What now?<\/em><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">Assuming you have bought your web platform from one of the Dangerous Prototypes official distributors, it will already have the ds30 bootloader installed in its dsPIC33 microcontroller. This means that you do not need a hardware programmer. Instead, you can upload your application programs direct to the web platform using the ds30 Loader application and a normal USB cable connected between your web platform and your computer.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\"><strong>Web platform hardware design:<\/strong><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">The Dangerous Prototypes web platform is a tiny server designed for networked hacks where a full PC is inconvenient. There\u2019s lots of interesting projects that bridge the internet to microcontrollers, but most of them have a PC in the middle to handle network stuff. This business card size internet appliance can connect to web services, control physical objects from a browser interface, or email sensor status reports; no PC intermediary required!<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">This isn\u2019t our first small server. Ian designed a popular web server on a business card featured at Hack a Day. The new web platform is also in the profile of a business card, but everything else is kicked up a notch. The microcontroller is a fast dsPIC33 (80MHz\/40MIPS) with twice as much program space, DMA (transfers between peripheral and memory without CPU intervention), hardware maths functions for digital signal processing. On the downside, the dsPIC only sinks\/sources 4mA on its I\/O pins, compared with 20mA for most (some) other PICS. There\u2019s also a simple USB connection for firmware updates and communication with a PC.<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"http:\/\/www.seeedstudio.com\/depot\/web-platform-assembled-p-582.html\" rel=\"nofollow\">Available now for $40, including worldwide shipping<\/a><\/p>\n<p>Documents and Software: <a href=\"http:\/\/www.seeedstudio.com\/depot\/docu\/webplatform.rar\">Click to download<\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>The Dangerous Prototypes web platform is a tiny server designed for networked hacks where a full PC is inconvenient.
