Darian Makes

Make Date: June 2020

I grew up watching Star Trek: The Next Generation. I’ve always wanted to build a Star Trek themed device, so I finally got around to remixing one of my old projects to make a Star Trek Display Terminal.

The terminal provides the following information:

• Weather – using the National Weather Service
• Indoor Temperature, Humidity and Volatile Organic Compound (VOC) strength
• News Articles – from News.org
• Schedule (with alarm function) – from Microsoft Outlook
• Fitness Information (Steps, Move Minutes, Heart Points, Weight, Calories Burned) – from Google Fitness
• a Resistor color code chart
• an LED Resistor Calculator (to determine the resistor value based on current and source power)
