			The 2016 Open Hardware MiniConf build project is ESPlant, a solar-powered, WiFi-connected environmental sensing platform based around the ESP8266 microcontroller. Designed originally for gardening or weather tracking sensors, as an open design the ESPlant can be adapted to many other uses!

			This year's Open Hardware MiniConf does not include soldering. The boards have been pre-soldered. In the workshop we will be assembling them, provisioning them, and learning to use the Arduino IDE to program and customise them, and connect them to the internet.

			Board Features
			* Powered via battery, USB, or from an included solar panel.
			* Programming and communications via integrated USB serial port.
			* Removable Lithium-Ion battery, automatic charging circuit.
			* Onboard sensors: BME280 digital temperature, humidity, and barometric pressure sensor. ADXL345 digital accelerometer.
			* Offboard sensors are also provided - external temperature, PIR motion, ultraviolet light level, and dual soil moisture probes. There is also provision to connect a string of WS2812B RGB LEDs (a ring of which are included).
			* There are also breakout pin connections for other I/O pins, to add your own hardware functionality.

			The cost is $88AUD including $8 GST. This covers the price of the ESPlant board and all of the included external parts (including solar panel, battery, and the sensors mentioned above)

			=== Josh Stewart: Open source car engine management ===

			Open source car engine management project (hardware and software). Covering hardware design experiences and a project update.

			=== Alistair D'Silva: LinuxCNC for fun and profit (now with deadly lasers) ===

			This talk will cover the basics of converting a Cartesian robot to LinuxCNC, and some of the pitfalls (and fire traps !) encountered.

			=== Sebastian Holzapfel: Hardware projects using eChronos & lwIP: toward high-assurance IoT ===

			What eChronos & lwIP (both open-source) are; why they should be considered for embedded projects (including a brief tutorial-like demonstration of the RTOS & TCP/IP stack), porting lwIP to this RTOS and porting the RTOS to this hardware platform (TI Connected Launchpad). The second half will be a few hardware demos on the platform:
			* An IoT light controller that makes everyone in the office annoyed if builds fail.
			* A telnet-controlled echo server that makes it easy to test wierd hardware devices before they can connect to the internet.
			* An HTTP server that responds to sensor inputs by displaying them on a webpage.

			=== Peter Hardy: Kerbal Space Program simulator hardware controller and display ===

			The talk I'd like to give is a presentation of a fairly large project I've been working on. I've built a custom hardware controller and display interface for a proprietary spaceflight simulator, Kerbal Space Program. It's a pretty big project involving two arduino microcontrollers, and all sorts of input and output devices. There's a full picture gallery of my build at http://imgur.com/a/o2yh0.
