Episode Details

Last year I went on a storm chasing road trip, aiming to capture some photos of lightning. I had a DSLR camera, a microcontroller, some wires, a light sensor and some spare time. How hard could it be to make my own lightning trigger? And would it even work? A beginner-friendly guide to creating electronics with lightning-fast reaction times, and an excuse to share some holiday pics.
