EPE Hybrid Computer by Petros Kronis
====================================

EPE Magazine, November & December 2002

Real-time computation of complex system behaviour is
greatly simplified by combining analogue and digital processing
techniques -- and that's exactly what we've done in this new
Analogue Computer design.

Features:

* 10 analogue amplifiers
* Each can act as an Adder or Integrator
* Eight co-efficient multipliers
* Three modes of operation, Compute, Hold and Reset
* Automatic or Manual control mode.
* ATOM microcontroller programmable in BASIC
* PCB carries all major components

Full step-by-step details are provided in our constructional
articles.

The software in the Harrier folders is discussed in
Part 2 of the Hybrid Computer article, December '02.
The programs are demos of a Harrier jump jet in vertical
flight. The digital one is standalone, but the analogue
version needs the Hybrid Computer connected and running.

Parts are available from the usual component sources. Please note
that EPE does not provide kits but many of the requirements can
be met by our advertisers.

The latest version of the software is available from
