Paul 创造了世界上最贵的，也是独一无二的老鼠旅馆。此旅馆用单片机做的，会红外感应老鼠的到来。老鼠一进门，大门就会自动锁上，只有人类才能放它出来。
姜昊的“没有用的盒子”的创意来自网络。它反效率，反成功，它没有任何作用。它唯一的功能就是，当你打开开关，它就会自动把开关关掉。
贾蜀的PM2.5盒子，利用廉价的灰尘传感器加上Arduino系统，通过参考其他牛人的文章，稍加改动，集成了灰尘、温度、湿度的传感器，可以对当前环境的灰尘量（直径〉0.4微米的灰尘）进行监控。想知道目前身边、办公室、家里的空气质量如何？想知道买的空气净化器是否有效？那就一起来做吧！
目前电路图、软件、已完全开源，成本不到100元。
Mika热爱图形，动态影像，声音，之所以设计了这个“心跳”，希望借助实体物件去表达，让大家能把自己的心传达给对方，让物件与人之间的联系更加紧密。Mika在2011年底加入了新车间，他很高兴能在一个聚集了各路精英的开放式交流平台，以前卫的想法和面对面的交流，与各位创客们一同实现各种梦想。
李大维设计的低温慢煮器让你可以在20分钟内吃到一颗美味的温泉蛋。创客空间的午休伙食就靠它了。
Lucio的3D打印机
想玩游戏吗？来新车间！Lio用几片木板、一台二手电视、操控杆、若干按钮和自制电路板，做成了一个开源游戏机。
迷你四轴飞行器是由现在高三的孙维泽设计的。它利用四个独立控制的电机作为动力使它能够产生足够的升力让他飞行。通过控制每个电机的不同转速，能够让它产生测滚、俯仰等动作。
Rocket是DFRobot的宣传达人，旨在推广3D打印机及开源硬件。
何琪辰是最早开始玩四轴飞行器的。它利用四个独立控制的电机作为动力使它能够产生足够的升力让他飞行。通过控制每个电机的不同转速，能够让它产生测滚、俯仰等动作。
陈世凯与他的RoboPeak团队 不断研究关于机器人的各种方面。并设计了RoboPeak Mini机器人。
何琪辰用NeuroSky的脑波玩具MindFlex作为采集脑电波的传感器，从人们额头上采集导电信号，并输入Arduino当中，通过Arduino的分析，就能获得脑波中的各个分量，得知人们现在的心理活动状态。目前，项目使用Arduino来控制一个心型LED阵列，当戴上传感器的人专注做某件事情的时候，心型LED会闪动的更快，而注意力分散的时候，就会闪的比较慢。
王伟达设计的药丸测量瓶盖，使用方便，精准控制，节约成本。
Lutz发明的虫虫机器人只需要3个小时就能做出来。它有点怕生，但喜欢跳舞，热爱生命。]]>May 13th, 2013 § 4 comments § permalink
There will be Internet of Things China 2013 Conference & Exhibitionin Shanghai from June 4 to 5. More information about the conference here.
Rob van Kranenburg founded Council, a think tank for the Internet of Things, to bring this latter perspective into the heart of the debates. He is Chair of the Working Group Societal of the IOT Forum, member of the Expert Group on IOT for the European Commission, and Stakeholder Coordinator for IoT-A. Mr. van Kranenburg will travel to Shanghai for IOT 2013 China.
Rob is good friends of both XinCheJian and Xindanwei and we are happy to have him coming to XinCheJian for a night of Internet of Things on June 5th. The event will start at 7pm in XinCheJian (1035 Changle Lu, 2F) featuring these speakers:
The Internet of Things (IoT); imagine a world where everything can be both analogue and digitally approached – reformulates our relationship with objects – things- as well as the objects themselves. Currently we can discern two main blocks of thought on IoT. The first is a reactive framework of ideas and thought that sees IoT as a layer of digital connectivity on top of existing infrastructure and things. This position sees IoT as a manageable set of convergent developments on infrastructure, services, applications and governance tools. It is assumed that, as in the transition from mainframe to Internet some business will fail and new ones will emerge, this will happen within the current governance, currency end business models. The second is a proactive framework of ideas and thought that sees IoT as a severely disruptive convergence that is unmanageable with current tools, as it will change the notion of what data and what noise is from the supply chain on to ‘apps’.

Rockets
夏青，微笑的Rockets，前环境工程师，现DFRobot社区经理，Ham，呼号BG4HTO，从小爱折腾，参加过一次机器人挑战大赛后决定自制机器人。第一次在新车间找到同好，热爱一切可以动手实践的玩意！
Both Lucio and Rockets are working on 3D Printers.

Lucio
Brazilian, Lawyer, MBA, and ex-executive, turned his life on its head, sold his house and bought a sailboat, crossed the Atlantic twice and lived for a year with his wife, three kids and dog at sea, sailing along the coast of Brazil and through the Caribbean Islands. Loves sailing, cycling, movies, practicing Kung Fu and cooking.
Now living in Shanghai, joined the Shanghai Hackspace (XinCheJian) and built the space’s first working DIY 3Dprinter from scratch.

Matthieu Tondeur aka Chromaphase
Actually working on the Daedalus city project. Its a gigantic city robot that carry smarm robot and received real time synchrnization 3D mapping with advanced content. Robots inside robots.
As an artist that is passionated in science and electronic i found my place in Xinchejian. here I can cooperate with people that are from different cultures and expertises. Making stuff that link art and technology is my aim. Also its a good working atmosphere when doing some projects. Always a member is around for help or advise, help you to “make stuff”

Who are you?
Hey y’all, my name is IHan, the geek wannabe. I’m an interaction designer and an amateur cook. You’ll see me in Xinchejian a lot, mainly baking cookies and making Mojitos, not exactly high tech… but one day, it’ll be cookies with edible health monitoring chips and Mojitos with blood alcohol level reader straws;)
I admire people who can make things and I hope if I hang out with the cool gang a lot, I might be able to be just as cool one day;) People are very generous and open here. I’m always inspired to see how XCJ is pushing science and technology to the general public. Shanghai is very lucky to have this group of people and this space, and I’d love to see more people joining the force. Also, I love the culture in XCJ. At work, everything is designed for a reason, so the “making for the sake of making” attitude in XCJ is very liberating.
