Very interesting indeed. I'm having trouble reading the time axis but it seems to be more than just a EMF spike - how long is the duration of it really?

The high spike lasted about 20 minutes total.

That's a pretty long spike you got there, or to quote the late John Wayne: Is that a spike a see before me?

Makes you wonder though - go figure!

EDIT: Seriously, that is evidently something - a nearby refrigerator going off? Obviously I'm a skeptic too. But as an example: If I was to travel back in time, say to be around the birth of Christ, and pulled out my smartphone to make a video call and order pizza - I would soon be surrounded by a growing number of skeptics that would eventually turn into an angry mob likely to stone me to death. Generally, people fear what they do not understand and tend to always shoot the messenger.

Well, it's been a while since I've posted anything in regards to this project as I have been heads down working on it as well as in the field on Paranormal Investigations testing it. We just released version 2.5 of our software onto our prototype boxes and will be using them in the field again this weekend. So I thought I'd share this video update we did. It's a little length (16min), but if you have trouble sleeping, this may be the cure. http://player.vimeo.com/video/43668457

With no disrespect whatsoever to Dave and his technical prowess, whenever I read about this project I can hear the Ghostbusters music.
One day, all this too shall parse.

We have official NJ Paranormal Group Shirts, but often I wear my Ghostbusters shirt on investigations as a joke. :lol:

Well, it's been a while since I've posted any updates about the Pandora's Box project.  I'll have lots more to post in the coming weeks including having upgraded to a Netduino Plus 2.

 

I just got back several of my prototype boards from OSHPark.  Pictures hardly do the cool Purple boards justice.  These are all the boards I've designed for inside Pandora's Box with the exception of the shield which will link them all together and provide a Real Time Clock and a few other features.  Starting Top Left in first row are, 5 Way Tactile Button board, Temp / Humidity / Barometric Pressure Board, SPI LCD Backpack. Then the middle is the 9 Degrees of freedom boards (Accel, Gyro, Magnetometer), Lower right is the LiPo Charger / Fuel Gauge / LiPo booster and finally in the middle lower is a 4 EEProm memory card (Ignore the duplicate temp sensor on the right).

 

This will all be going into Pandora's Box Prototype Version 3.0 to try and eliminate the spaghetti and firm up the orientation of the sensors.  This should also help shrink the project just a bit not having so many breakout boards.

Oh wow, cool. When you get these assembled--and then in your box, can you share more photos? I love how your project is coming together so nicely. Eagerly awaiting your next update, Chris

Dave,

 

The breakouts look great, it will be interesting to see them working. Do you plan to sell any of them? The charger is of interest particularly.

 

While I haven't done much in the paranormal area, my 1 experience was on a Christmas eve 10 to 15 years ago. In the Dry Tortugas at Fort Jefferson (maybe 11:00pm), while I didn't see anything, there I could definately feel a presence.

 

I would love to go back with one of your boxes.

 

Chuck

One year ago today, this was Pandora's Box sitting on the bench being prototyped.  I've been so crazy busy with it that I haven't posted any info in a while.  After a lot of requests via twitter and Facebook I threw together a quick video update on my iPhone tonight and will get it uploaded in a bit.  I'll work on a more formal video update and write up very soon both for the Netduino community as well as all the paranormal investigators patiently waiting around the world to get their hands on Pandora's Box.

Sorry for delay. Upload issues. It's close to 20 minutes. Enjoy!
