Wireless Linking?

Post by GMTechnical »

Is there any way to link two or more calculators wirelessly? (application, code, etc?)
I want to do things like talk to people (kinda like texting, except with calculators).

Thanks in advance!-:)

Timendus did some experiments and Brandon Wilson is doing others.
Ben Ryves, I think did something with IR (Infrared). See his journal here or around this forum.

Brandon Wilson is still coding applications to control bluetooth and wireless. And it is not that easy, you need to do a bit of circuits to externally power the devices. The calculator power output is very limiting.
You can always see what brandon wilson has so far around his site, right here. Check his svn, it has the code so far done.

There is nothing complete yet as far as I know.

There's always Sami Khawam's IR Link, though I've never built it myself and as such cannot vouch for its quality.

I forgot that. I only saw that once. And it seems "old".
