The whole project proposed in this roadtest is based on a particular technology used in CMOS camera sensors: Rolling Shutter Global shutters, which are commonly implemented on CCD sensors (although CMOS variants exist), expose all pixels on the...
It was an exciting journey of learning for last 8 days or so, My first hands-on experience went smooth with MSP-EXP430FR4133MSP-EXP430FR4133 along with Code Composer Studio learning curve. Before we go to further details of what I was doing and did u...
The selfie phenomenon has gone completely viral, it is probably the most common type of photograph taken today. This blog will explore a little bit how LEDs might play a role in this ubiquitous phenomenon and a little more generally how LEDs affect p...
The TPS92512EVM-001TPS92512EVM-001 evaluation module (EVM) helps designers evaluate the operation and performance of the TPS92512HV buck switching regulator designed for high-current LED-drive applications. The TPS92512HV device is designed to contro...
Intro Its been the holiday week all last week with Diwali and stuff and family gatherings and such hence the delayed post. My focus has been on the shopping list since it usually takes LOOOOONG to get the needed parts and I have been successful ...
Another phase of this road test deals with power LEDs. I wanted to publish something to show progress in this area and I finally have enough parts to build an initial demonstration.This blog covers preliminary connection of the TI TPS92512EVM-001TPS9...
One objective of this road test is to present application ideas for interactive LED illumination to spark ideas and interest in people reading this blog. So far I have mostly been demonstrating 3D printed objects, but not everyone has access to a 3D ...
1. Box arrived, looked big but its the same size as an iphone 6 (MMB0) with the EVM 1262 being not much bigger than an arduino. 2. I found the software easy to install as well as the plug ins, I gave up on my mac, i wasted more ti...
Title: Semi-Automatic Traffic Light [S.A.T.L] control system [there is no term called "S.A.T.L" - i am just using it to make the title short ]By: SunnyiutProject Category:RoadTestProject Nam...
Before all the exciting stuffs like getting selected to do Roadtest, receiving packages and unboxing them, there was an idea which ignited all of these exciting things, and that's the topic/idea I am going talk here... My proposed idea was SMART...
Hi, It took me a while to finish this video, I was busy with a big project and then I messed up the audio on the recording. I'll upload more videos soon showing the different parts and their functionalities and then I'll discuss my ideas fo...
The project I want to build during this roadtest is a Visible Light Communication (VLC) system between a LED driven by the TPS92512 board and an Android smartphoneThe idea behind VLC is very simple: light bulbs are pervasive, have ample access to pow...
While waiting for parts to help with the rest of this road test I thought I would build a more complex demonstration of 3D printed objects for intricate lighting applications. This concept/ example is an interactive trophy - I think it would be prett...
Another application category highlighted in this road test is Wearable Interactive Lights. The specific example I want to demonstrate in this blog is how we can use the BLE LED module in an iconic Iron Man type Arc Reactor. There have been many...
I received the Kit a week back but was unable to upload the video due to internet Issues. Finally here it is...www.youtube.com/watch So my prohhject is simple a 4 channel LED Driver which is Wi-Fi Enabled. Sounds simple and it should be as well...
I finally managed to scrounge enough apparatus together to run a full demonstration of the BLE LED module from TI. I have not had much time to explore the TI BLE Multitool App, but there is a first look at it here. This first demonstration provides i...
Hello everyone, After all hassles of custom clearance of my package I have got it here and excited to unbox with you guys... First of all thanks to Texas Instruments, Würth Elektronik and Element14 for this amazing Roadtest and selecting me to d...
First, I would like to say thanks to element14, Texas Instruments, and Würth Elektronik for selecting me to participate in this Roadtest+. The application I have in mind is a:Machine Vision LED lighting controller. Introduction LED Lig...
Everyone is familiar with LEDs and an LED road test is going to need more than just turning them on to be of interest. The road test kit includes devices with a unique feature set and this road test will attempt to present a variety of potentia...
Well i unboxed and recorded this video a week ago and although it leaves a lot of room for improvement it is really my first attempt at making videos not to mention work has been insane the last week but i promise i will be bringing plenty of good co...
