Hello friends,


the video I was working on for so long is finally finished. I hope you enjoy watching it. It's a little anticlimactic but it's a journey.

It's uploaded with ads turned off until public release. Next time it mention on a VLOG that I'm making something bigger.. please stop me.

I get to bed now and take care of the cover, description, links etc. later
If you have suggestions regarding a snappy video title and video cover ideas I would be grateful!


Thanks for your patience and your great support!

Unspoken Tech Made my Fancy DIY Sonar

Phased arrays are out daily drivers. Yet they don't get the attention they deserve. These practical experiments will convey the physics in a playful manner. The result is a real sonar scanner. Cool!

Curious project man! I'm only of ping pong ball level intelligence! I think your intro nailed the title and thumbnail. "Starlink, ultrasounds and stone skipping? DIY directional sonar." And montage the three with a question mark in the thumbnail

Thanks Garteh. I personally hate questions in titles and refuse to click those videos. But I might not be the average YT consumer. Tried different covers now and the real-time data supports the current cover the most. I'm only trying to change the title and words a bit. My first artsy cover tanked my click-trough rate the first day.. that's a bummer. I need to stick to goofy faces and sensational words to protect my work from going under. I'll try your title in the next iteration.

Yes, this has so many sides to it. I finally understand phased arays - cool!
