How to Use KaKaRoTo PL3 Payloads on the TI-84

The PlayStation 3 is a video game console produced and distributed by Sony Computer Entertainment. The firmware of the PS3 has been hacked to allow for the installation of custom firmwares, or CFWs. In order to install a custom firmware, a USB controller with a payload must be uploaded and run by the system upon the PS3 boot. The TI-84 calculator has a USB controller that can perform this process. There are different payloads created by different developers including the KaKaRoTo PL3 payload which is a stable release.
