Smart Pet Collar Project Startup 宠物智能可穿戴设备项目启动介绍 你有骄傲地秀过你家萌宠的照片吗？小东西面色不好，你也担心过它是否生病，却手足无措，心如刀割么？甚至想起别家小狗被拐卖的新闻时，害怕自己疏忽而从冷汗中惊醒吗？你本该与它时刻尽享轻松乐趣，现实中你却总难放下心来…… 但现在，是时候让我的努力，解决你的困扰啦！ 可穿戴式设备发展至今，我们已经在眼镜、手环、甚至鞋子上无所不用其极。某位土豪将智能手表戴上了汪星人的爪子，但测出的心率却低于普通狗的3倍！的确，可爱的宠物们需要专为它们定制的智能产品。 剩下的七月和八月里，我计划打造一款具有初步功能的智能项圈样机。下周，我将尝试熟悉Lua与安卓的编程、简单通信，以及通过Arduino了解加速度传感器的使用。届时将欢迎各路大神的指点，也在这里提前感谢你们。 暑假里，我将参加八月初的“黑科松”，在八月中下旬完成样机的制作，并进行项目的成果展示。样机将能够实现传感器数据采集、在wifi条件下的数据传输、以及与手机App的联通。这款样机也将成为宠物智能可穿戴设备的开发平台，为未来功能更完善的产品奠定基础。 同时，在今年年末的时候，一款具备追踪定位、健康监测、游戏娱乐、以及更多意想不到功能的成熟产品将依据规划进入试产，并在2016年实现技术的商业价值。 此外，作为一名有爱心的年轻人，我也非常希望在创造科技的同时，履行更多的社会责任。在产品发售后，我将把产品免费提供给上海正在使用的27条导盲犬（1条在三天前走失），本装置将极大地提升人与犬的安全性，保护珍贵的导盲犬资源，更让残疾人和他们的家庭更放心。 ]]>

Jonathan presents his E-Bike that he’s been working on this year, throw away your keyfobs! ]]>

 Code is is on github. The Helper sessions are about sharing and learning anything. The Assistive devices are used as one focus for learning.  If you would like to join in and just explore a big range of hardware including the new Xadow, a wearable Arduino, that has eight add on modules and a wearable frame to mount the modules inside, all just shipped directly from the SeeedStudio research lab – hence at least one minor issue to fix. There are also bluetooth devices, 3D printing, eyetracking and heaps of code to write, so come and join in Thursday night from 7:30, no experience required, just Xinchejian membership.   Group members also arrange to meet at other times, so make contact directly or via the mailing list to arrange! Several wiki updates including this new page for heaps more good stuff to work on!  More information is here and here.]]>

1. All questions welcome
2. We all share and help each other
3. Make & hack stuff – anything!

      …. one theme will be assistive devices as this covers a huge range of technology!

Anyone is free to suggest other themes! All languages are welcome. Proposed guidelines

• Display “Helper sessions” welcome sign – so people know were to come (don’t be shy !)
• Setup at one table/area – with chairs and clean workspace.
• Noisy discussions should move to another area, so main group can continue.
• Share and document – let other people know if you had a good time, or learnt something (or not)
  • Ask for wiki account and how to use the wiki!
• You need to be a member

These sessions are intended to extend the always great help available at anytime at Xinchejian

Aim is to fit in between formal workshop Xinchejian learning and to give some relief to Xinchejian regular members as they often spend most of their time helping others. THANKS for all the interest and support after Wednesday nights talk! When:- Trial Thursday from 7:30 starting from 11th July. If any interest we can try other times, including weekends. Where:- At Xinchejian Cost:- Free, but members only (100RMB per month, cheaper for longer periods) Links – Early draft pages have been started on the wiki:- Helper Sessions    Assistive Devices These will be added to in coming days and weeks. Note “Helper sessions” is a draft name – fits in with Maker, hacker, and also fits in with assistive technology. Any better suggestions?]]>

Summary for Wednesday/本周三开放日综述

3. ..You..

Wednesday Presenters/本周演讲者介绍

诸 晓鸣 is Visually impaired, self taught to program in C++ and PHP and works to improve accessibility across computers for others in the same situation, from text to speech and information accessibility development and builds games! Matthew DeBlock has invented his own writing style that looks like a script language however it encodes roman alphabet, if anyone has designed a font before, now imagine how hard it is to design an entire writing style!]]>

The creative programming meeting aims to bring together everybody who is interested in programming.  In the first meeting we hope to find the tools to use to gather our knowledge to be able to realize together a project. All participants will have an opportunity to give a brief description of their idea (and occasionally we will breakout into smaller groups based on shared interests) In previews discussions people expressed their interest in Visualising data with D3.js: Or highlighted the simplisity of paper.js: It seems to be easy to connect javascript to everything which understands OSC in one or another way: or we do something totally different:
