While there is a time and place for wirelessly controlled devices, sometimes you want something you can just reach out and ...

Constructor is slightly different from Adafruit_NeoPixel. Rather than a pin number, this accepts an array of 8 signed bytes corresponding to pins for data outputs 0-7 (very specific rules apply here, ...

Code for driving HUB75-style RGB LED matrices, targeted at 32-bit MCUs using brute-force GPIO (that is, not relying on DMA or other specialized peripherals beyond a timer interrupt, goal being ...

Delay line memory is a technology from yesteryear, but it’s not been entirely forgotten. [P-Lab] has developed a demo board for delay-line memory, which shows how it worked in a very obvious way with ...

An open-source ecosystem allows sharing application resources and providing technical support through an active developers’ community. OpenPLC is a programming editor that support the International ...

In this project, we're making a cool 4×4×4 LED cube with Arduino Nano. LED cubes, also known as LED Matrix, can light up your room, study space, or Maker area giving it a awesome cool look. Moreover ...

Not long ago I wrote an article on TM FAST, a technological module from Siemens, equipped with FPGA, which allows the execution of very fast tasks in parallel to the PLC to which it is connected. The ...

There are many ways to compute value. Reinforcement learning provides a powerful framework for describing how animals or agents learn the value of different states and actions from experience and use ...

Alan Blake holds a degree in microbiology and biotechnology. When he is not in the lab or traveling, you will find him tinkering with electronics or recycling/reusing stuff that would end up in ...
