What If Sensors Had Spidey-Senses?

What If Sensors Had Spidey-Senses? What’s That Tingling Feeling? The IoT or IIoT sensors causing that tingling sensation has Spider-Senses. Yes, you read that right: a sensor capable of predicting events before they occur. Instead of just measuring a start location and an end position, picture it keeping track of the distance between two points. What if the origin's location has moved relative to the target location? The sensors in a Spidey-like sense would immediately detect this and as soon as a disparity is recognized, course correction activates to reflect the new position. Embedded inside each of these smart sensors is a supervised machine-learning algorithm aware of its environment and with each additional bit of data it collects it models the world in real-time to optimize tasks. None of this requires the addition of any extra code. These smart sensors improves the process flow the same as a linter would to make your coding better. Equipped to deal with anomalies ...

Would You Like Some Raspberry Pi?

What Type of Raspberry Pi? Let's examine the Raspberry Pi in more detail; it comes in a number of varieties. Today, we'll examine two Raspberry Pi models: the Pico, a microcontroller that can operate the stepper motor of a 3D printer, and the Pi 4, a single-board computer that runs the online game-friendly Ubuntu LTS 22.04 "Jammy Jellyfish" operating system. What products are suitable for Raspberry Pi? The answer is that it depends on what you are trying to accomplish. For instance, a Pico is a realistic option if all you want to do is control a touch screen. However, if you want to build a smart mirror, go with a Pi 4. What is going on here? Why one and not the other, you ask? Okay, I'll admit it all depends on the application . The former is better suited for modest electronic projects, while the latter can manage electronic systems. How do you choose which Pi to pair with which projects? Utilize the Pico if you want to control an automatic irrigation system fo...
