Jun 2013 - Mar 2018
A small class to interface with the NFC reader Module MFRC522
Role in this project:
Embedded Systems Engineer / IoT Developer
Embedded Systems Engineer / IoT DeveloperContributions:23 commits, 3 PRs, 6 pushes in 4 years 9 months
Contributions summary:Mario primarily contributed to the development of an interface for the MFRC522 NFC reader module. Their work focused on writing Python code to interact with the reader, including initialization, communication with the SPI interface, and implementing functions for card requests, anti-collision detection, and authentication. The commits introduce the core functionality to read and interact with NFC cards, providing a foundational framework for further development related to NFC applications using the MFRC522 module.

Arduino library for controlling single-wire LED pixels (NeoPixel, WS2812, etc.)
Role in this project:Embedded Systems Engineer / IoT Developer
Embedded Systems Engineer / IoT DeveloperContributions:11 commits, 1 PR, 4 comments in 9 days
Contributions summary:Mario primarily contributed to adding support for the Sparkfun nRF52832 breakout board, integrating it with the existing NeoPixel library. This involved modifying the core `Adafruit_NeoPixel.cpp` file to include nRF52-specific code, including timing adjustments and interrupt handling. Further work involved testing and implementing support for EasyDMA on the nRF52 platform.
