android

Seeing the ridiculous price of high-end car stereo entertainment and navigation, I decided to build my own. I used a Samsung Galaxy Tab 2 7" tablet, a small Amp (to power the car speakers), equalizer (stabilize and boost levels and to route low-end frequencies to the sub-woofer Amp), USB power converters, various wires and other components and custom plastic fabrication (cutting plastic with an old soldering iron). Later on I added a steering wheel control to keyboard adapter that worked very well with Android.

North Wind was contracted to develop an iOS application describing the details of the Idaho National Laboratory. This app presents a virtual tour to prospective researchers, politicians, and others. This is a very visible part of INL's marketing strategy. I assisted in the development of the iPad app and ported the app to Android and small screen devices. I also continue to maintain the web version on North Wind servers.
