Progress Progress Progress



Progress Progress Progress: We are making progress, though it won't be in time for tomorrow's prototype due date! As of now, our TTL reader has yet to arrive, and construction of that portion of this project is slow, if not nonexistent :/ Our group is having a somewhat difficult time deciding when we are going to meet Mr. Massad, something that needs to be done soon enough. Otherwise, today I was able to pick up our (FREE!!!!!!) magnetic stripe cards from Gebco Hawaii - http://gebcohawaii.com/- Thanks to our buddy, Andrei Puchert <---, the cards were ready for pick up at the front desk. Though the cards were not "much", and certainly not the least of our troubles, it was nice to finally get some piece to this extraneous puzzle figured out. I sent Mr. Puchert an email making sure that the cards had numbering data within the magnetic stripe (cards are numbered outside of the stripe, as shown).
I've also asked him if he could lead us in the right direction in finding a compatible software that corresponds to the cards and TTL reader. Hopefully these cards will turn out just fine. Thanks again Gebco Hawai'i!!!!!
