Hello folks, we are designing an AVR-based device which uses a graphical LCD, and the Ramtex graphics library software. This can import truetype fonts for use on the device, but warns that doing so may infringe the font copyright. We are working with some designers who are keen t

Most consumer electronics IR remotes use a protocol called RC5. Google that. It's not compatible with a UART. On AVRfreaks.net, I contributed an AVR implementation and PC side software to make a learning IR remote. Look in the projects section for "TWIRP". Also, there are quite a

I worked on a project for Chicago Transit where there were passenger-entering sensors on the busses, tied to our system. Several vendors for these. They were modulated IR systems with specialized lenses and optics. Some busses use mag stripe or bar code readers for automated toll

I found a reasonable option for me for such a calculator: It's a java calculator for use on iPhone, Palm, and a few other models. It mimics the HP calculator look, and has hex, binary, and octal functions. It also has, as a throwback to HP calculators of yore, RPN and allows you
