A Two-Wheel Self-Balancing Robot: JBalancePI
Create a two-wheeled, self-balancing robot using Raspberry Pi 2 Model B with GPIO and I2C interfaces and Java 8 in part I of this new series by Jose Cruz. To control the robot's movement and balance, he uses three modules: a sensor that contains a three-axis gyroscope and an accelerometer, a pulse width modulation (PWM) servo driver, and a motor driver. These modules create a feedback control loop that balances the robot and automatically corrects its position.
As Cruz explains, balancing a robot is an example of the classic inverted pendulum problem, in which a large mass is placed at the end of a pole. He provides an explanation of the mathematics that make this solution possible, and then he shows how to create the necessary Java ME 8 classes for controlling the robot.

Tag Cloud in Oracle JET
Here in the Oracle JET Cookbook the Oracle JET Tag Cloud is described. Here's the JSON file that is used there, which I have put in the "public_html" folder of my project.
What we'll create is the same as in the Cookbook, except we'll parse the JSON file with "JSON.parse" and we'll use a "define" block.
Here's a 'define' block for working with the "ojtagcloud" component:
define(['text!../../socialNetworks.json', 'ojs/ojtagcloud'],
function (file) {
function mainContentViewModel() {
var self = this;
self.tags = [];
var content = JSON.parse(file);
for (var i = 0; i < content.length; i++) {
var network = content[i];
self.tags.push({
id: network["id"],
label: network["id"],
value: network["total"],
shortDesc: network["id"] + ': ' + network["total"] + '%'
});
}
}
return new mainContentViewModel();
});Then here's the view:
<p style="font-weight:bold;text-align:center;">

PCS Travel Request Management – Process Form Creation by Red Mavericks
The fourth video by Red Mavericks (http://www.redmavericks.com)
addresses the use of Oracle's Process Cloud Service to build and deploy
a full working Business Travel Request application in 40 minutes.
This
is the first of a series of 4 videos that will guide you through the
application creation process of a BPM application, using near zero code,
which makes it particularly suitable for Business Analysts to also be
engaged.
For
this part, the focus is on Process Form Design using Oracle's PCS Web
Form builder, i.e. the process diagram that will guide the application's
general behavior. The use case was made for Link Consulting's (http://www.linkconsulting.com/oracle) Process Cloud Event, held on July 2015. Watch the video here.

Timeline in Oracle JET
Let's take the "ojTimeline" component from the Oracle JET component library, as described here in the Oracle JET Cookbook, while taking note of the format of the related JSON file here. Then, downloading that file into our Oracle JET application and changing the details in the JSON file, let's recreate the NetBeans Roadmap in Oracle JET, with this result:
Here's the business logic in JavaScript, i.e., the "define" block, including a selection listener:
define(['text!../../seriesOneData.json', 'knockout', 'ojs/ojtimeline'],
function (file, ko) {
function mainContentViewModel() {
var self = this;
self.selected = ko.observable("Nothing is selected.");
var content = JSON.parse(file);
self.series = ko.observableArray(content)();
self.optionChangeListener = function (event, data) {
for (var i = 0; i < content.length; i++) {
if (content[i].id == data['value']) {
self.selected(content[i].title);
}
}
};
}
return new mainContentViewModel();
});And here's the HTML view that renders the above:
<div data-bind="ojComponent:{
component: 'ojTimeline',
majorAxis: {scale: 'years'},
minorAxis: {scale: 'quarters'},
start: new Date('Oct 1, 2013').toISOString(),
end: new Date('Oct 31, 2016').toISOString(),
optionChange: optionChangeListener,
selectionMode: 'single',
series: [{
