802.11ax is the next fast-approaching Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers (IEEE) standard that addresses today's biggest Wi-Fi challenges: high density and performance. It addresses those challenges by increasing capacity by up to four times and improving spectral efficiency to benefit both 2.4 gigahertz (GHz) and 5 GHz bands in a var

Fully updated for Raspberry Pi Pico 2 and 2 W, this book gets you started with Raspberry Pi Pico - whether you're using Raspberry Pi Pico for a home project, industrial automation, or learning (or teaching!) electronics and programming. Microcontrollers, like the RP2350 chip at the heart of Raspberry Pi Pico 2, are computers stripped back to their

The Raspberry Pi is loved the world over by educators and makers thanks to it's tiny size and endless possibilities. We've managed to stuff the fourth edition of the official Raspberry Pi Projects book with another 200 pages of inspiring projects, practical tutorials, and definitive reviews so you can find out why people like it so much. - Get invo

The author notes that in 2019, Wi-Fi technology celebrated its 20th birthday, and it is hard to believe it has been around for 22 years. The text explains that beginning in 2021, Wi-Fi is making a massive leap into the 6 GHz frequency band. The book describes how previous generations of Wi-Fi focused on increasing data rates and speed, while Wi-Fi

The proliferation of multicore processors in the embedded market for Internet-of-Things (IoT) and Cyber-Physical Systems (CPS) makes developing real-time embedded applications increasingly difficult. What is the underlying theory that makes multicore real-time possible? How does theory influence application design? When is a real-time operating sys

Artificial intelligence (AI) robots can learn from their experiences, make decisions in real time, understand natural language and human gestures, and utilize computer vision to perceive and comprehend their environments. Beginning with the rudimentary concepts of AI, AI Robotics: Ethics, Algorithms, and Technology of Artificial Intelligence-Powere

This open access book discusses "slow electronics", the study of devices processing signals with low frequencies. Computers have the remarkable ability to process data at high speeds, but they encounter difficulties when handling signals with low frequencies of less than ~100Hz. They unexpectedly require a substantial amount of energy. This poses a

Unmanned Aircraft Systems are an integral part of the US national critical infrastructure. The authors have endeavored to bring a breadth and quality of information to the reader that is unparalleled in the unclassified sphere. This open book will fully immerse and engage the reader / student in the cyber-security considerations of this rapidly eme

KiCad is an amazing piece of free and open-source software that allows anyone, with some time and effort, to make high-quality PCB designs. Couple this amazing software with numerous PCB fabrication companies and even PCBA services (companies that will make and assemble your PCB designs) and there's never been a better time to get into this aspect

The chapters in this open access book arise out of the EU Cost Action project Cryptacus, the objective of which was to improve and adapt existent cryptanalysis methodologies and tools to the ubiquitous computing framework. The cryptanalysis implemented lies along four axes: cryptographic models, cryptanalysis of building blocks, hardware and softwa
