Augmented-reality applications — software that overlays a level of digital information on top of the physical world around us — have brought us more data. With an augmented-reality app on your smartphone, you might be able to hold your phone’s camera up to capture the image of a city street. Looking at the screen, you […]
Razen is a collaborative, scriptable schematic and PCB layout tool
Posted on: 22 Apr 2013
Razen features an integrated schematic and layout editor with forward- and back-annotation. Editing library parts uses the same schematic & layout interface. 3rd-party part libraries can be imported and used directly from the editor. The interface, shortcuts and editing tools are customisable – from simple shortcut-key/display options to Python-scriptable editing tools. All projects are stored […]
xTimer V1.0 using AT89C4051 microcontroller
Posted on: 22 Apr 2013
My wife asked me to find another timer for using in the kitchen. She got one already with analog setting, but it needs one AA size battery. Digital setting may not easy for human interface. However I will make it for easy time setting. When I am free I will modify it to be analog […]
How Haptic Technology Works
Posted on: 22 Apr 2013
Since the 1980s, computer scientists have been trying to answer these questions. Their field is a specialized subset of haptics known as computer haptics. Over the next few pages, we’ll cover how haptic technology works by: relating computer haptics to related fields of haptics research characterizing the types of haptic feedback required for realistic virtual […]
