Recently I have been writing software designed to take imagery for astronomy applications, and it turns out astronomy types love FITS. FITS is great, but the C libraries available are not. If you live in Python land, astropy does a good job at hiding the ugliness from you. But if you live in C/C++ land, …
Auvidea make some pretty cool carrier boards for the Nvidia Jetson series of computers. The J130 is particularly powerful for machine vision applications due to the 5 USB3 ports available. I recently got my hands on one from mouser in addition to a Nvidia Jetson TX2i module and ran into some issues initially. These included: …
How cool are the Nvidia Jetson series of “Advanced AI Embedded Systems”! They pack all kinds of potential for machine vision applications, the features of which I won’t go into here. Mainly because I cannot even understand most of them. But hey, AI sounds pretty cool. For me, Tensor Cores conjure up images of Tony …
Nano33BLESensor leverages Mbed OS to automatically place sensor measurements in a ring buffer that can be integrated into programs in a simple manner.
A common complaint about the Nano 33 BLE Sense is the lack of working examples available for the board. The nano-33-sense-serial-example is a great way to visualise all of the onboard sensors on the Nano 33 BLE sense.
I hate the internet. I hate it not only because it shows us the decay of society in real-time, but also because I do not really understand it. So I came up with a concept for a gift that attempts to satirise not only the way people use the internet to dish out their unqualified opinion, but also the shallow way in which people deliver that opinion…
27/12/2022 UPDATE: I have finally managed to fix a few annoying bugs with this library and release a new version. Hopefully it continues to get some use out there! SPIFFS (or SPI Flash File System) is very cool. It is an Open Source Library intended for SPI NOR flash devices on embedded targets. Embedded targets …
I recently began a project where I needed to build some dead simple, HTML only static web pages during runtime with the ESP8266 to represent data stored on the filesystem. Depending on the number of files located on the filesystem various buttons, forms, and text needed to be generated. In addition I needed some templating …
How time flies! It has been almost two years now since dalegi.com said “hello world” to the world, and I have had a nice time writing what I have managed to write on the blog! In this time there have almost been 3000 visitors to the site, and that has been just about enough for …
