Itseez has finally released the first stable version of OpenCV in the 3.x series. It promises many new features over the 2.x version and many bug fixes over version 3.0. So if you want to install this new version, whether you already have an older version installed or you just…
Raspberry Pi has gained a lot of fame over the past years since it’s introduction. Being dirt cheap while powerful enough to run your home multimedia center is the key selling point of Raspberry Pi. But when it comes to embedded systems, one might want to test his software on…
STM8 Series of micro-controllers by ST Microelectronics are dirt cheap and powerful at the same time. Their processing power is nothing short as of Arduino, while at the same time their power consumption is much less. These properties makes STM8 micros a great choice for many hobby and serious projects.…
Now that you learned how to configure one of the pins of a STM8 micro-controller as output to blink a LED in the first part of STM8 basic tutorials, it is time to learn how to configure pins as input, so that you can react to things like button press…
Usually the first step toward learning development on a micro-controller is simply blinking a LED, as an analog to “Hello, world!” example used on PC programming languages. This time we will have a look into how to start programming and development on STMicroelectronics STM8 series of micro-controllers.
The performance benefit when going from a good old mechanical hard drive to a solid state drive is huge! If you are planning to do this for your laptop, hopefully this video can show you how to do it yourself!
A very common problem with power supply boards, motherboards and generally all PCs and TVs which are produced between 1999 and 2007 is the premature defect on some Taiwanese made electrolyte capacitors with bad electrolyte formula. Although this problem is said to be solved for gears produced after 2007 (according to…
Have you ever wondered how to send strings and numbers using USART in micro-controllers? No worries! The answer is here! The other day I was cleaning up and giving some order to my STM32 based projects, to extract various useful utilities and functions that I wrote for my work or university…
