Another one is used more like a custom IoT hub/gateway for various BLE (and even some LoRa devices).
There's a bus station across from my studio / coworking space. I can see people waiting for the bus and doing either: 1) staring into the void 2) looking at their watches 3) desperately glancing in the direction where the bus is coming from. I figured that it'd be nice to let people know when the bus is supposed to be there. So, I installed a 28" display on a monitor stand, installed the stand on my window frame, tur…
P.S. does the transit authority offer an API or is this prone to breaking when they change their page layout?
[edit: I just read about the rumor on your webpage. Clarifies.]
With my 16 year old son, I built a weather balloon with one, including an Arduino, a few temperature sensors, a GPS, LoRA radio, and we're going to launch it next month. Having a hard time finding Helium.

This is awesome work and thank you for doing this for public without asking. P.S. does the transit authority offer an API or is this prone to breaking when they change their page layout? [edit: I just read about the rumor on your webpage. Clarifies.]
As many other transit authorities, the STM [0] offers "GTFS" data (a standard feed format for transit info) [1].
Mucking around STM's public site, you'll also see the schedule information go by if you inspect the network requests. From what I've seen, their API endpoints are stable, reliable and fast. I've had to do ~2 updates in >1 year of service.

Has anyone used it for any car-related mods? I share my passion between coding and cars so I'd love to push some boundaries there if anyone has tried before? Gauage display from sensor units, just a cool OS display for music, or maybe something cooler?
The coffee machine in our office is controlled by blockchain NFTs and a Raspberry Pi: Once authenticated, an owner of the NFT can select their coffee type on their phone which then signals the Raspberry Pi to make whatever coffee type was selected by jumping the contacts that used to be pressed by the machine's buttons (which have been removed). It's a cool gimmick, fun to show off to visitors, gives us a nice record…
> gives us a nice record of who is making coffee Is that allowed by GDPR?
