A design film festival 2011

By |2017-12-04T21:47:36+02:00October 27th, 2011|design, documentaries|0 Comments

Conceived by Anonymous as a film festival dedicated solely to design, A Design Film Festival 2010 launched in Singapore and has travelled to Berlin, Taipei, Kaohsiung and Bangkok. The festival is an annual celebration of films dedicated to architecture, fashion, photography, street art, motion graphics, technology and the subcultures of design. In 2011, the festival returns with a brand new line-up, an expanded programme and new collaborations. Here is the website: http://www.designfilmfestival.com/   http://vimeo.com/30069465

interaction design prototyping tools

By |2016-01-12T21:09:33+02:00May 14th, 2011|design, Interaction Design, user experience design (UX)|0 Comments

  This post is about free and commercial (most are online) prototyping tools that can be used for interaction design and user experience design. I try hard to categorise these tools in different sections according to their major scope, functionality or purpose, but in many cases these can be used in different design practice contexts. Feel free to provide corrections, suggestions and any other feedback.   Charts Lucidchart :: http://www.lucidchart.com/ Mindmaps UML Diagrams Collaborative in real-time creately :: http://creately.com/ Wireframing FluidIA :: http://fluidia.org/ experience thread Open source not stable flairbuilder :: http://flairbuilder.com/ productplanner :: http://productplanner.com/ Mockflow :: http://mockflow.com/ Pidoco :: https://pidoco.com Paper/Digital pototyping & mockups mockingbird :: https://gomockingbird.com/ Balsamiq Mockups :: specialized tool, commercial - $$ creates high level mockups in a "hand drawn" style Cross platform and integrative (for Confluence, JIRA, XWiki) http://www.balsamiq.com/products/mockups/desktop axure http://axure.com/ Storyboarding Balsamiq http://www.balsamiq.com/products/mockups/desktop   Screen Design and Interface design ForeUI:: http://www.foreui.com/ Pencil Project :: [...]

LEDs & resistors

By |2016-01-12T21:09:35+02:00April 18th, 2011|electronics, technology|2 Comments

  To calculate the resistance when powering a LED use this: R=(Vpow-Vled)/I R: is the needed resistance Vpow: is the voltage of our source or power supply (e.g. battery) Vled: voltage of the LED I: the maximum of current that goes through our LED. for a 2V (diode forward voltage) LED we need 20mA =0.02A (diode forward current) So, for instance, if we have a 12V battery then: R=(12-2)/0,02= 10/0.02=500 Ohm Another example is the use of multiple LEDs in an array. So, for an array of 4 LEDs with diode forward voltage 2V, diode forward current (0.02mA) and a Vpow of 12V we need: 4 x 1 array uses 4 LEDs exactly +12V R = 220000 ohms each 220000 ohm resistor dissipates 0.088 mW the wizard says the color code for 220000 is red red yellow the wizard thinks 1/4W resistors are fine for your application together, all resistors dissipate 0.088 mW [...]

CyanogenMod 7.0 stable is out

By |2016-01-12T21:09:35+02:00April 11th, 2011|android|0 Comments

CyanogenMod 7.0 stable version is now available: 1, 2 It includes Android 2.3 Gingerbread stock platform (actually Android 2.3.3), app2sd capabilities, root access, incognito mode for the Android Browser, CPU frequency adjustments and clocking through governor selection, OpenVPN & SIP, USB/WiFi/Bluetooth tethering, FLAC support, an FM Radio player, play/pause with camera buttons, trackball wake and a number of features, changes and enhancements over the original rom. There are some issues still that I have identified, most of them comming from the original Android 2.3. For me these include: Exchange/Corporate sync issue: 1 Bug in unchecking Background data box: Issue 2931 Answering delay: 1,2,3, (probably related to the exchange sync bug. both of them seem to be caused from the issue that causes receiving broadcasts to stop after some time.) CHANGELOG 7.0.0 Common: Android 2.3.3 (Gingerbread) - Google Common: Fixes and changes from AOSP master - Various Common: ClockworkMod Recovery 3.0: [...]
