  Brrrr!!! Poor little P2... must be so cold in there.
  
  I hope anyone that sends Ken an email also posts them here. I'd love to see everyone's photos.

  Perfect, Lachlan. Send me the original, please. It'll make a good post about community involvement, testing and characterization efforts. More photos like this one are appreciated. Any pictures or screen shots of tools, programming code, applications (did I see a Space Invaders game somewhere?) are also good.
  
  Thanks David, too. I replied by e-mail and confirmed some of my favorites.
  
  You guys are making this job a lot easier for us. The Parallax team has pushed hard to fuel this project and we appreciate the direct support you also give us in this form.

  I thought I posted a thermal pick of P2-ES but perhaps I never posted it.
  
  Here's P2D2 thermal pic. I need to get a nice, normal operating temp (as opposed to overclocking/stressing) version

  I am likely going to re-write my Feedback Servo Driver (for up to eight servos in one cog). Here is the test bed.

  Re-inventing the wheel is not a waste of time if, when you are done, you understand why it is round.

  There's something strange about that image. The hot spot is too far off-centre to be correct. Same for the eight mounting holes, their outlines don't align with the eight round cold spots.
  
  The camera must have two imaging sensors.
  
  EDIT: And there is a scaling discrepancy too. The details at the top-left of the image are more closely matched than at the bottom-right.

  Quote correct - without the normal camera you'd see no detail at all, combining the two is
  pretty standard way round this. The parallax is (no pun intended) unavoidable.

  The attached Youtube video shows some of the first motion with my P2-EVAL controlling a small 5 axis CNC machine.
  
  The software is "Running" a full six axis with multi-stage ramping but I only have the XYZ motors hooked up for now. I'm currently using multi-stage linear ramping, but I'm working on what I hope to be a smooth "S" ramp profile soon.
  
  My machine is old and cranky and been sitting in the weather for a couple of years so it doesn't move very fast. ( I'm surprised it't still working at all.) I've got some fairly large delays in the pulse timing, but it looks like I can hit a couple million pulses per second fairly easily in full linear interpolative motion. I'm looking forward to using the cordic instructions for circular interpolation but I wanted to show what I have so far.

  Hi Ken
  
  Not photo related - but can you ask someone to update the Catalina description on the propeller.parallax.com website?
  
  It currently says "Catalina - P2 C Compiler/linker by RossH"
  
  Could you amend that to "Catalina - P1 and P2 C Compiler/linker by Ross Higson"
  
  Thanks!
  
  Ross.

  I will make up a new P2D2 on Monday when the new chips arrive. I can post some photos then driving various devices. The dev board will be the following week and that connects up to so many things that it should make for some interesting photos.

  Please share what you've got to kgracey@parallax.com. I can download from wherever, of course. Higher resolution is best because it gives us more flexibility over their use.

  We have a Nikon 3D X-ray inspection scanner at work. I might be able to talk the operator into scanning my P2 eval board if that would be of interest... although I think it would mostly just show the pads on the chip.
