Light-emitting diodes (LEDs) are simple components that are used as visual indicators or LED lighting. Controlling just one strip of LEDs with an Arduino Uno and the likes is not so much of a big deal for most embedded designers but installing and controlling multiple strips of LEDs,...

Diabetes is a serious disease that affects millions of people around the world today. Diabetes affects the body’s ability to produce insulin, a hormone that enables the body to turn glucose into sugar which has resulted to a large number of deaths, an estimate of 1.6 million deaths...

Just recently, we wrote about Midatronics' MKR SharkyPro BLE, Zigbee, OpenThread development board that is based on STM32WB55 MCU in an Arduino MKR form factor. We are back with excitement to inform you that the company also has a similar looking MKR Windy board that follows the same...

We have all been there. Everytime we start adding new peripherals, sensors and actuators to our projects, we eventually will reach a point where the 3.3 and 5 V voltages from the microcontroller (when they are available) are not enough, either because we require more current than what...

In the midst of discovering wireless modules that simplify Bluetooth LE, Zigbee, OpenThread connectivity, it turned out that Midatronics also has a SharkyPro module based on STM32WB55, and they have launched a pair of Arduino MKR form factor development boards called MKR SharkyPro I...

Infrared has been around for a long while. It has proven to be reliable enough so that basically almost everything remote and short range, that came before home automation was cool enough to be considered a thing, and battled its place fairly with RF technologies, so it deserves some...

Arduino Nano 33 IoT can be used to enhance existing devices and creating new ones to include IoT and to design network-specific applications. This article focuses on one of such applications which uses Network Time Protocol by clock synchronization between systems all over the world. It...

Now, from my writing experience here at eLab, I have dealt with some funny and interesting concepts, but nothing quite like what I am about to show you. But bear with me here, aside from the questionably looking electronics you are about to glance, there might be something useful to...
