VCs Pour $570 Million into Wearable Tech #WearableWednesday

"VCs Pour $570 Million into Wearable Tech" on Upstart Business Journal:

Wearable technology isn't just Google Glass or the rumored iWatch, and venture capitalists know it.

A report from New York venture capital research firm CB Insights shows VCs have put $570 million into the nascent field, funding firms like Jawbone, GoPro and the Pebble Watch (which started as a successful Kickstarter campaign and later raised money from VCs).

And there are already several different categories of wearable technology that have drawn VC interest. Among them:

Companies like Pebble that offer augmented or personal display technology. Of course, the big player in this space needs no venture money. In fact, Google Ventures is lining up with Kleiner Perkins Caufield & Byers and Andreessen Horowitz to make investments in developers of apps for Google Glass.

Then there are the body monitoring and fitness companies like Fitbit and Jawbone that have drawn plenty of VC interest.

And controlled computing companies like Thalmic Labs that allow users to bypass traditional computer controls like keyboards in favor of controlling computers with their bodies.

Re: MPU6050 Help

The MPU-6050 sensor has MEMS sensors for gyro and acceleration. The gyro drifts and the accelerometer is sensitive for vibration.

The second file is this, http://playground.arduino.cc/Main/MPU-6050
If that is working, the sensor is connected to the I2C...

Rs232 example, excessive ripple on power supply

Posted: 12 Jun 2013 02:26 AM PDT

I simply followed this example

http://arduino.cc/en/Tutorial/ArduinoSoftwareRS232

If I test the 5v from the Arduino, I see on the oscilloscope a normal 5v plus a little ripple, but if I attach the 5v and GND to the breadboard I get this :

Thank you.  Yes, two arrays would probably work.  I was using it the other day for a different project - not sure why I didn't connect them.

What I'm looking at might get quite large, so I've been keen to get the basics as efficient as possible

Thanks ...

The best way you can do it is using a small relay, and a pir or ultrasonic sensor to detect the incoming car.
Ive already done a project with a automated gate which detects a vehicle at a gate and sends an alarm to go off in a house. Which also has an...

Hi there
It's just an old Sony Ericsson K600i, I chose it because most of those old Sony phones have a really straightforward way of accessing their AT command set.

I did have a look at the GSM library, but it seems hard-coded to the Telefonica GSM shi...

Hello.
So now it works. smiley-cool smiley-yell smiley-yell
it took some time and several attempts with PCB laying.

But now it's there.
it is only a basic building blocks that you can build from, the fact is that it works and it is 100% Arduino compatible.

Re: Transmitting an integer over I2C

Posted: 12 Jun 2013 01:26 AM PDT

You made several errors in your sketch. The first is that a variable of type "int" is 15 bits in size plus one sign bit. I recommend that you use the explicit types (int16_t, uint32_t, etc.) so you always get the correct size.

In your case you don't ne...
