kanzure"Have room for a rhino? South Africa is selling 200 of them to protect animals from poachers" guys do we have rhino projects10:36
justanotheruserrhinos seem like an awesome wealth symbol10:37
justanotheruserThere's only 200 of them, it's like living versace10:37
kanzurehm10:39
justanotheruserMaybe we should let a large corporation breed rhinos so they can sell their horns. Just require them to have 10 living rhinos at all times10:41
kanzurekinda small population don't you think?10:41
justanotheruserthey could swap their rhinos with some in the wild every 2 generations10:42
kanzureunfortunately the morons in charge of things decided to make it illegal to sell any elephant ivory (even from elephants grown in captivity)10:42
kanzureso the only way to get fresh elephant ivory is to poach the wild elephants10:42
justanotheruseryeah, it may be better just to give an incentive to create more elephants10:43

ParahSailinwell, chinese mysticism works by sympathetic magic rules, not science11:28
ParahSailinso unless your dish has the property of being extremely virile and robust, then dish-grown horn is useless11:28
cluckjhmm11:28
cluckjmaybe grow rhino dick and horn in the same dish?11:28
ParahSailinif you want one that you can make in a dish, maybe try bear bile11:29

andytoshihas anyone tried to give octopii exoskeletons and teach them to walk?14:49
andytoshi(this is sorta a continuation of a convo on -wizards from several hours ago)14:49
kanzureandytoshi: http://fennetic.net/irc/Neofin-thumb.jpg14:50
kanzuregenerally not that many people have worked with octopus14:51
kanzurea somewhat neglected species14:51
andytoshihmm, dolphins then .. i'm guessing because that's CGI and not a photo nobody built that thing14:53

andytoshiso cool14:59
kanzuresince you can see their brain size while they are in eggs you can do directed evolution experiments where you choose octopus with larger brains14:59
kanzureyou just shine a flash light through the egg and you see everything14:59
nmz787_iandytoshi: why exoskeletons, rather than endo?15:06
andytoshinmz787_i: easier to install15:08
kanzurewater maintenance requirements would be brutal15:09
kanzurenot impossible, but would require lot of equipment to be cleverly installed.... somewhere...15:09

kanzureany paper that has some math in it, just modify it a little bit- add some wrong constants, symbols not referenced in the paper, etc.16:39
kanzurethis could be done automatically on the fly16:39

andytoshinmz787_i: i was thinking we'd build exoskeletons and wire them into the octopus nerves when they were babies or something (and yes, it occured to me how hard water maintenance would be)16:45
andytoshibut yes, presuming they learned to communicate and build stuff like the rest of us, we would have to afford them rights16:45
nmz787_ioh, I always just assume GMO :)16:45
kanzureandytoshi: you would just communicate visually or by touch, instead of surgery16:46
kanzureso basically: aquarium + wheels16:47
nmz787_iwhat's the point of learning to walk if they still need water?16:48
nmz787_iI think andytoshi was talking about wiring up the exoskeleton for the octopu16:48

justanotheruserthats actually about an order of magnitude less than my guess19:06
kanzureof course, these aren't anywhere near $100k in parts19:06
kanzurethis is ebay, so it's probably used or something19:07
kanzurecompanies are probably paying >$1M or something silly (support, service, maintenance, repairs, insurance, training, ....)19:07

justanotheruserbut I can't pay $180k for one :P19:07
kanzureright, if you go through life paying $1M for every piece of equipment, you run out of money pretty uqick19:08
kanzureso really the right way to do this is to just bootstrap your own ability to make these machines yourself19:08
kanzurea good machine shop is not going to cost you millions of bucks to make19:08

