So I heard about this watchdog timer thing, with lots of processes, it's kinda confusing. How do I make use of watchdog timer properly in my RTOS? Maybe having each task send a little signal with its own special ID?

guys need a solution like if i have a application were if the led strips of a road side led strip stops working it will send alert how can we detect if one or more strips of leds breaks down in a single street light

Got a Circuit Playground Express board from Adafruit for a project: https://learn.adafruit.com/adafruit-circuit-playground-express/overview

Anyone used one of these before? Definitely meant for beginners, but wow it has an amazing amount of stuff built in.

'm working on a project where I'd like people to be able to duplicate it. Something like this seems like a really good way to let people do that, even if using a soldering iron and other things that we take for granted would be a challenge.

You mean the street lamps or in-road lighting? If you're looking for street lights are you talking about a sensor node or the whole end-to-end system? If just the node I'd look for a small, low-power based LoRa platform (provided the municipality has a gateway or there's one available to use that meets security/data requriements) and we can talk about additional design requirement from there.

techielew•3/19/24, 6:16 AM

Hi Al Aqel, welcome! Great to learn your interests! Well I’m not sure how extensive your experience is but the GCC compiler will handle a lot of cross compilation for microcontroller firmware development.

There are hardware abstraction layers (HALs) for higher level programming (like applications). A good place to start might be explaining more specifically something you’re trying to build/do/learn so we can point you in directions for that area.

You’re entering a big world!

I am using esp32-s3 as main controller to interface a flow sensor to get the volume and need to display it via a spi display interface the GUI middleware is LVGL and need to some data to send to the server using rest API(wifi) and also need to interface a sd card for data logging and need to use bluetooth also and OTA to update the firmware may i know any example code or project using esp-idf frawmework for me to refences ?

aymen ammari•3/19/24, 8:31 AM

Or How about building a smart plant disease detection system using STM32, You could integrate image processing capabilities into the STM32 microcontroller using a lightweight AI model, such as a convolutional neural network (CNN). The system could be equipped with a camera to capture images of plant leaves, and the STM32 would analyze these images in real-time to detect signs of diseases or pests. Depending on the detected issues, the system could trigger alerts, provide recommendations for treatment, or even autonomously administer treatments such as spraying pesticides or applying fertilizers. This project combines the power of AI for image recognition with the real-time processing capabilities of the STM32 microcontroller to aid in crop protection and management

Joseph Ogbonna•3/19/24, 10:01 AM

In an RTOS, use the watchdog timer to monitor tasks' execution. Each task should periodically reset the watchdog timer to prevent it from timing out. If a task fails to reset the timer within its allotted time, it indicates a fault, triggering appropriate error handling. Sending signals with task IDs could aid in identifying which task caused the watchdog timeout, improving debugging.

Hi Sabrine i suggest you to develop a handheld water quality tester with STM32 that measures parameters like pH.

And use Ai algorithms to analyze the data and provide instant feedback on water quality.

Morning everyone

I am trying to control a set of relays with the GPIO of an esp8266. I have installed espeasy, and I can control the GPIO with an HTTP command. I would like to be able to do this with MQTT. My broker is a Raspberry Pi, and the test signals are passing well with the protocol. Now, I would like to achieve this with espeasy without using Jeedom or other home automation assistants.
Has anyone tried this before????Because I can’t find any tuto similar to my project.

Umesh Lokhande•3/19/24, 2:00 PM

Yes, I agree with @boualleg sabrina. If RPi is running MQTT broker s/w and acting as an IoT Server. Then connect your home devices as a client and control them. This way you can avoid all third-party services. The only limitation is you won't have access from outside of your home network. There is a way out but I'd not recommend RPi to make it public access for security reasons.
