The next Pleo Video will be posted soon.

We have finished shooting, after post and rendering we will have the "Bonez and his Thorocotomy" video online. So while you wait here is a Peek

Since the previous two videos have proven to be so popular we have decided to make a series. Starting with this weekend's episode "Bonez and his Thorocotomy", we will shoot a weekly episode and detail each piece of the Pleo dinosaur. So far we have discovered 1 of Pleo's 6 processors. I have also heard rumblings of a replacement battery pack for Pleo that can make him run twice as long! Stay tuned for more updates.

So Pleo's cpu that runs the camera is a Phillips NXP LPC2103F

This CPU is a 32 Bit ARM CPU with 8k of RAM, 32k of flash, 10 bit ADC, 2 UARTS, 2 I2C busses, and SPI & SSP.

The pinout for the CPU

Now that I have the pinouts I can ohm out the J105 pins to the CPU and see what we get.

Here is the long awaited brain surgery video, enjoy!

As I type this we are shooting the Brain Surgery Video. Here is a sneek peek. Video to come soon!

Well you knew it would happen before too long. Pleo would be taken out of his
skin.
Pleo has 3 parts to his skin. The head piece, the torso peice, and the tail piece. If you look closely
on a Pleo you can see where these pieces have been glued together.

As we all know Pleo has a USB port. I have some utilities that let me see what is going on with USB. Here is a dump of Pleo's "Device Descriptor".
