Abstract: Mechanical misalignment and scaling factors lead to a mismatch between the values coming from a touchscreen panel (as translated by a touch screen controller) and the display (typically an LCD) on which the touch screenpanel is mounted. This tutorial discusses how to calibrate the touch screen panel to match the display.
DIGITAL IMAGERY is pervasive in our world today. Consequently,
standards for the efficient representation and
interchange of digital images are essential. To date, some of
the most successful still image compression standards have resulted
from the ongoing work of the Joint Photographic Experts
Group (JPEG). This group operates under the auspices of Joint
Technical Committee 1, Subcommittee 29, Working Group 1
(JTC 1/SC 29/WG 1), a collaborative effort between the International
Organization for Standardization (ISO) and International
Telecommunication Union Standardization Sector (ITUT).
Both the JPEG [1–3] and JPEG-LS [4–6] standards were
born from the work of the JPEG committee. For the last few
years, the JPEG committee has been working towards the establishment
of a new standard known as JPEG 2000 (i.e., ISO/IEC
15444). The fruits of these labors are now coming to bear, as
JPEG-2000 Part 1 (i.e., ISO/IEC 15444-1 [7]) has recently been
approved as a new international standard.
The ability to write efficient, high-speed arithmetic routines ultimately depends
upon your knowledge of the elements of arithmetic as they exist on a computer. That
conclusion and this book are the result of a long and frustrating search for
information on writing arithmetic routines for real-time embedded systems.
With instruction cycle times coming down and clock rates going up, it would
seem that speed is not a problem in writing fast routines. In addition, math
coprocessors are becoming more popular and less expensive than ever before and are
readily available. These factors make arithmetic easier and faster to use and
implement. However, for many of you the systems that you are working on do not
include the latest chips or the faster processors. Some of the most widely used
microcontrollers used today are not Digital Signal Processors (DSP), but simple
eight-bit controllers such as the Intel 8051 or 8048 microprocessors.
Software developers need to have a number of traits in order to practice their
craft well. First, they must be good analytical thinkers and problem solvers. A
developer’s primary role is to create software that solves business problems.
This requires analyzing customer needs and coming up with successful, creative
solutions.
Zaval Light-Weight Visual Components Library (LwVCL) is a pure Java alternative to humble AWT-based GUI interfaces for wide ranges of platforms, including J2SE, PersonalJava and J2ME(coming soon). LwVCL can be used on Zaurus, iPAQ and other devices.
The MEASURE program uses the analog inputs of the P89LPC935
to implement a datalogger. This example shows how you can
use signal functions in uVision to simulate a signal coming
into one of the analog inputs of the P89LPC935 controller.
