If you happen to be flipping through the April 2009 issue of SERVO Magazine, you might just notice an article about ioBridge and the IO-204 being released. SERVO is one of our favorite robot/hobby/hacking magazines and we were thrilled to see the write up. Thanks so much! SERVO is also sponsoring the Bay Area Maker Faire 2009. We will see you there…
SERVO Magazine April 2009 Issue with ioBridge
Every time we check in on Jay of thecapacity, he is mashing up more technologies to wreak havoc on his co-workers, friends, and/or wife. This time Jay has created a remote controlled Airsoft Gun that is sighted using an IP camera and controlled using the feedback from a Wiimote — all from his Internet web application. A harness supports the gun which allows the gun to aim using a servo. The trigger is also servo controlled and linked to the trigger of the Wiimote. The ioBridge allows Jay to be anywhere in the world to reign terror on unsuspecting victims. On thecapacity blog, you can find some cool YouTube videos of the making of the system and see him take down some space invaders.
