| Propeller + PC Applications with ViewPort - ViewPort is a graphical user interface (GUI) developed by Hanno Sander for use with the Propeller Microcontroller at run time. It utilizes the Propeller chip’s multiple processor design by devoting one of its processors (cogs) to provide an information conduit between the Propeller and ViewPort running on a PC. This information conduit is typically high speed serial over USB with communication at speeds up to 2 Mbps. This high speed communication, and in some cases judicious use of other cogs, makes a variety of applications possible. Examples include incorporating digital signal analyzer, digital storage oscilloscope, and spectrum analyzer into your project. |

| EEPROM Datalogging Application - A PE Kit Application. HyperTerminal application for testing the Propeller Eeprom object’s VarBackup, VarRestore, FromRam, and ToRam methods. It allows you define values stored by selected array elements and then copy the array from main RAM to EEPROM and visa versa. |

| PEKbot Application v0.9 - A PE Kit Application. A PE Platform mounted on a Boe-Bot robot chassis. This video clip compares a Boe-Bot following an object using infrared distance detection and proportional control, vs. a PEKbot following the same object using the same detection scheme and PID control. Use the download link to get the latest PEKbot PID IR following code. |
