  • Forum Post: Re: Modules for the Omnii family

    Rafay, thats awesome - I took a look, I'm sure you'll be helpful to me later! Tonight I took the plunge and ordered a couple of Arduino Pro Mini 's running at 3.3 Volts (8MHz). I never mentioned in my previous post why I chose the Pro Mini over other Arduino's, well its for a couple...

    Adrian Stagg It would be really cool to connect up a geiger tube to an Omnii, and then use the GPS to log and map all the hot spots around the Fukushima reactors - could help reduce the cost of the clean up if a map of where the worst contamination is, rather than scraping the surface off of the entire...

    Weekend progress report... My little project has taken the back seat as job number three as currently during the day I'm a full time Psion employee and at night a painter and decorator. I really dislike painting and decorating and therefore unfortunately for my wife I might be spending a lot more...

    Adrian, you nailed it. The issue was with that registry setting! I looked at the code samples in the HDK and then looked at the table you mention and set the value based on the bit - not the decimal (hex isn't accepted in the registry editor I was using). I spent some time last night working through...
  • Forum Post: Re: Omnii Modules Project #1 - Temperature/Pressure/Humidity Sensor (Altimeter)

    An update because I've been very quiet of late! I've managed to get the humidity sensor working and I have a reading on the Omnii XT10. My problem is I can't find anyone else out there that has integrated this sensor with the 8MHz 3.3v Arduino before so I'm using code and examples that...
  • Forum Post: Adding Fuel to the Fire...

    Although there have been a number of great developments incorporating our OSM strategy, it's should be no surprise that we want even more. I believe that there is a ton of untapped potential in the market - basically technologies for specific applications looking for a computing platform to run on...
  • Forum Post: RE: Omnii Modules Project #1 - Temperature/Pressure/Humidity Sensor (Altimeter)

    Its been a while since I updated this thread but there has been progress. I have attached not only the humidity sensor but now have the pressure and temperature sensor connected too. Here are a couple of pictures before I attached the temperature sensor (I'll add another picture tomorrow which...
  • Forum Post: Omnii Modules Project #1 - Temperature/Pressure/Humidity Sensor (Altimeter)

    This thread will document progress on the Temperature / Pressure and Humidity sensor module for the Omnii XT10 that I'm currently developing. It was spawned from an initial discussion here about possible modules for the Omnii family. I am planning on purchasing the following sensors for this little...
  • Forum Post: Modules for the Omnii family

    I've been thinking about developing a module for the Omnii family for a while now. The idea started as a flashlight end cap way back when we first launched XT10, this has been much talked about since by others but as far as I'm aware, nobody actually did it. I thought of other modules too, like...
  • Forum Post: Sensordrone

    Whilst browsing last night I stumbled across an interesting Kickstarter project: meet Sensordrone . I'm really interested in this as it takes the little project I started working on and expands it in a much bigger way. Here's a list of sensors included: Precision Electrochemical Gas Sensor...
