The code is written in C, though since this video was done it has evolved. Hardware in this an ARM 7 LPC2138. The new version runs on the ARM 9.

Very nice. And I like the name Guss. Good video and very informative. Someone with no knowledge of this subject can completely understand.  Keep up the good work.
