picoFlamingo "Cracking Egg". Clock Demo

Tue, 08/10/2010 - 20:44 — picoflamingo

One of the most interesting features in the new picoFlamingo ("The Cracking Egg") is the possibility to dynamically update slides. In order to illustrate this feature we had written this clock demonstration. It looks like this:

As you can imagine the digital clock in the middle of the screen will update every sec. The best thing is that this demo is almost trivial using the new UPDATE_TEXT command.

This is the slide definition for this demonstration:

picoFlamingo Case Prototype

Fri, 08/06/2010 - 12:11 — picoflamingo

Hiya!

Our first try to put everything in a case. Still needs lot of work but it's a beginning. For a final version we will need to unsolder some connectors and build a small power supply to be able to use just one power source for everything

And this is how it will look like with the picoDLP on top, before adding all the pico cabling. We also build a simpler case for our old B6.

Making of picoFlamingo. Chapter 01Hi there!

We announced this some time ago, and actually, the first draft was ready at some time in April, however it has been difficult to get time for reviewing it. It is far from being complete, and will need a couple of updates, but it is an start.

CP 1: Magic Frame

Sat, 06/05/2010 - 15:48 — picoflamingo

Let's first introduce CP.

CP stands for Cool Project... and what's that?. Well, we are having lots of ideas and not too much time so we are putting them here and, maybe, somebody else will implement them sooner than us, or maybe they have already been implemented and we are not aware of that. In the next weeks we will be telling you about these CPs and hopefully some of you will bring them to live or will warn us about something already done.

Let's go for this Magic Frame CP!

Ave picoFlamingus. Julius te saluta!

Hi there!

This is our next step towards a fully portable picoFlamingo: Speech Recognition. This new feature makes the remote control device optional so, only the picoFlamingo box (will come at some point) is all you
need to make a presentation at any time in any place.

For speech recognition we are using Julius. A very nice tool that seems quite stable and powerful. Check out this video demonstration.
