Hi everyone,
It's my first post here. I'm the average digital electronic hobbist, and I would
like to share a little piece of mind with you.
I would like to say that what I am looking towards in vmu dev is the posibility
to take the case apart, and possibly the lcd, and plug it in an home-made
embedded project.
It would act like a small industrial automation controller, I mean it got
all the basic pieces of hardware I would want in my designs: a decent 8 bit
CPU, memory, LCD, and some ports pins. With a great software dev system
the possibilities would be endless, (for me ;o) mainly because of its small
size.
So if there's enough people interested, I think it may be a reason for the vmu
dev effort to continue, as it could ease many of us the time-consumming effort
to devellop small interfaces for our home projects.
Examples? Let see :
- A small homemade Lego Mindstorm-like thing,
- Small data logging systems
- All that you can imagine
I would be interested toward implicating myself in the scene, maily in the
electronic field, but I'm able to code some assembly, tough I don't have any
experience coding with the "potato". As you may know, my main language isn't
English (it's French by the way). I live in Quebec, Canada. I've experience
coding with some µcontrollers (mainly AVR and SX).
So if anyone interested, let me know,
