Wow, it has been an entire year since I last updated with a new photo gallery on the front page. It was time again in Wellington for the 10th annual Chinese New Year parade, and I was yet again out there with my camera.
Orcon Usage Widget for Android
I spent a couple of hours on Sunday developing a quick and dirty widget to monitor data usage on Orcon. It displays total usage for the month, total usage allowed on your plan, and a percentage of your total plan used so far. You can download it from the market by scanning the QR code below with Barcode Scanner, clicking on the barcode on your phone, or search the market for ‘Orcon’ (its the only Orcon related app on the market right now).

Wellington Sevens 2010
If you didn’t get to be in Wellington for the Sevens this weekend, here is a selection of what you missed
Intervalometer
I started this project all the way back in April 2009. I designed the hardware, wrote the software, got it all built, and then I moved house. Finally, I have gotten back to it and finished it off, adding in the last bit of functionality I hadn’t quite finished yet.
Basically, this is a small box you can connect to any camera that accepts an external trigger. It is designed for Canon DSLR cameras, but can probably be adapted for any other camera with a trigger input.
Features include: manual shutter, bulb mode (click to open, click to close), delayed shutter, repeated shots (for time lapse etc), and delay from external trigger (e.g. trip a laser beam, sound trigger, etc).
