Following up on our previous post on understanding floating point math and speed of operations. On 8-bit AVRs, we ran across an excellent article today on Arduino math optimization. Link: Sensor smoothing and optimised maths on the arduino. Using a CMOS camera to replace conventional light sensors. A post on Embedded Lab that discusses using a CMOS camera for sensing applications. By reducing the c...

In early April 2016, the Arduino organization announced a complete change in strategy for how Arduino users will code and compile projects. Arduino Create. Is a brand new platform that allows you to code and compile online, share projects, and tap into existing community resources with much less effort than has ever been possible before.

MobileWill: February 2015
http://www.mobilewill.us/2015_02_01_archive.html
Sunday, February 22, 2015. Raspberry Pi 2 and Motorola Lapdock. Back in October of 2012, I had tested the Motorola Lapdock. Raspberry Pi 2 and Motorola Lapdock. Friday, February 13, 2015. HA: Living Room Node. To break out the power - same one that is running the La Crosse gateway. Here is the github link. That I am using for all nodes. I have adapted it to support each sensor that a node might have. It's based on the roomNode by JeeLabs. Last year I decided to give freeNAS another try despite the warnin...

MobileWill: January 2015
http://www.mobilewill.us/2015_01_01_archive.html
Tuesday, January 20, 2015. La Crosse Weather Station Gateway. Last Christmas (or was it the one before that? I received a La Crosse wireless weather station from my mom who is obsessed with them. This one has just a small display that can gauge inside and outside temperature. What interested me is that its a simple 433Mhz radio link. So sometime between then and a while ago, I got a 433Mhz receiver from Sparkfun. With the intention of capturing the binary data from the outside sensor. Stock photo from SFE.

MobileWill: April 2015
http://www.mobilewill.us/2015_04_01_archive.html
Monday, April 13, 2015. I came across the Hummingboard. While reading Engadget. This isn’t your run-of-the-mill Linux board, it’s jam-packed with features that other boards don’t have. The main feature that sets this board apart from the others is that the SOC is socketed and swappable. What a great idea! Need more power for your project or different board features? Just swap out the SOC module or board and now you can have an expanded set of features all while using the same platform.

MobileWill: STM32 Nucleo and DFU USB Bootloading
http://www.mobilewill.us/2015/06/stm32-nucleo-and-dfu-usb-bootloading.html
Tuesday, June 23, 2015. STM32 Nucleo and DFU USB Bootloading. To access these pins you can use a USB breakout or a USB Tester. Of course you could always cut open a USB cable, but seriously, why create a mess? If you have one of my USB, Testers it makes it much easier, plus all of the other features it provides. BUY ONE. So far I have tested the L152 and F411 and both have been PA12, PA11 (D , D-). Which is pin 6,7 from the top on the right most column of male headers. STM32 Nucleo USB DFU Connections.

MobileWill: Arduino Zero Has Arrived!
http://www.mobilewill.us/2015/07/arduino-zero-has-arrived.html
Sunday, July 5, 2015. Arduino Zero Has Arrived! The long awaited Arduino Zero has arrived! This is the version from CC not SRL. Looks like some retailers such as Adafruit has/had the SRL version already. Wonder if they will switch, perhaps since they began manufacturing for Arduino in the U.S? From Dave Jones' EEVblog. Then you know what I'm talking about! Not all is lost, though! Arduino Zero and Packaging. Mine arrived as pictured. One thing to note is the JTAG headers for the Embedded Debugger/ser...

MobileWill: August 2015
http://www.mobilewill.us/2015_08_01_archive.html
Sunday, August 9, 2015. VA Tester and our Giant Star. Once upon a time on a bright and sunny afternoon, I decided to interact with some photons from that big burst of energy we revolve around. I had ordered a 6V 3.5W solar panel. From Amazon awhile back but I never got around to trying it. I also had an Adafruit Solar LiPo Charger. Subscribe to: Posts (Atom). Enter your email address:.

MobileWill: Maker Faire, Bay Area 2015
http://www.mobilewill.us/2015/05/maker-faire-bay-area-2015.html
Saturday, May 23, 2015. Maker Faire, Bay Area 2015. This year the Bay Area Maker Faire celebrated ten years. William and I could not believe it! We've attended BAMF (as we cheekily call it), for the past eight years. Wow! It feels like only yesterday that we were frantically searching for parking, trying to stand in line before the gates opened. Oh wait, that happens each year. Ha! Were about the Arduino Projects Pack from MAKE. Crew and the BringAHack dinner hosted by Laen from OSHpark.

MobileWill: The Proto Buildbar
http://www.mobilewill.us/2015/07/the-proto-buildbar.html
Tuesday, July 21, 2015. Specifically the National Museum of the United States Air Force. And a couple of new dining experiences. Yes, we've been dreaming about biscuits from Bob Evans. But we must admit, besides those things and just spending time with family, there wasn't much else to do. That is, until MobileWill's cousin recommended perhaps one of the coolest places in all of Ohio. Above: 1. MobileWill's brother relaxes while reading from his device. Okay, you're thinking, "Yeah so? Sadly, we did not ...
