For some measurements, selecting the right sensor simply involves a few parameters such as range, accuracy, and precision. However, applications with network communication and environmental issues such as temperature extremes and high humidity...
Vision technology continues to evolve and offer users more choices. Is a CCD or CMOS sensor required? Find out from our expert in this tutorial.
Choosing the right sensor for industrial applications involves more than just the sensor technology used for the measurement. Other system requirements, including the network communication protocol, play equally important roles. Our expert will...
Most developers start debugging their code after it has been compiled and linked. That's a mistake! There will be bugs. In this session you'll learn to anticipate bugs, and to seed your code with constructs that capture the problems.
The quality revolution taught us that quality must be designed in, not bolted on. Yet the firmware industry has missed this critical point. Spend an hour with us and get the low-down on measuring bugs, and strategies to build error-free code from...
Though commercial RTOSs have been around for 30 years, there's still a lot of confusion about what they're all about. Join us for a discussion about what's behind an RTOS, and what the benefits are. We'll also dispel some long-held myths.
The schedule grows much faster than the code size does. The only tool we know to defeat this is partitioning. Join us to see why most of the multicore hype is, well, hype, and how to really use multicore to partition a system effectively.
Most engineers building real-time systems rely on hope and miracles to get their systems working properly in the time domain. In this session you'll learn no-nonsense ways to deal with real-time issues, including hardware timing effects on firmware.
This lecture will survey the variety of hardware- and software-development tools available. We'll also provide you with an appreciation of the capabilities of free and paid tools, and an understanding of what you need in those tools.
