Gearing Up for the Weekend

Well, HumpDay is now over and the weak is drawing closer to it’s end.
I still have a ton of work left to do at work and have plenty of things that need to be done for this weekends remodel. If you have been following along you will know that we had to halt remodeling our bathroom in order to put in a new water heater. link. So this weekend we plan on getting to phase three which involves plumbing and some framing… we are hoping to lay some tile this weekend but I doubt it.

Stay tuned it could be an interesting weekend.

Extension of AS3Glue’s Blinky App

Recently I have been playing with the arduino quite a lot.
I have been working towards creating a pc based home security system that I could customize myself.
One of the goals to reaching the security system was to figure out how to get flash or php to talk with the arduino. This weekend I achieved that using Firmatta and AS3Glue. Since my sisters where down this weekend helping me with my water heater install I decided to make it interesting for them too. So below you will find a youtube video of my app. I will post source, and layout hopefully tomorrow.

-Edit:
Now you can download the Sourcecode for the video above.
blink+
You will still need to download AS3Glue in order to load the appropriate Firmata and have Serproxy.

Thanks for reading
