Realize your own projects with the Elektor Arduino Nano MCCAB Training Board The microcontroller is probably the most fascinating subfield of electronics. Due to the multitude of functions, it combines on its chip, it is a universal multi-tool for developers to realize their projects. Practically every device of daily use today is controlled by a microcontroller. However, for an electronic layman, realizing his own ideas with a microcontroller has so far remained a pipe dream due to its complexity. The Arduino concept has largely simplified the use of microcontrollers, so that now even laymen can realize their own electronics ideas with a microcontroller. Book & Hardware in the Bundle: 'Learning by Doing' This book, which is included in the bundle, shows how you can realize your own projects with a microcontroller even without much experience in electronics and programming languages. It is a microcontrollers hands-on course for starters, because after an overview of the internals of the microcontroller and an introduction to the programming language C, the focus of the course is on the practical exercises. The reader acquires the necessary knowledge by 'learning by doing': in the extensive practical section with 12 projects and 46 exercises, what is learned in the front part of the book is underpinned with many examples. The exercises are structured in such a way that the user is given a task to solve using the knowledge built up in the theoretical part of the book. Each exercise is followed by a sample solution that is explained and commented on in detail, which helps the user to solve problems and compare it with his own solution. Arduino IDE The Arduino IDE is a software development environment that can be downloaded for free to your own PC and that contains the entire software package needed for your own microcontroller projects. You write your programs ('apps') with the IDE’s editor in the C programming language. You translate them into the bits and bytes that the microcontroller understands using the Arduino IDE's built-in compiler, and then load them into the microcontroller's memory on the Elektor Arduino MCCAB Nano Training Board via a USB cable. Query or control external sensors, motors or assemblies In addition to an Arduino Nano microcontroller module, the Elektor Arduino Nano MCCAB Training Board contains all the components required for the exercises, such as light-emitting diodes, switches, pushbuttons, acoustic signal transmitters, etc. External sensors, motors or assemblies can also be queried or controlled with this microcontroller training system.

1-Wire ist die Bezeichnung für eine serielle Schnittstelle, die mit nur einer Datenader auskommt. Es ist ein Master-Multi-Slave-Kommunikationsprotokoll. Verfügbar sind integrierte Bausteine zur Temperaturmessung, Akkuüberwachung, Echtzeituhr und beispielsweise Hotelschließanlagen. Eine Besonderheit von 1-Wire-Geräten ist die Spannungsversorgung aus der Gegenstation, hierbei erfolgt die Versorgung der Slaves über die Datenleitung. Der Leser erhält mit „Das 1-Wire-Praxisbuch“ eine umfassende Einführung in die 1-Wire-Technologie. Das Buch zeigt anhand praktischer Projekte zum Nachbauen, wie man verschiedene verfügbare 1-Wire-Chips in eigene Mikrocontroller-gesteuerte Anwendungen integrieren kann, und zwar mit Assembler-Software-Implementierungen für PIC-Mikrocontroller und mit Sketches für den Arduino. Die 1-Wire-Technik kommt in dem Buch praxisnah bei einem elektronischen Schloss zum Einsatz, das von einem PIC-Mikrocontroller gesteuert wird. Ein weiteres Praxisprojekt erläutert Schritt für Schritt, wie beispielsweise eine ständige Temperaturmessung mit 1-Wire-Bausteinen möglich ist.

Das Programmpaket Laboratory Virtual Instrument Engineering Workbench (oder kurz LabVIEW) ist ein international anerkannter Standard zur Entwicklung und Gestaltung von Messgeräten und Prozesssteueroberflächen. Seine Universalität konfrontiert den LabVIEW-Einsteiger allerdings mit einer unübersichtlichen Vielfalt von Funktionen, die er ohne fundierte Anleitung kaum überblicken kann. Hier setzt diese neue mehrteilige Lehrbuchreihe an: Von Grund auf werden in einfach nachvollziehbaren Schritten der Aufbau, die Struktur und die Verwendung von LabVIEW erklärt, in praktischen Beispielen dargestellt und mit Übungen vertieft. Die notwendigen Vorkenntnisse sind äußerst gering, die erreichbaren Ergebnisse dagegen äußerst sehenswert. Der erste Band erläutert die Grunddatentypen und die zugehörigen numerischen Grundfunktionen ebenso ausführlich wie die elementaren Programmstrukturen. Im folgenden Band liegt der Schwerpunkt bei der Kopplung beliebiger Mikrocontrollersysteme über die serielle (USB-)Schnittstelle an den PC und an LabVIEW. Im dritten Band stehen Entwurf und Betrieb kompletter MSR-Systeme mit Hard- und Softwarekomponenten der wichtigsten Messtechnikhersteller im Vordergrund, einschließlich Fernsteuerung, -überwachung und -diagnose über das Internet oder WLAN-Systeme. Diese Lehrbuchreihe richtet sich an Schüler/Auszubildende technischer Bildungseinrichtungen, an Studenten von Fachhochschulen/Universitäten und an den engagierten Praktiker in der Industrie oder im privaten Bereich.

AI Projects for the Raspberry Pi with the AI HAT+ Edge AI is transforming everyday devices by putting intelligence where it matters most: directly inside the hardware. With on-device inference, a camera can recognize a visitor instantly, a phone can translate speech without streaming audio to the cloud, and a wearable can detect anomalies in real time—fast, private, and reliable even when the network disappears. This book is your practical guide to building exactly those kinds of systems with the Raspberry Pi AI HAT+ and the Hailo-8L accelerator. You’ll start with clear foundations: core AI and machine-learning concepts, how neural networks work, and what truly distinguishes Edge AI from cloud AI—plus an honest look at ethical considerations and future impacts. Then it’s straight to hands-on physical computing. Step by step, you’ll set up Raspberry Pi OS, power and cooling, and develop in Python using the Thonny IDE. You’ll learn GPIO basics with lights and servos, mount the AI HAT+ hardware, install and verify the Hailo software stack, and connect the right camera—official modules or USB webcams, even multiple cameras. From your first pipeline to real projects, you’ll run person detection, pose estimation, segmentation, and depth estimation, then level up with YOLO object detection: smart alerts, guest counters, and custom extensions. You’ll even connect vision to motion by combining gesture recognition with servo-driven mechanisms, including a robotic arm. With troubleshooting tips, hardware essentials, and a practical Python refresher, this book turns Edge AI from buzzword into buildable reality.

The story of the engineers who shaped the world's most powerful chip machines How do you transform a hopeless research and business activity into a billion-dollar machine and a world-leading company? The Dutch enterprise ASML pulled it off, and the book ASML’s Architects by renowned technology writer René Raaijmakers reveals exactly how. ASML's Architects travels back to the origins, struggles, success factors and sheer luck of a company that was barely alive at the beginning of the 80s, yet managed to become the uncontested world leader in chip lithography. Today, ASML determines the pace at which all information technology advances. The book covers the technology and the business, but the real story is in the people behind them. Throughout its pages, the interviewed engineers, scientists and managers speak frankly about their struggles, their fights and the grueling teamwork behind the scenes.
