I compete in the local auto crossing groups with my old formula ford. For those who are not familiar with Autocross, this is a time trial sport held in a large paved area on a closed course usually less than a mile in length. Each car is assigned a class and who ever runs the…
Today I played around with the seek thermal camera, learning how to use the software and figuring out the general capabilities of this new device. Over all the device is pretty cool, and there are many uses that I can use this for on the race car despite the limitations of the software. Here is…
So I got a new toy today, I bought a Seek Thermal Camera attachment for my iPhone. This device turns your IOS or android device into a thermal camera! The resolution is not that great, but for the price its not too bad. The resolution of the camera is 206×156, with a 36 degree field…
Here is another successful project finished and delivered. The app was just released on ITunes a couple days ago after a short development cycle. It was pretty fun working with some new hardware, and writing the IOS application that interacts with the device. Forget Me Not Kid Alarm is an IOS application that communicates with…

Ha! that happened faster than expected. This doesn’t mean that the CurrentC servers were compromised, all we have here is some hackers who are phishing the internet to find some sucker who is dumb enough to open that email. This is the classic first step in hacking the system. The minute you open that email,…
Well this is pretty interesting. I have looked at signing up for this service, but I only have a single credit card that is setup for ApplePay, and I haven’t seen too many terminals where I can use it. To sign up this many users in this period of time should be a good sigh…
When it comes to your privacy, your mobile carrier is not the place to look for a secure private environment. It doesn’t matter how you connect to the internet, the mobile carriers are truly the man in the middle. When we sign up for a new phone, we authorize the carrier to take what information…
According to BGR, a 16gig IPhone 6 model has been seen in china. I guess some have been complaining about not having a 16gig model here in the US, but after owning a 4s with 161gig, I can tell you that it’s not a deficiency. You really do need more memory. with my Old 4s,…
Well, here we go again. The battle of the standards begins again. It seems that every time we get something that will benefit the consumer, someone else (late to the game) says otherwise. Not because it’s a better technology, but more often than not, it is because they want to control the standard. This really…
