Learn Apple Watch Programming Quickly by Examples - My January Challenge

By
Apple Watch is soon to release, and being a huge Apple Evangelist, I've been very eager to explore the possibilities of what one can make with these 'Most personal device ever made by Apple'. My hopes are high. I'm in a constant mission to excavate this area at the earliest. And guess what, me and my friends have been working on a couple of interesting 'Apple Watch' things lately:

1. Creating a course - 'Learn Apple Watch Programming Quickly By Examples'
2. Creating a website for Apple WatchKit Tutorials

Both are in beta and will be public soon. I'm trying to get the latest releases of the WatchKit sdk (which is bundled in Xcode 6.2 beta and higher and is required to build Watch Apps) and trying to publish tutorials on new APIs as and when they come.

Following are my objectives with both these online ventures


  • Teach things more by examples and less by theory
  • Convey ideas at the simplest form possible
  • Keep user-interaction at the heart of all materials
  • Make the examples in a way encouraging the user to replicate the same
  • Provide quick support in the discussion forum of the course 


Let me know the feedback/ideas , and yes watch out this space for more details coming soon.

P.S. : If you'd like to get a free coupon for my course, please leave a comment with your email address below.

Building Autonomous Drone with Raspberry Pi and APM 2.8

By
I am a total newbie to hardware and was pushing my limits to see how far I can reach on with hardware projects (which sparked my interest lately). I have set out on a very ambitions mission  to control a drone from raspberry pi .I began the research for this around 2 months ago and had brought a raspberry pi, drone body kit and apm flight controller. The key difference of this project from common drone projects is that I'm trying to avoid the use of and RC and instead use the raspberry pi to control it.  Hardware Ins tallation Setup: I am using APM 2.8 and Mission Planner. I am using RPi 3 to control the APM 2.8 via Telem port of APM I am planning to power the apm via the battery to ESC (Electronic Speed Controllers) Now, documenting my steps below: Day 1 Watch Tutorial To get started with APM flight controller, I watched this video tutorial [1] which gives a gentle introduction about APM board.  Setup APM board and Calibrate Sensors I downloade...

Adafruit GFX - How to change line spacing in text?

By
  You may want to update the line spacing to be a little lower than default due to small screen size on IoT devices. I faced this challenge while working on a Watchy hobby project. You may have used a font generator or just using the default fonts and got a *.h file that has the details of the font. In that case just change the last integer value in the PROGMEM variable.

Warning: These are my messy study notes, much better legible notes can be found here  http://onepager.togaware.com 1. A Tour Thru Rattle Transform Tab ( by no means near to the full power of underlying R) Data Mining Tabs - Cluster, Associate Model Log Tab  - Capture the corresponding R command Working from Left to Right on Tabs  Remember to Click Execute Button 'Save' -> Projects save the current state, all models etc. 'Open' Projects can be restored at a later time You can even load it back to R  2. First R Program Load rattle and ggplot2 library(rattle)  # Provides the weather dataset  library(rattle)  # Provides the ggplot() function ggplot -> Grammar of Graphics : Just like english grammar or grammar of a computer language. A result of Hadley's Phd . Look him up to learn more details. Then produce a plot using ggplot() # handsondatascience.com - tips on elegantly writing repeated code ds ...
