1st Generation
Webster Web Server |
I
designed and built a low power webserver for our
website. It was built with an 8 bit PIC microprocessor
running at 20 MHz just to see if it could be done.Click the
link to see how I did it. |
3rd Generation
Webster Web Server |
The
1st generation Webster just wasn't fast enough to serve
media rich pages so I built this web server to fix the
performance issues once and for all. This generation Webster
can serve up images and music without breaking a sweat
as it is built on a 32 bit processor running at 147 MHz. I
thought this would be the last of my designs but no, there
is one more. See below. |
4th Generation
Webster Web Server |
The
4th and (hopefully) final version of Webster. It is fast and
it is easy to build. Click the link for details. |
Computerized Picture
Frame |
It
had to happen eventually. I would have to computerize a
picture frame for the house. Not only did the frame come out
great but the software I wrote for it is awesome. |
