The head of the electronics division would prefer to create a programmable computer as he has an idea on how to make it more compact.

alright, if he can make something that works, why not use it? But I just want to make sure the people in T.I get sufficent responsibilities

Agreed

Agreed.

OK, so if you are a part of aperture science I will be happy to help in a managing position. PTT is currently not operational, so if you want electronic engineers you must find them although make sure you find some that specialise in advanced array circuitry as well as at least basic thermister circuitry.

I suggested a programable computer because I find them interesting mainly. You would not be able to run pong on it. If you want to play pong you would need a system in which each "pixel" interacts with the pixel besides it. Rather then some circuit to control the whole thing at once. It would be difficult, but do-able.

One way you could do it is have a similar structure to the interaction between each pixel I was referring to before, but then use wifi and array to create a high resolution screen off to the side. Say 10 by 15 and at the dpp of 1 pixel per pixel? The main reason for the small screen is that the ball will be moving 1 pixel per clock. Even with a super fast clock of 0.5 (best scenario) it would take 7.5 seconds for the ball to get from one side to the other.

EDIT: Actually a low density screen may be better, say 1/4 Dpp to 1/9 Dpp?

Why a screen? Thats too complex. How about Photons and liquid crystal. Photons are blocked when its off and they go through when on. Just 1 pixle of photon will bounce around and little sections of the liquid crystal can be the paddle. Then again a screen could be possible... But each pixle would have to be very compact. but then then again how would u get the trajectory to compute????

EDIT: Does an array point deflect a photon? if so maby we could make some kind of paddle out of it electronicly that would be moving and generating pixle by pixle, insted of big blocky lcry sections.

Ima go and exparament u guys tell me what ya think.

an array as a paddle would be very good BUT photons dont last forever, they disappear after time. humph, its so hard

lol u forgot somthing! yes yes.. The wonderfull TPT consol! we can just set its life to 9999999! or u could even use the new update thing in tool section. We could use neutrons too, they move slower. Level 1=neutrons level 2=photons

EDIT: Hey you guys this update could give us the upper hand! If we jump on it and make some new things they will be likely to get front page!
some ideas:
#1. A ship or submarine with multiple realistic chambers (water equalization would enable better explodeing and sinking.)
#2. a color detector (useing the new FILT system.)

the new update is VERY helpful for us :D

I was just under the impression you wanted something electrical. Sounds like the photon idea would work fine though.
