I don't know what a building plant is, so I assume you really mean plan. Take a look at some of these links[^] for ideas.

Try with Google..Not expect code for your final project from here until you share something to us what you have tried..

I am currently working on a windows mobile application for Motorola MC9500 which has Windows Mobile 6.5. I have tried Symbol's EMDK library to access inbuilt motion sensor of the device without any luck.The EMDK for .NET v2.7 has Symbol.Sensor class library in it which is supposed to be...

Taken from this stack exchange answer: http://arduino.stackexchange.com/questions/4223/enable-free-fall-detection-using-arduino[^]"Sitting an accelerometer flatly on a bench will produce a value of 1G in one of the 3 axes.Free fall of an accelerometer (assuming you haven't reached...

It uses 2 sensors output(no physical sensor) for measuring mobile robot position. Also kalman filter must be used for same. It should give better position than individual sensor.

Hey,Yes, this is possible! I think that it's the best way to create a new folder (for example security) and work with multiple classes. One class for the driver/connection layer, one class that can translate this to an exisiting user (that can be founded in for example a database).I...

I have written this code to count the number of steps implementing the SensorListener class. But the problem is that onSensorChanged method is called after certain number of steps. It seems that it has to verify that these calls are as a result of walking and not phone shake. But I need to skip...

I want to use the Sensor API like Light Sensor on the Windows 10, but I've some confused about how to use that:1. The development environment is VS2015 with Win10 only?2. Can I use the MFC(C++) to use the sensor library, or it just can be used by UWP?3. If MFC can use it, how to...

For such a project you need a system that is acting as server for your data. That server must have a public address to be reached from the client (the Arduino system) and should be always online. For those reasons, other solutions often use a hosted web site. If you want to use a dedicated...

You have defined int myBPM in two places, and are printing the two different values. You print the locally defined value in the pulse function, and then the global value in the loop function.

Hi, I am working on an app, part of which has a bubble level which I have implemented with the accelerometer sensor. The problem is that there is nothing to limit it's movement, so if I tip the phone too far, the bubble disappears off the screen. The level line (on which the bubble travels...

So ... you want us to design your new hardware, packaging; do the parts selection; find IoT devices for you; and probably write the software to tie it all together. All for free, and in a tiny text box. Not going to happen. We aren't here to produce your product so you can sell it and reap the...

I'm developing an app for my tablet that is to turn on the screen when I rotate it to the vertical (the power switch is dodgy). It has an optimization to turn off the sensor from 22:00 to 06:30. The app works most of the time. However sometimes it fails. For example this morning I picked it up...

You should learn to use the debugger as soon as possible. Rather than guessing what your code is doing, It is time to see your code executing and ensuring that it does what you expect.The debugger allow you to follow the execution line by line, inspect variables and you will see that there...
