Big e-manufacturing knowledge dump coming "someday"

I haven't really talked about the Trancevibe project in a while. With the whole moving and vacation thing it kind of got shuffled onto the back burner a couple months ago (have I really lived here that long?) and never revived. There's also this huge uncanny valley between making and selling a couple of something on the down-low to a small-knit

He bought some buzz buzzes to test last night. Idea is we make control box with universal plugs out both ends (one for USB, one for vibe of your choice) and voila. You can buy a vibrating bullet or DIY to a vibe of your choosing and connect it to the box.

Thanks! I'll keep you updated on progress, that is when progress is made at least ;) My RL schedule has been a bit hectic.

Besides the modularity and packaging Jane mentions below, I expect to have a beat-reactive Blinkenlichten and RGB LED footprint on the board just for giggles - and it can double as my weather-forecasting crystal ball - but most importantly, a USB bootloader permanently programmed on each chip that can be accessed by shorting a jumper on the board. This should make it easier for other hobbyists to customize the operation, add their own protocol extensions, etc. without an expensive chip programmer.
