In the previous blog , I have explored the features of the SmartEdge Agile device, focusing on its hardware features. The device is the actual int...
At the end of 2018, I have been invited to take part in beta testing of the new IoT + AI solution by AVNET and Octonion, organized by Element14. I was very interested in this new product and its ecosystem, as quite a lot of my latest work has revolve...
This road-test is a continuation from Keithley Bench Digital Multimeter - Review In this blog I played around and investigated the KickStart Instrument PC Control Software for data collection and plotting graphs with DMM 6500.
Evaluate th...
This road-test is a continuation from Keithley Bench Digital Multimeter - Review Here I did some experiments to verify the core features of the Keithley DMM6500. These are some analog experiments to test the functionality.

This blog is a continuation from Keithley Bench Digital Multimeter - Review This is an experiment to measure the low current of the solar panels. I have a single solar panel of 5V and roughly 500 mA current output capability. I want to test the...
If you have owned any kind of battery-powered device in the last decade (maybe more), you have probably glanced at and asked yourself, "how many bars you have left." In other words, your were peeking at your battery fuel gauge. It'...
I think if you were to ask the man or woman on the street, What do Engineers Do?, you would get a pause and then the standard responses of "build skyscrapers, operate trains, fix furnaces or make phones work." In other words, they don't really know w...
I'm reviewing the Microchip CAN Analyzer for a Road Test.I'm now testing it in a CAN Bus test bed that I designed. In the previous posts for this review, I've used the digital side of the CAN circuit.I always had the intention to also test...
This year has been off to a relatively good, if not busy, start. After winning RoadTest Review of the Year, whereas previously I was nominated but came dead last, I was surprised to hear from danzima who offered me a reward of a shopping cart of good...
Welcome to All Parents and K-12 Teachers to the element14 RoadTest Program! The element14 RoadTest & Reviews program has traditionally been an engineering-product program where free products are given to element14.com community members in ex...
I have only very recently started participating in the Element14 community and so was really pleased and excited to get picked for my first RoadTest on the AVR-IoT WG Development Board! Participating in a RoadTest has certainly kick-started me i...
After spending many hour this week working with the MiniZed, I have in mind a few discussion points to ponder......1) Why aren't there any MiniZed community projects on the Zedboard.org site?Is this board not popular, or obsolete already? I look ...
I use an Arduino Mega ADK with a dated can bus shield v1.1 the can bus shield library is downloaded from https://github.com/Seeed-Studio/CAN_BUS_Shieldthe i modify the example received_check , to change the pin to 10 instead of the original 9con...
This project is about building an interesting medical application project around Honeywell pressure sensors and a Cypress PSoC6 BLE Kit.I am partnered with glennvanderveer on this project. He will be doing most of the heavy lifting now that he has re...
When I first read about the Omron HVC-P2 roadtest I was excited about the possibility of implementing a security monitoring application with a camera/image processor that had human image recognition built in. Based on the specs I thought I coul...
Road-Test Blog 3 from MyIoT: Infineon Shield2Go Boards for IoT - Review Here I used the Wemos mini D1 module and interfaced the 3D magnetic sensor TLV493D-A1B6 & DPS310 Pressure Sensor via I2C bus. I broke the mini board of 3D sensor head fo...

It's time to switch the host for the HVC-P2 from the RPi3 to the RPi0W. Integration Steps:1) Load software OS and python code and libraries2) Connect using USB OTG cable3) Test that application software is operating correctly4) Modify case a...
The previous blogs are here MyIoT: Infineon Shield2Go Boards for IoT - Review Here I present some results from the tests of the Wemos D1 mini Wifi module. This is a common module which is used with many IOT products and very cheap to buy. It is a min...
This is a continuation of results of my performance testing. I realize that I'm collecting a huge amount of data and it doesn't make sense to present the analysis of all of it, so I'm just going to summarize what I believe will be o...
IntroductionI recently swapped out a load of lighting at home, so it was an opportunity to take some of the older LED bulbs apart, to see how they are made : ) Last week, a Philips MASTER LEDspot was taken apart. This week, it is the turn of the Sylv...
As I started to think about what my test matrix would look like, I quickly realized that I had far too many variables and that I needed to try to eliminate some of them. The first parameter that I wanted to measure was detection acquisition time...
In this blog post I'm going to detail the process that I'll be using to test the performance of the HVC-P2. In following posts I'll document the test results. As I discussed in my previous post, key parameters that I am trying ...
