    Default Re: Open source PBP bootloader

    wayneandlayne.com have a pretty neat solution for a bootloader, it uses two LED's as light detectors to receive the code that is "flashed" or "blinked" to your PC's monitor screen. One LED light sensor is for clocking and one LED light sensor is for the data.


    I'm not sure if this is actually a boot loader... or more of just a way of changing the message that this little kit displays...
    but I would think it could be modified to act as a boot loader.

    It may even work from a smart phones browser (it does play from a phones browser)



    Here is their actual programming web page where you can scroll down and click on the "GO" button and see it in action.

    and a description of their bootloader...

    Their project is open source but I'm not sure if the programming web page code is available.
