MediaTek MT8168 Custom Android ROM Installation & Technical Support I’m looking for an experienced Android/MediaTek developer who can provide step-by-step technical guidance for installing or porting a fully functional custom Android ROM to a MediaTek MT8168-based tablet. The tablet currently has a restricted Android installation, and my goal is to replace it with a clean, stable, fully functional Android version that is properly configured for the device hardware. I am currently working with the tablet in its original, unrooted Android state. I do not have root access at this time, so I will need guidance on the appropriate process for gaining the necessary access and preparing the device for the ROM installation. If I need a rooted state or a Linux environment, that can be ...
I need a compact, production-ready PCB that brings together an ARM Cortex MCU with a temperature sensor, 3-axis accelerometer, optical heart-rate monitor, microphone, speaker and on-board flash. The board must seamlessly switch between battery operation and USB power, with integrated charging and safe power-path management so firmware updates and debugging over USB remain possible even while the battery tops up. Please handle the complete hardware flow: • Schematic capture • PCB layout with good analog isolation for the heart-rate front end • Clean breakout for the mic and speaker audio paths • EMI-conscious routing for the high-speed flash bus • Gerber files, drill data, pick-and-place and a curated BOM from mainstream suppliers I will review the design...
I want to automate the filling of an overhead storage tank with a compact microcontroller-based solution. The unit should sense the water level in the tank, trigger the pump when the level drops below a defined threshold, and shut the pump off once the tank is full. I am using a standard overhead tank fed by a single pump from ground level. You’re free to recommend the most reliable sensing method—, or conductive—so long as it performs accurately in typical domestic water conditions and can be serviced easily if something fails. The design must include: • A microcontroller (Arduino, ESP32, or comparable) with clearly commented firmware. • A driver stage capable of switching a 1 HP single-phase pump safely. • Manual override for both pump ON and OFF. ...
I am building a compact embedded solution whose main role is to act as a communication system for live environmental monitoring. The unit must read temperature, humidity, air-quality indices, and soil-moisture levels, then push those readings reliably to a remote endpoint in real time. Here is what I need from you: • Hardware design: sensor selection, schematic, and PCB layout sized for low-power field deployment. • Firmware: driver code for the temperature & humidity, air-quality, and soil-moisture sensors, along with a lightweight stack that formats the data and handles wireless transmission. I have no fixed protocol in mind, so you may propose BLE, LoRa, Wi-Fi, or another option that balances range and power. • Data communication workflow: sample rate configura...
I’m building a small embedded prototype that can recognise a road accident the instant it happens, trigger a buzzer on-board and then text the vehicle’s GPS coordinates to a presaved emergency contact. An accelerometer will be the sole crash-detection sensor, so the firmware has to watch for abnormal spikes on that device, classify them reliably as a collision rather than rough driving, and fire the alert routine. Here is the workflow I have in mind: the microcontroller samples the accelerometer, confirms the threshold breach, sounds the buzzer for nearby help, fetches latitude and longitude from an attached GPS module and immediately sends an SMS through a GSM or LTE-M modem. If the cellular network is down, the code should queue and retry until a signal is regained. What I ...

I need a compact laser-based perimeter protection system for a commercial site that immediately calls a predefined phone number whenever the beam is interrupted. The solution must combine reliable laser detection hardware with a GSM module (SIM800, SIM900 or similar) and the embedded code to place that outbound call within seconds of a breach. The finished unit should be self-contained, run from standard low-voltage DC, and include clear wiring diagrams and firmware source so I can duplicate or service it later. If you can integrate basic tamper detection, weather-proof housings, or an optional battery backup, mention that in your proposal—those extras would be a plus but are not mandatory. To accept the work I will power up the prototype on-site, break the beam and confirm that my...

I have an STM32F407VET board that will drive a completely stand-alone single-axis solar tracker. The controller must perform three key jobs: • Automatic sun tracking – use only a gyroscope/accelerometer (no light or temperature sensors) to predict the sun vector and move two actuators so the panel stays aligned all day. • Manual control override – via push buttons or simple UART commands I can pause the algorithm and jog each axis, then resume tracking instantly. • Data logging and monitoring – record attitude, motor commands, and health metrics to a micro-SD card while simultaneously streaming the same data over UART for live viewing. I expect clean, non-blocking C firmware that compiles in STM32CubeIDE for the F407VET. HAL drivers are fine; FreeRTOS...

