Physical Face Following with OpenCV on Android

Here I am again, less than 2 days after my latest post… this must be the shortest delay ever between 2 consecutive posts.

 

First of all I hope you guys will approve of my choice of face to follow ! 🙂   The English title is “All about my mother” by Almodóvar, which I’ve never actually seen, but my wife tells me it’s a really good movie… !

 

Simple serial transceiver – Aurel RTX-MID

 

I’ve been looking for a simple and cheap wireless serial data solution for quite a while now…

No specific usage, but things like every time you integrate your Arduino into a project and then 2 days later you want to update the code and you have to dismount everything, or simply remote control a project or more generally just getting tired of “all the wires”…

Electronic Anti-roll system for tractor (or how to connect IOIO to a Basic Atom

“Tractor”, what tractor… ? That’s what you must be wondering right now, as I don’t often blog about tractors… especially full scale agricultural ones…

This is a slightly different post for me, in that it’s about some help I gave to 2 guys in Germany, working on a hydraulic anti-roll system for a tractor.
Wow… I never though I would be working on “revolutionising the agriculture” as they’ve put it… 🙂

Basic Atom Pro M40 - IOIO - and the ICONIA A500 Android tablet

Android IOIO Wii Motion Plus – Gyroscopes

First of all, the more I work with Android, the more I love it … ! It’s so cool to have both Linux and Java and everything is so open and hackable … !

Wii Motion Plus connected to the IOIO board and then to the Android phone

Android IOIO Wii Nunchuck

I’ve already written a post about how to connect the Wii Nunchuck to the Lego NXT using LeJOS, and there is also information on my blog about how to do the same thing with an Arduino (though I can’t find it right now, so no easy link…).

It’s only fair that I explore the same thing with an Android phone and the IOIO board.

Android – IOIO – RC Servo (or ESC)

This is a sequel to my first Hello World example with the IOIO / Android setup….

Android + IOIO controlling a RC servo

Hello IOIO – Android

Hello IOIO Android

Here’s (finally) my first attempt at programming an Android phone AND interacting with the physical world at the same time… !
