Understanding VxWorks Multitasking and Inter-Task Communication

Introduction to VxWorks

Before learning VxWorks, readers are expected to have a foundation in computer networks, operating systems, C/C++, and network communication. It is recommended to read CSAPP to build a solid foundation. VxWorks is a high-performance real-time operating system launched by Wind River Systems in the USA, which is now widely used in various large-scale projects. Companies like Tplink also use VxWorks as the operating system for certain routers. Real-time systems are divided into hard real-time and soft real-time, with

Arduino Launches 9-Core Portenta X8 and Portenta Max Carrier for Rapid Prototyping

As one of the most famous open-source hardware platforms in the world, Arduino's friendly development approach provides very convenient development tools for makers and electronics enthusiasts worldwide.
Makers can quickly turn their ideas into real products.
In the early days, most people were introduced to the AVR 8-bit microcontroller or the popular ESP8266 and ESP32 in recent years. In fact, many MCU-level chips from various brands

Exploring the Potential of Mini LED Display Solutions in Automotive Applications

With the rapid development of smart cars, in-vehicle displays, as an important window for human-computer interaction, have been evolving continuously with their unique technology applications. High resolution, high brightness, high contrast, high color saturation, low power consumption, fast response speed, thin thickness, and long lifespan have become the quality requirements for a new generation of high-quality in-vehicle displays.

From the perspective of display technology, OLED and Mini/Micro LED self-luminous direct display technology will become the ultimate display solution in the future.

Flagship Laptop with MiniLED Flip Screen

In the notebook screen field, the most common types are LCD and OLED screens, with the former being more prevalent and the latter being an emerging configuration.(For notebooks)

Today, our protagonist is the ROG Zephyrus 16 Flip version, which is rare in adopting a miniLED screen, its biggest advantage isbrightness, with a peak brightness of1100nit(typical value), suitable for watching HDR videos and playing large games that support HDR effects.

So how does this computer perform in real-world testing? Let’s do a brief

Common Embedded Operating Systems

Common Embedded Operating Systems

In embedded system development, choosing the right operating system (OS) is crucial. Different embedded operating systems have different characteristics, resource usage, and applicable scenarios. Here are some commonly used embedded operating systems and their brief introductions:

1. Real-Time Operating Systems (RTOS)

1. FreeRTOS

  • Introduction: FreeRTOS is an open-source real-time operating system widely used in microcontrollers and small embedded systems.

  • Features:

    • • Lightweight, with minimal kernel resource usage.

    • • Provides basic RTOS functionalities such as task management, queues, semaphores, and

Installing OpenCV on Raspberry Pi 4B for Mobile Robot Control

opencv

This article introduces the installation of OpenCV on Raspberry Pi 4B. Due to the relatively large project, it is developed in C++ rather than Python, making the installation of OpenCV somewhat more complex.

During the installation process, some issues may arise due to the OpenCV version being too high for the Raspberry Pi system. A relatively lower version can be used. This article uses OpenCV 4.1.0, and both C++ and Python versions are installed together.

The default version of Python on Raspberry

Top 13 Things Android Developers Should Not Miss at Google I/O

Top 13 Things Android Developers Should Not Miss at Google I/O

Author / Maru Ahues Bouza, Director, Android Developer Relations

There are only a few platforms in the world that help developers easily build their creations and distribute them to billions of users across various devices— not just on phones, but also on TVs, cars, tablets, watches, and more. At the recently held Google I/O, we introduced many ways to seize these opportunities on the Android platform and use Modern

Building a 28-Core Raspberry Pi Cluster with Docker: A $500 Setup Guide

Machine Heart Compilation

Machine Heart Editorial Department
Coding, writing blogs, and making fun projects are common ways for programmers to level up. Many experts have a habit of writing blogs and are quite hands-on. Today, we introduce WILL HO, a machine learning enthusiast who enjoys blogging. He not only registered his own blog site but also built a 28-core Raspberry Pi cluster for self-hosting. During this process, he learned many skills including Linux, Docker, Docker Swarm, Kubernetes, DNS, TLS, and network topology.

A PC that can fit in the palm of your hand.
If someone mentions a handheld PC today, they almost certainly mean a smartphone. However, Raspberry Pi enthusiasts always find ways to showcase their retro side. With minimal technical improvements and some outdated console components along with a real mechanical keyboard, you can have a DIY PC that fits in the palm of your hand. This is what the Penkesu project aims to achieve.
