Application Notes for ADB I/O

On this page we will add application notes.

Audience Opinion Meter (AN-1)

ADB I/O can be used to get user input from remotely placed keypads to the Mac. This can be used in behavioural experimentation, audience opinion measurements and elections in classroom setups but also in other applications like entry control of rooms in combination with electric door locks.

Example: 20 people sitting in a room could each have a keypad with three buttons. Each button would return a value that would let these 20 people "vote" on how they feel about something that they are watching (e.g. a TV show, a lawyer, a commercial, etc.).
