For Halloween, I temporarily blanket a โ€œforestโ€ with WiFi for all the props. And every year Iโ€™m struggling with the coverage. So this year, I had Claude build out a WiFi coverage map with real data.

Most of the props use an ESP32 microcontroller. So instead of mapping with my phone, Iโ€™m walking around with a microcontroller on a powerbank (and my phone for GPS fix). That way I got a much more accurate coverage map.

I solved one of my biggest Halloween problems. A lot of our props are motion-activated with e.g. a PIR sensor. But itโ€™s usually very unreliable, and difficult to adjust. It also forces the motion sensors to be very close to the prop because itโ€™s wired. This year, I sat down with Claude and built tripwire.

I get notified if a device disconnects, battery is low, etc. I can ship OTA firmware updates.

And I can set up prop and sound triggers as needed

Can Claude make full drawings for mechanically connecting this actuator to the bead setter in the background? Just sent it my 3D scan. Weโ€™ll see ๐Ÿคž

Got a 3D printed prototype as well. Quality is terrible because of unsupported overhang and a few early design issues.

And yes, there's of course a bunch of variants of the Yak mascot :)

I had waaaay to much fun designing and animating this Yak mascot with Opus 5.5
