Custom FPV Video Transmission
Exploring a low-latency video path built around ESP32 Wi-Fi raw frame transfer, JPEG compression, forward error correction, and real-time display experiments.
ESP32 / JPEG / FEC / Wi-Fi / VIDEO

mudycrafter
Hardware experiments, software, robots, and other things that should probably have a manual. Built with curiosity, questionable decisions, and just enough caffeine to keep the lab lights on.

“I have a plan. It has three backup plans and a fire extinguisher.”
“Maybe the robot is not broken. Maybe it is expressing itself!”
01 / ABOUT THE OPERATOR
Curiosity with exposed wiring.
I am a computer enthusiast, maker, developer, and hardware explorer. The interesting part is rarely the finished object; it is the debugging, calibration, strange noises, and the moment a stubborn system finally works.
“I like systems that sit between software and the physical world — where code can move motors, cameras can understand space, and a small board can become a machine.”
This is a workshop, not a résumé. Nothing here claims to be finished just because it has a name.Hardware
& embedded.
Software
& systems.
02 / CURRENTLY BUILDING
Lab notes, not product pages.
Status labels describe real progress: sketches, research, and bench prototypes are not presented as polished commercial products.
P02
DIY Motion Capture
Camera calibration and multi-view tracking experiments using OpenCV, depth sensing, and reconstruction-oriented computer vision workflows.
OPENCV / ORBBEC / CALIBRATION / 3D
P03
Smart Preservation Box
A sensor-controlled enclosure concept for temperature, humidity, and power management, built around embedded hardware rather than cloud dependency.
ESP32 / SENSORS / CONTROL / POWER
P04
AI Agent Infrastructure
A private agent relay where DeepSeek handles planning and local Qwen workers absorb bounded tasks. Results can return directly as structured sections instead of flowing through the main model.
CODEX / DEEPSEEK / QWEN / AUTOMATION
P05
DIY Electronics & PCB
Ongoing board-level experiments: embedded systems, early PCB layouts, connector choices, power filters, and the ritual of discovering one missing ground.
PCB / MCU / DEBUG / POWER / CAD
03 / PLAYGROUND
The useful and the gloriously unnecessary.
A mixed-frequency zone for Linux desktops, drones, games, printing, internet culture, and experiments whose practical value is still under investigation.
Linux & Hyprland
Wayland tinkering, keybind archaeology, and making the desktop feel like a machine rather than a storefront.
FPV Flight
Betaflight, camera systems, control links, and the recurring question: why did it flip immediately?
Minecraft
Redstone, mods, and improbable builds.
War Thunder
Mechanical curiosity at unreasonable speed.
Murder Drones
Industrial sci-fi, purple glitches, and one suspiciously cheerful serial designation. It fits the website’s operating system perfectly.
3D Printing & CAD
Blender, Fusion 360, tolerances, failed supports, and the tenth revision of a bracket that was definitely going to fit.
04 / DIGITAL WORKSHOP
Four benches. One tangle of cables.
An overview of the disciplines that feed each other. The physical bench and the software stack are part of the same experiment.
LAB / HARDWARE
Hardware Bench
MCUs, sensors, power regulation, PCB review, embedded firmware, and physical debugging. Measurement first; confident guesses second.
LAB / SOFTWARE
Software Lab
Python, C++, Linux systems, automation, agent orchestration, and tools built to reduce repetitive work.
LAB / VISION
Vision Lab
Camera calibration, depth sensing, motion capture, OpenCV pipelines, and experiments in turning images into spatial information.
LAB / AI
AI Playground
Local models, remote planning models, structured delegation, and the boundary between useful automation and an expensive machine that confidently invents a directory path.
05 / CHARACTERS
Two visitors from Copper 9.
Uzi Doorman and Serial Designation N are the central pair of Murder Drones. Their unlikely alliance begins when a rebellious Worker Drone meets an unusually friendly Disassembly Drone.
Character artwork is shown from the site’s supplied media. Murder Drones and its characters belong to their respective rights holders.
Uzi Doorman
Protagonist · Worker Drone
Uzi is the rebellious teenage protagonist of Murder Drones. A Worker Drone living under the sealed doors of Copper 9, she grows tired of hiding from the Disassembly Drones and sets out to fight back. Her determination, curiosity, and refusal to accept the colony’s rules eventually lead her into an unlikely alliance with N.
Serial Designation N
Disassembly Drone · Uzi’s ally
N is a friendly and curious Disassembly Drone assigned to hunt the remaining Worker Drones on Copper 9. His open personality sets him apart from the rest of his squad, and his encounter with Uzi begins a close partnership as the pair uncover the truth about their world.
06 / GUEST CORNER

No account, tracker, or public guestbook database. Press the receiver for a local-only response from the corner’s extremely unofficial welcoming committee.
STATUS: GUEST ACKNOWLEDGED / the residents have been informed. N is excited.
