Electronic ‘skin’ can monitor your heart - SentinelSource.com: Health Fitness Posted: Wednesday, August 31, 2011 12:15 pm | Updated: 1:33 pm, Wed Aug 31, 2011. Electronic ‘skin’ can monitor your heart By Elizabeth Landau CNN News Service SentinelSource.com Electronic ‘skin’ can monitor your heart Hospital monitoring devices are clunky and uncomfortable, with all of their wires and plugs like you’d see with any old machine. Heart disease patients sometimes have to wear monitors for a month or more. But now, a group of researchers is making health care electronics look and feel more like part of your own body.

BlinkM Smart LED as the Smallest Arduino Did you know you can run Arduino programs on tiny BlinkM Smart LEDs? It might make BlinkM the smallest Arduino so far. To use a BlinkM as an Arduino, all you need is the free Arduino software, a low-cost AVR programmer, some wire, and a BlinkM. Here’s a quick video showing how it all works. BlinkM Capabilities as an Arduino The BlinkM board doesn’t have nearly the I/O pins and other features of a real Arduino board. Hadoop Tutorial Introduction HDFS, the Hadoop Distributed File System, is a distributed file system designed to hold very large amounts of data (terabytes or even petabytes), and provide high-throughput access to this information. Files are stored in a redundant fashion across multiple machines to ensure their durability to failure and high availability to very parallel applications. This module introduces the design of this distributed file system and instructions on how to operate it. Goals for this Module:

The Free Universal Construction Kit Ever wanted to connect your Legos and Tinkertoys together? Now you can — and much more. Announcing the Free Universal Construction Kit: a set of adapters for complete interoperability between 10 popular construction toys. Fig. 1. The Free Universal Construction Kit. Overview Nokia shows off stretchable “electronic skin”, other futuristic stuff (video) Ever since Nokia showcased the Morph concept a couple of years ago, the company’s fans have been wondering: when will such a phone become available? We still don’t have the answer to that question, but we do know that Nokia is serious about turning this concept into reality. In a post published today at its official blog, Nokia has presented some of the work it’s doing at its Research Centre in Cambridge, UK. One of the things the team at NRC Cambridge is working on is the so-called stretchable electronic skin. This is an electronic touchpad that, thanks to the use of “evaporated gold as a conductor”, can be stretched and crumpled without losing its functionality.

CyzRgb - codalyze - CYZ_RGB: An alternative firmware for [ BlinkM] - A software playground Version Beta 1 BlinkM is a Smart LED produced by ThingM: BlinkM is a “Smart LED”, a networkable and programmable full-color RGB LED for hobbyists, industrial designers, prototypers, and experimenters. Just connect it to an I2C bus and start sending commands like "Show RGB Color" or "Fade to HSV Value" and so on and so forth (it does much more; see the human-readable data sheet). The original BlinkM firmware from ThingM is closed source due to licensing issues, so CYZ_RGB was written to provide an open-source implementation which can be shared and extended to support additional features. The latest release implements all documented features of the original firmware with the exception of the built in light scripts which are sacrificed to make room for the extended features of CYZ_RGB.

12.08.2010 - Our brains are wired so we can better hear ourselves speak, new study shows Like the mute button on the TV remote control, our brains filter out unwanted noise so we can focus on what we’re listening to. But when it comes to following our own speech, a new brain study from the University of California, Berkeley, shows that instead of one homogenous mute button, we have a network of volume settings that can selectively silence and amplify the sounds we make and hear. Activity in the auditory cortex when we speak and listen is amplified in some regions of the brain and muted in others. In this image, the black line represents muting activity when we speak. Learnable Programming Here's a trick question: How do we get people to understand programming? Khan Academy recently launched an online environment for learning to program. It offers a set of tutorials based on the JavaScript and Processing languages, and features a "live coding" environment, where the program's output updates as the programmer types.

Take a d.school class Applications are now closed. See each class page for more info. Core Classes New BlinkMSequencer Features ThingM’s Multitrack BlinkMSequencer has been updated to work with both LinkM and with Arduino running the BlinkMCommunicator sketch. Download: New Features and improvements include: LinkM and Arduino connectivity supportPreviously, you used the new Multitrack Sequencer if you had a LinkM and the older single-track sequencer if you had an Arduino. Why SOPA and PIPA Won't Stop Real Piracy Supporters of the Stop Online Piracy Act, or SOPA (and its Senate-sister the Protect Intellectual Property Act, PIPA) legislation — like the Motion Picture Association of America (MPAA) — argue that legislation is needed because online piracy puts jobs and industries at risk. While I agree that content piracy is a real problem, the language and implications of SOPA has the potential to hurt the very industries and content creators the bills purport to protect. Artists and content creators are understandably bothered by how easy it is to obtain content without payment.

Danc's Miraculously Flexible Game Prototyping Tiles RPGs love PlanetCute So do platformers... One of the commenters on the SpaceCute posts wondered what would happen if you visited one of those delightful spa-like planetoids that decorate our little galaxy of cuteness. Well, now you know.
