Nifty ways to interface Delphi with the physical world |

David | I needed a way to trigger a switch with Delphi and I think I found a
fantastic way to do that a more. Use a Phidget! http://www.phidgets.com/ Phidgets are an easy to use set of building blocks for low cost sensing and control from your PC. Lots of ways to measure and trigger physical items. I've already ordered a few phidgets and looking forward to working with them. |

My car passes the Plessey traffic signal control box near my house travelling south the kettle fires up. Each traffic control box has its own ID. If I ever need the alarm clock the lights come on the kettle fires up the telly comes on Sky news. In my sisters house switch the living room lights on the curtains close. I have 4 cameras I can access via my IP one covers my living room one the rear of the house one the front and one my bedroom, I set them up if I go away, whats next ????????? Well a kid who lives by me who was a pest always asking me to help with stuff got me interested in computer control stuff like on lathes and milling machines. Once I got one working tho I lost interest. That same boy however since went on to uni and he is very much into control systems. They are working on total home control via a remote that will be installed for under 2k if its electric it will work from control. I want it now ;-( Rita |
