Wii cam project continues

May 19 1:05pm

Although I just finished up the semester I’m not ready to move on quite yet from the infrared motion tracking project started earlier this year for a senior embedded design class. In fact, most of what I want to do remains to be done.

My plans include:

• making knowledge learned freely available online with schematics, build instructions, demonstration software
• further engineering of circuit with custom PCB and enclosure, and software layer so any program can use tracking data
• explore the production and sale of a larger number of kits or (inclusive OR) assembled devices

That’s actually a lot of work so be patient, it could take a few weeks to figure it all out during my summer break. Tentatively I would expect by June 15th to have every little detail worked out. I may regret saying that, but I’m optimistic in general and optimistic knowing that I can get it at least working acceptably, having done so already. So stay tuned as I’ll be doing a lot of work on this and frequently updating my loyal readers on my progress.
