If you can describe it, you can build it AI coding assistants are changing what makers and solopreneurs can build. Tasks that once demanded weeks of learning a new language, framework, or software stack can now be delegated to an AI—provided you know how to describe the job, judge the result, and keep control of the process. The Maker’s Guide to AI Coding is a practical guide to doing exactly that. It explains how to work with AI coding tools as collaborators rather than vending machines, how much to delegate, how to write specifications that produce useful results, and how to recognise hallucinations, context drift, overconfidence, and code that runs but is still wrong. The book is built around four increasingly ambitious projects. You begin with a browser-based RC filter analyser, then develop a live serial data plotter for Arduino and other microcontrollers. Next comes a datasheet questionand- answer tool using retrieval-augmented generation (RAG), followed by a complete multi-user resource booking system with authentication, a database, external services, background jobs, and deployment. No advanced programming background is required. The emphasis is on thinking clearly, guiding the AI, testing what it produces, and preserving the skills needed to evaluate its work. Along the way, you learn development workflow designed to remain useful as tools evolve. If you can describe what you want to build, this book shows you how to turn that description into working software.

Program, build, and master 60+ projects with the Wireless RP2040 The Raspberry Pi Pico and Pico W are based on the fast, efficient, and low-cost dual-core ARM Cortex M0+ RP2040 microcontroller chip running at up to 133 MHz and sporting 264 KB of SRAM and 2 MB of Flash memory. Besides spacious memory, the Pico and Pico W offer many GPIO pins, and popular peripheral interface modules like ADC, SPI, I²C, UART, PWM, timing modules, a hardware debug interface, and an internal temperature sensor. The Raspberry Pi Pico W additionally includes an on-board Infineon CYW43439 Bluetooth and Wi-Fi chipset. At the time of writing this book, the Bluetooth firmware was not yet available. Wi-Fi is however fully supported at 2.4 GHz using the 802.11b/g/n protocols. This book is an introduction to using the Raspberry Pi Pico W in conjunction with the MicroPython programming language. The Thonny development environment (IDE) is used in all of the 60+ working and tested projects covering the following topics: Installing the MicroPython on Raspberry Pi Pico using a Raspberry Pi or a PC Timer interrupts and external interrupts Analogue-to-digital converter (ADC) projects Using the internal temperature sensor and external sensor chips Using the internal temperature sensor and external temperature sensor chips Datalogging projects PWM, UART, I²C, and SPI projects Using Bluetooth, WiFi, and apps to communicate with smartphones Digital-to-analogue converter (DAC) projects All projects are tried & tested. They can be implemented on both the Raspberry Pi Pico and Raspberry Pi Pico W, although the Wi-Fi-based subjects will run on the Pico W only. Basic programming and electronics experience are required to follow the projects. Brief descriptions, block diagrams, detailed circuit diagrams, and full MicroPython program listings are given for all projects.

De schrijver laat niet alleen beginners maar ook gevorderden op professionele wijze en met verstand van zaken kennismaken met dit uiterst interessant onderwerp. Ook hobbyisten of professionals die hun kennis willen verdiepen of uitbreiden, krijgen daartoe in dit boek volop mogelijkheid. De moderne state-of-the-art AVR-processoren van Atmel vormen in combinatie met programmering in C een platform dat gedurende lange tijd actueel zal blijven. Na een inleiding en een kennismaking met de vereiste ontwikkelomgeving komen projecten aan bod die stap voor stap naar het gewenste doel leiden. Voor de meeste projecten wordt het Mini-Megaboard gebruikt – een experimenteerprint die oorspronkelijk in het maandblad Elektor is beschreven. Dit garandeert dat de beschreven projecten probleemloos kunnen worden nagebouwd. Maar natuurlijk kunnen ook eigen experimenteerprinten worden gebruikt – een van de doelstellingen van dit boek is immers dat de lezer uiteindelijk zelfstandig eigen schakelingen kan ontwerpen en bouwen. Een greep uit de inhoud: De juiste microcontroller De ontwikkelomgeving De eerste experimenten met de ?C Het Mini-Mega-board Beginselen van I/O Vloeibaar-kristal-displays Seriële data-overdracht Analoge in- en uitvoer Programmasturing met interrupts Timers en counters Geheugenoperaties De seriële I²C-bus en SPI Voorbeeldprojecten

