Mitch Altman proposed a Global Hackerspace Challenge and PS:One accepted. We proposed the construction of an array of biosensors which could be used | |||
in a secondary school or college setting as an educational and experimental tool. The array will collect data from various sensors attached to | |||
the test subject's body and then make that data available to the experimenter. The project will use as many COTS parts as possible. The terms | |||
of the Challenge require that it use a microcontroller and a "portable power source". | |||
The full description of the Challenge is at [http://www.tvbgone.com/downloads/hs_challenge/hs_challenge.htm Global Hackerspace Challenge]. | |||
A $900 Paypal budget will be provided by element14. | |||
The only thing required, by the rules, to buy from [http://us.element14.com/ element14] are the microcontroller and the portable power supply. | |||
