- I wanted to learn more about the Thread RF networking protocol so I designed a Thread based sensor node for home automation purposes. Part 1 goes over the hardware design
What a hidden gem of a channel!
The guy is a gem himself 😂
Love this! Can't wait for part 2, don't leave us hanging!
Excellent video! Caught your channel from the recent recommendation of your volumetric display. It's a shame you have so few videos, they're all great, really interesting, engaging, and very concise. It's a shame there aren't more channels like yours!
Never actually considered impedance controlled tracks when designing boards with USB and RF (although I really should've, poor research on my part!). Just a hobbyist, no formal education here.
Anyway, keep it up! You've earned my subscription.
Great video! Concise, knowledgeable and to the point. I look forward to seeing more!
starting to see more matter devices and wanted to create my own, thanks for the great example!
Excited for the next part!
More please! ❤
this is something i would buy!
Your videos are great! Can you do a serie for beginners? So i can learn how to start this myself
there are so many who do it better than me...
I don't know why I was recommended this channel, but I've already subbed
ALL THE SENSORS! Very cool and I want 10
lol - I'll publish everything soon :)
Neat! Loved the design considerations you explained for the various sensors.
thanks - I appreciate the feedback!
please keep making more videos 🙏🏽
12:04 i'm confused what you're doing here. The chip fits, yay?
I'm not really set up to record soldering in my cramped workspace so I was trying to simulate soldering :) The thing the board is sitting on is a little hot plate - really a game changer for soldering some of those smaller packages without exposed pins. I'll try to be more clear in the future
BROTHER!!!! I've just found your page. I LOVE YOUR 3 videos!
I would love to interview you for my podcast BEHIND THE MASK. I'd really like to see how your brain works. You are a freaking genius buddy and i'd love to shine my light on your work and passions.
I truly hope i hear back from you mate. My email is on my about page champ.

Awesome video
Cool project. Keen to see enclosure designs
The vlx does have low power modes. You could also take power away and check the distance on a schedule instead of leaving it on.
Make sure you are using the "low power" version of the st library, it takes up less space than the full api.
Subbed!
You could add ultra wideband for absolute position sensing (UWB RTLS)
UWB tags run forever off of a coin cell so it should be a good fit.
Plus you get all the other UWB stuff, gigabit bandwidth, doesn't interfere with narrowband and can't be jammed by The Enemy.
Apparently you can also get it to do Synthetic Aperture Radar.
Through Walls.
For stealth robbers i guess.
That's an interesting idea - it's been 5+ years since I last tried UWB for positioning and it wasn't great back then. I'm sure it's improved, esp. with a multi-antenna setup to give you angle of arrival. I'll investigate!

Indeed, there are multiple transceivers built into my car which it uses to get the position of my car keys, which are a third transceiver.
It uses this to discern if the keys are:
1) inside the car (don't allow keys to be locked in and activate the ignition)
2) near a car door and outside the car (activate that doors lock button)
3) near the boot (activate the boot's lock button)
So it's pretty accurate.
And never having to get my keys out of my pocket while still having tactile and location activated lock/unlock/start buttons is very cool

Also your FPGA skills are amazing, I've just started learning myself and have half an idea to retrain from software engineering (I'm bored of writing business software, it's just endless databases and web services)
I've got a small prototyping board and a cheap online course to work through, but do you know if any relevant learning resources? Where did you learn?
