Who is "Azurous"


I'm "Azurous", I'm a 17 Year old born and raised in Australia, from a young age I had a very large interest in Electronics, Coding and Computer parts. My Father helped that ember grow into a flame by showing me around computers, This flame so to speak has motivated me to keep going with projects such as the "Azurous" Project, Learning to Code in new languages, Learning to design custom PCB's, Hardware testing, Developing a custom ESP32 Based Device to eventually compete with the gadgets that poured gas on My interest in the extremely portable devices that are now readily available to find out what their really capable of, My first "Hacking" tool was the M5StickC+ 2 That sparked an interest in making Custom PCB's for the addons people frequently made. I saw how people were using these modules and I saw an opportunity to create something that makes these really cool Devices more accessible and more convienent to the masses and I took it, Over the next 4 days I was going to school, Running All nighters one after another just to fix the designs It was always this "Last Trace before I go to sleep" and that turned into me realising I only had 20 minutes to get ready for school, I'm extremely grateful for my family helping me keep these interests alive because if it weren't for them Project "Azurous", Project "Dionysus" or Project "Kronos" wouldn't exist.

Early Life

I'm aware that I'm only 17, I don't have a large insight on what life really is so for me to say my "Childhood" was anything other than ongoing is going to seem like an exaggeration, From ages 4-10 I was very interested in how Computers worked, Wether that be how the traces made what I was looking at possible or how we tricked rocks into thinking, There was always a strong interest in something Electronic and an "Unnatural" desire to figure it out no matter what I had to do, This lead to me getting into trouble repeatedly with my IT Teacher for messing with his work wether that be his Firewall or shouting out at him the answer when he couldn't Come up with the word he was looking for, I was banned from learning with the Arduino's and Sphero's, Which just made me want to improve constantly because what I saw as doubt fueled me to prove a point, You'll learn rather quickly that Doubt, The Odds being stacked against me and other factors that dont work in my favour have only so far motivated me to keep pushing towards greatness.

Teen Life

Around age 11 I ended up moving two hours from where I grew up, Not having contact with my old school buddies and having to start my social life all over again effected me quite harshly, I ended up getting involved in the "wrong crowds" Making bad decisions and at age 15 I got placed on what we in australia call a "Police Issued Caution" these last for 6 Months each and I got given two of them, the way cautions work from my understanding is if you're caught doing any illegal activity charges will be pressed and you'll be tried for the "Cautioned" Charges aswell as the new ones, This made me Paranoid to leave the house because I would react to hostility with aggression, wether that be verbal or physical I don't look back at those times fondly, I have grown so much as a person and I am eternally Proud of myself for doing such a thing at the age I was, There's still an extremely large space for me to improve myself further I will admit that, although I refuse to discredit my progress just because there's further to go.

Now and Plans for the future

I plan on developing Project "Dionysus" which will be an ESP32 Based device with ample features built in, aswell as a large amount of modifiability, This is set to have an In Hand Model as an SMT (Soldered Module Tool) by April 18th 2025 with it's own custom firmware. for the first batch (5-50) the device will be made and shipped with a Board and Modules Soldered on rather than built into the board, I plan on making a SOC version By the end of 2025.
