Hello Mr. Roboto? Bunnie’s chumby ‘contraption’

Monday, January 7th, 2008

I was reading about Bunnie’s lastest robotic contraption that was built using a chumby, phidgets, RC vehicle, cam, DVB-T Modulator, and more! Thought I’d share the link.

Chumby Device Profile for Adobe Device Central CS3

Thursday, November 22nd, 2007

I put some time towards creating a Chumby Device Profile for Adobe Device Central CS3 (Note: It’s very alpha at this point in time).
I am releasing this into the wild, because Adobe just released a Device Profile Update #4 … meaning it’s most likely to be quite some time before a certified Chumby profile makes [...]
