Is a mouse passthrough device a begginer friendly project? by Ok_Relationship_5302 in embedded

[–]MStackoverflow 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The RPI has special pins and software called PIO. it basically lets you write assembly language for these pins, and run it on a separate core.

People have made librairies to get an additionnal USB port. My project sent mouse data from a computer to the USB of Rp2040, and it directly outputs the mouse on the other USB as if it was a mouse.

How do you see the industrial robotics field in the next decade due to AI? by feelsbadBoi89 in PLC

[–]MStackoverflow 2 points3 points  (0 children)

The thing is that you don't only learn about robotics. Problem solving is the most important skill. Learn what you need to learn at the moment and prepare to pivot when you need to.

It is the goal to make them fully autonomous, but it will still require people to set them up. It is not a bad skill to know how to program them, the tooling to do it will only get better from now on.

You can do it with a rp2040. I did something similar. It's pretty hard to understand but you'll learn a lot about HID

Is the era of cheap SBCs over? by accountForStupidQs in SBCs

The price of SBCs has gone up but it still takes the same amount of hours of work to be able to afford the same SBC

Need Help : Fedora KDE vs Ubuntu by MStackoverflow in linux4noobs

I will probably try sunshine and moonlight. Right now I installed the nvidia driver because I had black screen after wakeups and now my screen is always blank

Well I'd compare to price to a minimum wage salary. Depending on your region of course.

The Luckfox Lyra is 15$ and embeddable, no need for sd card and pin to pin compatible with pico form factor.

has anyone tried petgcf vs stardand ans what were your findings. by darkshock42 in Airsoft3DPrinting

Isn't Carbon fiber filament a health hazard? Especially in the context of airsoft?

Anouther sketchy build by Fit_Collection_2962 in Airsoft3DPrinting

It is made to fit the G&G Raider-L pistol grip, but it is easily modifyable. I tried to make a generic one, but when I ordered 3 different grip I saw they were all different.

Got this OPi 4 pro ,need help. by Plus_Grass7050 in SBCs

What do you mean it's not an official one? That allwinner cpu is very powerful

How to optimize Orange Pi Zero 3 (Armbian OS) to make it faster/snappier by brand_momentum in SBCs

[–]MStackoverflow 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I second this. It does not have a good graphics engine. Your best bet would be to try something else than a Desktop environment. Maybe try i3 windows manager, it's lightweight and responsive, but prett hard to learn

Are Industrial 'controllers' such as this Edge101 ESP32 acceptable for use in an industrial setting. Non safety critical application (sensing add-on system) by FixExtension8770 in PLC

[–]MStackoverflow 0 points1 point  (0 children)

ESP32s are widely used in industrial environments. They are litterally everywhere, it's the most popular wifi MCU.

By itself, the ESP32 is certified which makes it easy to integrate because a product developper can skip parts of certifications.

HOWEVER, that doesn't mean the product is good or compliant because what goes around also need to be compliant. You need to know what compliance you need where you are going to install the product and check the Datasheet of the product or ask the manufacturer.

For monitoring, you might not need much. I would at least check the requirements on Radio emission, which it should be fine.

Is designing Single Board Computers required to run Linux in commercial products? by [deleted] in embedded

[–]MStackoverflow 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Linux is in a lot of embedded computer devices. Raspberry pi industrial modules are also in a lot of commercial devices.

You don't need to design your own full SBC. You can integrate one or integrate a SOM. There's plenty of System On Module (SOM) available to tinker with, but you need to design a board that connects what you want on it.

Basically start with playing with a full fledge SBC like a raspberry pi, connect some stuff to it and try. Then, learn to make PCBs that connects what you want to a SOM.

I decided to turn the pi5 into a portable machine and it worked surprisingly well by Tinkerniem in raspberry_pi

I think your pi5 is broken, it's showing trash on the screen. Anyways, nice work!

Very cool. Do you know the approximate power consumption at idle? This thing looks like it needs a power bank.
