Developing an Affordable and Portable Control Systems Laboratory Kit with a Raspberry Pi

Instructional laboratories are common in engineering programs. Instructional laboratories should evolve with technology and support the changes in higher education, like the increased popularity of online courses. In this study, an affordable and portable laboratory kit was designed to replace the expensive on-campus equipment for two control systems courses. The complete kit costs under $135 a...

Reconfigurable Image Processor using an Fpga-Raspberry Pi Interface

Image processing (I.P.) systems, involving multiple processing functionalities, use standard software tools to manipulate pixel values. The load on the system is high when these software tools are used for real time I.P. applications as the system they are running on are systems that are not specific to a particular application. This would require either high end hardware systems or an applicat...

Easy as Pi: A Network Coding Raspberry Pi Testbed

In the near future, upcoming communications and storage networks are expected to tolerate major difficulties produced by huge amounts of data being generated from the Internet of Things (IoT). For these types of networks, strategies and mechanisms based on network coding have appeared as an alternative to overcome these difficulties in a holistic manner, e.g., without sacrificing the benefit of...
