Yeah, nobody in class is going to suspect the kid with the arduino-type science project mess of wires duct taped to their calculator.
For those too lazy to read, that's how this works. An external micro controller talks to the calc through the IO port, and does the Wifi stuff, acting as a middleman.
Edit: I did not see the video.
I saw the video. It closes up nicely and is invisible. It can even re-download the programs if wiped before by the teacher.
Well, that teaches me to read AND click all links in an article.
You could just have read. It’s also mentioned in the main article how it was nearly hidden.
Click all the ads too please
For those too lazy to watch the video, the whole thing is eventually concealed within the calculator.
