I'm aiming more at hacker friendly. Long term strain gauge installations is not something people can do at home. Reprogramming is. So I'm hoping to take an Arduino style approach. Offer the hardware (if there proves to be some demand) and let people reprogram with aftermarket firmware. It's kind of like the WRT54G router. The router works well out of the box, but some people like hacked firmware for additional features. That's more of what I'm looking at. Provide the low cost hardware, let people add features (gyro, accelerometer, other communications, etc).Keith Wakehamhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04750593468902337123noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-831309579862171927.post-68763312642465216982013-06-03T06:17:22.543-07:002013-06-03T06:17:22.543-07:00Looking good Keith.

Are your programming files, circuit board files and so on going to be open source? I would be highly interested, since I'm a cyclist too.Emitterhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06507681005871636949noreply@blogger.com
