sweet thx! added myself in

Umm.. ok. number 4 go!

I have no idea. Apparently I'm supposed to start now, but I'll have to do that when I'm more well rested. 2.5 hours of sleep last night. I'm not doing too great right now, and my mom's making me help with a bunch of stuff around the house. I just want to collapse. I'll get to it when I'm able.

^you could have written THAT down THERE. Just sayin'.

Passing it to snips. Rolled a 3.

http://www.facebook.com/l.php?u=http%3A ... QFzAsjJthe current part. I'm waiting on Snips edit. Just so we're clear on this, my writing is an exaggerated train of thought in that excerpt. I wrote it to intentionally blow out of proportion things that I was actually feeling. I intend to use this writing to experiment with things like that, during the course of the book.

I am looking for a technical collaborator to work on a not-for-profit project involving a multiplexed robot for classroom use. Up to "n" pupils using RPIs (or whatever) may share switched access to the robot. (Where "n" is probably 32!)

The project involves a lot more than the robot but it is the hardware side I need help with. The robot nuts and bolts have been designed and we are arranging manufacture.

The current controller PCB side has reached prototype stage using USB as a connection.

The next stage is to go wireless and I want to keep the costs down - so I don't want to use an off-the-shelf plug-in board, I want to put whatever ICs are required directly onto the controller board which uses a pretty meaty Atmel ATMega256A3U.

I am open to suggestions about the technology to be used - Bluetooth springs to mind but Bluetooth gadgets do not pair at lightening speed - to say the least!

I had considered using the ICs in wireless mice/keyboards but there is probably something better or more appropriate. Broadcom probably make something suitable so if any of the RPi team read this ....

We have in-house programming skills so the software side is no problem - though we don't want to reinvent the wheel and write our own stack. We just want a simple, fairly fast (but not OTT), data link between the pupil's PC and the controller card. We have no problem developing our own comms protocol and command set if necessary.

Anyone with RF experience keen to help? No money in it (except expenses) but lots of brownie points.

Wow, that's a complex spam bot. If it weren't for the signature, I'd have thought it was a real post, interrupting my thread.

Dr. Sherman is up.

update?

sorry! got caught up over the weeknd. i'm on it rght now

..annnnd done!

so which list are we going by? the one posted in the thread or on the sync website?
and why aren't we just writing in there? (just curious)

anyhoo, i rolled a 6, which would either be Adoom, or me again

we're going by the sync list. http://sync.in/9TyBrqqzal
people can still join in. just write yourself down there.

and we should really like, make a fb group or something so we can coordinate more easily.

cool. i rolled again, got a 4.

MAZ is up!

sent him a PM w/ the file
