Good afternoon,

I have just uploaded four photos of a tricorder I built a few years
back, using a bx24 as the main processor. This is not a toy, but
rather a real device that can measure many things, including very
magnetic fields, pressure, sound, color spectrum, temperature,
humidity, acceleration, toxic gasses, flammable gasses...
There are more that could be list.

Some features include long-life battery pack, charging port, fuel-
proof steel case, backlit LCD, tough custom-built membrane keypad,
and of course lights and sounds to simulate a "real" tricorder:)

Anyways, this was all possible because of the capabilities of the
bx24. I have maxed out the RAM and EEPROM, with a bit of cleverness
even more features could be added.

It has a menu configuration, with nine main menues, and many
submenues. System functions include password protection for certain
areas, "Hazard Alert" alarm functions, the capability to record any
data in various time increments (up to two days straight), and there
are more.

I list just some of the main features here to give you a flavor of
what the bx24 can do, even if I haven't utilized all its potential.
And, I don't have a website, so I won't list _everything_, but at
least you can see what has been done with this project.

I carry this tricorder around literally every day in my backpack,
and have had _many_ uses for it. Although, without the ability to
detect life forms (aside from its PIR), or geologic underground
formations, it is not as exciting as on the show:)

Anyways, a few years ago I mentioned this on the list, but never
had a digital camera to take pictures. So, here are pictures now!
