Today we had Donald * Arran * Colin * Jon * Mike * LesIt was a less techy meeting today, with general chat being the order of the day. We started by taking a look at Mike’s new toy A Kogan Agora 7” Tablet PC From http://www.kogan.com.au/shop/7-inch-tablet-pc-android/ Mike is still getting to grips with it, but initial impressions are very good. The device has a 1Ghz ARM CPU, and is running Android 2.3.3 (Gingerbread).
This week, Jon did a follow up on last weeks openshot talk with questions and answers session about openshot.

Introduction - The AVR Timer The timer systems on the AVR series of Microcontrollers are complex beasts. They have a myriad of uses ranging from simple delay intervals right up to complex PWM (more on this later) generation. However, despite the surface complexity, the function of the timer subsystem can be condensed into one obvious function: to time. We use timers every day - the most simple one can be found on your wrist.
Jon gave a talk on video editing using openshot. Les recorded the sound and video during the talk. A very informative session, thanks to Jon and Les.
