“A digital clock using minimum components. My objective was to build a digital clock using minimum components. This clock display is on two 8 x 8 LED max7219 and uses Arduino for time without rtc. It’s cheap and easy …
“We present an algorithm to compute parametric models of dense foliage. The guiding principles of our work are automatic reconstruction and compact artist friendly representation. We use Bézier patches to model leaf surface, which we compute from images and point …
“A spacecraft destined to explore a unique asteroid will also test new communication hardware that uses lasers instead of radio waves. The Deep Space Optical Communications (DSOC) package aboard NASA’s Psyche mission utilizes photons — the fundamental particle of visible …
News NXP’s i.MX RT Crossover Processor Sets Highest Microcontroller Real-Time Benchmark Performance Yet
“NXP Semiconductors N.V.(NASDAQ:NXPI) presents the i.MX RT series, a crossover solution that bridges the gap between high performance and integration while minimizing costs. As the need for smarter and more ‘aware’ edge computing grows and becomes …
“Use this carrier to enhance the survivability, reliability and capabilities of the Particle Electron, a cellular IoT device. I have been building IoT sensors for outdoor use for a few years now. Most of my focus has been on helping …
“Arduino Uno-powered terminal emulator on a tiny 1”x1” TFT screen To enter command-line tasks on Mac/Linux/Windows we use a text console window. But back in the old days there was no window display at all, and the …
“A team of scientists from the University of Liverpool, University College London and the University of Zaragoza in Spain has discovered a way to induce and control a fundamental electrical switching behaviour on the nano-scale. Their results are reported in …
“This article series explains how to write a tiny 32-bit x86 operating system kernel. We won’t do very much other than print Hello world! to the screen in increasingly complicated ways! We’ll start off in assembly and then …
“Additive manufacturing processes are the major topic for the future of production engineering. Applications range from producing machine parts of metal through to 3D printing of concrete. Two international symposia, currently taking place at the Technical University of Munich (TUM …
“An Android Things-powered clock that allows the user to actually READ the time! What about a clock that speaks the user own language? Here it is! The core concept of this clock is that during the day, only the letters …
