Computations in Yoctopuce serial interface modules

By mvuilleu, in New stuff, june 14,2019.

A few months ago, we showed you how to use a Yoctopuce serial interface module to automatically handle a serial sensor of type TTL, SPI, RS232, or RS485. This week, we enrich this feature to enable you to perform arithmetic computations directly in the Yoctopuce module, in order to obtain values that you can use straight away with an HTTP callback for example.

Linux aarch64 support for the VirtualHub and libraries

By seb, in New stuff, june 07,2019.

More and more customers are starting to use our devices with Linux aarch64. Last December we explained how to recompile some of our libraries to run on this platform. This week we are completing support for this platform by releasing a new VirtualHub that runs on Linux aarch64 (also known as arm64), and we are also adding support for aarch64 in the C++, Java, python, PHP and Javascript libraries.

Accuracy improvement for some devices

By mvuilleu, in New stuff and Measures, march 29,2019.

We recently took some time to study whether it was possible to improve the accuracy of some of our analog sensors with simple software changes. In particular, we suspected that it was possible to improve the sampling strategy to reduce the noise margin on some measures. Good news: it works and a simple firmware update on some modules is sufficient to make them really more accurate on some measures :-)

New! The Yocto-Temperature-IR

By martinm, in New stuff and Measures, march 22,2019.

It was pointed out to us that we didn't have an infrared temperature sensor in our module range. Not to worry, this week we present our brand new Yocto-Temperature-IR. Follow the guide.

New: the Yocto-VOC-V3

By mvuilleu, in New stuff and Measures, march 08,2019.

Here is again a product enhancement news, this time about our volatile organic compound (VOC) sensor. From now on, the Yocto-VOC-V3 replaces the Yocto-VOC-V2. As usual, neither the form factor, nor the sensor position, nor the software API changes from one version to the other. And for once, the newer version is even a bit cheaper than the old one...
