Dexter Industries have launched a Kickstarter project for the BrickPi! Become a backer and get one of these super cool shields for your Raspberry Pi. I wrote about the BrickPi not that long ago and I think this a really awesome addition to the Raspberry Pi ecosphere! As of writing [...]
The BrickPi is Dexter Industries latest project. It’s an interface board, or shield, for the super popular Raspberry Pi, a cheap ($25) and small but very powerful processor board that runs Linux. The BrickPi allows you to easily interface your NXT motors and sensors with the RasPi, without having to [...]
Some exciting things are happening with Dexter Industries. Earlier this week they announced they’re working on a couple of mystery products. Here they are, as they appear on the DI website. Mystery Project #1 This appears to be a Raspberry Pi with a custom shield on top of it that [...]
The 3.3.1 release of the Driver Suite is hopefully the last of the 3.x series. I’ve now started working on implementing a new architecture for Driver Suite 4.x. Some things will change, some remain the same: Sensor related data is now kept in structs, so buffers will no longer be shared [...]
Dexter Industries have unleashed another sensor into the wild, the dLight. I sort of ran my mouth a little, when I released my previous version of the Driver Suite by mentioning it then. However, it’s out now and available from the Dexter Industries website. So what exactly is the dLight? [...]
Version 3.3 is out and should work just fine with all version of ROBOTC for NXT of at least 3.59. I still need more testers for the dWiFI and NXT2WIFI sensors, so if you’re keen, let me know. If you’re not keen, then, ehm, don’t. IMPORTANT NOTICE(S)! This suite will [...]
I’ve been very busy working on a completely revised driver for the Dexter Industries DWiFi and I needed a clean way to tokenise a string that had a single character as a separator. ROBOTC didn’t seem to have a strtok() which is what you’d use if you were using gcc [...]
A new Driver Suite is here for your installing pleasure. The NXT2WIFI is pretty much done as far as I am concerned. I may add some nice wrappers for sending Tweets and that sort of thing but maybe someone else can do that and I’ll add the code to the [...]
Hello tinkerers, look at your adapter, now back to mine, now back at your adapter, now back to mine. Sadly, it’s not like mine, but if you headed over to Dexter Industries and bought one, it could look like this one. Anything is possible when you can quickly disable [...]
There’s a new instalment of the Driver Suite. It’s still a bit of a work in progress at the moment, with regards to the RS485 stuff. I’m busy overhauling the RS485 code in the Dexter Industries dWifi and NXTBees, so for now, I would advise you to use temporary ones [...]
