sawdust


definition: noun - powdery particles of wood produced by sawing.

When I'm working on projects, sometimes I build or create things to see if I understand the problems or issues. For that reason, a lot of it is temporary, has no particular purpose, but might be amusing or educational. That's what this site is all about.

This site's content includes topics on hardware, sensors, microcontrollers, software, firmware, techniques I've used or discovered. It's really a stash for things I'm learning and want to share or just keep around for reference.

It covers AVR, SAM7, and Propeller microcontrollers, GPS, power experiments, serial data communications, LogicPort, LANtronix, and RF communications including XBee.

I do middleware software development, web development, Flash GUI development, embedded development, and open source development professionally. In my career I've been with companies such as Macromedia (bought by Adobe), 3Com, OpenLogic, Lotus/IBM. Current clients include the IEEE Standards Association (high availability failover and IDS architectures), the Air Force, and Army (vehicle location systems.) In the last several years I was involved in a large AVL (automated vehicle location) system for the emergency responders of Colorado Springs. For fun I originated the OSCirrus open source project for reading wind speed and direction using an AVR ATMega128 and I originated the Ruby::XBee open source project.

My workbench on a messier day. The oscilloscope on the floor under my desk is one I bought with money my grandfather gave me for graduation....25+ years later, it's still going strong.
