Chuck has been building a pinball machine for the last four years. One of the many sub-projects (rat holes?) as part of that endeavor was tinkering with DMDs (dot matrix displays). He has built a standalone DMD "pinball" clock as a result of this effort. It is called a pinball clock because it displays animations from popular 1990s era pinball machines in addition to the time.
Chuck will present:
As a bonus, a clock will be running during the presentation, to give you something to look at in case Chuck is too boring or in case he attempts to talk too long.
Chuck has a background in embedded software development and security, and was a founder of Au-Zone Technologies Inc. He is currently retired and enjoys tinkering with embedded hardware and software.
