Posted on: 04 Jul 2016
With Eltechs ExaGear Desktop you can run Intel x86 application on your ARM-based Mini PC simultaneously with common native applications. ExaGear is a virtual machine that implements virtual x86 Linux container on ARM and allows you to run Intel x86 applications directly on ARM. It is like QEMU but 5 times faster! You can even run Windows […]
Ultralow-power RFID transponder chip in thin-film transistor technology on plastic
Posted on: 04 Jul 2016
At this week’s IEDM 2014, held in San Francisco, California, nanoelectronics research center imec demonstrated an ultra-low power RFID transponder chip. Operating at sub 1V voltage and realized in thin-film transistor technology (TFTs) on plastic film, the chip paves the way for universal sensing applications, such as item level RFID tagging, body area networks (BAN) […]
make your own wearable LED display using pic-microcontroller
Posted on: 03 Jul 2016
jump to a section:supplies about LED arrays design construction customizing/programming washing and wearing troubleshooting and FAQ **NOTE** As of Fall 2007, skip the ugly microcontroller programming (don’t buy the STK500 or the AVR chip)… Get a LilyPad Arduino instead. It’s much easier to sew and to program! See my LilyPad Arduino tutorial for help on […]
