Hello friends, I hope you all are doing great. In today's tutorial, we will have a look at the 5 Ways to Prevent Your Car from Being Stolen. Every year over 720,000 motor vehicles are stolen, according to the official site of the United States government. Thieves have gotten savvy, using technology and new methods to make stealing cars easier than ever. It is crucial to take steps to protect your vehicle from being stolen. Here are five ways to do just that:
Install a Security System
A good security system includes an alarm, immobilizer, and battery backup if you lose power to your car for any reason. It should have a remote lock/unlock capability which can be helpful if someone finds or steals your keys ...
The SPI (Serial Peripheral Interface) protocol, or rather the SPI interface, was originally devised by Motorola (now Freescale) to support their microprocessors and microcontrollers. Unlike the I2C standard designed by Philips, the SPI interface has never been standardized; nevertheless, it has become a de-facto standard. National Semiconductor has developed a variant of the SPI under the name Microwire bus. The lack of official rules has led to the addition of many features and options that must be appropriately selected and set in order to allow proper communication between the various interconnected devices. The SPI interface describes a single Master single Slave communication and is of the synchronous and full-duplex type. The clock is transmitted with a dedicated line (not necessari ...
Hello readers, hope you all are doing great. In this tutorial, we are going to discuss a mechanism that allows users to update the ESP32 with a new program wirelessly or over the air (without using a USB cable to upload a new program).
Over-The-Air (OTA) programming
Fig. 1 ESP32 OTA
OTA programming is the mean by which a product manufacturer or product service provider can update the features or functionality of the device wirelessly or over the air, after the device has been deployed in the field where connecting a cable or uploading the code serially is difficult.
One key advantage of OTA is that a single central node can send an update to multiple ESPs on the same network.
The device must have a provisioning client capable of receivin ...
Hello friends! I hope you are all very well! I am so happy to meet you today to continue learning and practicing PLC ladder logic programming. In an earlier part, we already have gone through the very basic logic gates of “AND”. “OR”, and “NOT”. Today we are going to resume the simulation of logic gates. We have started and gone through simulating the basic logic gates which are “AND”, “OR”, and “NOT” as they are the most important basic logic gates by which we can form other logic gates. However, because the logic of large-scale projects is getting more and more complicating, a lot of time we have to use the other functions to do tasks faster. For example, we have shown in the logic gates article that, XOR can be used to compare two inputs and ch ...
Hello! Readers, I hope you are pretty good. I am here with a new article to enhance your knowledge about advanced technologies. Today, we will have a detailed overview of the Manufacturing Process of Multilayer PCB. First, we will have a look at its basic definition, why there Is a need for this new type of PCB in presence of single layer and double layer PCBs. What are the merits and demerits of multilayer PCBs and pedagogy behind the construction process of these PCBs? Let’s start to take in all information about these PCBs. I try my best to deliver all of my research capacity for doing this job.
Introduction to Multi-layer PCBs
As to the name, it's clear that multi-layer PCBs are those which have several conductive layers over substantial material which is knowns as substrate. Unlike ...
The nearshoring phenomenon is a global economic trend that has been going on for decades. The phenomenon is defined as moving a company’s operations to a country that is in close proximity to the company’s home base.
Nearshoring offers many benefits in terms of cost savings, but it also has many drawbacks. It can have a negative effect on wages for local workers, and it can also have an impact on the environment if the process involves bringing in outsourced goods from overseas.
To conclude, nearshoring often benefits both companies and consumers who are looking for affordable goods at low prices. However, it can have a negative effect on wages and local jobs in the long run.
It's a great way for companies with smaller budgets to have more resour ...
Hello friends, I hope you’re all well and healthy. In today’s tutorial, we will be going through a simple, yet effective practice to design a 4-way traffic light simulation in Proteus software. This project is designed for undergrad engineering students with majors in electronics, electrical and mechatronics engineering. It is also useful for people that want to learn the basics of circuit design and Arduino programming.
4-Way Traffic Light Control using Arduino:
Traffic lights are an integral part of the world’s transportation systems. Over the years a number of different algorithms regarding traffic lights have been developed. The algorithm being used at any place for the purpose of controlling traffic takes into account of various factors, such ...
Hello readers, I hope you all are doing great. Welcome to the 3rd Lecture of Section 2 in the ESP32 Programming Series. In this tutorial, we are going to discuss another important feature of ESP32 i.e. PWM(Pulse Width Modulation).
Pulse Width Modulation is a technique to reduce the voltage by pulsating it. In today's lecture, we will first understand the basic concept of PWM, and after that will design two projects to fully grasp it. In the first project, we will control the brightness of an LED, while in the second one, we will control the speed of a DC Motor.
Here's the video demonstration of PWM Control in ESP32:
Before going forward, let's first have a look at the PWM working:
What is Pulse Width Modulation?
PWM is used to control the power delivered to the load by pul ...
Hello readers, hope you all are doing great. In this tutorial, we will discuss another ESP32 protocol that is Web Socket and we will also explain how to create a web server using web socket protocol with ESP32. So, we will have a look at What is a web socket server, How web socket protocol is different from HTTP protocol, What is handshaking in networking, Three-way handshaking, Web socket application, Creating web socket server using ESP32 module etc. Let's get started:
What is a web socket protocol?
Fig 1 Web-socket server
A Web Socket is a full-duplex (both the server and the client can send and receive data at the same time) computer communication protocol. Web socket protocol, like HTTP (hypertext transfer protocol), also works in server an ...
Hello everyone. Today is a great day that we are going to put our focus on another type of PCB. So far in the previous articles, we have looked at high speed, metalcore, high density interconnect and the ceramic types of PCBs. In this article, we are going to introduce another type of PCB that might find great use in your day-to-day interaction with the printed circuit boards. it is very important for a designer to take note of how PCBs have evolved and how they have become an important aspect in the design of successful electronic devices. It has become hardly difficult to come across any time of an electronic device that does not involve the use of printed circuit boards.
In PCB boards you come across LEDs fixed in them, and due to the evolving w ...
