使用iPhone跟踪您的睡眠週期
Nico今天早些時候看到了我們的Sleepyti.me帖子並寫了一個iPhone提示:
While Sleepyti.me is pretty neat, what’s really awesome is using your iPhone as a sleep sensor. I’ve been using Sleep Cycle for a few years now. It’s an app that uses the motion sensors in your iPhone to detect when you rise in and out of deep sleep based on your movements. You tell it what time (round about) you want to wake up and it wakes you up at the best possible moment in your sleep cycle. So if I tell it I want to get up at 8AM and 7:15 is actually a perfect time for me to wake up feeling refreshed, the alarm will go off then to wake me when I’m out of deep sleep. It’s sweet! Best buck-for-an-app purchase I ever made.
這是一個非常優秀的應用程序,Nico。我們很樂意聽到讀者在他們的Android手機上使用類似的東西!
使用數碼相機測試紅外遙控器
湯姆寫了一個簡單的診斷測試:
The other day I was trouble shooting my universal TV remote. Something fishy was going on and I needed to start from the basics and move up. I replaced the batteries but there seemed to be no signal being sent to the television (this particular remote doesn’t have any sort of indicator on it). To test and see if the remote was actually beaming anything out, I pointed it at my smartphone’s camera (I think this should work with just about any digital camera) and I was able to see the infrared output of the IR LED on the front of the remote! Score!
非常聰明,湯姆。我們將在我們每一個不斷增長的Rolodex偷偷摸摸的麻煩射擊技巧中提交這個。
在便宜的發光的複活節彩蛋

Loved the LED Easter Egg post from earlier today, but not everyone has a cache of LEDs laying around. I followed a tutorial I found on the web that kept things simpler… instead of batteries and LEDs, you just stuff the eggs with slender glow sticks from the Dollar Store.
作為最後一刻黑客,使用熒光棒絕對比一些LED過夜更容易。感謝分享!
