  1. Make logins last longer

    While assembling a recent order over several days, I was very frustrated by how often I had to log in. I can understand asking for my password before placing an order or viewing account details, but I just wanted to see the items in my cart. I don't think meaningful security is gained by not letting me stay logged in.

  2. Change calculation of human resistance of grove gsr sensor

    The formula that is given on page https://wiki.seeedstudio.com/Grove-GSR_Sensor/ results in negative resistance for values bigger than 512, and results in division by 0 for value 512...

    That seems to be incorrect?

  3. Use Virt2real for RC cars

    I checked video with 4WD robot and seen than there are no any RC with video feedback on it.

    I think it will be better if there are some more powerful thing like Virt2real board ( http://virt2real.com/content/kontroller-virt2real-virturilka ), based on TI DM365 and adopted for this kind of embeed.

  4. Please add the 5 GHz to your BeagleBone Green! Or launch the BeagleBone Orange with the 5 GHz only WLAN. Should be rather easy to do...

    Without doing my homework I think that the 5 GHz WLAN could be done just by WLAN controller and crystal changes and even the board could be essentially the same.

  8. India

    I wish we, the makers/enthusiast from India, can buy directly or from official affordable resellers from India. We are paying arm and leg, also the availability is less than the availability of the Unicorn.

    Please have some affordable shipping for India or setup a sales channel/warehouse/official resellers.

  9. Screw Shield Board for Industrial DIN Rail Enclosures

    Seeeduino and Linkit can replace and disrupt industrial PLCs industry. Your boards only need a Screw Shield with 5.08mm pitch screws and a screw shield PCB so it can fit in traditional Bud Industries industrial enclosures (those enclosures are very inexpensive).

    So the screw shield should meet Arduino connector specs and also needs the PCB to be sized such way that fits perfect inside the enclosure.

    Please see the PCB board currently offered by BudIndustries, which can be easily adapted to work like a screw shield for seeeduino platform.

    Yes, the Seeeduino ScrewShield will be bigger but will provide space…

  10. fix error in PCB price overview

    There is a small error in the PCB price overview. When you start, the color of the board is set to green with no additional cost. When you select red, $10 gets added. Change it to black and $20 gets added. Change it back to green, and the price total price goes back to the original, but the $10 or $20 from the previous selection stays in the screen.
    Also, the price doesn't get two decimals after the comma (purely a cosmetic thing). It should read $21.90 instead of $21.9

  11. should a new customer enter an incorrect phone

    should a new customer enter an incorrect phone number then updating the user profile does not fix the incorrect phone number that appears when the customer is asked to select the address that the parcel is to go to.

    Excuse the lengthy sentence fragments.

    This might cause people to re-enter the profile edit mode only to cancel an transaction that is well under way...
    That transaction cancel-ation due to user editing incorect phone number in mid transaction can cause (did in my case) the session / transaction to kick the user out of the website into its home-routers/modems homepage...

    Theoretically:…

  13. Smaller stensels

    My PCBs are all very small and I hand screen and place components. Any chance of getting a screen that is 10 mm or so bigger all around than the PCB.

    No need to pay high shipping costs for a screen that I have to cut up to use.

  14. Lotus version with a Picaxe chip

    The idea of combining the Grove system with an ATmega chip in the recent Lotus board is great. Working in the field of education, also using Picaxe chips along with a free flowcharting software (Logicator) we are dreaming of a same type of board with a 28x2 chip.

  15. Fix the responsive layout on windows

    you could tweak your responsive breakpoints.

    It's great that the site scales and works on mobile :D

    But on windows, the layout hasn't taken into account the fact that scrollbars take up some of the reported available screen width.

    With my 1200px wide monitor, this causes an unneccessary horizontal scrollbar.

    Hi Stian, thanks for your helpful information. We’ve started fixing it.
    Thanks again and have a great day.

  16. Only let an order be placed if the necessary files are uploaded

    I've had it many times that the board outline hasn't been provided, even when it had. It would be nice for the site to tell me that there is a problem so I can fix it there and then rather than wait for my order to be rejected.

  17. Develop a "gender bender" connector, which allows connection of a 1.2 Meg(5 1/4") floppy drive to a 1.44meg 3 1/2" drive support board.

    1.2M floppy drives have an IDE 34 pin edge connector(female).
    Usb floppy drive controllers have a 34 pin Female ide connector. Need an adapter: male to Male 34pin (cross connected), or similar to get a 1.2m (5.25") floppy to connect to a 3.5" floppy USB kit.

    Many users have OLD 1.2m floppies with data, which could be recovered, with a standalone usb reader. in General, READING is all that is needed.
    Passive Should cost Maybe $10 retail.

  18. Java open source development kit based on AzulSystems' Zulu / Open JDK.

    I am @NathanTippy from ociweb.com and we are building a light weight pure Java solution for the Grove Edison and Grove RaspberryPI platforms. We are using the Zulu JDK and Open JDK to avoid licensing costs. Analog, Digital and I2C work has already been prototyped and demonstrated.

    Would you consider sponsoring some or all of this work? We have one engineer (w/ 20yrs Java experience) working on this part time now and a number of interested and skilled engineers who could begin work on this quickly.

    This entire project is open source and BSD licensed to encourage wide adoption and…

  19. Pass the shipping consignment number to the tracking site.

    Pass the shipping consignment number to the tracking site.

    The order tracking popup is a terrible way to incorporate order tracking: use a proper page or a panel on the base page. I can't select text from the layered panel on my tablet browser.

    The track order link doesn't seem to pass the consignment number, which would make sense.

  20. Create waterproof Grove connectors

    If Grove (4 pin) connectors could be waterproof, that would make it easier to use outdoors/in harsh environments.

    Wouldn't have to be IP67 or IP68 compliant, just something a bit more robust that what exists.

    You'd need bulkhead connectors as well, so you could put a controller/batteries in a waterproof box, and the sensors someplace else.

    Under Consideration  ·  USB responded

    Hi Andrew:
    Thanks for your advice, we believe that waterproof function is important in harsh environments for groves. But since the sensor itself needs to be waterproof, we believe that an enclosure for the whole grove module may be better.
    Please let us know your opinion.
