    This thread is being moved from the Propeller Forum to the Sandbox Forum since it is off-topic in the original forum.

    Sniper King,

    Congratulations!! Pisces!!

    Looking to turn this into a side project?
    When we had our daughters, VERY early on I was always curious why the Ultrasonic technician could not provide an audible heart beat when visually the information was there on the ultrasonic monitor. The reason given was because "it was too early on, and the ultrasonic "wand" could not detect enough audio discrimination."

    I say BLAH!! ...All you need to do is use a fiber optic sensor that you can place on the Ultrasonic video Monitor·where you can "see" the heart beating. This could even be incorporated into the "wand" that supposedly wouldn't be sensitive enough.

    Congrats !

    Thing about children is that after the fun of initial construction their power supply needs constant attention, it takes forever to boot them up to a working state and you're never sure if the intended software got loaded properly.

    But seriously, have fun, children are the most fascinating things in this world.

    Same vein as heater,

    I'm still busy trying to install the vocal processor and get the I/O functionality working! The inverted pendulum algorithm is working pretty well now, with fuzzy logic control system able to compensate for increasingly larger disturbances from the target state. I must admit that I had one lucky break and managed to get the hibernation/sleep mode well functional after only four months - which ended most of the overtime hours.

    They are funny little people - enjoy every moment.

    I think SK is still in the build stages... Made it past the design phase, and is now well into the initial prototyping. Sounds like the boss is letting this one get by on the engineers good principles, rather than interfering. Contrats!