I need a compact controller board built around the STM32F103CBT6 in the 48-pin LQFP package (or a pin-compatible alternative with the same Cortex-M3 core). The board must expose three independent serial channels: • RS-485 • RS-232 • A UART linked to an on-board serial-to-TCP module that speaks plain TCP/IP Reliability is critical. Please integrate proven over-voltage, short-circuit and over-current protection on all power inputs as well as the three interface blocks. If you are more comfortable substituting a different F1-series part with identical footprints, that’s fine as long as the firmware and pinout remain drop-in compatible. Deliverables • Complete schematic (Altium, KiCad or EasyEDA) • Four/two -layer PCB layout with proper isolation be...
I’m building a high-speed communication interface on an STM32-based board and need production-ready firmware written in C/C++. The microcontroller is an ARM Cortex-M series device, and the single most important goal is to move packets through the interface as quickly and reliably as possible—latency can be modest as long as overall data throughput remains very high. You will design and code the full communication stack, configure the peripheral clocks, DMA, interrupts, and buffering strategy, then expose a clean API that my application layer can call from RTOS or bare-metal. Low-level register work is fine, but you’re equally welcome to leverage STM32 HAL/LL or CubeMX if that accelerates development; the final code must compile under STM32CubeIDE or GCC-based Makefiles...

I need a complete IoT gateway hub that brings LTE (4G), Wi-Fi, Bluetooth, Zigbee and sub-GHz RF into a single, reliable unit for remote monitoring and alerting of smart-home devices. The goal is straightforward: gather data from a variety of in-home sensors and actuators, push it to the cloud over cellular when Wi-Fi is unavailable, and relay actionable alerts back to the user in real time. Here is what I expect: • Hardware design that accommodates the five radios with proper coexistence planning, power management and antenna layout. • Embedded firmware that can automatically select the best back-haul (LTE or Wi-Fi), maintain secure connections and expose a clean API or MQTT/HTTP interface for the smart-home layer. Also with bluetooth, zigbee and rf. • Delive...

I’m looking for an embedded-systems engineer who can take ArduPilot’s AP_Periph codebase and turn it into a robust CAN-bus battery monitor. The unit will sit on a DroneCAN network and stream full MAVLink telemetry, so it can slot straight into my existing ground-station setup without any extra protocol bridges. Integration with other telemetry options such as or SmartPort isn’t needed right now. Key functions I must see on the bus: • High-accuracy individual cell voltage for every cell in the pack (not just pack voltage) • Hall-effect current sensing that stays linear and low-loss all the way to 400 A • Standard AP_Periph health, identification and parameter handling so the flight controller recognises the device instantly Deliverables 1. Schemat...
Our sports venue runs on an ageing electronic scoreboard built around seven-segment LED and P10 LED panels. It still works, but erratically, and it can only be operated from the hard-wired control box bolted under the grandstand. I need the whole system modernised so I can walk onto the field with a phone or tablet and run the show from there. Scope of work • Inspect every board, power rail and driver on the existing hardware, replace any damaged or obsolete parts, and leave the display fully refurbished. • Design and build a new controller unit that adds rock-solid wireless connectivity plus a battery-backup circuit so a brief power loss never blanks the screen. • Write clean firmware for that controller, making sure it can address both the seven-segment digits and t...
I need production-ready firmware for a Renesas MCU that will exchange data through a Quectel EC200 cellular module using both IEC 60870-5-104 and plain TCP/IP protocols. The code must handle complete data transmission, reception, and on-board processing so the MCU can act as an intelligent field unit that talks reliably to a SCADA master as well as to standard IP services. Scope • Build or integrate a lightweight IEC104 stack alongside a TCP socket layer that can coexist without blocking. • Manage all EC200 interactions (AT commands, connection setup, keep-alive, error recovery) over UART/SPI as appropriate. • Implement configurable buffers, parsing, and frame validation so that raw sensor payloads can be wrapped/unwrapped for each protocol. • Provide hooks whe...
