WELCOME!
Welcome to Wamovations, my personal workshop for innovation, driven by a simple goal:
SIMPLIFY the complex. Enjoy!
HelpBot
​
A tribute to my first aid training and my desire to use AI to produce something helpful, HelpBot was initially developed as a specialized First Aid assistant, utilizing OpenAI's GPT-3.5 model alongside a PDF of the American Red Cross First Aid manual. With the release of newer OpenAI models offering enhanced capabilities, such as real-time internet access and improved prompting, the original approach was generalized and streamlined to align with the updated API. HelpBot was recently migrated from Windows to Linux/Docker, allowing deployment on a Lightsail container for cost efficiency and easier maintenance. It has also been updated to use OpenAI's GPT-4.0 model and now includes additional roles to choose from.​​
RemoteIgnition
IN PROTOTYPE DEVELOPMENT
Introducing RemoteIgnition:
​
Fueled by the desire to make mornings warmer and more convenient, RemoteIgnition is a handy portable remote key actuator system designed to bring seamless remote ignition to 'legacy' keyed ignitions, like that on my Honda Civic, with a list to more models to be tested.
​
This innovative system features a steering wheel-mounted box with a versatile flexible arm, enabling the actuator to efficiently access and operate a wide range of ignition points. The actuator consists of an adjustable robotic gripper, rotated into position by a precision servo motor. Command and connectivity are managed by an ESP32 Microcontroller. Powering this ensemble is an Anker rechargeable battery.
​
Rooted in the principle of 'Simplify,' RemoteIgnition features straightforward design, reusability, and minimal alterations to existing systems.
About Wamovations
Welcome to Wamovations! Running solo and part-time, this is my personal workshop for innovation, driven by a simple goal: to SIMPLIFY the complex. My focus is on using the latest technology to turn clever ideas into practical, easy-to-use solutions for common problems.
​
I'm also putting together a modest collection of T-shirts with designs I like. Making the designs is a fun and creative outlet while the bigger ideas simmer.
​
Stay tuned for what's coming next and join me on this journey of creativity and simplicity.
