FAQ

Why Arduino? A Raspberry PI is much more powerful.

Yes, but much more complicated to install, larger and takes MUCH more battery power. Are there any features missing? I don't think so. Noko is as good as it is.

Why this crappy LCD? There are cheap colorful touchscreens.

Yes, there are, but the LC display should be an easy-to-read clock and a lightsource. Besides, the Arduino ressources are very VERY limited. Noko doesn't need a touchscreen. He has buttons for a more haptical experience.

Is it possible to fast forward a story or an own MP3?

No, it is not supported by the JQ6500-Module.

Why does it not do or have XXX?

You got a good idea? Write me!

When did your work on Noko start?

I started wasting my time in March, 2014.
