     El juguete consiste en 3 botones de un tamaño adecuado. Cada uno precederá a una tira o serie de leds. El programa ejecutará una instrucción que creará una secuencia de valores aleatorios, los cuales, por así decirlo, descenderán por las tiras de leds. El niño tendrá que presionar los botones en el tiempo en el que la luz alcanza y permanece en el botón. Muy similar al videojuego Guitar Hero. El aumento de dificultad es mediante el aumento de la rapidez de juego; será regulada según la posición de un potenciómetro. También será posible decidir el número de botones a usar.      El modo de uso no se limita a las manos, podrá ser usado con los pies sin problema alguno. Para hacer eso posible cada botón será independiente de los otros dos, lo que permitirá el acomodo más ergonómico de los botones según las limitaciones de movilidad del niño. Para evitar el desplazamiento de los botones por la superficie: suelo, alguna mesa... los botones se fijarán a un tapete de Velcro.

Pulse-width modulation (PWM), is a technique utilized in robotics for controlling motors and servos. Through the use of internal counters, the microcontroller modulates the duty cycle of a square wave to control the amount of power delivered to a device. The Duty Cycle referes to the porportion of time the square wave is 'on' as compared to the repeating signal period. The higher the duty cycle the higher the power carried in the signal. Duty cycle is expressed as a percentage of time the signal is 'on', with 100% being consistently on.  overview-create-a-pwm-signal Once you feel comfortable that you understand the concepts behind a duty cycle signal, return to Reference Manual: Timer Information portion of the Drive A DC Motor Tutorial

Many companies run the risk of animals such as rats and variety of insects invading plants or warehouses, where the products are liable to be contaminated, mainly food industry companies. For the above, we come up with the development of the “pest control using Freescale” which consists of implementing an electronic device that emits ultrasonic frequencies ranging from 30KHz to 65KHz generated by the FRDM KL25Z board transmitted by a buzzer and through an interface may change the operation time of our prototype. Therefore purpose of this project is to solve the pest problem in a "green way" to avoid damaging the environment. Original Attachment has been moved to: Pest_control_using_Freescale.rar

La descripción de este proyecto consta principalmente de tres elementos que destacan el primero y el cual es tomado como planta principal es un reloj despertador el cual esta conformado por un freedom, un LCD de 16x2 caract. y por una pequeña bocina, este será controlado para su funcionamiento con el módulo touch del micro-controlador; como segundo apartado se tiene una tira de LEDS que se empotra a la cabecera de la cama la cual contendrá un dimmer para controlar la cantidad de luz, teniendo como máxima intensidad la hora fijada en la alarma (como apoyo además de la bocina para lograr despertar) y por último un interruptor de apagado que se pretende colocar al otro lado de la habitación donde se desee incorporar el despertador, el cual tendrá forma de canasta de baloncesto, para que solamente al anotar una canasta sea la única forma de apagar la alarma y este proceso sea interactivo. Original Attachment has been moved to: fcup.zip

Project Summary In this project, you will learn how to do basic electrical automation and control via the web.  Think of the NEST.... only more open and hackable!   Using Websockets, Javascipt and HTML5,  you will have a simple way of viewing remote data and be able to control some solid state relays.   This framework will allow you to create more complex IoT applications.    The example will combine a FRDM-K64F and a FRDM-AUTO to read a temperature sensor and control a solid state relay. Skills Developed: Embedded Systems Networking Electrical Control Systems HTML5/Javascript - Websockets SOIC8 and 1206 Surface mount soldering Internet of "Things" Materials: FRDM-K64F FRDM-AUTO Development Tools mbed.org Google Chrome Notepad++ Example Code mbed.org Github Step 0: Prerequisite Videos The videos are organized into a nice YouTube playlist: FRDM-AUTO Hardware Overview MonkeyDo Software Overview Websockets & The MonkeyDo communication model Solid state relay introduction & sage Opto-coupler introduction & usage MonkeyDo system demonstration Step 1: Get a FRDM-AUTO & FRDM-K64 The build package is on the FRDM-AUTO site.   Note that for this exercise you only need to build the "OPTION 1" version.  Please let us know if you are interested in a pre-assembled version.  If there is enough demand we will get a lot assembled for purchase, I will get a Kickstarter going!   Don't be afraid to build it yourself,  Soldering is fun!  There is plenty of good stuff on the web on how to do SMT soldering.  All of the parts on the board are fairly simply once you get the hang of it and everything can be hand soldered  The key is having some decent tools. Step 2: Put it Together Assemble the FRDM-AUTO and K64F.   When you get started, do NOT hook up anything to the solid state relays until you are sure  things are working. WARNING:   Wiring to household power can be dangerous!   You are 100% responsible for what you do. Be careful and never apply power until you fundamentally understand what you are wiring up! Step 3: Download If you have never used the mbed environment,   make sure to careful read this page.   Get the "blinky" programming working before you try anything else. Download the example firmware to the FRDM-K64F.    Make sure to press the reset button. Step 4: Follow Along Make sure to watch the demo video.   Load the example javascript pages from the github repo and recreate what you see in the demo video.   Note:   You should NOT use the websocket server used in the demo code.     When you register for an mbed account, you automatically get your own websocket server channel. See Websocket server by Mbed. Step 5: Hack and Slash! Make something cool!   Be cool and publish your work! Some Ideas to Extend the System Get the opto-couplers into the Websocket system and see if you can report their state Make a basic thermostat using the temperature sensor and relay to control a heater. Report status via the websockets interface

We are thrilled to present to you, the newest member of our Apalis family of ARM powered computer-on-modules, the Apalis iMX6. The module is based on Freescale i.MX 6 series of System-on-Chip (SoC), runs an ARM Cortex-A9 CPU, and offers an operating frequency of up to 1.2 GHz. Apart from the benefits of long term product availability (of more than 10 years), and compatibility with the existing Apalis T30 module, this module is also qualified for industrial temperature range -40° C to 85° C. More details including datasheet shall be published by the last week of February. For a preliminary datasheet, click here. For more details on Apalis family, click here. To know more about the Apalis T30 module, click here. Here's a first look at the module.

Depending on which MCU Devlopment board you have chosen, you will need to figure out a way to mount this to the chassis. I have seen everything from cardboard, to aluminum, to wood. Below is a template complete with CAD drawings to mount the Qorivva TRK-MPC5604B board and the Motor Board onto the chassis. We use plexiglass for ours, but any other millable material is appropriate. The large hole in the middle is for cables from the servo. We attach the board to the car using the plastic standoffs (you will need them 55 mm long, so in our case, we used the combination of 40 + 15 mm) - see an example (SOS code 10260). To attach both the processor and interface boards the simillar 5mm plastic standoffs were used. Preview (.pdf) CAD file (.dxf)
