FontAwesome icons in Android's MapFragment. February 4, 2015. I spent some time trying to customize MapMarkers in Google Maps Android SDK, I hope this guide is useful if you're trying to integrate FontAwesome's icons. In your app's map layout. Android Iconfiy. Is a great library that provides FontAwesome icons in Android, so we'll use that as our source of icons. Google Map's custom markers needs a. We can generate the. This generate a stroked icon:. This gives us a filled icon:. June 23, 2014. When the ...

Reliability and magnetic sensors. June 15, 2014. Suffered an outage of about 3 days without tweeting. There were two reasons for this which I'll explain in the following lines. Don't forget to add a reboot strategy for your embedded system. In the first days of RunHedgie's rollout I'd come back from the office, connect via SSH to the Raspberry Pi that receives the packets from the wireless node which senses the wheel counts, change a few stuff and re-run the program that manages it all. That's an image o...

Database backups in S3
http://www.honorato.org/database-backups-in-s3
Database backups in S3. June 27, 2014. While I work on a Go backend for RunHedgie. I'm still hosting the database locally on a Raspberry Pi. That requires me to be at the office to play with the data, which is sub-optimal. So I'd like to make a database backup each day and upload it to AWS's S3 storage service. That way I can download a copy of the data and use it in my computer whenever I want, not depending from an external CPU or server. To make a DB dump with PostgreSQL we'll need. And put it in the.

Comparison between Raspberry Pi, BeagleBone Black, Arduino, and Intel Galileo
http://www.honorato.org/comparison-between-raspberry-pi-beaglebone-black-arduino-and-intel-galileo
Comparison between Raspberry Pi, BeagleBone Black, Arduino, and Intel Galileo. August 10, 2014. I've been teaching an embedded systems course in PUC's CS department. For a while, where we use the msp430f5529 experimenter board. It really serves the purpose of learning the bare bones of embedded systems, but unfortunately they tend to be unreliable and sometimes it gets to EE-oriented. And they kindly donated 20 boards we'll use this semester. So here's a picture of 4 popular embedded boards: Raspberry Pi.

Formula evaluation with python
http://www.honorato.org/formula-evaluation-with-python
Formula evaluation with python. June 3, 2014. I've been working on an Internet of Things platform with some principles in mind:. Simple (i.e. 'dumb') devices. Powerful processing in the backend. Flexibility in value calculation. To achieve the first goal, the physical devices (nodes, sensors, whatever you call them) will be uploading an array of values which will have to be processed by a server. Temp celcius = (temp read - 5500) / 100. Higher part of counter (16-bit). Lower part of counter (16-bit).

May 31, 2014. I've been working on RunHedgie. For a while. It's an automated tweeting treadmill for my wife's African Pigmy Hedgehog. Called Antu. Every morning he'll tweet how much he ran, just like RunKeeper :). Antu is quite shy, just as a normal hedgie. To feel that he interacts a little more I connected a wireless node with a magnetic switch so I could count how many laps he runs every night, and therefore the equivalent distance. Here's an image of the treadmill:. Here's a picture of the node:.
