The next 10 weeks of instruction will cover several areas that are not specific to any particular micro controller platform.  These will be critical skills to master in order to be successful in deploying equipment for long term use.  The instruction will also cover integration with existing hardware, which is a value added skill set.  More importantly, the impact on design from budget constraints will be put in practice.  Lastly, the quarter will not focus on the traditional mid term…

The QuickFire is rush to market challenge. Built a system that would perform data logging of temperature, sound, light, and accelerometer sensors using an Arduino Uno board to MicroSD card. The data would be combined with GPS data and represented visually using an overlay. It had to be completed in 48 hours. Thank you to the following folks: Jeremy Blum (http://www.jeremyblum.com), your tutorials were instrumental in making this possible. The folks at Arduino for the code, SD, SerialSoft, and the…

Abstract from Fall 2013 Term Paper Introduction One of the key safety aspects of any bicycle is its lighting. Several options are currently available for riders to choose from. At present, the lighting devices sold are small compact units that can attach to the bike or rider. Most are powered and controlled from internal circuitry. Because of this common design, these devices aren’t easily controlled. Lighting or signaling devices mounted out of reach of the rider are simply not controllable….
