In the Teslaton, DESCON explores how we can use energy more efficiently and tap into energy sources from nature to ensure that energy usage will have a less detrimental impact on the environment. This will have a positive effect in many areas, including agriculture, health, and other life on the planet. Fittingly, this year’s DESCON has teamed up with the Tesla Science Center at Wardenclyffe, taking inspiration from Nikola Tesla’s life and work, which was dedicated to energy and innovation.

You are welcome to bring your own components for the teslaton. Please note that any complete or previous projects will not be considered.

Build your own solar power device
The goal is to make a completely new product that is ready to assemble from scratch. Show how to put it together or how to make a future citizen’s kit. We will provide:

• 2x Huge 6V 6W Solar panel (6.0 Watt)
• 2x 3.8 / 1.3mm or 3.5 / 1.1mm to 5.5 / 2.1mm DC Jack Adapter Cable
• 2x 3.5mm / 1.1mm to 5.5mm / 2.1mm DC Jack Adapter
• 2x USB / DC / Solar Lithium Ion/Polymer charger (v2)
• 3x Arduino Pro Mini 328 - 3.3V/8 MHz
• 15x Photocell (CdS photoresistor)
• 2x Mini Pan-Tilt Kit - Assembled with Micro Servos

This is a continued initiative of DESCON 3.0 + 4.0 and Haklab Belgrade. We have developed a small portable measurement device supported with an electricity plug that all citizens could build at this workshop, install in their environment and connect to an open data network. A 3-hour tutorial on Sunday will train 20 participants as part of the Belgrade Open School, ISOC Serbia and the United Nations Development Programme pilot project “vazduh gradjanima” to build their own DESCON “klimamerko”.

Please register through this link.

We have:
– 2 tutors
– 20 x PM1.0, PM 2.5 and Co2 sensors
– 20 humidity sensors
– 5 x 2.4/Sub-Ghz antennas
– 20 electricity plugs

We are looking for a:
– UX designer to design a cover box
– Security experts to check the security aspects of this device.
