Project HiJack is a hardware/software platform for creating cubic-inch sensor peripherals for the mobile phone. HiJack devices harvest power and use bandwidth from the mobile phone’s headset interface. The HiJack platform enables a new class of small and cheap phone-centric sensor peripherals that support plug-and-play operation. The source code and schematics are available on Google Code: http://code.google.com/p/hijack-main/. If you want to read more about how it works, “Hijacking Power and Bandwidth from the Mobile Phone’s Audio Interface” is a research paper about it. Check out the other videos below.

Have you listened to The Morning Jam aka “The Shareen and Joe Show”? If not, you should.

Check out all my photos of the famous Little Cupboard (seems to be something wrong with Picasa’s Slideshow):
