    When and why does embedded Electronic Control Unit(ECU) use default calibration values?

    Typical embedded ECU stores real calibration values and default calibration values in Non-Volatile Memory(NVM). Let's say ECU is Steering Controller and it's primary function is Lane Keep Assist(LKA). It is mounted in a commercial truck. It programs camera's real and default calibration values...

    Noob wants to understand Physical display driver

    So I've some experience with microcontrollers and making PCB's. I've been really interested in making a PCB for a "physical" display driver(saying physical so it will not be confused with a program). But the problem is, I can't find a single tip on working with the display driver components(Not...

    Designing a Low-cost USBL position system

    I would like to build an USBL (Ultr-Short Basline) system to localise an underwater object (an AUV, for exemple). However, it's hard to find low-cost parts to build this system. Could anyone recommend to me a supplier for low-cost (<200$) hydrophones and underwater transducers/transponders please?

    Achieving a transmission data underwater at 100 mts depth

    I need to develop a device that should transmit its position and some telemetry data underwater at a maximum depth of 100 m. Considering that RF waves don't propagate well underwater, I guess I'll have to use acoustics as solution. However, I have no idea what kind of material (Tx/Rx) I should...
