Hi Everyone
My family and I have been sick and I am dragging my butt around. I would like to complete the 3rd tutorial soon though. I want to show new users how to just get "off and running" by flashing with proprietary software(I'll do a Linux/Jtag one later), to use a terminal emulator and to run some simple commands at the elua shell. I just can't think of anything simple commands that would also be interesting. Any suggestions? I am using the Luminary LM3S8962 board. Thanks for reading-Patrick _______________________________________________ eLua-dev mailing list [hidden email] https://lists.berlios.de/mailman/listinfo/elua-dev |

First a question: Are you intending to just show the computer screen or the MCU as well? - you can do things like use some demos that use PWM to play audio, blink leds, use the display if the 8962 EK has one etc.. vs you can show some some basic Lua code & some term-using examples/demos The audio pwm demo might be one that could be a nice way to handle things if you are just using the screen recording and mic since the mic can pick up on that? Depending on the goal of the tutorial you could show Lua basics or eLua basics. On the one hand you could show how to use loops and flow control in Lua on the other hand you can show control of peripherals? Or, maybe a mixture of both (changing tone on PWM or brightness on LED))? Personally, I might suggest that since you're demoing putting this on an MCU that the initial focus might be on showing a few features of how it makes use of that hardware, and how you can try different options on the fly without reflashing or developing some sort of custom remote control protocol. If anyone else has any particularly neat ideas, certainly chime in :-) > > Thanks for reading-Patrick > > > > > _______________________________________________ > eLua-dev mailing list > [hidden email] > https://lists.berlios.de/mailman/listinfo/elua-dev eLua-dev mailing list [hidden email] https://lists.berlios.de/mailman/listinfo/elua-dev |
