Hackers,
Dave from element14 called yesterday, discussed the opportunity to receive
some hardware (raspberry pi's, beagle bones etc.) or any other components
we need to prototype a specific implementation:
A stop motion video recorded from Raspberry Pi based hardware that
captures a debate of DeathStar vs Borg Cube from Star Trek. Video1 where
DeathStar wins, video 2 where BorgCube wins.
That was my best effort to capture the offer that element14 is putting
together specifically for hackerspaces in celebration of their 200,000th
user estimated in August this year.
At this time Dave is collaborating with element14's legal department to
formalize this a bit upon my request, and shortly will be sending us a
draft with more details.
I wanted to share this with everyone ahead of time though to understand how
many hackers would be interested in participating in this from start to
finish, assuming there's a few weeks for us to meet and work on it?
Please reply back with your availability for this at your convenience.
Regards,
G
ps: I thought this would be a great project for experienced electronics
hobbyists to share their knowledge AND work on a collaborative project
together with people on the verge of buying their first Raspberry Pi (or
other electronics kits).. I think if we are able to work on this
successfully, it would be great to showcase this at the Akron MiniMaker
Faire as well!
