fakesat

Posted: September 7th, 2008 | Author: | Filed under: thumbtribes | Tags: , , | No Comments »

Continuing my theme of projects that suffer from issues of critical mass I have began work on fakesat. I was looking for something to do with my beagleboard so decided that using it for this project would be fun. I have ordered a 100 meter Bluetooth dongle so will see how well that really works. I am interested in low cost community driven alternatives to GPS especially ones that work well in urban environments.