Vom Messwert zur stabilen Entscheidung Wie wird aus einem einfachen Mikrocontroller ein intelligentes System, das Sensorwerte erfasst, verarbeitet und sinnvoll darauf reagiert? Dieses Buch zeigt es Ihnen Schritt für Schritt – verständlich, praxisnah und ohne unnötige Vorkenntnisse. Sie beginnen mit den Grundlagen der digitalen und analogen Ein- und Ausgänge. Anschließend lernen Sie, wie Sensorwerte gelesen, geglättet und zuverlässig bewertet werden. Anschauliche Beispiele erklären, warum einzelne Messwerte oft täuschen können und wie Mittelwertbildung, Hysterese und einfache Entscheidungsregeln für stabile Ergebnisse sorgen. Nach und nach erweitern Sie Ihre Projekte um Displays, I²C-Kommunikation und mehrere vernetzte Mikrocontroller. So entstehen verteilte Systeme, in denen Raspberry Pi Pico und ATtiny-Controller Daten austauschen und gemeinsam Aufgaben übernehmen. Im fortgeschrittenen Teil erhalten Sie einen leicht verständlichen Einstieg in Merkmalsbildung, Datenvorverarbeitung, hybride Entscheidungsmodelle und TinyML-nahe Anwendungen. Dabei verbinden Sie klassische Regelungstechnik mit modernen datenbasierten Methoden. Alle Projekte werden von ausführlich kommentierten Programmen in C und MicroPython begleitet. Das Buch richtet sich an Einsteiger, Maker, Studierende und alle, die Embedded-Systeme von Grund auf verstehen möchten. Am Ende können Sie eigene Systeme entwickeln, die nicht nur messen, sondern Informationen auswerten, zuverlässige Entscheidungen treffen und gezielt reagieren.

This book is all about building your own DIY home control system. It presents two innovative ways to assemble such a system: By recycling old PC hardware – possibly extending the life of an old PC, or by using Raspberry Pi. In both cases, the main system outlined in this book will consist of a computer platform, a wireless mains outlet, a controller and a USB webcam – All linked together by Linux. By using the Raspberry Pi in conjunction with Arduino (used as an advanced I/O system board), it is possible to construct a small, compact, embedded control system offering enhanced capacity for USB integration, webcams, thermal monitoring and communication with the outside world. The experience required to undertake the projects within this book are minimal exposure to PC hardware and software, the ability to surf the internet, burn a CD-ROM and assemble a small PCB.

In het elektronicatijdschrift 'Elektor' is dan ook al een groot aantal speciale toepassingen en printen met een ATmega- of een ATtiny-controller gepubliceerd. Meestal ging het daarbij om afgeronde projecten. In dit boek staat echter de programmering van deze controllers centraal. BASCOM is hiervoor een ideaal gereedschap. Na een minimale voorbereiding kunt u al beginnen uw eigen ideeën te realiseren. BASCOM en AVR-controllers, een onverslaanbaar team! Wat u ook wilt ontwikkelen, in de meeste gevallen heeft een ATmega alles aan boord wat u nodig hebt. Poorten, timers, A/D-omzetters, PWM-uitgangen en seriële interfaces, RAM, flash-ROM en EEPROM: alles is ruimschoots voorhanden. En met BASCOM is het gebruik daarvan kinderspel. Ook ingewikkelder periferie als LCD, RC5 en I²C kan met slechts een handjevol instructies worden gebruikt. Er is een brede hardware-basis beschikbaar. Of u nu de STK500 van Atmel gebruikt, de ATM18 of een eigen print, u kunt de voorbeelden uit dit boek meteen in praktijk brengen. Voor heel kleine taken worden controllers uit de ATtiny-reeks gebruikt. Op die manier kunt u uw eigen projecten snel en met weinig kosten realiseren. Downloads Software
