A Thousand Words

The team at Shift Sight has gone quackers.  We resemble ducks right now: utterly calm on the surface and paddling like mad underneath.

The story I want to tell you about Jade is coming together.


Thank You

First and foremost, I want to thank you for your patience.

The Jade reveal was posted with the foreknowledge that it was a high-level, technical overview.  If you have questions about what you have read, I am confident that it means that you are a sane human being.  We have not been publicizing what is posted, as it is not a good fit for the media.  No press releases yet and no attached fundraiser.

The website overhaul in progress has the answers to your questions. 


Preview

Renderings, animations, and video are currently the lion's share of our overhaul work.  To satisfy your appetite, I have posted snack-sized pieces of our storyboards.  There are presently four videos underway, all in different stages of development.

I may abandon one video out of the gate, as the speed of our rendering PC is the bottleneck.  We simply do not have time for the necessary number crunching.

Picture
Each video describes a different aspect of Jade in language that anyone -- from not technical to highly technical -- can appreciate.  Shown is the introduction to the Code video.

Picture
There is also some explanation about the two screens.  I am working on screen art that explains how you can mix-and-match programming, electronics, and engineering functions / applications.

Picture
I also have a step-by-step walk-through of writing code on Jade.  Shown is the immediate mode, familiar to those of you that grew up with a computer from the 80's.

(Jade will also offer a full-featured IDE.  No matter what workflow you choose, the purpose is to get your code doing something as quickly as possible.)


Picture
Jade presently has an on-screen mascot that offers hints, tips, and reminders.  (Don't worry, this is not a reincarnation of Clippy.)

It's a cat, because, well, cat videos.

Picture
There is also a step-by-step electronics video that shows how Jade differs from everything that has come before it.

Via patent-pending technology, Jade protects the parts that you build with.  Part of the experience entails no distractions -- neither broken parts nor broken wires.

Some Drafts

Undoubtedly, these renderings below will raise more questions than they answer.  Stay tuned as they will likely find their way into the website overhaul or videos.
