The idea is to use the Pandora and it's I/O on the Ext-Connector in combination with an MSP430 I2C port Expander and LCD-display to make a 'stompbox' effects-pedal using hardware inputs and software processing.
Hardware
- Pandora portable computer
-
MSP430 Launchpad for prototyping(libs I wanted to use are not yet compatible, and I don't have the skills to rewrite them :) ) - I2C port Expander (TI PCF8574N)
- ext-connector and breakout-board
Software
- Puredata
- Possible external to talk to the GPIO-pins
-
MSP430-embedded code
Ideas
- Use Pandora touchscreen for direct control -> Kaospad-ish effects
- Do video-processing as well (GEM, pdp) over the video-out for live visuals (GEM may not (yet) work on OpenGL ES2)
- Rename/categorize, because of no more MSP430
- Next project -> replace Pandora with RasPi, which to embed inside the stompbox
