My friend at Cytron Technologies is going to launch an Arduino compatible Maker UNO board as a Kickstarter Campaign called $6 Maker UNO: Simplifying Arduino for {Education}. They send to Favoriot an early production board for review.
Previously, we had done a Complete Tutorial Video – How to Connect Cytron Uno (Arduino Uno) With Favoriot Platform.
Simple to setup and easy to use. The configuration is same as in HERE.
Documentation downloadable at HERE.
The idea behind all of this is to simplify the journey towards building your first ioT solution and also reduce the headaches of troubleshooting. We fully recommend beginners, hobbyists, university students that intend to build IoT for the Final Year projects to find a simple Maker Arduino from Cytron Technologies and also get an IoT middleware like Favoriot to push the data into the cloud for further analysis and integration.
This project presents the design of pocket-sized halal sensor used to detect lard adulteration in oil using dielectric spectroscopy method. This system will feature the application of Interdigitated Electrode (IDE) connected to Analog Devices’ AD5933 Evaluation Board to measure impedance and a mobile app that acts as the User Interface.
The whole system will be connected using Arduino, specifically Arduino Uno and an HC-06 Bluetooth module. The main motivation of the design is to provide a portable, real-time and accurate lard measurement device which is quite scarce in the market.
Besides that, this project will also focus on the performance of dielectric spectroscopy in detecting lard adulteration. Lard adulteration will be measured using the system designed and the sensor’s performance is measured via FAVORIOT IoT Platform.
Physically, the system consists of the following components:
