> How can EvilDragon speed up the production of the DragonBox Pyra? > Points 1, 3 & 4 are already resolved. Given that funding is limited, how can we improve on 2.?

Oh, the truth hurts...

Yup, the previous thread is: https://pyra-handheld.com/boards/threads/chatgpt.99798/ 1677596334 Isn't the list of funding options interesting though?

If you've not tried the free ChatGPT-3 instance by OpenAI yet, I think it's becoming very helpful (or for $20 you can chat to a faster version). https://chat.openai.com/chat Anyway, I thought it would be interesting to ask ChatGPT about the Pyra development. ChatGPT-3's training set includes a...

I've corrected the order in the OP now. All the offsets are default zero on the pyra so order has no effect.

According to speedguide.net the speeds I'm getting are as expected for 802.11n: 1624915091 me@pyra:~$ sudo iwconfig wlan0 wlan0 IEEE 802.11 ESSID:"5GHz" Mode:Managed Frequency:5.745 GHz Access Point: 00:00:00:00:00:00 Bit Rate=150 Mb/s Tx-Power=20 dBm...

I'm getting 84Mbits/s on 5GHz wifi to a rasp pi gigabit ethernet connection. Its less reliable on 2.4GHz but goes up to 43Mbits/s. This is when sitting 3m from the router. I didn't test this before replacing the antenna. How does this compare to other pyra? 5GHz me@pyra:~$ iperf -c rasppi...

Thinking about this some more, the solder attachment would have been stronger if I'd made use of the chip antenna dummy pins. As long as the antenna cable feed and braid stayed straight I could have ran the core along the left three pins, and the braid along the right 3 pins. That would have...

Cheaper than a night in with a takeaway watching more Netflix. More exciting too.

I notice that Sparkfun are selling high-gain (8dbi) dual-band 2.4 / 5GHz wifi PCB antennas for only $2. I made a quick risk assessment; then disregarded it and powered up the soldering iron instead. Background The Pyra has two dual band AVX M830520 chip antenna on the right edge of the...

@aTc What's the right way to get scripts like these into the pyra repo? Should I create a pyra-bno055 debian package? Is it better to have separate pyra-accelerometer and pyra-compass packages? Are these more fundamental scripts that belong in pyra-scripts?

"temp1" is the battery thermistor "normal" status and is not really "22C". If the battery is too cold (<-5C) then temp1=-10C. If the battery is too hot (>40C) then temp1=60C. The thermistor in the battery is connected to the BQ24297 battery management chip and temp1 comes from the fault...

Ahh, that makes sense. Good.

Use case: I've had the music at full blast in headphones. I then want to quietly play something through the speakers in a public place. I stop my loud track and unplug the headphones. I browse for a sound I want to share with the someone sat nearby. I turn the volume wheel down before...

I don't think twl6030 is even loaded. me@pyra:~$ lsmod | grep palmas palmas_gpadc 20480 0 me@pyra:~$ lsmod | grep twl6030

I wasnt clear. I mean, I'd prefer the script to check the volume wheel every couple of seconds, even when there is no sound playing.

I'm confused: Why do we have both the twl6030_gpadc (written by TI) and the palmas_gpadc (written by NVIDIA) drivers in the kernel as options for the pyra? They look to do exactly the same thing but are coded in different styles. 'lsmod' shows that we use the palmas one. The volume control...

I think I'd prefer the script to check the volume wheel every couple of seconds,even when no sound is playing. It feels odd that the volume controls don't move until a sound plays. For example, I might have left the volume on full but want to start playing the next track quietly. So, I want...
