When Disconnects Become the Norm Bluetooth Low Energy links don't fail in the lab—they fail in the real world. Phones roam between rooms, radios get noisy, apps are backgrounded, and peripherals reboot at the worst possible moment. After shipping connected devices at scale, I've learned

Introduction We’re building technology that helps us understand pets better - not just through visuals, but through sound. Dogs communicate through subtle cues: the rhythm of a chew, a quiet gulp, or a bark that changes tone when they’re anxious. At Hoomanely, our smart bowls and monitoring systems

Introduction In specialized fields, smarter systems are the goal. While scaling large language models (LLMs) is popular, real improvements often come from optimizing the backend. Retrieval-Augmented Generation (RAG) pipelines, particularly chunking, are crucial for performance. At Hoomanely, we faced issues with irrelevant responses due to poor chunking. Instead of using

How dual-bank architecture enables seamless, zero-downtime firmware updates via CAN Firmware updates are crucial for modern embedded systems—enabling remote device maintenance, feature additions, and security patches without physical access. This article explores a sophisticated implementation on the STM32 microcontroller, specifically the STM32H562, which features a dual-bank flash architecture that

Implement secure BLE L2CAP CoC streaming with Flutter. Learn dynamic PSM, CoC setup on iOS/Android, and high-speed data over BLE.
Hardware
In modern connected hardware — especially the kind we build at Hoomanely, where a single board includes radios, sensors, power switching, ADCs, cameras, and compute — one silent enemy keeps showing up in product timelines: Electromagnetic Interference (EMI). But here’s the twist: EMI is predictable. When we design a PCB with

That ESP32-S3 prototype working perfectly on your desk? It'll brick itself in production. Here's the brutal checklist that separates hobbyists from engineers shipping real products. The Reality Check Nobody Talks About You've built something magical. Your ESP32-S3 prototype streams 9-axis IMU data flawlessly. The
