Title: Bus Pirate with my Android Phone (OTG)
Post by: M2M on July 20, 2013, 02:29:25 am
First off, you guys Rock! I have had so much productive fun with BP and I just got it a few days ago. Here is a little thing I did to make a project weigh less.

When you are prototyping GPS M2M you don't always want to carry your laptop outside to get a signal. My boss discovered me pushing a cart loaded with my laptop/protoboard/GPS and BP rolling around the parking lot yesterday.

Looking around my cubical I realized that I had an OTG cable lying around. I grabbed my smart phone and after a quick download I was able to loose the cart and laptop completely.

My set up became GPS <==>BP<==>OTG<==>Android Phone running Android USB Serial Monitor (a free download from Google Play Store).

Thanks again for such a cool device. I look forward to playing with your other products as well.
