Bigger isn\u2019t always Better.\u00a0 Try this for size\u2026..<\/p>\n
Introducing the Centipede 216, the newest member of the Centipede Family of products.\u00a0 The Centipede 216, like it\u2019s larger siblings, is a versatile device that provides hours of enjoyable electrical stimulation.\u00a0 And while the 216 is much smaller and less expensive, it nevertheless features the same power levels, wave forms and expandability via pods, as the 416 and 416-AC models.\u00a0 We have even calibrated the power levels, so a setting of, say, 30, on a 216 box will give the same sensation as a 416 set to the same level.\u00a0 Finally, state-of-the-art eStim is more adorable than ever!<\/p>\n
Our engineers were able to not only figure a way to power the 216 from a computer\u2019s USB port, but also to harness the compute power of that same machine, greatly reducing the circuitry needed inside the power box.\u00a0 Amazingly, the software that runs the 216 and the 416 products are nearly identical.\u00a0 For example, sequencer scripts written for a 416 box will operate exactly the same on a 216 without any changes.\u00a0\u00a0Use\u00a0the comparison table on this site for a detailed comparison between our three power boxes.<\/p>\n
What makes the 216 different from the other Centipede boxes, and we believe different than other products on the market, is that it is powered and controlled via a computer\u2019s USB port.\u00a0 By designing the power box this way, we were able to reduce both the size and cost of the unit.\u00a0 So while the Centipede 216 does contain a microprocessor to generate wave forms, the computer to which it is attached provides most of the needed computing power.\u00a0 For example, to process music\/audio into eStim signals, the 216 uses the audio playback features of the attached computer.<\/p>\n
Just like our other models, the Centipede 216 creates a web server. Once that service is running, you will be\u00a0able to use the browser on that device to control all of the features. This method of connection and\u00a0control creates a versatile and user-friendly visual interface.<\/p>\n
The heart of the Centipede 216 is the software suite. Installed on your computer from the DVD\u00a0provided, the software suite enables you to control the outputs based on specifications, audio inputs,\u00a0pre-programmed sequences and\/or external contact points. Below is the output control screen as it\u00a0looks on devices wide enough to display two across.<\/p>\n

All the software and firmware needed to operate the Centipede 216 are supplied in a self-extracting\u00a0ZIP file on a DVD. If you do not have a DVD drive on your computer, you can download the file from\u00a0our web site.<\/p>\n
The software in the Centipede 216 is open source. We expect this system to continue to develop\u00a0over time, as new features are added, new waveforms are created, and new ideas evolve.\u00a0Upgrading is simply a matter of downloading a new file, and installing it.<\/p>\n
If you wish and have the necessary knowledge, you can modify the software yourself to change the way the device operates or to add new features.<\/p>\n
Centipede 216 can do far more than output eStim signals. Like our larger power boxes, the\u00a0Centipede 416 and 416 AC, the Centipede 216 can be expanded by adding external boxes we call\u00a0\u2018pods,\u2019 which offer additional outputs. Four types of expansion pods are available now: dual channel\u00a0eStim pods, dual channel vibrator drivers, dual channel relay drivers, and dual channel 115-VAC\u00a0regulator pods. In fact, the Centipede 216 with expansion pods can offer up to 30 channels. With its\u00a0capacity and versatility, you can see why we tend to think of the Centipede 216 as a \u2018play space\u2019\u00a0controller!<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
