Fire Hotspot Detection using an RPAS
As part of a Summer Scholarship at the University of Canterbury,
I developed a system for detecting fire hotspots using thermal imaging
cameras and remotely piloted aircraft systems (RPAS).
Custom Fonts for Microcontrollers
Here I show how I created bitmap fonts from true-type fonts,
which can then be used in your own microcontroller projects.
I’m currently using them in my OLED watch project.
OLED Watch Rev 2
After making a mistake in my last design, I took the opportunity to
re-design the PCB and add some extra features. This will be a work in
progress so look in here for related blog posts!
PicKit2 Revisited
How to add the latest PIC24 chips to the PicKit2, plus an advanced GUI for editing the device file
OLED Watch
As a side project, I decided it’d be neat to have a programmable wrist watch.
I had an OLED lying around with the right dimensions, but I needed a breakout
board to be able to use it. So instead of simply making a breakout board,
I decided I’d turn it into a smart-watch platform!
Linear LED PWM
In this tutorial, I will show you how to properly control an LEDs brightness using PWM. It isn’t as simple as you think!
