We build a lamp to set the desired colour via Bluetooth using a special App. The project is based on Mercury System, created for the development of connectivity and IoT applications. The lighting sector, like many other so to speak “historical” sectors, is experiencing, in recent years, increasing penetration by electronics and connectivity….
We analyze the software of the project and the user interface, which is an App developed with Android Studio. A well defined message map determines how app and firmware should exchange information. Second and last episode. In the previous post we have described how to configure and assemble in a few steps the hardware of…
As the hot season comes closer, the problem of watering the lawn in the garden or the plants on the balcony or terrace arises again. For the management of small and medium systems, there are many commercial solutions, but these are often systems that have been in use for years, which are struggling to…
Let’s complete the description of the modular development system dedicated to connectivity and IoT, deepening the discussion of the dedicated framework. Second Episode. In the article published in the previous issue, we introduced the Mercury System, an innovative development system, particularly suitable for IoT and connectivity-oriented applications. At that time we focused on…
Modular development system that simplifies connectivity and IoT applications: based on boards that can be combined as LEGO bricks, on a complete software framework. Allows scalability and modularity. The Internet of Things (or IoT, whether you prefer), ie the capacity of certain objects, equipped with sensors, actuators and wireless interfaces, to connect to the…
The first version (1.0.0) of Mercury System Framework (MSF) has been released. The Mercury System Framework (MSF) is a layered SW framework specifically designed to support application development with Mercury System. It provides to the user a complete set of base functionalities to easily interface MS Slave Boards (SB) and Modem Boards (MB) as well as…
For those who have not given up their high quality SLR cameras or their vintage camera lenses for more compact smartphone cameras, you know how much purchasing, maintaining, and adapting a good quality camera can cost. Generally though, the quality of shots, along with the century old process of developing photos make the results worth…
