XBee Solenoid Controller
This Solenoid controller has been filled with a ton of small successes. Today I'm chalking up one more success to the list. I've got the XBee portion of the controller working. I had been working on this for a long time now, and the more I work on it the ...
A Simple redesign
If you can’t explain it simply, you don’t understand it.
-- Albert Einstein
The big issue I was having with the Solenoids was too much pressure. So while on a trip to Sudbury my Stepfather and I redesigned it. Well, I just told him what I was thinking of doing, and he ...
Three20 TTTableViewController commitEditingStyle
This post is mostly for my future reference. I found the documentation of the TTTableViewController's commitEditingStyle to be lacking. Some of the comments on StackOverflow provide the right answer, but the code wasn't posted so I struggled for a bit. Below is an example of the version I managed to ...
TGIMBOEJ
The Great Internet Migratory Box of Electronics Junk (TGIMBOEJ) is a box. It's a box that arrives on your doorstep after you drop your name on a wiki page and wait a good deal of time. It's a box that has electronics junk inside and it works off the premise ...
Power Monitor Packet
As Hugo helpfully commented in a previous post, here is the link to the Power Monitor Patent. The specific page I'm linking to is the Packet model. Lots of reading to do here, but its pretty interesting.
One of the things I find most interesting about this patent is the citations ...
Building a Scooter Bike for Kids
Ages ago I bookmarked a design posted on Make for a Scooter Bike, as I intended on building one when my daughter got old enough. On a recent trip to the surplus store I picked up a wheelset for $3 and figured what better time to start than now. I ...
Arduino Packet Analyzer
Following the previous success where we managed to see the transmissions from the Black & Decker Power Monitor, Andrew Kilpatrick and I went about trying to capture the packets. Without an access to an oscilloscope with packet capture capabilities we built our own with an Arduino.
Essentially, the code waits for ...
