Doing some more research, it seems like the sparkfun battery block will in fact boot the unit up when external power is applied (and keep charging) so long as the switch is left in the on position.
I'm pondering getting it along with their MicroSD board rather than wait on your custom PCB - is there a solid reason why I should wait? No offence, but it seems you're quite busy and i'd like to move things along.
@garethnelsonuk In the interim, how has the voice interface development been going?
I've been busy backing up my main laptop, so I haven't had a chance to try getting Jasper running on a Linux VM. I'm also still learning the ins and outs of Linux.
I'm not currently spending a lot of time on the software, got the basics needed for it to run but waiting until I have the finalised hardware before messing further.
So are you just looking to create a general-purpose platform for an implant that requires computing power or do you have any specific applications in mind here?
From what I understand, it's serving as a general purpose platform, and a sort of a network hub for other implants to link up to. See the discussion on Standardized inter-cyborg protocol.
Bumping this and asking again if anyone is able to assist me getting the silicone, if anyone has some spare even and would be willing to have my device shipped out and you coat before return that would be good.
I also have an amazon wishlist as posted earlier with most of what I need, but the primary thing i'm having difficult obtaining is the silicone or another suitable bioproof coating.
Hell, I might as well spam this here: my paypal address is [email protected] and my bitcoin address is 1NkGx7oc81jYjQ5ReiziRUC4v1cJ3jeHGS - If I can get together $193 I can buy the silicone and have it shipped to me.
Getting this project to work could lead to big things so i'm asking if anyone is willing to help out - right now it's very much on hold on the hardware side of things.
