Random wire?

Random wire?

Postby Clarkus » Wed Apr 25, 2012 1:39 pm

Is there any possible way to negate the randomness of the wires re: diffusing?

I want to use this as a prop, but without any sort of reliability, it could waste a lot of shooting time...

I imagine that I coudl hack it to get that effect... but I have 0 experience programming hardware, and I don't want to dive in unless I know it's possible, or that there isn't an easier way...


Thanks!

The behavior can be easily changed with reprogramming. If you have an FTDI USB to serial cable or adapter, it's fairly easy. I could make the code changes for you.

OR, if you are willing to pay a nominal fee (say, $7 if you are in the US) I can ship you a reprogrammed ATmega328 chip with no randomness. If you are overseas, I'd need to charge more for shipping.

Sadly, the prop plays in a couple of days...

HOWEVER!

You have encouraged me to have a go at it, so we'll see what happens.

Seems to be a skill I should delve into anyway...
