Yesterday I got tired of manually testing out colors for the UI so I made a simple theme system and I can now swap the colors and gradients in an instant.

@amal or anyone with a collection of unimplanted implants any chance have or can take high res photos of each of them on a solid background?
The ones I was able to collect and edit from the internet are at best pixelated. They don’t look super good :neutral_face:



Also everyone, let me know of all the discontinued implants you can think of, DT or not (made in batches and that have a name, not custom stuff). I might not know some of them.
I can think of:
FlexNext
Spark
m31
xGLO
Sense52
Firefly
North Star

I only have a picture of the flexMT, not sure if it’s any better since it’s a light blue background.

Nah, I need them out of the pouch with an easy-to-detour background and possibly a macro lens. The problem is we don’t tend to keep them out in the open :man_shrugging:
In fact if someone could do that with the 2/4 sides I could map that on a 3D model…

Nice, I believe this is a flexDF? Or is it a TeslaFlex? I have two similar ones with different sized chips:



And correct me if I’m wrong, this is a flexM1:

I guess @amal might be the only one who can tell the difference?

Yeah, he can 100%
I could 98% confirm

The top one is a flexdf2 (ev2) or Tesla flex… both the same form factor… the bottom one is a flexdf (ev1)

ZINC wrote its very first NDEF message today.
Rejoice!

Also should ZINC have a little cyborg/robot companion mascot thingy?

Just a suggestion for a robot icon…

The more I look at the app and the UI design the more it makes me think of a sci fi lab genetics tank, alien style or some glass see through tablet. Maybe I’ll lean into that :thinking:

The robot ideas will actually come in handy for the first nfc based game :shushing_face:

I’ve been working on the NDEF features lately and I must say they’re an interesting challenge. I’m trying to figure out the most intuitive way to manage them. Something that’s easy for beginners but also fully fledged for advanced users. But most of all I want it to be expandable, allowing me to add new ndef types over time…

On the more technical side I finally wrapped my head around the different parts of an ndef record and I’m experimenting with the best way to process all that in code.

I’m reading and writing them successfully, so that’s cool!
