Heatsink performance analysis on Pandaboard

Within our research collaboration with Aectir we made an application to select the % CPU load an monitor the temperature of the Pandaboard's OMAP4430.

Arduino Roomba Wishield

Last week we experimented with the iRobot Create Open Interface platform as part of our collaboration with Golan Levin and his GML to Roomba project (see other GML related projects), at the CMU STUDIO for Creative Inquiry, Pittsburgh, with the following people involved:

Golan Levin: GML parsing; project management.
David Sanz Kirbis: Arduino development and wireless protocols.
Paul Miller: Processing software and robot control.
Evan Roth and Matthew Gray: Instigation.

Symet+micro camera

After some time modifying the design and testing with various combinations of components, we present our version of symet with built-in micro camera. This experimental video device is a solar junkbot to call serendipity in the video shots. Subliminal video stream is going to be analyzed by OpenCV to extract meaningful images and make new assemblies.
