Micron Technology, Imagination Technologies, and HiAccel Lab

Hmm… The world ended in March 2020. We are all ghosts today. Or, well, were at least supposed to be, instead of the loves ones that became ghosts.

Fault Tolerance on Network-On-Chips

I spent a major part of my junior year working under Dr. Soumya J’s guidance. Her research on Network On Chips seemed fascinating to me because the potential of NoCs seemed to be a leap in the future of system organisation.

It had failed while installing openWRT.
My friend had already tried hooking up serial wires from the UART channel on the router to an Arduino Uno Board (a decent jugaad for an...

Faster ADC

Yesterday, I found myself in a situation where I had to get an Arduino Nano to write some data in an SD card as fast it could.
The aim was to pull strings on Arduino’s timings, and not the write delay on the SD card.

EasyMouse

Recently, after playing CS 1.6 (judge me all you can) for around 3 hours, I felt some discomfort in my wrist, and WebMD proudly suggested Carpal Tunnel Syndrome.
This is a common problem with people who are involved in desk-work, working with a traditionally designed mouse (correctly, a...
