Embedded technologies that involve both hardware and its associated firmware are device and system subjects concerning PSoC, Flash, Arrays, or ASICs that are either stand-alone in function or appear among single-board computers that appear at this site. Topics and principles around these two areas are recorded here for reference purposes and might be of interest.
Proximity Detection with Distance Sensor HC-SR04
This project involves the use of an HC-SR04 proximity sensor commonly used among robotic devices for purposes of collision avoidance. In this project, the sensor is applied to an Arduino ... Read More
Portable Temperature & Humidity Monitor System
The purpose of this build is to become more familiar with how to develop a free-standing Arduino system using the Arduino Nano. The Nano is a smaller equivalent to the ... Read More
Liquid Crystal Display Setup, Control & Calculator
A common Arduino system typically includes a display of some type. This project was to set up a 16x2 LCD display to an Arduino unit and run it with simple ... Read More
Pushbutton Switch Dimmer Control & Alarm
This project controls an increasing and decreasing voltage level in increments to represent a dimmer present at an LED. An in-circuit buzzer serves as an alarm to indicate either a ... Read More

Photoresistor Sensor Control of Buzzer Alarm
Using the point-slope formula between the on-time and off-time of a passive buzzer, we can control the high frequency and low-frequency tone sound as a function of light. As a ... Read More
MatPltLib, OpenCV, Numpy, Visual Studio IDE, & Python
There are numerous configuration requirements involved in the setup and operation of the Jetson unit to produce relevant AI related projects. To support meaningful project activity, these are the steps ... Read More
Python Function Review for Jetson Nano Projects Pt.2
A separate walk through of how the prior session involved arrays and conditional loops is completed here only this time in headless mode. The objective of this session was to ... Read More
