This project is about using embedded Linux devices to detect, record and react to seismic events. The idea is to use accelerometers to detect shaking and then communicate this event to all other devices connected to the same broadcast group. We are developing the technology using OpenWrt which allows us to use a range of [...]
Recently I was revisiting a powerful open source search engine technology on a Ben NanoNote to see how well it performed. Bearing in mind the NanoNote is only equipped with 32MB of RAM and a 336MHz MIPS processor it performed admirably. As a proof of concept I took the PDF lecture slides from three MIT [...]
I have been hacking at the OpenWrt Makefile and now have command line history working within the REPL. opkg install http://zedstar.org/guile/libgmp_4.3.1-2_xburst.ipk opkg install http://zedstar.org/guile/libltdl_1.5.26-1_xburst.ipk opkg install http://zedstar.org/guile/guile_1.8.7_xburst.ipk Once installed setup a .guile file: root@BenNanoNote:~# cat /root/.guile (use-modules (ice-9 readline)) (activate-readline) When you run guile now you should be able to use the up and down [...]
Received a Ben NanoNote today. It is a really natty little device with a lot of potential. My standard test on how hackable a device is involves getting Guile running. Anyway, it was pretty easy to accomplish this despite not using openWrt before. root@BenNanoNote:~# root@BenNanoNote:~# guile guile> (map (lambda (x) (+ x 1)) ‘(1 2 [...]
