Hello Jake,
I retrieved your email address from the Sudo Room website. I'm in kind of a bind on an
art project and am seeking some hacking assistance. I'm an artist, curator,
consciousness researcher and novice inventor with a few designs for works of art that
include quantum digital signal processing (electron tunneling).
The signal emanates from a devise called a Random Event Generator and I need to use this
signal to control a water pump with a digital controller (photos attached). The REG
data is collected on an EEPC running Windows XP. I have the SDK for the REG and have
installed the API and other files suggested by the manufacturer. All seems to be well
with the PC and I am able to read and collect data, but for some reason I can't
allocate a Com Port to an external devise and it will not recognize either of my
controllers.
Our challenge now is to create a pass-through signal
from the PC to the pump via one of our controllers. I have a custom sensor controller
that has an Arduino and Linix system computer combined on the same circuit board as
well as a Raspberry Pi.
My question is this; would it be possible to connect with you or another someone who is
versed with this technology to help walk me though the setup? I know there is a
HardwareHackNight on Tuesday but unfortunately I'm scheduled to work, but you can
count on seeing me at future nights. I would be happy to come there any time but Tuesday
night, or someone could come to my shop in West Oakland. I don't have a lot of money
but if we could solve this issue I would be happy to make a donation to the Sudo Room or
pay a consulting fee to whomever was of assistance. The exhibit we're preparing for
is this Sunday and were planning on having the fountain up and running by Thursday.
I'm
confident that a person with the right skill-set could figure out this obstacle in just a
few hours.
Our project has recently gained the attention of local News as well as one of our team
members being recently interviewed by the BBC. With success, we may get a followup
feature story with the BBC.
With success, we'll be making art and technological history. Any response would be
appreciated.
