You can't generate an electromagnetic field just from software!! At some point you need a physical medium to accomplish that. In the case you point out he uses the DAC hardware on a graphics card to generate electric signals, controlled by software. Not really sure what you meant.
- marshray 14y agoThat's like saying "you can't calculate pi just from software". We're willing to presume the presence of some type of general-purpose hardware when we talk about software. Some of his projects require only the use of commodity hardware of the type sold at Walmart. That's categorically different than something that requires a custom built software defined radio transceiver. That said, this project looks pretty cool.
