<wpwrak> kristianpaul: military death rays ?
<rejon> cool, we are still on the front page of register: http://www.theregister.co.uk/2011/09/28/milkymist/
<kyak> could someone explain me the following C construct: "register int c = cnt, sum;"? Especially the "sum" part..
<larsc> ist the same as register int c = cnt; register int sum;
<kyak> ah, good
<kyak> larsc: what would happen if sum is not initialized?
<kyak> it is not even defined, in fact...
<kyak> oh
<kyak> it is defined
<larsc> hm?
<kyak> larsc: never mind :) Thank you!
<larsc> ok :)
<tuxbrain_HxxHhzo> Hey hardware gurus :)
<tuxbrain> need assesment for a cam,
<wpwrak> what kind of cam ? still image, video, surveillance, girl's bathroom, ... ?
<tuxbrain> wich model can fit the following needs, 320x180 res, able to use with an atmel chip (Uart, SPI) about one pic each 3 seconds or so
<wpwrak> pheew. no clue ;-)
<wpwrak> let's see if digi-key have something ...
<wpwrak> nope. they just have standard camera modules. typically VGA or better. and not SPI but a parallel bus.
<steve|m> tuxbrain: there are some snap-on cameras for older phone models that use i2c and are quite populat for microcontroller use
<steve|m> a good candidate is the Siemes S55 camera module
<steve|m> *Siemens
<steve|m> "Siemens IQP-500"
<tuxbrain> steve|m: where I can found it?
<steve|m> ebay germany has many of them new, but also ebay US:
<tuxbrain> steve|m: any data sheet or example of usage of this cam, it looks prety good :)
<steve|m> tuxbrain: http://www.mikrocontroller.net/topic/16874 (german unfortunately, but see the attachments, there's a python script etc.)
<steve|m> it uses serial communication actually, not i2c
<steve|m> IQP-530 works as well
<kristianpaul> wpwrak: i was looking for something less agressive
<tuxbrain> mmm I also need the UART of the micro for Zigbee comm, so an I2c solution should be better than serial
<wpwrak> kristianpaul: heh ;-) what i meant to say is that your question is a bit unclear. e.g., were you asking what services are physically possible ? or what already exists in these bands ? etc.
<kristianpaul> yes i know is unclear .. and yes i afaik dont have all the infomration you ask me
<wpwrak> kristianpaul: so what is the context ? do you have a TV tuner and are wondering what you cuold do with it ?
<wpwrak> wolfspraul: btw, when will xiangfu be back ? next week ?

<kristianpaul> wpwrak: nope
<kristianpaul> wpwrak: check it your self better http://www.mintic.gov.co/index.php/mn-news/413-20112609espectro
<kristianpaul> about tv tunner, i already know what to do with it :)
<wpwrak> aha ! you want to have a justification for requesting a bit of the spectrum. sort of kristianpaul's vanity frequency ;-)
<kristianpaul> :p
<kristianpaul> not for my but may be for local floss comunity use
<wpwrak> hmm. maybe ask in your local radio amateur community if they have any ideas.
<kristianpaul> haha
<kristianpaul> thre is no such us thing here afaik :(
<kristianpaul> well, still some people alive in the capital of other two provinces
<wpwrak> maybe there are more then :)
<wpwrak> maybe you also have some people who interconnect over larger distances with WLAN
<wpwrak> something like this: http://www.buenosaireslibre.org/
<kristianpaul> Yes, there this groups, well i already passed the link i gave you to then yday :)

<wpwrak> wolfspraul: interesting ... octoparts is just four people: http://www.adafruit.com/blog/2011/10/03/octopart-is-hiring/
<wpwrak> wolfspraul: that would explain why there's little else but spidering there
<sujan> hello guys, I used nanonotes for my research study and i just tweeted about it. i'll really appreciate your feedback, suggestions. if you are interested: http://alturl.com/66c84
