*NEW* USB Input/Output Board -- Fusion Brain

[Blue ZX3]

Just read the WHOLE thread and I am impressed as to the speed of implication and the great ideas everyone has posed. If I could get some of my projects out of the way, I would be placing an order.

And as JohnWPB post about the COM dll, I know that would be a HUGE help for interfacing w/ the board.

Keep up the great work towards a community developed/inspired project...

You read the whole thread?!

Wow. I commend you.

Thanks for the encouragement guys. And as always, any ideas, just let us know. I am currently still sodlering the prototype of the ultrasonic sensor, and hope to get that working in the next day or so provided I didnt screw up somewhere. Its so heavily complicated, that if aI screwed up, I think all hope is lost, and I would just have to start anew.

Ill keep you guys posted. Is the website working well for everybody? Anybody with IE7 that can attest to the *.png banner at the top displaying correctly?

The first one is what it looks like in IE6 (the only version I have), and it is wrong!!! The second one is what is supposed to look like!

Ok I think the ultrasonic is working. It is on my bench right now, and i get varying voltage out with how it is positioned, to 1 step in the right direction!

Now I need to find an oscope to get everything optimized....

I was just monkeying with your transparency problem on IE6.

This website has a fix that may work:

I copied your website files locally and messed with it and was able to get the atom to show the background using the trick described on this link.

Of course getting the ultrasonic sensor working is probably higher priority and more important than a minor display glitch on IE. :-)

I have IE7 and it displays like its supposed to

Thankyou. That's what I wanted to hear. Im guessing most IE users have upgraded to IE7 now anyways right?



Anyways, I was browsing the store and switched to euro currency, and everything was higher! I made a math error!

Well that is fixed now. Instead of being 134% higher, it is now a much better 74% the amount although with the plummeting USD, I am sure I will have to change these soon.

On a good note, at least all my funds up home are worth more now! 92cents on the dollar! w00t!

[2k1Toaster]

Oh, and also added CAD and GBP to the currencies as well.

so basically this unit is the same thing as www.connect2car.com put out?

[2k1Toaster]

Isnt' this kinda like that??
Excuse my ignorance if it's not...
CONNECT2CAR: 3RD GENERATION CAR CONTROL SYSTEMS

You are excused.

First off, price. The MFC is $300 for the basic serial version. $500 for the premium version. So for $50 you can have Fusion, or for 10 TIMES THE PRICE you can have that.

Fusion is USB controlled, while the MFC is serial controlled.
Fusion has 12 digital outs, while the MFC has 8
Fusion has 10 analogue ins, while MFC has 1 that can only be used for a tach wire
...and I can go on and on if you need more convincing, but the price tag is really all the convincing I need!

oh, and the fusion board is only 70mm by 70mm. That thing is f-ing huge in comparison just in case you needed another motivator.

Yes... but its BLUETOOTH controlled

U had to see that one coming from me

Ok. Got me there. If you want a bluetooth enabled pooper scooper, then you are welcome to spend $260 extra for that functionality while losing all the benefits of our system.



But technically ours can be bluetooth controlled because the PC can be controlled via bluetooth, wifi, magic gremlins, whatever, so can this. Boo-ya!

Im looking at using a Temperature controlled relay so my CarPC wont turn on unloess its between a certain temperature..

Can this Input/Output board combined with the temperature probe abailable do what ths device can do.

That looks perfect. But your board may work also im just not sure on the functionality.
