When working with IoT devices, it’s always useful when an identifier that’s unique to each device can be generated with the same code. And what better to use for the unique ID than the device’s own MAC address.Take a look…
This week, we would like to share an Application Note that serves as the definitive guide on generating Pulse Width Modulated (PWM) signals on the Omega2 family of devices. The App Note covers both software and hardware PWM signal generation…
We have such a great project to share with you today featuring hardware hacking, clever software work, and integration with Google Assistant! This project demonstrates an alternative but equally effective method for connecting the Omega2 to Google Assistant as the…
With many IoT devices configuration can be time-consuming and involve jumping through a lot of hoops. So much time can be spent looking for that small, but by now very important bit of information to make it all click, when…
Hello to all you Onioneers once again and welcome to this week’s featured project – upcycling an old amp and hi-fi speakers to stream music from your favourite online source with the Omega2. Not only that, the Omega2 will automatically turn off…
Onion community member extraordinaire, Paul Cousins, is back again with a great update to his industrial machine monitor based on the Omega2 and Arduino Dock! To refresh your memory, the device is attached to an industrial sheet metal cutting machine and…
Omega Tip This week we have a video tutorial for you on Cross Compiling C programs for the Omega2. We'll walk you through setting up the Omega2 build system on your computer using Docker, cross compiling an example program, moving…
Hey there! Welcome to this special 2-Bullet Tuesday all about robotics, where we’ll share useful tips and awesome stuff sent in by Omega2 users all around the world. Check out creative projects and tutorials that will supercharge your IoT development! Favorite…
Omega Tip: Thesis Edition(!) This week's tip is all about using the Omega2 to control a robotic arm! The tip is brought to you by Daniel Vázquez Navarro and is actually his Bachelor's Thesis for the Barcelona School of Industrial Engineering! Daniel used an…
Omega Tip This week, we'll be going further with the Servo Expansion by writing a Python script to control our servos! Remember how last week we could set pulse widths from the command line? Well now with the Python script,…
