Roland Pelayo

I started TMM back in 2015. I’m a firmware and embedded systems engineer with over ten years of experience designing and developing electronic and microcontroller-based products. Over the years, I’ve worked on a wide range of projects, including medical devices, access control and security systems, automation, robotics, wireless communication modules, IoT systems, imaging and sensor instruments, and educational training tools. I’ve built systems using platforms such as PIC, AVR, ESP32, STM32, nRF52, and Raspberry Pi, and I regularly work with protocols like RS485/OSDP, CAN, TCP/IP, Wiegand, and a variety of sensor and communication interfaces. I also develop full-stack solutions for embedded projects, combining firmware, hardware, and web-based dashboards when needed. If there’s a topic you’d like me to write about, or if you need consultation or hands-on development for electronics, embedded, or firmware projects, I’m always open to working on new ideas and collaborations. You can reach me anytime through the contact page.
