Yeah, thanks Dan. Here,s a description of the photos of
my gear:
1a) My home control application running on the jacket
with output to the 6.4" LCD. Unfortunately it was
still loading when the photo was taken. It should
show sensor readings and a camera image when
finished loading.
1b) The tackball mouse. Looks like I am holding it
upside down in this shot. The other side has the
trackball and mouse buttons.
1c) Some of the guts of the jacket. You can see the
sleeve display and cuff keypad top center. In
the middle is the driver module for the VFD
display. Left of that is the mighty mite carrier
board, right of that is the ricochet modem. Top
left is the 6.4" LCD. Top right is the unit
containing microcontrollers, power supply, GPS
and accelerometers.
1d) Me with bags under my eyes as predicted :)
2b) Sleeve display (matrix-orbital 4x20 VFD)
2c) Opening the lining to reach the microcontroller
case.
2d) This is Dave's Seiko G8 QVGA display eval kit.
Bad photo of what looks like a nice display.
3a) Can you tell I'm packing hardware? The only
revealing thing is the power cord.
3b) Another view of the sleeve display/keypad.
3d) This is my GPS receiver (top left) with TTL
serial connection to BasicX microconrollers
(top right). ADXL202 accelerometer eval
board (middle bottom) also connects to the
Basicx, Linear Technologies power supply
(bottom right) powers everything in the
wearable.
4a) Closeup of accelerometer board and power
supply.
4b) Closeup of GPS receiver (Motorola Oncore)
and microcontroller switching circuit.
Note that the circuit is still not complete
for switching multile RS232 devices, needs
another ICL232CPE chip and a bunch of
capacitors.
4c) Another view of the GPS etc.
4d) CardPC in its Might Mite carrier board.
Under the Mighty Mite is an Intelec dual
PCMCIA card reader module. Platic enclosure
was $8 at frys electronics. Used a chisel
to customize it.
5a) Closeup of CardPC. This is a 166 Mhz with
64 MB RAM. No fan needed for this clock
speed.
5b) This is the Palmax laptop, with Ricochet
modem atteched with Velcro, and Rangelan2
wireless modem in the PCMCIA slot.
5c) Another view of the 6.4" LCD (booting the
jacket).
5d) Jacket sleeve display with menu displayed.
Hard to read but the lines on the display
read "devices, monitoring, control, tools".
You can see the LEDs below the display.
6.4" LCD in the background.
6a-c) More views of sleeve and LCD displays.
Thanks Dan.
