I'll comb through emails, messages, and forum posts and get in contact with those of you in a chronological order. Expect an email in the next day or two with more info.

And of course, I can't tell you how happy I am to hear that you guys are still using and enjoying these relays. Thank you all for your ongoing support!!! I can't wait to get more of these out there for everyone to use
Well, like I said, my car is hibernating for the winter so I can send you my relay in advance if that helps.

I thought for sure no one noticed . Indeed auto top is an implemented and very low hanging fruit compared to the rest of the system.

The system is composed of many sub functionalities and can be expanded so I will eventually post a write up but to produce black box kits for other members will be near impossible. I devote as much free time each night as I can to it but when you are doing the 3D designing and printing and wiring and circuit building and all software libraries...yeah it ended up taking way longer than planned.

Oh you saw my question just in time, nice one. And yes of course I've noticed and someone I won't name also briefly mention one year ago

Can imagine the work. You forgot to add the complexity of Matlab and other automation platform programmers :/ That can't be easy?! Sad to hear this won't install easy but I'm not 2worry.... you guys will find a way around this problem. If this is what you meant by installing blackboxes.

Without mentioning features... does it record & analise data real-time? how powerful (fast) is the microprocessor and what is it based onto?

It records data real time and pushes it to a web server I am running at my house. The server plots the data etc etc. I don't care to keep it 'secret' but I want to dedicate one thread to the info I describe rather than having it in 20 different places. Hopefully soon I will begin the process of documentation .

At this moment, I have two micros, a 1ghz arm full Linux distro and one 150mhz real time arm cortex m3 that talk to each other. Plenty of room for expansion on the Linux micro but the realtime micro is completely taxed; it can't handle one more interrupt service routine call, so only non-real time sensors from now on can be added

gezzzuss, sounds like Immortal Kombat already lolll yea got a ruff idea thanks.

Ps; screw the local wroot mate, lookup google cloud and their api access (pay as you use). Your very own linux stack and can use own encryption to make it your very own (i.e. home-like!). Silly cheap, etc etc. Oh and you get 2 full free months before enabling billing etc. Can't-be-missed-offer trust me. Had to share this sorry, look it up

pps: can't wait. [insert popcorn pic here]

I've got my own home web server and I authenticate with my own self signed https certificates; security is surely handled. Not to mention the server framework from a real time architecture simulator I helped write for my masters thesis: https://github.com/masc-ucsc/liveos.

In my experience, Google cloud services are great for computational workloads. Nothing to compute in my case, just plotting gps and displaying data sent from the car. Open street maps is great for that task

Comfort Top

Hi are you still producing these relays?

If you are do you ship to the UK as I would like one for a 2004, 986.

Whatever happened to these relay's? Did they get shipped and has anyone received and installed one?

If they are still being produced, I would like one as well.
