By textbook definition, Embedded Electronics can be defined as a system that “Integrates Hardware circuitry with software programming techniques to provide real-time solutions”. From age old pocket calculators to advanced automobile and security devices the applications of Embedded System continue to show a strong progress.
In this section we will discuss about the various embedded controllers and embedded development platforms including, but not limited to Arduino, Raspberry Pi, NodeMCU, ESP32, Microchip, AVR, ARM, MSP430, STM32, STM8S, Nuvoton etc. It also updates the readers with latest Embedded News and technology trends to help them plan and design their Embedded Projects with ease.
Playing smooth, full-motion video on low-power microcontrollers has been challenging due to memory and processing limitations. But with the dual-core speed, high SPI clock rates and an optimized decoding library on the ESP32, you can turn a simple development board into a working video player. If you want to create custom animations or add dynamic visual UI elements…
A tiny satellite prototype weighing just 21 grams is showing how far small-scale electronics can be pushed when size and weight become the main design targets. The compact device, developed as a suborbital satellite prototype, measures only 28 × 28 × 33 mm and packs an ESP32-C3 Mini microcontroller, environmental sensors, an inertial measurement unit (IMU), onboard…
What if a tiny electronic device could look at the sky without a camera or telescope and tell you which planets are currently above the horizon? That is the idea behind Whats Up V2, a compact GPS-based circuit built around an STM32G031K8 microcontroller. The device uses a u-blox SAM-M10Q GPS module to obtain its location and precise UTC time, while nine SK6812-EC20 addressable RGB LEDs provide…
Urban areas are now affected by acoustic disturbances; major Indian cities such as Mumbai, Kolkata, and Delhi rank among the noisiest in the world, driven by dense traffic, construction, festivals, and industrial activity. Extended exposure to these noise levels leads to health issues, including disturbed sleep, increased stress, cardiovascular risk, hearing damage,…
The Arduino UNO R3 is often the first board people use to learn electronics and programming. Connect an LED, read a sensor, control a motor, upload a sketch, and it can seem like you’ve already discovered everything the board can do.But there is much more going on underneath.At the heart of the UNO R3 is the ATmega328P microcontroller. That small chip contains hardware features that many…
An open source project called Meowtion packs two on device AI models onto a single microcontroller with only 256KB of RAM, using a scheduling trick rather than model compression to make it fit. Built by Jerome Graves and documented on Hackaday.io, the wearable collar tracks a cat's eating, drinking, and resting behaviour to flag early changes that can precede illness.
The collar runs on…
Developer slvDev has published an open-source project that runs a 28.9-million-parameter language model directly on an ESP32-S3, a microcontroller that costs roughly $8. The model runs entirely on the chip itself, with no data sent to a server, generating text at roughly 9 tokens per second and outputting it to a small connected display. The achievement stands out because of how little working…
"Is it going to rain, or should I leave the windows open?" we would have asked ourselves numerous times. Now the weather is clear, but sometimes the rain will suddenly start pouring. The standard weather forecast application may give you accurate forecasts near the airport or other places, which are kilometres away from us, but it will not give us accurate forecasts…
In modern day, the need for surveillance systems is increasing rapidly. We have a lot of recognized brands that offer such solutions. But can we extend the capabilities of a $5 ESP32-CAM module to build something similar?In this project, we are going to build an AI-Based No Parking Alert System using ESP32-CAM, in which, if someone parks their vehicle in front of the…
Pune, India — July 2026. EWskills, the Industry focused skill-building platform for electronics and embedded engineers, has announced the launch of EWsim.io, a browser-based mixed-signal circuit simulator that executes microcontroller firmware. The tool is free to use, requires no installation, and is aimed at Engineers, students, educators, hobbyists, and Makers.Developed by the team behind…
Long before today's advanced motion capture systems became commonplace, Industrial Light & Magic (ILM) developed an ingenious hardware solution known as the Dinosaur Input Device (DID) for Jurassic Park. Instead of animating dinosaurs frame by frame with a mouse, animators manipulated a physical dinosaur puppet embedded with magnetic rotary encoders at every…
With football fever reaching its peak, DHK DUDE from youtube built this pocket-sized, real-time World Cup score gadget for his desk. Powered by a Wemos D1 Mini microcontroller, this custom IoT gadget utilizes built-in Wi-Fi to seamlessly connect to the internet, fetching live match telemetry, group fixtures, and team data directly through web APIs. Like every maker…
