tinyTILE, An Intel Development Board Based on Intel Curie Module
In the past year, Intel announced the low power development board “tinyTILE” which was built based on Intel Curie Module, offering quick and easy identification of actions and motions, features needed by always-on applications. tinyTile was designed for use in wearable devices and...
Continue ReadingArduino Interrupts Tutorial
In this video educ8s.tv is going to show us how to use interrupts with Arduino, an advanced but extremely useful feature of the Arduino. But what is an interrupt? Most microprocessors have interrupts. Interrupts let you respond to external events while doing something else. Suppose...
