Hardkernel recently released the oCAM module, which is an inexpensive way to create a visual processing system that responds to its environment. This month, DongHyun Yoo demon- strates a simple OpenCV applica- tion that can be used for object tracking with an ODROID-XU4. Several forum users recently designed retro gaming consoles built around ODROIDs in or- der to recreate their first gaming experiences, and have shared the designs with the community. We also pres- ent some great games, including Awkaster, a terminal-based 3D first- person shooter, Cut the Rope 2, where you solve puzzles in order to feed candy to a cute monster, Re-Volt, a fun racing game, and XMage, a client/server package for Magic: The Gathering. Venkat continues his technical series with a multiscope project, and Adrian shows us how to perform network penetration testing using Kismet.

OUR AMAZING ODROIDIAN STAFF: Rob Roy, Chief Editor I’m a computer programmer in San Francisco, CA, designing and building web applications for local clients on my network cluster of ODROIDs. My primary languages are jQuery, Angular JS and HTML5/CSS3. I also develop pre- built operating systems, custom kernels and optimized applications for the ODROID platform based on Hardkernel’s official releases, for which I have won several Monthly Forum Awards. I use my ODROIDs for a variety of purposes, including media center, web server, application development, workstation, and gaming console. You can check out my 100GB collection of ODROID software, prebuilt kernels and OS images at http://bit.ly/1fsaXQs. Bruno Doiche, Senior Art Editor What does our goofy dude is doing lately? Organizing all his collected music libraries that he got over the last 20 years. We think it is mostly an exercise in dubious taste, specially when we see Bruno going from Death metal to Depeche Mode for babies. But what we can do, right? At least he listen using headphones most of the time! Besides this task, he still is a sucker against David, that now trounces him on card games using his own ODROID pow- ered XMAGE server. Less users at the same server means that Bruno now loses his games faster than ever. Tough life. Manuel Adamuz, Spanish Editor I am 31 years old and live in Seville, Spain, and was born in Granada. I am married to a wonderful woman and have a child. A few years ago I worked as a computer technician and programmer, but my current job is related to quality management and information technology: ISO 9001, ISO 27001, and ISO 20000. I am passionate about computer science, especially microcomputers such as the ODROID and Raspberry Pi. I love experimenting with these com- puters. My wife says I’m crazy because I just think of ODROIDs! My other great hobby is mountain biking, and I occasionally participate in semi-professional competitions. Nicole Scott, Art Editor Nicole is a Digital Strategist and Transmedia Producer specializing in online optimization and inbound marketing strategies, social media management, and media production for print, web, video, and film. Managing multiple ac- counts with agencies and filmmakers, from web design and programming, Analytics and Adwords, to video editing and DVD authoring, Nicole helps clients with the all aspects of online visibility. Nicole owns anODROID-U2, and a number of ODROID-U3’s and looks forward to using the latest technologies for both personal and business endeavors.

James LeFevour, Art Editor I’m a Digital Media Specialist who is also enjoying freelance work in social network marketing and website administra- tion. The more I learn about ODROID capabilities, the more excited I am to try new things I’m learning about. Being a transplant to San Diego from the Midwest, I am still quite enamored with many aspects that I think most West Coast people take for granted. I live with my lovely wife and our adorable pet rabbit; the latter keeps my books and computer equipment in constant peril, the former consoles me when said peril manifests. Andrew Ruggeri, Assistant Editor I am a Biomedical Systems engineer located in New England currently working in the Aerospace industry. An 8-bit 68HC11 microcontroller and assembly code are what got me interested in embedded systems. Nowadays, most proj- ects I do are in C and C++, or high-level languages such as C# and Java. For many projects, I use ODROID boards, but I still try to use 8bit controllers whenever I can (I’m an ATMEL fan). Apart from electronics, I’m an analog analogue photography and film development geek who enjoys trying to speak foreign languages. Venkat Bommakanti, Assistant Editor I’m a computer enthusiast from the San Francisco Bay Area in California. I try to incorporate many of my interests into single board computer projects, such as hardware tinkering, metal and woodworking, reusing salvaged materials, software development, and creating audiophile music recordings. I enjoy learning something new all the time, and try to share my joy and enthusiasm with the community. Josh Sherman, Assistant Editor I’m from the New York area, and volunteer my time as a writer and editor for ODROID Magazine. I tinker with computers of all shapes and sizes: tearing apart tablets, turning Raspberry Pis into PlayStations, and experimenting with ODROIDs and other SoCs. I love getting into the nitty gritty in order to learn more, and enjoy teaching oth- ers by writing stories and guides about Linux, ARM, and other fun experimental projects.

The most significant advantage is that the console supports portrait mode as well as landscape mode for a much better gaming experience. Let’s see how he made this great console using simple design elements. Build the main frame The main frame was designed with Google SketchUp in order to make wooden blocks for CNC machining. All the material is birch plywood with a thickness of 18mm. The Being able to emulate games that are either landscape or portrait, design layout files are available in his Github at http://bit. one thing that you won’t be able to do is have less than the most ly/1XDGtBp. fun out of it. Guaranteed. Display unit Choose the 24 inch 16:10 ratio LCD panel for better gaming expe- rience. Since there are many retro games that run in 4:3 ratio, a 16:10 screen is better than 16:9 for a classic ar- cade game display ratio. Wood parts by CNC machining The native resolution is 1920x1200 WUXGA. The LCD part number is LTM240CL01. which is made by Samsung. A display frame bezel was made with wood pieces to give a nice vintage style. The console looks like a 1980s-era picture frame. Assemble the wood parts Assemble main frame with the base stand ODROID MAGAZINE 6 GAME CABINET Design layout files Mount the ODROID-C1+ The rear side frame of the display unit was made with 0.8mm thickness of steel plate in order to make the display frame more sturdy. There are a few 90-degree bends and screw holes for mounting the ODROID board, as well as an HDMI- to-LVDS video signal conversion board. The power for the ODROID shares 5V rail in the conversion board.
