Hello Friends, I hope you all are fine and doing great in your lives. In last article, we have seen What is an Embedded System ? Today I am going to write about Embedded Computer. I will be going through the embedded computer definition and how they differ from our general-purpose computers. After that, we will have alook at the relation between control systems & embedded computers and different hardware platforms for embedded computers. Then I will throw some light on embedded computer as an emerging field. In the last section, I am going to tell you some basics of programming languages. I have also shared a tutorial on Real Life Examples of Embedded Systems so you should also have a look at this tutorial. Let’s first define an embedded computer before getting into details. What is Embedd ...
Hello friends, I hope you all are fine and having fun with your lives. Today, I am going to share a new and very exciting service with you guys which is named as myDevices Cayenne , we will have a look at getting started with Cayenne. Its really an awesome platform for students and hobbyist who wants to work on embedded systems but are afraid of programming codes. Cayenne is an online project building platform using drag and drop. Currently it supports Arduino and Raspberry Pi. In simple words, you can design any of your Arduino or Raspberry Pi project simply by drag and drop different components. You don't need to write any code, you just need to place your blocks and upload it to your Arduino board. Its also known as the Graphical coding. I came to know about Cayenne a few days ago and I ...
Hello friends, I hope you all are fine and enjoying your lives. Today, I am going to share a comparison titled Arduino Vs Raspberry Pi . Actually, I have been receiving a lot of emails and comments from new engineering students that "we are new in embedded and we want to start our project so please tell us which one is better Arduino or Raspberry Pi?" So, I thought to write a post on Arduino Vs Raspberry Pi and in this post, I am going to make a detailed comparison between the two and will let you know, which one you should use in your project and why? So, I hope that you are all aware of or at least have heard about these two boards, which are Arduino and Raspberry Pi. If you haven't heard yet then you must have a look at Arduino Official Site and Raspberry Pi Official Site . They will gi ...
Hello Friends, My name is Syed Daniyal Nasir. I hope you guys are fine and enjoying your lives with passion. Today, we are going to start the new series of tutorials related to Android Development and here's my first tutorial in thie series which is, Getting Started with Android. This is gonna be my first tutorial of Android Development for “The Engineering Projects”. As we all know, Android Development is enhancing vigorously day by day, Google Play Store is flooded with tons of new mobile applications each day. So a lot of people want to understand the basics of Android Development, so that they could develop their own applications. But some people find it very difficult due to certain reasons. That’s why we are going to make these tutorials as simple as possible, so that most of the peo ...
Hello friends! Today we will get started with Arduino programming by learning how a sketch is organized and how it interacts with the board's pins. We will begin with comments and the setup and loop functions, then move through digital input, digital output, analog measurement and pulse-width modulation. Libraries Arduino Simulation Libraries Arduino boards: UNO · Mega 2560 · Mega 1280 · Nano · Pro Mini · Mini (V4.0) All six V4.0 boards in one package: Arduino Library for Proteus V4.0 Helping Tools Serial Monitor Advance : a serial terminal window for the UART of your board Serial Monitor Expert : the serial monitor with extra debugging tools LCD Library for Proteus V3.0 : 16x2, 20x4 and I2C LCDs to show your readings If you have not installed the software or uploaded your first sketch, be ...
Hello friends! This page organizes our Arduino projects into a practical learning path. We will begin with board setup and a first sketch, then move through displays, sensors, communication and combined applications. The aim is to help you choose the next useful exercise instead of searching through an unrelated collection of links. Work through the projects actively. Read the circuit, predict the result, run a small example and explain any difference you observe. You can also explore our Arduino projects for beginners and the corresponding PIC microcontroller project guide when comparing learning paths. The collection includes historical boards, software and simulation packages. Keep each tutorial's exact hardware and version requirements in mind. An example written for a classic Uno or a ...
Hello friends! If you are developing an embedded project and need help with its firmware, The Engineering Projects can discuss your microcontroller programming requirements with you. Your project may involve a new prototype, a circuit that is not responding correctly or an existing program that needs a clearly defined improvement. Useful programming work starts with understanding the hardware and the required behaviour. A sentence such as “control a motor with a sensor” describes an idea, but it does not yet define a complete system. We need to know which motor, which sensor, how quickly the controller must respond and what should happen when a signal disappears. This page explains the types of work you can discuss with us, the information to prepare and the deliverables to agree before de ...
