Questions tagged [wireless]

Wireless refers to the technology allowing the transfer of information between two points that are not physically connected.

Wireless technologies allow the transfer of data between two points that have no physical connection, i.e. through electromagnetic waves. Traditionally, those physical connection are made in copper wires hence the term "wire-less".

Choosing wireless tech for lowest possible lag

I am drafting a pub quiz project, where the Referee gives a signal and multiple players push their buttons. The first to push wins the right to give an answer. I want all buttons (referee's + X players) to be wireless. Since the best quiz players…

Basic Serial Transmission Protocol

I have a small piece of code here that I hope to run on Arduino. Basically what this code is doing is, it takes a nibble from the user, appends a startbit to it, and transmits the code through a transmitter module. The receiver end receives the bits…

Is it possible to create an electromagnetic wave using PWM?

What would be the simplest way of making an Arduino emit EM waves using PWM (or without)? Theoretically, oscillating a current through a wire would result in an electromagnetic wave, but I don't know if this is possible using an Arduino and if so,…

How to program an nRFL01 RF module that is connected to a pc via a USB to UART/TTL adapter?

In a few of my previous questions I was told that the nRF24L01 RF Module can be connected to a pc using a USB to UART/TTL adapter. After a bit of research I understand that one way to use it is to connect it to an arduino- and then to use certain…
