Overview

Tommelise is controlled by a software application running on your PC which communicates with a small microprocessor-driven controller board. I have made a point of making the controller board design very simple and keep the complexity of the system in the software, which is called firmware in such controller boards.

Tommelise is a Wintel application written in Visual Studio .NET 2005's Visual Basic language. unless you want to write a Linux compatable software app in something like Java or Python. If I get enough interest and demand I will use a code translator to do that for you since there are a number of good.

The controller board firmware was written in the Oshonsoft IDE and used their BASIC compiler for the Microchip PIC 18 family of microcontrollers.

I will be posting schematics and tips on how to make up this board as well as source and hex code for programming it.
