Sensors and Microcontroller Sites

• An easy microcontroller: the Basic Stamp , and Stamps in Class .
• Sensors:
  • Interlink , for Force-Sensing-Resistors, but their web site is singularly unhelpful. Need to call to order: (800) 340-1331)
  • Infusion Systems , visit the sensorium. Most sensors can work with the basic stamp if we put some thought into it. Also, see Mulder's site , the guy who founded Infusion.
  • Dual axis accelerometer/tilt sensor (Analog Devices ADXL202EB ): this is a great sensor.
  • the Sharp GP2D02 infrared sensor has basic stamp integration instructions and code.
  • human interface lab at U. of Washington.
  • Sensor Developments Inc .
  • Stanford/Princeton/San Jose HCI Course Stuff , including, for example, FSR info .
  • infrared range sensor information .
  • Other random links; try 'em, you might like 'em: 1 2 3 4 .

Max/MSP Sites

• Cycling74 , for MSP, and eventually all MAX support (apparently).
• UnMax , the unauthorized MAX site.
• CNMAT
• Ircam , for a zillion externals.
• Karlheinz Essl , cool patches.
• Peter Elsea has good stuff for Max as well.
• The MegaMax UI stuff.
• The MAX mailing list archive .
