anyone care to pastebin a copy of the text?

I think that's solved now though, at least for a few ICs and toolchains, via things like MyHDL and/or rhea (tldr; Python wrappers) and websites like fpga4fun.com

Why don't these numbers ever list the width AND height AND length... I'd really like to know how many atoms each transistor was composed of.

doesn't the Willamette and Columbia river run along mountain range for a long while?

I wrote a tool like this for big high-performance test boards at work, the input was a spreadsheet, and I automatically generated (visual) schematics after assigning the netlist using a constraint solver. The analog guys review and debug us

Oh, by 'package' I meant heat-seal in plastic bags. 'Packaging' a silicon chip for electrical use should be pretty similar regardless of the production technique, given chemical compatibility, stress/strain of the c

I do part time work packaging FIBbed gizmos, the 'machinist' has done at best a 50nm diameter aperture in metal film (from what I recall, maybe it was 100nm) using a beam diameter of 10nm. This is on a machine that was new 20 year

spectruino's ADC isn't fast enough to capture all the data from a CCD data frame, thus to get an entire spectrum one needs to sample multiple times and shift the ADC sample clock... or deal with not having all the pixels. This met

Very good point, I would think before making a fancy case and adding useless colorful LED rings, you would try to prove the actual detection concept, which hasn't been shown by the maker.

That's exactly what expensive notch filters do.

Seems like the smart thing would be pushing rendering to the client. This is already done in real-time for coarse and simple models like PDB.

Thanks for the kind words! The $800 price tag was just a kickstarter only price, since we were still largely in the development phase we weren't sure of final pricing. Now it looks like a UV capable scientific instrument with a chinese grat

I think daniel_reetz put it right with "good enough". This isn't a lab or scientific instrument. But its cheap enough to use as a teaching tool, to get people interested and in-the-know about light and its connection to common life.

using a 2D sensor, you could actually just block one half of the slit at a time with your sample, and let the other half of the slit pass through unchanged... that way you could get a calibration shot for every sample, assuming the dynamic

You want a "peaky" light source to build the spectral response model, xenon or deuterium flashbulbs are cheap on amazon... I would lean towards using deuterium because I think the relative power of the peak to the blackbody floor (the rest

As to your last comment, JCVI already did that, synthesis is lacking for speed and cost as compared to sequencing today.

current behemoth machines have errors too, often the best way to get a really polished sequence is to sequence on machines which have different type of errors, and interlace the data appropriately.

Different here. Bug found when I switch resolution... other cams keep playing rather than pausing... thus synchronicity is lost.

I'd also like to know the answer to this question. Also isn't openFrameworks supposeds to be more frame-worky than just a library (someone mentioned earlier simplecv aims to be more of a framework rather than just a library) Did the develop

That doesn't really make any comparison between open and simple CV. The example towards the end thqt compares two code snippets isn't even comparing the same operation, in the C code it creates a new image and places text on it, while the p
