These are some of the devices that we sell for money. Unfortunately, untill someone figures out a better way of organising the world economy, not everything can be given off free of charge...
But hey! It's not that bad really. If all that we wanted is to topple up our pockets, we would strip down and start a reality TV show instead of twisting our brains with recursive algorithms. So basically, we are still on the same side. In order to make it easier for you to get some of these gadgets, we decided that there would be a few ways of doing it:
-
The most luxurious one is buying the finished product as a tested operating unit. Since this requires feeding the horde of gremlins who do all the manual labour in our cellar with tons of food day and night, this option costs big bucks.
-
We can send to you a kit with all the necessary components so that you can put the stuff together on your own. This requires feeding only the troll operating the fork loader in our garage, so this option costs less. And having in mind the tenderness the courier services personell deals with delicate packages, this option is also probabbly a more problem free than the first one.
-
As our commercial projects often utilise microcontrollers to run, we can sell off only the preprogrammed chips and possibly the PCB. This is a far less labour intensive option for our crew and consequently the compensation is far less. Naturally, it should be assumed that you are willing to put some effort into getting all the right components on your own and then assemblying and testing the finished device. Should you find any difficulties while selecting the components, please do not hesitate to ask for an advice.

If you are not sure whether you actually need a gadget, there is an option to buy a preprogrammed chip with limited cappabilities for the prise of the hardware itself. Alternatively, if you have a microcontroller programmer at hand, you can download the appropriate .hex code from our web site for free and burn it into your own chip. Think of it as testing the shareware application you downloaded from the net. Untill you decide that it is worth giving off some cache, you can play around with the toy.
Not all options are available for all the projects. We will note the valid ones on their dedicated pages as soon as we catch up with the work required.

Even if you are not interested in buying the hardware or firmware from us, it still might be well worth visiting the commercial pages as there are quite a few interesting ideas explained on them. Naturally, we could not give off all our industrial secrets but nevertheless inventive readers will find some clues of what actually ticks inside the little black box that does the job.
Feel free to send an e-mail should you have a question or a suggestion concerned with the projects presented here. We will put our best efforts into straightening the things up. If the idea turns out to be commercially interesting enough, it might even lead to the production of an entirely new gadget. A personal reward will be that you'll get one of the first production samples for free :)
