Microchip expands XLP low-power PIC® microcontroller portfolio with integrated hardware encryption engine
Talks and performances by people doing strange things with electricity
Fri 23 March 2012, 6.30-10pm with interval at the Showroom Cinema, Sheffield.
Dorkbot is a meeting of people interested in electric/electronic art in the broadest sense; robotics, kinetic art, microcontrollers, interactive art, algorithmic music, net.art... The only real conditions are that it is a bit strange and involves electricity in some way. It is really defined by whoever turns up, be it engineers who want to be artists, artists who want to be engineers, or the otherwise confused.
This MEGADORK event features a cabaret of talks and performances from among the UK's dorkiest, to entertain and amaze:
Paul Granjon - A strange performance from the world renowned self-styled robot artist.
Patrick Tresset - Talks about his drawing robot Paul (on show as part of the Alan Turing: Intuition and Ingenuity exhibition).
Daniel Jones and James Bulley - talking about generating live music from patterns of weather.

Sarah and Jenny Angliss - playing robot music from past futures.

Sergi Jorda - talks about the Reactable tangible tabletop music playground (which you'll be able to try out at the Central Library Saturday 24 March)
Dan Stowell - Demonstrates his use of the Risset illusion in techno music.
Silicone Bake - Live coded pop songs about love, death and counterfeit watches, where all lyrics are taken from spam emails.
Megadork is curated by Alex McLean.
Dorkbot started in New York, spread to London, and now dozens of cities around the world, including several active UK chapters; Sheffield, Bristol, Anglia, Newcastle, Cardiff and Alba (Scotland). Find out more at: www.dorkbot.org

The inside of the body of our Axial SCX10 Dingo, showing the wiring harness of the ultra-thin enamel wire to the LEDs.
A little demo program that just shows some text, then clears the display and shows a pre-drawn bitmap. The full bit-map memory on the LCD controller is 864 bytes (96x9).
Microchip's MRF89XAM8A (part # AC164138-1) and MRF89XAM9A (part # AC164138-2) PICtail™/PICtail Plus Daughter Boards are expected to be available in Calendar Q3 2010, to enable development of 868 and 915 MHz applications, respectively. These daughter boards plug directly into the Explorer 16 and PIC18 Explorer boards for easy, modular development with hundreds of 8-bit PIC18, 16-bit PIC24 and 32-bit PIC32 MCUs, as well as the dsPIC® DSCs. These tools are available at www.microchip.com/get/9DWX.
Microchip’s certified ZigBee PRO protocol stack provides yet another option for IEEE 802.15.4-based wireless networks using Microchip’s PIC MCUs. The combination of Microchip’s ZigBee PRO stack, the MRF24J40 transceiver radio or transceiver modules, and any of its 16-bit PIC24 MCUs or dsPIC33 DSCs forms Microchip’s ZigBee PRO Compliant Platform, as certified by the ZigBee Alliance.
The slave light controller is housed in a pencil sharpener case in the body of our Axial SCX10 Dingo. The tiny servo is driving the steering wheel for realism.
Note that it must be oriented properly. One of the two pieces of metal inside the LED has two little circles in it; that piece of metal should face to the right, the one without holes to the left. Make sure the legs on top are flat against the top of the wood; there will be a gap between the bottom of the wood and the legs underneath it.
Microchip's MRF89XA transceiver has extremely low receive current of 3 mA for longer battery life in 868, 915 and 950 MHz Sub-GHz wireless networks. For additional information, please visit Microchip’s online Wireless Design Center at www.microchip.com/get/D2C7.
Sanguino is an open source Arduino-compatible microcontroller board that is based on the Arduino, and inspired by the Boarduino form-factor. It uses the atmega644P chip which has 4x the memory, ram and 12 more GPIO pins than the Arduino's atmega168.

Yet another side project; A while back I designed PCBs for a relatively simple persistence of vision top; This is the top board, with the microcontroller and some sensors.
these boards were sent out to Laen a while back, should be coming back any day now.
Pixel VGA, version 1 (Floor Cluster) - Garnet Hertz
Two dozen old computer monitors occupy the center of a gallery floor in a cluster facing the wall. Each screen is controlled with custom electronics to create pulsating and strobing patterns, casting a colored wash across the darkened gallery.
Dimensions: Variable (approx 3m x 3m). VGA monitors, custom electronics. 2011.

David presents an interfacing Arduino and Adobe Flash. Dorkbot crowd makes up a quick game called "Busy Proctologist" using some craft items, a pressure sensor, and the goatse image.
The crowd concluded after finding a latex glove, a styrofoam ring, some bubblewrap, and some red and brown felt, and a pressure sensor that the game would be called "Busy Proctologist."
Gameplay involves "examining" as many patients in the day as possible (measure by a 1 minute timer in Flash) without causing undue discomfort during the rectal exam (exceeding a moderate pressure range measured by the sensor and arduino.)
Two Nikon SB800 flash units controlled by an Arduino microcontroller. Triggered by a piezo sensor on the air gun.

Microchip Technology Inc., a leading provider of microcontroller, analog and Flash-IP solutions, today announced the expansion of its RF power amplifier portfolio, with the addition of the new SST12LP17E and SST12LP18E devices. The SST12LP18E is a lower-cost, lower-voltage alternative to Microchip’s popular SST12LP14E power amp.
The finished LED daughter board. The left-hand end of the header plug has been cut off so that it'll fit the DIN 41612 connector on the AVR motherboard.

This is an ARM board that I got for free. No idea what I'll do with it, long term, but it packs significantly more punch than an Arduino.
Currently investigating the wild world of toolchains (this is invaluable for OS X). Once I can compile and upload the sample apps, how about getting an RTOS running on it?
