Inclinometer tests

By mvuilleu, in Measures and Reviews, february 14,2020.

For some applications, the Yocto-3D and the Yocto-3D-V2 can be used as inclinometers, as they can estimate their spatial orientation. But you may have noticed that we don't provide any accuracy information on the inclination measure in the specifications. To know more, we are going to compare these two modules today with the Murata SCL3300 precision inclinometer that we interfaced last week with a Yocto-SPI.

Querying an SPI sensor automatically

By mvuilleu, in Measures, february 07,2020.

After last week's post on how to query an SPI sensor by explicitly managing SPI communications using the Yoctopuce library, we are now going to show how the Yocto-SPI can make your life even easier, and above all simplify the code of the application.

Creating a software to query an SPI sensor contains a number of traps, linked to the specificities of this communication mode. This post provides some advice to avoid the most frequent pitfalls.

Installing the VirtualHub under Tiny Core Linux

By seb, in Programming and Misc, january 24,2020.

One of our customers asked us how to install the VirtualHub on the Tiny Core Linux distribution. To be honest, we had never heard of this distribution, but we discovered that this distribution made interesting technical choices. Thus, we are going to show you how to install the VirtualHub, or your own application, on Tiny Core Linux.

How to get started in LabVIEW with Yoctopuce modules

By martinm, in Programming and For the beginners, january 17,2020.

This week, we provide you with a short tutorial explaining the basis of the use of Yoctopuce modules into LabVIEW. We limit ourselves to a very simple application: turning on and off a light depending on the ambient light level.