kanzurehe might remember19:14
nmz787any ideas on how to increase user-base/community/usage of www.takeitapart.com ?19:15
nmz787so far most inquiries have been regarding in-real-life support, usually of groups of kids, for taking stuff apart19:16
kanzurepay some security people (people that do reverse engineering magic) to write (exclusive) blog posts19:17
kanzureer by exclusive i mean they wont paste their content on their own blog19:18
kanzurei mean, they won't strip the references to takeitapart.com19:18
kanzurefor reference go look at the upverter blog or something, i don't know19:19
kanzureor the octopart blog19:19
cluckjhas anyone in here run a wixel off of usb-otg?19:22
justanotheruserkanzure: fenn followed that exactly?19:23
kanzurei don't remember the details, but i'm pretty sure he has put a lot of thought into answering that exact question ("how do i get this stuff?")19:25
nmz787cluckj: have you seen the esp8266?19:28
cluckjno19:29
nmz787$5 wifi module with MCU19:29
cluckjthe hack right now is set up for a particular BLE module19:29
cluckjsweet19:29
nmz787I am working on an nRF8001 now19:29
nmz787for BLE19:29
cluckjI need to locate the developer19:30
nmz787I was also looking at the lbm313, which is just a packaged TI CC254019:30
nmz787it also has an MCU19:30
nmz787but being a TI MCU... it is a major PITA to use19:30
nmz787so most people end up hooking an arduino up to it19:30
nmz787such a horrific computer tragedy19:30
nmz787but I guess TI is mostly responsible19:31
cluckjthat esp8266 is low enough power to run off the wixel19:31
cluckjbut if the wixel can run off of usb-otg, it doesn't need bluetooth19:33
cluckjthe hack is basically a translator into bluetooth for a wireless signal put off by the implanted glucose sensor19:35
nmz787hmm?19:35
nmz787so the sensor doesn't speak bluetooth19:36
nmz787?19:36
cluckjhttps://github.com/StephenBlackWasAlreadyTaken/DexDrip19:36
nmz787oh, I was just there but didn't look closely19:36
cluckjnot yet, the next generation sensor will....but who knows when that will happen (thanks FDA)19:36
nmz787https://github.com/StephenBlackWasAlreadyTaken/DexDrip/blob/gh-pages/hardware_setup.md19:37
cluckjyes19:37
nmz787so the wixel doesn't seem to do bluetooth19:37
nmz787just general 2.4GHz19:38
cluckjyes19:38
cluckjthe sensor transmits at some subfrequencies in 2.4Ghz19:38
nmz787can you tell if they are the same as on the nrf2401?19:38
nmz787cause if so... you will save a lot of headache probably to just mash this up http://playground.arduino.cc/InterfacingWithHardware/Nrf240119:39
cluckjprobably19:39
nmz787maybe I'm wrong, but this seems to be the main wixel code loop https://github.com/StephenBlackWasAlreadyTaken/wixel-DexDrip/blob/master/apps/dexdrip/dexdrip.c#L34819:40
nmz787print_packet(&Pkt); is my guess for what sends it out the bluetooth19:40
cluckj2.424999877 Ghz, 2.4499936677 Ghz, 2.474737539 Ghz, 2.477236919 Ghz, according to the manual19:40
cluckjthe nrf2401 doesn't have a microcontroller on it, and the wixel doesn't have BT on it19:42
cluckjhah19:42
nmz787yeah19:42
nmz787but an arduino mini goes for $2 on aliexpress, $10 sparkfun19:42
cluckja different BT transceiver would definitely make it smaller and lower powered19:43
nmz787and nordic makes the nrf8001 ble module19:43
cluckjtrue19:43
nmz787I have two in front of me now... haven't powered them up yet19:43
nmz787I paid $18 on ebay and $20 from adafruit19:43
nmz787aliexpress has them for $519:44
cluckjnice19:44
nmz787and also that esp8266 is $5, if you'd like wifi data instead19:44
nmz787heh19:44
nmz787checkmybloodsugarlevel.com19:44
cluckjthe wifi on the phone will only connect to one thing at a time19:44
-!- CheckDavid [uid14990@gateway/web/irccloud.com/x-hjtahpdlnafobgep] has quit [Quit: Connection closed for inactivity]19:44
nmz787yeah19:45
cluckjBT is better19:45
nmz787someone on hackaday was commenting to get some mesh network stuff going in the SoC arena19:45
nmz787$5 MCU+mesh would be awesome... hook that to a small battery and solar panel for another 10 or 15, add a 5 temp+humidity sensor19:46
nmz7875$19:46
cluckjwunderground on steroids19:46
nmz787channel spacing on nrf2401 is 1MHz19:46
nmz787my buddy has a farm with a big fence19:46
nmz787so I've been thinking of security systems19:47
cluckjlol19:47
nmz787he also has an electric fence, which has a remote that can interact with the controller at the barn19:47
nmz787to turn the fence on or off19:47
kanzurehow about a camera on a giant pole19:48
nmz787yeah, but then he needs mesh or something to pipe it back to him19:49
cluckjthey make wifi security cameras19:49
nmz787or some long ass wire or fiber optic19:49
nmz787problem is in forested and non-line-of-sight wifi doesn't make it too far19:49
nmz787so he could need a lot of mesh points19:49
stragesarcnet over the fence wire19:50
nmz787yeah, I just started looking that up19:50
nmz787.title http://www.google.com/patents/US565102519:52
yoleauxPatent US5651025 - Method and apparatus pertaining to communication along an electric fence line - Google Patents19:52
cluckjnmz787, the wixel probably does <1Mhz19:56
nmz787250kHz19:58
nmz787err19:58
nmz787wait19:58
nmz787they also say 750 and 1MHz19:58
cluckjhmmmmm19:58
nmz787a19:58
nmz787it is selectable19:59
nmz787more bandwidth needs higher spacing19:59
nmz787min is 250kHz tho19:59
nmz787when you posted about 'the manual'19:59
cluckjsensor transmitter is 334.7kHz bandwidth19:59
nmz787was that from the sensor?19:59
cluckjyeah20:00
nmz787well the TI doc says for 250kbaud you need 750kHz spacing20:00
nmz787and for 500kbaud you need 1MHz20:00
cluckjthe tx rate is around 50kb20:01
nmz787what was 334.7 then? you said bandwidth20:02
nmz787hrmm20:02
cluckjthe hacked receiver must just be luckily picking up one of the four tx frequencies the sensor is sending20:02
nmz787the numbers you posted are ~25 MHz apart20:03
nmz787there is some compensation/adjust in the frequency with certain protocols it seems20:04
cluckjyes20:04
nmz787yeah I guess they're the same then20:05
nmz787ISM20:05
cluckjk20:06
cluckjthe sensor probably sends at four different frequencies to avoid interference20:07
cluckjeh, too sleepy to think about this anymore...I'll track down the developer tomorrow to see what's up20:09

