Blue Melon gaat samen verder met eMbed Engineering onder de vlag van eMbed Engineering! Met het samenvoegen van beide bedrijven is een stabiele en slagvaardige organisatie ontstaan die flexibel is en garant staat voor kwalitatief hoogwaardige producten. Ons uitgangspunt hierbij is dat we u nu nog beter van dienst kunnen zijn in het ontwikkelen van elektronica. Het samenvoegen van beide bedrijven heeft ook geleidt tot een uitbreiding van het portfolio en een enorme toename van competenties. Competenties die uiteen lopen van hardwareontwikkeling op chipniveau, tot higher level embedded software op basis van embedded Linux met internet connectiviteit. Hierdoor zijn we in staat om met parate kennis de meest uiteenlopende projecten in korte tijd tot een succes maken.

Vanaf begin december is eMbed Engineering te vinden op www.eMbed.nl. Op onze vernieuwde website kunt u naast informatie over eMbed Engineering als organisatie een selectie van ons portfolio vinden. We hopen u met dit bericht volledig te hebben geïnformeerd over de ontwikkelingen bij eMbed Engineering. Als u vragen hebt over de situatie of de ontwikkelingen, dan kunt u ons uiteraard bereiken via onze contactgegevens.

Deze website wordt niet meer bijgewerkt, bekijk de nieuwe website van eMbed Engineering!

BM7505 Bluesense programmable Pure Data router

BlueSense products	Information and examples

Are you ready to extend your art's interactivity by measuring sensors, switching devices, detecting movement? With BlueSense you can do this from within your favourite application like Max MSP(tm), Pure Data (PD),Flash MX, Processing, C or VB.Net! BlueSense allows you to wirelessly connect a large number of sensors and actuators to your computer.

Our system has a few big advantages over competing systems:

• First BlueSense is truly modular. With other systems when you run out of inputs you're stuck. With BlueSense you can always add new modules.
• Our boards have been programmed with intelligence. Seamlessly you can use counters, rotary encoders, adjust sampling resolution, etc. All the tiresome work has been done for you!
• The modules have been fitted with upgradeable firmwares. Blue Melon is continuously working on new functions for existing modules which you will be able to download from our website.
• A minimum number of electronic components is needed. For example you can add relays directly without the use of any transistors!
• Are your modules placed on spots which are difficult to reach? You can use the BlueSense wireless boards. Multiple wireless boards can be used
• High data speeds over a cabled network. Most inputs and outputs can be updated over 1000 times a second.
• Software support for a large number of software packages like Max/Msp(tm), Pure Data, Flash MX, Processing, C, Java and others. BlueSense is supported on MaxOS X, Windows and Linux. The developer library is freeware.
• Physical computing Do you want to realize a setup without a computer? Our BM7505 Bluesense programmable Pure Data router is the solution!

Each board has its own function. All modules are connected to so-called router building blocks. Currently we offer modules for digital switch inputs/outputs, analog inputs/outputs, Stepper, Servo and DC motor control and control via internet. Because each module has its own function you will not be paying for any unused functionality. As a user you decide which components you use.
