Tricorder

[WarmFluffyUK]

Hi Folks,

First of all I want to get it clear I'm not a Trekkie, I just happen to like Sci-Fi and gadgets.

Now when I had a PDA with windows mobile on it, I went mad looking for applications and stupid stuff I could throw onto it. And one of them daft apps was a tricorder emulator. Basically you had the tricorder screen and audio effects that played when you pressed various on screen buttons. And I thought this would be very easy to make a version for the Wiz.

So my question is: Is anyone interested and should I bother? There's no point to it whatsoever and is just a bit of fun. I could even have it giving random analyzations

I love the idea! The Wiz already looks a bit like some hardware from the '60s TV series. ;-)

Haha, if you'd do something like that, why not make a codec screen ;D THAT would be awesome.

the sad thing is that this will probably be coded and polished before anyone touches a Gameboy emulator for the wiz.

Now, if you could make the power LED fire lasers........

I will see what I can do, I just need to write a software optical cavity to direct the beam from the power LED....

Speaking of LED, is it possible to change the color?

Vault is way better than Mountain Dew though, pick up a bottle of that the next time you run by a QuikTrip.

Oh yes, I started writing it, here's a sneak preview:

Scan button fires of a scan sample. up down buttons beep, all 3 buttons light up when pressed. little arrows move up and down slowly, faster when scanning. the up down arrow buttons will select different scanning modes.

I haven't uploaded it yet as I want to at least have some scanning results happening
