Physput Version 0.2 Beta ready

We have taken the beta release of Physput Ver 0.2. It has more user friendly filtering action and in general should be easier to use than the previous version. It still needs some tweaking though. I'll be trying that as I find time. The main thing is that I instaloled MS Visual Studio 2010 successfully and got the PhysPut source to build properly. So far so good ...
Oh and also installed latest Arduino programming environment ver 21.

Gers motion switch- basics

Ger has been building a special movement triggered switch which is used in conjunction with an Arduino and PhysPut. Ger is close to finishing a new version of Physput which we will see over the next few weeks. The switch he has built above and demonstrated above is intended to be used in conjunction with a switch-operated universal remote control (this is a specialised piece of assistive technology) . We use a Sparkfun 5DOF gyro and accelerometer board to provide a set of movement signals which are processed to yield a switching signal which drives the universal remote control. In this example Physput is not required.
