In this one we will making your own PSoC programmer called the KitProg for about $20. A little bit of soldering is recommended, but not strictly required. This programmer will allow you debug PSoC 4 and 5LP devices, including the PiSoC! As a reminder, you can always USB bootload the PiSoC, which allows programming without […]
In this tutorial we are going to show how to use the PiSoC as a Labview Linx device. This will let you interact with digital and analog IO inside of the labview interface. This project was designed by students from The Design Lab at Rensselaer. Install You’ll need to program or bootload your PiSoC+ with […]
In this project I use hand gestures to control Neopixel LEDs and Servo motors. Check it out in action below: As you may already know, you can write Python code for the PiSoC that lets you control various peripherals. Here I demonstrate why that is so powerful; you can work with other Python libraries simultaneously, which […]
At last, a more detailed description of the Face Tracking camera! As you may have guessed, this project will use a pan/tilt mounted camera to find faces within a video stream, and then move two servo motors controlled by the PiSoC to place any detected faces into the center of the frame. This kind […]
Hi Folks, This project tries to find the brightest light source in the room, using a solar panel and a pan/tilt bracket with servos. It will sweep the solar panel around and then look at the brightest light source. This could be extended to actively track the light source after acquiring it. I got this […]
Here’s one of the more versatile projects you can make with the PiSoC. It’s a fully functional 1Msps 2-channel Oscilloscope, and an up to 10kHz arbitrary waveform generator. These are perfect for hobbyist and classroom use. The waveform generator can actually already be used in our Python API that ships with the PiSoC if that’s […]
In this project I use the PiSoC to control the temperature of my fridge. This is needed for fermenting lager at 55 degrees Fahrenheit, which is well above the temperature a fridge would normally run at. This is accomplished by monitoring the temperature inside the fridge, and then using a relay to switch the fridge […]
