This is my pods project at BM. Hopefully there is other documentation out there, as I got none.

Nice Work Randy!

And it comes with a thesis paper!  http://2uptech.com/intimate_control/

This guys work is great.  I need to look into getting some of these myolectric sensors.  Maybe the artificial limbs factory on Vashon is a good place to research this stuff…  I’ll keep you posted, in the meantime enjoy Daito Manabe!

Things I’ve noticed about myself that seem a little weird or counter-productive.

I worry about losing or even worse missing out on any of the discussions in the technical lists I am subscribed to, especially ones I read regularly. ie. max-msp, jitter.  I really shouldn’t care, and maybe should stop reading them so much.  Instead go to them when I want to help the community, or when I need a specific thing, but quit worrying about the newest ideas and/or solutions passing me by.

For all you clever students that managed to find this post it is a place holder.  Would be nice to know if you can comment on it.  You might have to register as I received a lot of spam.  If one student comments then I will be sure to update this with useful info and interesting links before Friday.  Thank you!  It was a pleasure sharing with you.

As you can see by the fact that my last post was over a year ago.  This blog thing has yet to capture my attention as a writer.

I just re-checked-out these guys out:http://naoism.com/I got to hang out with these guys when they were in Seattle about 5 years ago.  There stuff is really slick.  What impressed me most about them though, was that I saw them as hosts to part of a film festival or something.  For there first set they just played videos that they collected around the world by the people that they thought were the best in the visual-music field.  That stuff was incredible.

I put videos I create on Vimeo. You can see my profile.

Basically I have tried silicone vs glue in that order from left to right on the metal mounting unit. Gorrila Glue worked far better than silicone, but I need to make something better for laying the glue and clamping the LEDs.  I also am comparing three different LEDs. There is a 50deg version of all of these that might be better. The specs are…

• model WP7113F3C (20) — This is the freq. for Wii controllers compare to recomended radioshack part # 276-143
  • 940nm
  • 20 degrees – I need to confirm that my LEDs truly match this spec.
  • 1.2-1.6V
  •  current?-
    • Results of experiments-  The unibrain doesn’t see this as well in general, I am going to try it with the wiimote as it might be better than the actual.

• model WP7113SF6C
  • 860nm
  • 20 degrees 
  • 1.35-1.6V
  • Current? max 50mz? So a 16-20ma resistor is good
  •  test result – this is the best thru the bandpass filter
  • -I believe these are the ones I used in the mount I made with Ben

• model WP7113SF7C  (10)- (I believe these are the ones I still have clustered to the board.)
  • 20 degrees 
  • 850nm
  • 1.4-1.6V
  • Current?
• IR-Cutoff Filter
  • specs
• Band Pass filter
  • specs

I should put relevant media here.
