As sales of controllers saturated the market and no new game play was developed, revenues for the Guitar Hero franchise declined. Activision closed the Guitar Hero division in February, 2011.
This is the first model of the controller that was produced.

What is your preferred controller type? Hand-held with the 30mm f3.5 (60mm on micro four thirds) manual lens. Ceiling bounce. Must have been a hand-full on such a small body.

These controllers are what I added to the stock machine. On the left you can see two identical PID temperature controllers. What these do is control the heater by determining when to activate the solid state relay that is connected to the PID. When the PID requires the heater to be turned on it energizes the solid state relay (a switch controlled by another protocol...in this case the PID) and it completes the ac circuit to the heaters. These PIDs are accurate to the nearest 1 degree Fahrenheit which is an extreme improvement compared to the stock thermostat. Since this is a dual boiler espresso machine Idecided to use one PID for the brew boiler and the other PID for the steam boiler.
The controller on the right is a digital timer. It basically energizes the built in relay once it is turned on for any duration you set it to. It switches any appliance (ac or dc). I used this for the pump as I would like my espressos to be poured at 26 seconds every time without the need for counting in my head.
Well, it is about design that is less ambitious. Yes, when there is a place for the consumer to step in and change some things, adapt that something for his needs, participate in the process of creation or rather customization of a thing. On practice that “open design” is meant to be friendly to the user, not just in terms of usability but also , or even in the first place, in terms of “hackability” – read the words – the ability of being hacked with good outcomes. “of course”, one may say, – “anything is ‘hackable’, there no unbreakable things.” Yes and no, so far industrial approach to design rarely includes the end-user in the design collective. User is only allowed to be a user, literally, to use the thing. Design for hackability is about allowing and encouraging people to change functions, look and feel, letting non-designers explore new ways of utilizing things, adapt functions and make technologies be what they want them to be.
One of the old definitions of hacking is interacting in playful and exploratory way, as well as enjoying the “intellectual challenge of creatively overcoming or circumventing limitations”.
The general premise behind DIY is that if you do not like the way things are done, then you should do it yourself. DIY culture involves creating your own world inside the dominant (popular) culture, thereby putting power back in the hands of individuals.

Shot for the ODC theme "Hobbies"
Although this is a PS3 pad, for me it represents gaming in general, I'm very much a PC gamer. Although I've had consoles going all the way back to the Atari 2600(yes I am old), FPS games on the PC are where I spent many, many, many, many hours. I was part of an Wolf:ET clan that was ranked #1 in the UK for a while, I have the knackered fingers to prove it too! I also lost more hours(because it's probably whole months) than I care to count to MMO's the original Everquest(or Ever-crack as it was known) , then EQ2 and on, inevitably, to WoW. Addiction at it's finest, but now just a hobby.

The Xbox360 controller is more photogenic than you might think.

Still testing out my new flash and still trying out different lighting setups. I am new to the whole flash game, it is a whole lot of fun!
A prototype reflow oven controller. A Teensy++ 2.0 provides an 8-bit AVR microcontroller to run the control algorithm. Two MAX6675 ICs provide two channels of thermocouple sensor readings. Two solid-state relays allow independent control of two high-power AC loads (the top and bottom heating elements of my toaster oven, in this case).
The whole PID control algorithm and temperature profile reside in and execute on the AVR (all implemented with fixed-point integer math). Still, I've also written a Python/QT GUI program that talks to the AVR (through a USB virtual serial port) and allows for plotting the reflow profile/sensor readings/SSR commands/etc. in real-time as the reflow operation runs.
