From its lack of simple things like code IntelliSense to more complex requirements like a debugger, quite a number of articles and comments have been written in the past about the inadequacies of the Arduino IDE. Many have pointed out how the IDEs’ attempt at simplifying things makes it unusable for professional embedded software developers. The Arduino team has …
There are already some NFC jukeboxes. Off the shelf like those “Toni” boxes. For do-it-yourself: lots of instructables. This device should cover as much as possible, which could come into question sometime and somehow. It should have as few weak points as possible, (in which a 3-year-old could put things). Easy to use, easy to …
STM32 was one of the names that were almost driven into oblivion, no thanks to the Arduino Revolution, but the name was brought back into the limelight when the STM32 Blue Pill was released. With its compatibility with the Arduino IDE via the STM32duino support package and its breadboard friendly form factor, it was a …

Duane Bester has built a GPS Tracker From Scratch Using 3 Arduino boards to make a GPS tracker and a data logger. A flash of idea came to him, to combine the new Arduino Nano 33 BLE Sense with an SD card and GPS module for a project that records GPS and IMU data. So he opted to …
FOVEA is a wearable embedded analyzer — a multimeter targeted at embedded electronics with wrist-worn convenience. FOVEA, their wearable embedded analyzer does a few primary things to make embedded work easier: (a) It moves the multimeter display to a location that’s much closer to where the probes are being held, and also with almost the …
Arduino has launched Arduino SIM, which is a SIM-only service exclusively for IoT (internet of things) devices based on the Arduino platform. It provides developers and manufacturers cellular access to the Arduino IoT Cloud platform from over 100 countries with a single data plan and competitive pricing. [via www.mwee.com] Arduino SIM aims to provide the simplest …

The official Arduino team have this week announced the launch and availability of their new Arduino Edge Control board priced at $169 or $199. Designed to provide you with a remote monitoring and control solution, optimized for outdoor environments, the board can collect real-time data from smart sensors and leverage AI on the edge. The …
When one thinks of the Arduino Uno, one thinks of a capable 8-bit microcontroller platform that nonetheless doesn’t set the world alight with its performance. Unlike more modern parts like the ESP32, it has just a single core and no real multitasking abilities. But what if one wanted to run many threads on an Uno …
Allied Vision Technologies GmbH in November announced its Alvium 1500 and Alvium 1800 embedded and machine vision camera series. The Alvium 1500 supports MIPI-CSI-2 interfaces and the Alvium 1800 supports MIPI-CSI-2 and USB3 Vision. They both have On Semi sensors featuring up to 2592 × 1944 px resolution and V4L2 drivers that support Jetson and i.MX6/8 dev boards. The Alvium SoC …
