Gumstix Microcontroller

Gumstix Microcontroller 01/29/2004 02:47 AM
A couple of readers have submitted links to gumstix, a homebrew microcontroller based on the Intel PXA255 XScale CPU. The board is 20mm x 80mm, has 64MB SDRAM, 4MB of Flash, draws 200ma at 3.6-5v and runs Linux. At present, the site only has a brief description and a photo but it sounds like the creator may be releasing the design as Open Hardware soon. Slashdot also carried a story on the gumstix board today.

Functional Antique

Functional Antique 03/06/2004 01:55 AM

We drove through Arizona, Utah and Southern California for our honeymoon a few years ago and I took most of the photos of the Grand Canyon and Monument Valley on Kodachrome film. The lab made a mistake in the processing and only gave me the slides instead of including a photo CD with them. They refused to correct the error and I didn't have a projector so I've never gotten to get a good look at them. Since then the boxes of slides have sat in a container that I occasionally pass and remind myself that I should do something about the slides. By chance I noticed an old Leica Pradovit projector on eBay and bid on it. I lost that auction but I kept looking now and then and finally nabbed one. It is as simple and as elegant as a slide projector can get and certainly all that I need for the occasional viewing of slides at home. It's a Leitz Prado SM-300 from the late 1950s and 1960s with a solid lens and tough bakelite body. Instead of €250 or more for a projector with more electronics than my laptop, this was only £20 and will likely outlast most of the new ones that require service instead of a hammer or a pair of pliers. :)

The only problem with the projector was that the seller likely picked it up at a local boot sale without checking the parts or knowing the slightest thing about shipping things that contain glass. Fortunately, all of the optics survived the trip, but the bulb was not so lucky. Removing the old bulb was an exercise in patience since the socket is unusual and flanged. I had to use a leatherman to carefully go down into the socket and ease up one of the flange guides that had been bent which made the removal of the bulb impossible. I took the bulb's ID number, started searching on the net and only found one place that had them in stock and they were €150 each. For a cheap old projector, this was likely not an economical solution. I needed to go by EP-Kamera to see if I could get a lens cap for the leica anyway, so I thought I'd take a chance and ask if they had a bulb. The gentleman who owns the shop immediately recognised it and was able to order 2 of them for €20 each for me. It reminded me of why the internet sucks for buying things that require some level of expertise in the seller. I had forgotten how nice it is to have a shop like the electronic parts place my father used to take me to where the owners knew their business and loved what they did. Now we have a working projector and I promise not to torture the family with captive slide shows at dinnertime. :)

Subvocalization mic functional prototype

Subvocalization mic functional prototype 04/10/2005 05:51 AM
Cory Doctorow: A conceit in my novel Down and Out in the Magic Kingdom is that our cellphones will disappear into our bodies, silently feeding us audio via cochlear implants and micing our throats to pick up sub-vocalizations (something I think I ripped off from Harry Harrison, though others have done it too). Now a DARPA program has produced a functional prototype of a subvocal pickup that can turn words you haven't spoken into signals on the wire.

One system, being developed for DARPA by Rick Brown of Worcester Polytechnic Institute in Massachusetts, relies on a sensor worn around the neck called a tuned electromagnetic resonator collar (TERC). Using sensing techniques developed for magnetic resonance imaging, the collar detects changes in capacitance caused by movement of the vocal cords, and is designed to allow speech to be heard above loud background noise.

DARPA is also pursuing an approach first developed at NASA's Ames lab, which involves placing electrodes called electromyographic sensors on the neck, to detect changes in impedance during speech. A neural network processes the data and identifies the pattern of words. The sensor can even detect subvocal or silent speech. The speech pattern is sent to a computerised voice generator that recreates the speaker's words.

The impotence of functional programming

The impotence of functional programming 01/07/2004 04:57 PM
Context - XML's gift to the world (and the impotence of numbers). Hierarchies are a great modelling tool. Why? Because (a) they map well onto the way our heads manage complexity and (b) they allow us to model context. We can put things within other things and nuance the semantics of the contained by means of the container and the container's container and so on. ?

XSLT: Taming a functional language 05/06/2004 11:28 AM
If you're coming from a different programming background, one feature of XSLT (all versions) may seem especially difficult to grasp. I'm not referring to the XML-based syntax; once you get a feel for it, it is surprisingly transparent (even if bulky). For many novices, much more puzzling is XSLT's lack of an assignment operator. (Note for C-literate readers: "=" in XPath always means comparison, never assignment.)

Detractors from the idea of Copyleft Content often point to the fact that non-software expression is not functional in the same way that software is, and therefore doesn't need the same user-maintenance mechanics that software does. Oh, well, except software documentation. But that's it, right? Is any other type of non-software information functional? Perhaps Wikitravel is.
