Tech the Future
Brain Controlled-Tech and the Future of Wireless
Phil Vreugdenhil (Instructor, Camosun College)

Wireless IoT devices are becoming increasingly common in both private and public spaces. Phil Vreugdenhil, an instructor at Camosun College in Canada, recently shared his thoughts on the future of 'Net-connected wireless technology and the ways users will interact with it.

I see brain-controlled software and hardware seamlessly interacting with wireless IoT devices.  I also foresee people interacting with their enhanced realities through fully integrated NEMS (nano-electromechancical systems) which also communicate directly with the brain, bypassing the usual pathways (eyes, ears, nose, touch, taste) much like cochlear implants and bionic eyes. I see wireless health-monitoring ... Continue Reading

Flowcode 7 (Article 5)
Ghost Technology
 
Flowcode features several debugging tools designed to help you develop your programs, get them working reliably, and eliminate any bugs. The fifth article in this series deals with the debugging features. 

In the first article in this series, you were introduced to Flowcode 7, flowchart-driven electronic IDE that enables you to produce hex code for more than 1,300 different microcontrollers, including PIC8, PIC16, PIC32, AVR, Arduino, and ARM. The second article detailed how to get working with displays in Flowcode. The third article detailed some of the more complex communications components, Modbus and DMX. The fourth article detailed the Matrix Industrial Automotive Controller (MIAC), which gives you the ruggedness and power of a PLC with the flexibility and ease of programming a controller. It covered how to use a MIAC and Flowcode 7 in an application. Read all the articles
