The AI camera frame has been mounted to the Arrayen Suzuki Jimny and we’re all very happy with the result. The guys have sent over some pics for me to share with you and have reported that it is rigid and strong which has inspired confidence in its ability to keep the very expensive 360° […]

My friends at Arrayen who do infrastructure monitoring using AI have asked me design a custom frame for their 360° camera. You may have seen the first post where we came up with a simple fix for the cheap frame that they already had for the camera. Well it turns out that that frame is a

Some friends of mine have started a company that uses AI and machine learning to monitor infrastructure for their clients. Their company, Arrayen, have scored a contract that requires the monitoring of road infrastructure and so a new 360° camera was acquired for the job, similar to the one Google use for their Street View app.

This was an interesting job I did a few years ago that I thought I’d share. I met a guy who had just acquired an AW11 Toyota MR2 that already had a turbo conversion. He planned to use it for rally racing and wanted to upgrade the existing turbo to a larger unit. The problem

If you’ve read our previous blog entry on making parts for this car, you’ll know how I feel about the price of its replacement parts. Our customer isn’t a fan either so he’s commissioned us to create more parts for him. The air filters are past their use by date so the idea was to

After upgrading the front dashcam to a 4K unit, the old dashcam sat collecting dust. Since the bracket it had was designed for a sloping windscreen it wasn’t able to be used in the vertical rear window of the Lannix Design Holden Colorado. This became a great opportunity to come up with a custom bracket

Parts for the Audi R8 are not cheap. Seemingly innocuous parts like a plastic duct that sits inside an air diffuser can do quite some harm to the wallet if you pay the price that Audi are asking. I believe their motto for this car is ‘come up with a reasonable price then add a

The first prototype part for our offshoot business collaboration, R-Spec, has been designed and 3D printed using the 3D scans we produced a few weeks ago. My business partner Michael has had this Ford Ranger part in mind for quite some time and has already produced a few parts for his Ranger in his garage

Those people who subscribe to our newsletter will have seen a sneak preview last month of what we’ve been up to with the 3D scanner. My old friend Michael and I have been interested in creating our own parts for our cars and so we’ve decided to have a go at building a business from

Lannix Design has recently purchased a 3D scanner which we hope will become a useful tool to complement our existing CAD and 3D printing services. We’ve been working out how to best optimize lighting conditions when scanning to obtain accurate results. So far it seems that dark and featureless surfaces are not ideal! Using brightly
