Hey everyone, I'd like to announce a new project we're working on in the Kramer Lab at MSU. We're creating a platform (tools + software + environment) with the goal of creating a global, open access database of plant health and photosynthesis information taken in the field. Details are in the link below. We're really looking forward to collaborating with others in the Public Lab community as we develop a first testable unit!

That's awesome. The Teensy was a good choice (even if the bootloader isn't FOSS) and Paul Stoffregen, the Teensy developer, is a really great guy who will help answer questions if you get stuck. Not that I'm biased-- Paul's a member of Dorkbot PDX, my electronics club ;)

Awesome! Yes, actually one of the reasons we're going with the Teensy is precisely because of Paul. I've never met him but I've never seen a single individual put so much support behind a single product as he has on his forum, and he's prolific in adding features and responding to users.
Thanks for the confirmation that we're not crazy :)
Greg
