| − | == Concept ==
| |
| − | Mitch Altman proposed a Global Hackerspace Challenge and PS:One accepted. We proposed the construction of an array of biosensors which could be used
| |
| − | in a secondary school or college setting as an educational and experimental tool. The array will collect data from various sensors attached to
| |
| − | the test subject's body and then make that data available to the experimenter. The project will use as many COTS parts as possible. The terms
| |
| − | of the Challenge require that it use a microcontroller and a "portable power source".

| |
| − | | |
| − | For my part, I've been re-building my development environment for
| |
| − | Python and Qt on the Nokia N900 mobile device. I've also been
| |
| − | reading through "Building wireless sensor networks" by Robert
| |
| − | Faludi, to get an idea of the wireless options available to us.
| |
| − | | |
| − | === Drew Fustini ===
| |
| − |
| |
| − | | |
| − | Will be setting up dev environment for N900 along with Bill & started
| |
| − | reviewing the wireless sensor book as well. I wasn't able to attend
| |
| − | the first group discussion but plan to be at the space for discussion
| |
| − | after the Mar-22 weekly meeting. I'd like to talk with Eric & Phil about
| |
| − | the microcontroller selection as I'm interested in that as well as the
| |
| − | mobile aspect.
