Sensors are devices that detect changes in the surrounding environment and respond with some output on another system. They convert a physical phenomenon into a measurable signal that can be read, transmitted and processed. The interest in sensors is constantly growing, given the need to measure physical, chemical and biological quantities in numerous application areas: equipment monitoring, industrial processes, medical analysis and diagnostics, robotics, environmental controls, civil construction . In fact, there are many systems whose performance has improved thanks to the use of sensors.
After several years of testing different devices and software for the smart home, I found the definitive solution: Home Assistant. It is an open-source home automation platform that allows you to control and monitor various devices and services within your home. It serves as a centralized hub that connects and Read more…
The latest developments in Computer Aided Engineering, by means of the remarkable progress that several softwares have been made in terms of computational speed and of enlarged ranges of phaenomena that can be simulated and accurately analyzed, represent an immense span to inventiveness. For this particular instance, it is also Read more…
Among the exams scheduled in the Medical Engineering course at the University of Rome Tor Vergata there is the course of Wireless Electromagnetics Technologies. The course provides the foundation for current and next generation wireless services, including radio and video transmission, radar tracking, mobile and personal communications, wireless sensor networks, Read more…
Among the infinite simulation solutions in the Simulink environment there is clearly the possibility to analyze different flight systems. In particular, in this article, I discuss my experience on an avionics box made up of two boards, an Arduino Due and a Raspberry Pi, which together with several specially designed Read more…
The aim of the project is to show how it is possible to control a clamp and its rotation through a signal from some sensors such as an inertial sensor and an electromyography sensor. The structure is very simple and is designed in full accordance with the Maker philosophy, trying Read more…
The project involves the creation of one or more monitoring stations of the domestic environment which can possibly, with due care, be extended to public and / or corporate environments. Idea The project was born from the idea of raising awareness on issues such as environmental comfort and how the Read more…
Collaboration with a student of the Aerospace Engineering excellence course of the University of Rome La Sapienza for the design of a flight computer for model rockets. Rocket modeling is a specialty of modeling that deals with the creation of flying models of space vectors, rockets, missiles, reproductions or fantasy. Read more…
I just finished a course on IoT and applications with Arduino and Raspberry Pi. The course is a bit distracting but certainly very interesting. The topics covered are very interesting and can certainly have a practical feedback given the recent development of the Internet of Things in many areas. What Read more…
