A small sample of my work - check out my Instagram feed for the most recent events: @nickrobertsgb
About half my work is live video engineering for conferences, concerts and exhibitions, and the rest is custom-built hardware and software solutions.
If you're reading this you'll probably already know what's involved in conference work, so I'll skip that bit. Here's some examples of the custom-built stuff:
Video and lighting control systems for the Alpine F1 garage, including race engineer integrations, and the most famous curfew timer in F1.
Using the Portl (now called Proto) hologram system to allow fans to play FIFA with their idols over the internet.
Using an OpenReach FTTP connection to send multiple video, data and audio feeds between an airplane, an airport and a house in Harrow.
Crypto activation event in NYC where NFT owners could see and interact with their custom character using RFID scanning. Biggest win: custom-built space invaders!
The latest in a series of brand activations for Nike Dubai. Users can build a custom audio track with associated real-time visuals, then publish and share it via QR code and a custom microsite service.
This list changes a lot and I'm not very good at keeping the logos up-to-date.
- OSCPoint - an OSC API for Microsoft PowerPoint, with associated Bitfocus Companion module
- https://vmixapi.com - the unofficial vMix API documentation
- https://github.com/phuvf/wireless_artnet_led_controller - a WiFi enabled LED controller using an ESP32 controller.
- https://github.com/phuvf/ismyportfolioscrewed - a quick & dirty calcuator to help UK landlords with tax changes (from 2016, now obsolete)
