Microcontrollers in Music HCI Instruction - Reflections on our Switch to the Atmel AVR Platform
نویسندگان
چکیده
Over the past year the instructors of the Human Computer Interaction courses at CCRMA have undertaken a technology shift to a much more powerful teaching platform. We describe the technical features of the new Atmel AVR based platform, contrasting it with the Parallax BASIC Stamp platform used in the past. The successes and failures of the new platform are considered, and some student project success stories described.

The AVR Microcontroller and C Compiler Co-Design
High Level Languages (HLLs) are rapidly becoming the standard methodology for embedded microcontrollers due to improved time-to-market and simplified maintenance support. In order to ensure that the new ATMEL AVR family of microcontrollers was well suited as a target for C compiler, the external C compiler development was started before the AVR architecture and instruction set were completed. D...

A new family of Atmel AVR low-power 32-bit microcontrollers provides higher processing performance, improved accuracy, and more power efficiency for automotive applications. These enhancements enable implementation of new product-differentiating features such as advanced control algorithms, voice control, and capacitive touch sensing (see figure 1). The Atmel AVR UC3C 32-bit microcontroller inc...
متن کاملAVR Processors as a Platform for Language-Based Security
AVR processors are widely used in embedded devices. Hence, it is crucial for the security of such devices that cryptography on AVR processors is implemented securely. Timing-side-channel vulnerabilities and other possibilities for information leakage pose serious dangers to the security of cryptographic implementations. In this article, we propose a framework for verifying that AVR assembly pro...

متن کاملResource-efficient cryptography for ubiquitous computing
Technological advancements in the semiconductor industry over the last few decades made the mass production of very small-scale computing devices possible. Thanks to the compactness and mobility of these devices, they can be deployed “pervasively”, in other words, everywhere and anywhere – such as in smart homes, logistics, e-commerce, and medical technology. Embedding the small-scale devices i...
