Unfortunately many links are 404. Would have liked to have seen them.
To mix in with other's comments. It's always good to have a target in sight, but building a physical product with no experience will be a long, expensive journey. I make physical and digital products as a consultant,…
I would disagree that example is a slippery slope, but more of a leap across a vast canyon. Going from providing information and requesting an action, to making an automated decision and action, is much more difficult…
Okay, I think this reply helps frame your stance much better. You are not necessarily proposing no C ever, but saying at least start a new project with a C++ compiler / IDE and if there are reasons to use C code or…
An 8-bit microcontroller where memory is constrained and all the vendor libraries are written in C, is a good example. Your 32-bit ARM M3/M4 cores are probably crossing that line where the memory cost of using C++ is…
This is geared towards qtquick (not widgets) applications, but to create a general theme you can use this pattern: https://doc.qt.io/archives/qt-5.11/qtquickcontrols2-flatstyl... Then before the engine is loaded in…
From my internet researching a while ago the main difference, and why MLMs are legal, is that an MLM sells a product, whereas a pyramid scheme sells people. That is, you can make money solely by acquiring more people…
I think it really depends on what you want to do. If you want to work with physical systems, computation, or data-science, then I think engineering physics is a good path. Where I went to college, all engineering…
I have a degree in Engineering Physics where I concentrated in Electrical Engineering. I also minored in Industrial Design. I currently work at a product design firm as an "Embedded Systems Engineer", where I primarily…
Unfortunately this comment is conflating two ideas. Nothing in this article conflicts with the idea that a UX designer knowing how to implement their designs in code would be a benefit. I don't see a problem with the…
Mainly because of the extensive Hardware Abstraction Layers (HAL) libraries available from most mcu vendors
I am excited to see this come out: https://www.nordicsemi.com/eng/Products/Low-Power-Cellular-I... Seems promising, but I don't see the current consumption documented anywhere yet.
It would not be more signal. https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wave_interference The goal of noise canceling is to fully use destructive wave interference to create a 0 amplitude "signal", which is no signal at all.
Depending on the application, I'll use a Finite State Machine pattern, but if I need something more complex I'll use QM QP/C (which is uses a hierarchical state machine pattern). So it's good to see others using Quantum…
What I assume IncRnd is referring to is the deterministic behavior of an RTOS. Here is a good white paper from National Instruments: http://www.ni.com/white-paper/3938/en/
> Software is so complex that nobody really understands it. Unless this statement is trying to imply something deeper than what it states, I would disagree. I work with embedded systems and connected devices. To me it's…
Is running software/application in the Linux environment deem it a derivative work? Does Honeywell have to adhere to a GPL if they aren't modifying the Linux kernel? It's not clear to me that they would need to follow…
Though we do have 4K tvs now.
I would actually say it is more of a game engine, especially when compared to three.js. Babylon.js supports physics plug-ins and collisions. They also have an action manager and other useful built in methods. Their…
Fair enough, his description seems misleading. To me a pixel is a discrete RGB value, which is made up of physical components, for example: https://google.com/search?tbm=isch&q=close+up+of+lcd+screen…
From the article: "Asking someone what the size of a pixel is is a good way to confuse him or her because it’s a trick question. A pixel has no size, no physical value or meaning outside of its mathematical…
I know it's picky and this article is trying to be simplistic, but pixels do have a physical size. That is why there are optimal resolutions, starting with a 1:1 representation of physical to software. Edit: Actually…
Good Display is a Chinese Vendor that seems a little more transparent. http://m.good-display.com/products_list/&pmcId=160&productCa... You can buy a demo kit which features a STM32F1 and source code. You can also buy…
A friend and myself were talking about this exact same thing the other day (he works in the web / desktop app space and I work in the embedded space). We were working on an embedded project a while back and he didn't…
