The monthly meeting of the Triangle Embedded Interest Group will be Monday the 9th starting at 7pm in room 1005 of NCSU Engineering Building One, 911 Partners Way, Raleigh. This will be the bldg and room through May.
There is no set program for this meeting yet. Bring your projects, short show and tells, questions and project challenges to share.
Paul MacDougal will talk about alternatives to the classic Arduino beginning program and shares this summary:
“Blink is a great first example for Arduino programming, but a really bad example of embedded programming. With 99.9{13079d06258ef9010cea88dee32f3cdfc6f216a54651010f7303ce6140ee927c} of its time spent in delay(), nothing else can happen. This talk will show how to rewrite blink in several different ways to allow it to play nicely with other functions.”
Join Paul and others at NCSU for the regular meeting. More details on the “at NCSU” meeting page.
This month’s meeting will feature a talk by Alex Davis about his remote monitoring system via inexpensive radio and free cloud computing.

If time allows Pete Soper will describe the consequences of an impulse DMM buy when he temporarily broke his good meter.
Folks familiar with the OSH Park web site for ordering PCBs may not be aware of their blog site with virtual tons of user project information. Enjoy!
Traffic Intersection Lights
August’s meeting included a project retrospective and demo of Brian Grawburg’s Raspberry Pi/Python driven traffic light simulation. This is part of a set of teaching tools Brian has developed for teaching Python to area youths at the Imagination Station in Wilson, NC Brian’s project is described in his article in the December, 2014 MagPi magazine (page 4) as well as on his project page.
