In this class, we’ll explore how the Raspberry Pi RP2040 can detect touch inputs with the addition of a single resistor for each pin. We’ll explore the fundamentals of how capacitive touch works, and show how this can be done with the Pico using the CircuitPython programming language.

Sessions include: Keynote by David Tremper (Director, Acquisition Integration and Interoperability, Office of the Secretary of Defense), MOSA for Crewed & Uncrewed Aviation Platforms, Bringing MOSA to C5ISR and Electronic Warfare Applications, and Applying a MOSA Strategy Across Multiple Domains

Sessions include: AI/ML on the Factory Floor, Connect Your Factory for Optimum Results, Industry Panel: Introduction to the Industrial Metaverse, Metaverse & Digital Twin Infrastructure: What are the Technology Building Blocks?, and more.

In this Developing with Pi class, we'll demonstrate how to use the RP2040 chip to send commands to your computer at the touch of a button, the twist of an encoder, or via other interface hardware. We’ll first set up basic RP2040 interface functionality using the Raspberry Pi Pico on a breadboard, th...

This third class in the Developing with Pi series delves into programming the Raspberry Pi Pico W, enabling WiFi for the RP2040 chip. We'll show how to use it to generate a local web page, creating a simple wireless interface that you can use to interact with your board via a computer or other smart...

There are some technologies we just can’t seem to get away from, and that includes static analysis. As good as today’s tools are – and they are lightyears from what was available a decade ago – there is still a lot of human in the test loop. And that human costs time, money, and is prone to mistakes...

Today’s ubiquitous sensors are producing infinite amounts of data. Yesterday’s storage, access and analysis solutions are no longer enough. Military personnel require fast, direct access to all types of data to counteract adversarial threats in real-time utilizing AI applications in the field. Fo...

In this second “Developing with Pi,” class, we’ll get started programming the RP2040 microcontroller. We’ll show how to set up the Thonny IDE for programming in a Python, and how to set up the Arduino IDE for programming in C. We’ll interface with the RP2040 in both environments, doing a “hello worl...

One of the key differentiators of the Technical Standard for the Sensor Open Systems Architecture (SOSA) Reference Architecture, Edition 2.0 snapshot 1 is that it looks to adopt existing standards first in order to benefit from years of design and development experience. One such standard is OpenVPX...

It is common knowledge that the 3U OpenVPX form factor is integral to The Sensor Open Systems Architecture (SOSA) Technical Standard. It enables interoperability and commonality in military systems for radar, electronic warfare, signals intelligence, and more. What is less known is that a smaller...

Rich, colorful product displays enable access to features and functionality in a host of everyday devices. Beautiful displays are a brand-differentiator in the car, the kitchen, the laundry room, the gym and beyond. These embedded displays and touch screens inform and empower users to interact with...

To reach net-zero emissions by 2050, the aviation sector must rapidly accomplish its complete technology transformation. Moreover, this schedule tightens even more considering the radical changes in aircraft architectures and technologies required to reach commercial maturity: new fuels, fuel sys...

Quantum computing has lingered beyond the horizon for ages – but no longer. Like the rising sun on a hot summer day, quantum computing is rapidly transforming the world of cryptography. Well-tested algorithms like RSA and ECC are rendered weak and will soon be obsolete. Post-quantum cryptography pro...

Endless patching is a race that cannot be won. To build sustainable, secure IoT solutions we must change that ineffective paradigm. To appreciate what we can do differently, we should start by considering both the defender and attacker perspectives. This session will provide a unique view of that...

Keynote Address delivered by Google, covering the Matter 1.0 standard! Produced by Embedded Computing Design, the IoT Device Security Conference is a virtual conference that explores all avenues of securing your IoT-connected devices and systems using the latest techniques. The conference will fo...

There are so many electronic subsystems within the modern automobile that we’ve lost count. But the fact the every one of them needs to be locked down should not be lost. In this session, we will look at how you secure today’s and tomorrow’s automobile.

Edge-based security is critical in just about every instance, as it provides that entry point into your entire critical infrastructure. Maintaining that security well into the future can be difficult at best, when it’s hard to determine what devices will be connecting to your network tomorrow, next...

When it comes to balancing the security of your IoT devices with the need to enable your DevOps team to manage and maintain your fleet, have you ever thought about how great it would be to be able to connect to an already deployed device in the field and securely run a remote debugging session on it...

A brief foray into how attackers get root-level access, general attack flow and real world examples concluding with how we can use: defense in depth, threat models, and principles of least privilege and secure / immutable configurations to help secure our systems given an attacker has root-level exe...

IoT security has become an increasingly hot topic around the world. More attacks and more use of IoT lead to greater risk. In response, governments have enacted new regulations that impose minimum security requirements even for small IoT devices. These can be a headache for IoT system designers. For...
