02:22 Jak_o_Shadows What is it at the moment/what is the problem?
02:22 rue_bed something thatdoes the input transforms, the translational transforms,and the output transforms better
02:23 rue_bed there are a lot of gloabel variables in what I have now
02:23 Jak_o_Shadows What kind of transforms? Like, from joint/arm local coords to global coords and stuff?
02:25 rue_bed adc units to degrees with scaling and offsets, control arm to robot arm directional correction, scaling, and zero offsets, and there is one axis to multiplex, and output degrees to servo units scaling and offset
02:26 Jak_o_Shadows oh yeah, you run half your stuff on the uC
02:27 rue_bed I also need to set up hardware id system, so I know what I'm talking to
19:18 Hyratel1 anyone have a suggestion on a NAS brand-series/model? looking for 2-3TB, wifi-G or Eth-100/1000, simple rectangular enclosure prferred so it doens't claim more than its share of shelf space
22:11 wolfmanjm Hyratel1: I prefer to build my own NAS using freeNAS then you can put it in whatever formfactor you want. a ZFS RAID5 or 6 is good for data you don;t want to lose
22:12 Hyratel1 good to know
22:12 Hyratel1 I've got a few boxen I could pick from to put to the task
22:37 Hyratel1 so I need to replace a 6v PAR36 Sealed beam bulb in a hand lantern. I'm thinking to use a peice of acrylic and make my own LED assembly with my own choice of LEDs
