Fast Fourier Transformation (FFT) is a powerful tool in signal and image processing. One very valuable optimization technique for this type of algorithm is vectorization. This article discusses the motivation…
This year at GDC Khronos announced the latest version of the OpenGL® ES API. OpenGL ES 3.1 is taking a step up from OpenGL ES 3.0 to enable new, fascinating mobile graphics content. With headline features…
There was so much I wanted to share about my one day at Maker Faire that I needed to write two blogs. My first thoughts are in My First Maker Faire: Engineers and Kids at Play.Massimo launching the Arduino…
In this blog I look at system design patterns useful in the construction of IoT architecture solutions, with a focus on common patterns for interoperability.
Freescale's booth at Maker Faire featured a large 4320 LED video panel, controlled by a single Teensy 3.1 board powered by Freescale's Kinetis K20 MCU.
At Maker Faire in San Mateo Arduino and Atmel announced the Arduino Zero, powered by an Atmel ARM Cortex-M0+ based microcontroller.
The Arduino Zero is a great tool for prototyping, hobbyists and makers…
With the first Cortex-A53 based SoCs due to ship in the coming months, and Cortex-A57 based designs to follow early next year, ARM gave us a quick update on performance expectations for both cores. Given…
