Overview

The Power Cube's Multithreaded Micro-Controller is a unit for handling all requests that may come to the power cube, such as throttle; but also capable of handling other requests simultaneously.

Details

Initial development of the Power Cube's Microcontroller is being laid out on a Propeller Chip - 40-Pin DIP Chip and unlike the Arduino that so many have become familiar with, this carries 8 processors that are referred to as "cogs" and handle events simultaneously while passing memory read/write access off in a rotational pattern between the 8 controllers.

Development Status

Currently, the Power Cube is on its fourth prototype. We are in need of CAD support to digitize the latest design. Those with relevant experience in (Sketchup, Solidworks, Inventor, etc...) are encouraged to Contact Us.
