Exploring Infrasound - Tornado Early Warning Detection Project Using Raspberry Pi Pico and a Python Supervisory Program

Inspired by the possibility of building an early warning system for tornadoes, Dev developed an infrasound detector. Tornadoes are rare in his area, but his detector found other infrasound activity using sensor circuitry based on a Raspberry Pi Pico, combined with a Python supervisory program that stores data on a computer for analysis.

RFID Attendance Tracker - Employee Clocking System Arduino Project

Attendance trackers carry prohibitively high costs for small companies. Andrei shows us how to build a cost-effective, customizable employee clocking system with RFID technology. An Arduino board with Integration Platform as a Service allows attendance tracking with RFID cards to blend seamlessly with popular payroll systems.

Mitigate Timing and Interference Issues on Multicore Processors

Missing multicore timing deadlines in a driver safety or aviation system is potentially catastropic. Adhering to guidance documents, and employing the appropriate testing and analysis methods ensures the efficient and deterministic execution of critical workloads.

Hit Me Up On TCP - Part 2 Using TCP/IP for transferring data, MQTT is lightweight and simple-to-use

This is the second in a two-part series where Pedro highlights network communication using ESP32 SOC and the ESP-IDF framework. Part two shows how to establish a multiple-end communication through MQTT, with an ESP32 SOC on one end to another end that can be anything capable of communicating through MQTT. Transport fundamentals are covered through a practical example showing how an ESP32-S2 SoC communicates using MQTT.
