| | It's supposed to be dry all week, there's no snow to fight with, the disc golf holes are present, and Saturday's forecast is for sunshine and a high of 46. So let's play disc golf! |

| === "January" Social: Fridays February 12th, 19th, plus others === | | === Virtual Technical Meeting: Thursday February 8th === |
| We're going to try a map-based (eg armchair) road rally, http://home.earthlink.net/~oldmaltese/Massacre.html . Due to there having been a start-up cost for this event, I will be asking for contributions (say $5-10/family?) for those who come participate. Anyone bringing an additional "11x15 100-page-plus 2016 Rand McNally Road Atlas" (this same large scale copy MSRP $20, Amazon has for $15) will have their fee waived for their assistance uncrowding the map table.
| | Aaron Albertson will present a wrap up of this season's volunteer work with student robotics. |
|
| |
|
| I anticipate this being much better done by small groups, and it seems a bit lengthy. So we are going to host two pre-specified nights of map reading, and if Friday nights don't work well for you then email me off-list to request your available T/W/Sat/Sun timeframe and we'll see if we can work something out. Fees per family won't be re-collected at subsequent attendances.
| | 6 pm |
|
| |
|
| 6:30 pm at Tina's house (email for directions). Snack/beverage potluck only (come with dinner already in your belly).
| | Anything else you want to see on the agenda? Let us know. |
|
| |
|
| Postmark deadline for submission of this for scoring is Monday February 29th, which realistically means we're going to have to mail it on Saturday the 27th, so our last potential night is Friday February 26th.

| Do you wish there was an easy, cheap way for your micro-controllers to
| |
| talk to each other over a wireless link? If so, come and learn about the
| |
| Nordic nrf24L01+ type modules. These allow short range wireless
| |
| communication in the 2.4 GHz band. The nrf24L01+ is designed for PC
| |
| keyboard/mouse, remote controls, home automation, toys etc.
| |
| | |
| There is available software to use the nrf24L01+ modules with common
| |
| boards such as Arduino, Raspberry Pi and Beaglebone Black. The nrf24L01+
| |
| module can be added to these boards for about $1 per node, if ordered
| |
| directly from China. I'll talk a little about my experience ordering
| |
| directly from China.
| |
| | |
| I will talk about the features of the nrf24L01+ and the software to use it. I will demo a sensor star network with a couple of them on Arduinos (what else?) sending data to an Arduino attached to a laptop as the base unit.
| |
| | |
| If you are ready to break your New Years Resolutions, I will be bringing
| |
| German Chocolate cup cakes with coconut pecan frosting.
