How to start with Yoctopuce modules on Android in 2022

By seb, in Android and For the beginners, february 20,2022.

This week we are updating our Android tutorial. With the various Android updates, and more particularly of the SDK, some things were no longer up to date. Like the last time, we are going to write a small application that displays the value of a temperature sensor connected by USB.

Using inertial sensors in a vehicle

By mvuilleu, in Measures and Misc, february 11,2022.

MEMS inertial sensors used in products such as the Yocto-Inclinometer or the Yocto-3D-V2 can determine their orientation with regards to terrestrial gravity, like an electronic spirit level. It is tempting to use them to measure the orientation of moving objects, such as vehicles, but it's not as easy as we might hope. Here are some explanations on the difficulties one might expect, as a reminder of your kinematic physics courses...

Structure of a Yoctopuce application

By martinm, in For the beginners and Programming, february 04,2022.

This week's post is dedicated to beginners who have just received their first Yoctopuce module and who wonder about the kind of code they are going to need to write to make it work. So we are going to talk about the general structure of an application using Yoctopuce modules.

Ventilating a room depending on the CO2 rate

By seb, in Internet of Things, january 28,2022.

This week, we are going to talk about a popular topic these days: the ventilation of a work room. CO2 being a good indicator of air "pollution", we are going to see how to automate the opening of motorized Velux skylight windows depending on the CO2 rate inside a room.

Using Yoctopuce sensors with Prometheus and Grafana

By mvuilleu, in Measures, january 21,2022.

A few years ago, we showed you how to integrate Yoctopuce sensors in a Grafana dashboard used with InfluxDB, which was a very common solution at the time. In the mean time, GrafanaLabs has set its sights on another time-series database, Prometheus, which offer many more possibilities to extract data than InfluxDB. We have therefore added to our modules the possibility to provide their data in a format directly recognized by Prometheus.
