It can work with Max30102 in parallel right?

Ming•5/25/24, 3:51 PM

You will need a PPG for the SpO2 & heartbeat - but yes, it will work with them in parallel

aymen ammariOP•5/25/24, 3:52 PM

What is PPG?

Ming•5/25/24, 3:53 PM

It's photoplethysmogram - https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Photoplethysmogram
Here's an article on it's use - https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC6426305/

Photoplethysmogram

A photoplethysmogram (PPG) is an optically obtained plethysmogram that can be used to detect blood volume changes in the microvascular bed of tissue. A PPG is often obtained by using a pulse oximeter which illuminates the skin and measures changes in light absorption. A conventional pulse oximeter monitors the perfusion of blood to the dermis an...

Hey everyone,

I wanted to share something exciting I’ve been learning about recently Edge AI and its impact on embedded systems and IoT. Edge AI is the practice of running AI algorithms locally on embedded devices, rather than relying on cloud processing... Have any of you worked with Edge AI?

I think @Navadeep may have used it. I did a review of it a while back with Chris Rogers. However it was years ago so a lot has probably changed since then.

Marvee Amasi•5/27/24, 3:09 PM

I used to think that

low-power design

low-power design

is all about fancy hardware , but honestly Software plays a big role.
How is that ??
1. Put unused stuff to sleep

: Clock gating dims the lights on idle modules, while power gating cuts the power completely.
2. Smart task scheduling

: Try not to overwork your processor. Schedule your tasks efficiently and let it nap in low-power modes.
3. Tell peripherals to chill

:
Our Sensors and displays are energy hogs. Turn them off when you are not using them and configure them for power-saving modes also.
4. Code like a pro

: Choose efficient algorithms, use power-saving instructions, and eliminate unnecessary operations.

nour_oud•5/29/24, 11:40 AM

I think it is a great idea to integrate LLM into Embeetle, but making it work offline will not be easy or possible for everyone because it would require high performance computers. I think it would also be good if you host the LLM model and offer the AI as a service for people who can’t deploy it locally.

Hey guys currently, I am designing monitoring environmental sensors for a large geographic area. The sensors will collect data such as temperature, humidity, and air quality. Should I use LoRaWAN or NB-IoT for connectivity, considering factors such as device density, coverage, data rate, power consumption, infrastructure costs, and application requirements? Which one would be more suitable for my project to transmit this sensor data?

Joseph Ogbonna•5/30/24, 2:04 PM

If you're trying to find the right connectivity consider the long term value, cost, Scalability and also power. NB IoT will require a SIM and might need more management strategies. Though it has wider coverage. So consider long term cost.

I will advise to use LoRa if the geolocation is limited within a certain region
