izuzetno jeftino i možda, još interesantnije,

really fluidly and expressively and even improvisationally?

zaista pokretljivo i izražajno, čak improvizacijski?

Wouldn't that be so cool, and that wouldn't that open up

Zar to ne bi bilo kul i zar ne bi otvorilo

all sorts of new possibilities?

raznorazne nove mogućnosti?

I'm going to share with you two projects that are

Podeliću sa vama dva projekta koji predstavljaju

investigations along these lines, and we'll start with this one.

istraživanja na tu temu, a počećemo sa ovim.

(Video) Magnetic electronic pieces and ferrous paper.

(Snimak) Magnetni elektronski delovi i feritni papir.

A conductive pen from the Lewis lab at UIUC.

Provodljiva hemijska olovka iz laboratorije "Luj" Univerziteta u Ilinoisu, Čempejn-Urbana.

Sticker templates.

Šablonske nalepnice.

Speed x 4.

Ubrzano 4 puta.

Making a switch.

Pravljenje prekidača.

Music: DJ Shadow.

Muzika: DJ Shadow.

Adding some intelligence with a microcontroller.

Dodavanje inteligencije uz pomoć mikrokontrolera.

Sketching an interface.

Skiciranje međuspoja.

(Music)

(Muzika)

(Laughter)

(Smeh)

(Applause)

(Aplauz)

Pretty cool, huh? We think so.

Baš je kul, jel da? Nama jeste.

So now that we developed these tools

E sad kad smo razvili ove alate

and found these materials that let us do these things,

i pronašli ove materijale koji nam dozvoljavaju da radimo ovakve stvari,

we started to realize that, essentially, anything

počeli smo da shvatamo da, u suštini, bilo šta

that we can do with paper, anything that we can do

što možemo da uradimo sa papirom, bilo šta što možemo da uradimo

with a piece of paper and a pen

sa parčetom papira i olovkom,

we can now do with electronics.

sada možemo da uradimo sa elektronikom.

So the next project that I want to show you is kind of a

Tako je sledeći projekat koji želim da vam pokažem, na neki način

deeper exploration of that possibility.

dublje istraživanje te mogućnosti.

And I'll kind of let it speak for itself.

Pustiću ga da govori sam za sebe.

(Music)

(Muzika)

(Applause)

(Aplauz)

So the next step for us in this process

Dakle, naš sledeći korak u ovom procesu je

is now to find a way to let all of you

da sada pronađemo način da omogućimo svima vama

build things like this,

da pravite ovakve stvari,

and so the way that we're approaching that is by

a način na koji pristupamo tome je kroz

teaching workshops to people where we explain

držanje radionica gde ljudima objašnjavamo

how they can use these kinds of tools, and then also

kako mogu koristiti ovakve vrste alata, a takođe

working to get the tools and the materials and techniques

i radimo na tome da pošaljemo te alatke i materijale i tehnike

out into the real world in a variety of ways.

u stvaran svet, na mnoštvo načina.

And so sometime soon, you'll be able to play and build

Tako da ćete u neko skorije vreme vi moći da se igrate i gradite

and sketch with electronics in this fundamentally new way.

i skicirate elektronikom na ovaj potpuno nov način.

So thank you very much. (Applause)

Hvala vam puno. (Aplauz)
