I did my physics master’s thesis at Uppsala University in cooperation with the Swedish Meteorological and Hydrological Institute (SMHI). In the thesis I show that neural network based post-processing of meteorological temperature forecasts is a usable method to improve forecast accuracy. The neural network based method had better performance than the contemporary error-filtering methods used…

What is a headtracker? A headtracker is exactly as the name suggests it is. It’s a device that tracks the movement of someone’s head. The headtracker can track position and orientation. They are particularly useful as devices to enhance the experience in simulators or games. For example if you are playing a flight simulator you…

ARM Cortex processors and microcontollers are ubiquitous, it’s such a successful processor architecture. It’s useful to understand how they work and how to use them as tools. When getting started with embedded development with ARM Cortex it might seem like a complex and difficult platform since a lot of the work will usually be done…

Go to web-app This is a web-app project using AES (advanced encryption standard) to send and receive encrypted messages. AES is a symmetrical encryption which means the same key is used for encryption and decryption and a personalized key can be used for sending and receiving messages. Follow the link above to go to the…

AI models are incredibly useful for making predictive models from various datasets. The models are however often criticized for being difficult to understand. AI models such as neural networks are often described as black box models. Article summary: I predict the likelihood of people making more than $50,000 per year from a US census dataset….

Analogue oscilloscopes have a beautiful fluorescent display. The oscilloscope’s electron emitter fires electrons at the fluorescent material which briefly illuminates it at a single point. By sweeping the electrons path across the fluorescent screen images can be made. The trace of electrons need to periodically pass through the parts of the screen that needs to…
