KI Notes: Brilliant display technology – small hand-worn device projects full-field display when held toward eyes. Most of the processing and control takes place on the KI host, allowing small size and flexibility. Maintainers made regular use of the KI technology, but it was evidently on the verge of being available to the D’ni elite.

Success!

C-Class KI are now able to transmit approved data types between ages. All DRC Members, Restoration Engineers, and Explorers should upgrade to a C-Class KI if they haven’t already.

The D’ni inter-age technology baffles me, but I just piggyback the translation hack and voilá. Also, version 0.89 of the software has fixed most of the graphic anomalies.

C-Class KI Update (Just so you know what I’ve been up to.)

  • Switched display modes (C-class KIs have 15 display modes.) Slightly more viewing area, cleaner interface.
  • Translation hack improved.
  • D’ni/Roman alpha font display revision – all characters more legible.
  • D’ni/Arabic-decimal numeric font conversion and display revision – digits 0 through 5 only.
  • Message/Journal/Image filing system on D’ni Ki host initiated.
  • Information list mode being implemented.
  • Larger image display.

Also spent some time on the high-band “D’ni to surface” connection for Mysterium. Seemed to work well. Some sound issues reported.

All DRC Members, Restoration Engineers, and Explorers who have not upgraded to a C-Class KI should do so ASAP. The following updates will be applied to the KI Host sometime in the next few weeks.

C-Class KI Updates

  • Settled on display Mode 9 (minimum) and 11 (maximum).
  • Currently converting to GMT, with optional offset for individual zone preferences. When lake lighting is functional this may need to be reverted to 30 hour D’ni time to avoid confusion. Discuss.
  • D’ni/Arabic-Roman – characters and digits now complete.
  • Message/Journal/Image filing system on D’ni KI host functional.
  • Information list and filing mode now functional.
  • Frequent “messagee” list and filing mode now functional.
  • Preset groups for other KI wearers in current age or subset of current age available.
  • Instant communication within Maintainer defined age zones (Mode 9.) Delayed communications elsewhere (Mode 11.)
  • Sound capture tests scheduled.
  • Age location not functional. Signal and calibration required.