nmz787just got the sparkfun oled module to run on an edison20:47
fennjustanotheruser: i think i remember someone saying the boston fablab spent about $750k on tools and materials, and techshop something like $2million, but they are bad at acquiring stuff and solved problems by throwing money at them (and wasted a bunch probably)20:47

abetuskI've been keeping a watch on those cheapo Chinese 40W laser cutters, and they're in the $600 range last time I checked20:54
fennjust imagine it's a kit project and you won't be disappointed20:56
kanzurei don't think those would be able to handle the sort of workloads that techshop goes through in a popular area20:57
kanzurelike 10 hours/day of use, i would imagine20:57
kanzureperhaps this explains the perpetually scheduled, perpetually under-repair laser cutters plaguing hackerspaces everywhere20:58
nmz787I've aligned a chinese CO2 laser once, it wasn't too bad20:58
nmz787for high-use I think proper exhaust ventilation to keep the optics as clear as possible would be prudent20:59
kanzurea lot of the hackerspace emails i get are about dirty mirrors and dirty optics from broken laser cutters -_-20:59
abetuskWhat is the issue with the high work loads?  Cooling and good venting for optic cleanliness?  Or is there another reason they can't handle it?21:00
nmz787if you don't have some liquid crystal sheet, you can use old thermal paper from receipts, but a lc sheet is much better21:00
nmz787but it isn't easy to align them21:00
nmz787so anything needing replaced needs some TLC21:01
nmz787the first time is probably the hardest though21:01
kanzurei think there's also some calibration issues that happen when people pick up and then replace the mirrors21:02
kanzures/replace/re-insert21:02
nmz787well yeah, you need to re-align the whole system21:02
nmz787or at least anything downbeam of that component21:02
abetusk$600 is about the range where I'd be willing to take a chance.  I was thinking of swapping out the guts with a smoothieboard21:04
nmz787might be able to get one without controls21:05
abetuskhmm, never considered it...you have an idea of where to look?21:05
