alt Hacker News> Earbuds don't have displays, so the only way to transfer data to/from them is either via bluetooth, or the UART contact pads. Bluetooth is pretty slow, you'd be lucky to get a consistent 1mbps connection, UART is easily the better option.
Does this means you can run a doom instance on each bud? Is it viable to make a distributed app to use the computing power of both buds at once?
This was a stretch goal, multiplayer. One earbuds versus the other. It's not that hard to implement but I've got a few other things to clear away first.
Using them for distributed computation though? interesting use of free will xD
