Microcontroller Based Neural Network Controlled Low Cost Autonomous Vehicle


In this paper, design of a low cost autonomous vehicle based on neural network for navigation in unknown environments is presented. The vehicle is equipped with four ultrasonic sensors for hurdle distance measurement, a wheel encoder for measuring distance traveled, a compass for heading information, a GPS receiver for goal position information, a GSM modem for changing destination place on run time and a nonvolatile RAM for storing waypoint data; all interfaced to a low cost PIC  microcontroller. The microcontroller processes the information acquired from the sensors and generates robot motion commands accordingly through neural network. The neural network running inside the microcontroller is a multilayer
feed-forward network with back-propagation training algorithm. The network is trained offline with tangent-sigmoid as activation function for neurons and is implemented in real time with piecewise linear approximation of tangent-sigmoid function. Results have shown that upto twenty neurons can be implemented in hidden layer with this technique. The vehicle is tested with varying destination places in outdoor environments containing stationary as well as moving obstacles and is found to reach the set targets successfully.

Design and Built of on - Load Fully Electronic Tap-Changer with Triac Switch: Simulation and Practical Results


This paper, introduces a new solid-state on – load Tap-changer that has four steps. One of the main requirements of any electrical system is that it should provide a voltage to the consumer which remains within closely defined limits regardless of the loading on the system. Industrial equipment such as speed drives, electronic and control systems are sensitive to voltage variation and affected by bad power quality and poor power factor. Voltage dips can cause shutdown of plants or result in damage of devices. By using of electronic tap-changer, most of the voltage dips can be avoided and lead to good power quality and thus, result in good operation of equipment. The prototype was built with triac switches as the switching devices
and A VR microcontroller as the control circuit. In this work a fully electronic tap changer with four taps for 2 KV A, 220/1200V single phase transformer is designed and built. Also some of problems that caused to limitation of electronic tap changer application at high power and voltage system and technical solution
ways for theses problems are described. The discrete cycle modulation (DCM) has been used in this tap changer.

Adding New Functions to the Remote Airfield Lighting System


There are many remote airfields that are not connected to the power grid. Providing adequate lighting to these airfields is necessary and challenging. The Federal Aviation Administration (FAA) has sponsored a research project, RemoteAirfield Lighting Systems (RALS), through the Center for General Aviation  Research (CGAR). The findings from the RALS research specified a light that had low power needs and a color/intensity to meet the requirements for airfield identification and landing. To make these lights more appropriate to wide spread applications, the research team is conducting an exemplary operational test. In this paper, we discuss the new functions added to these lights for the operational test, including both automatically/remotely switching on/off the lights and smart charging of the batteries using solar panels under the control of a microcontroller. In addition, we consider future new functions such as low cost pilot controlled lighting as well as wireless networking for health monitoring and controlling of the lighting system. These new functions can greatly improve the convenience of the usage of RALS while vkeeping the same low cost.

Combined Scheduling of Ultrasound And GPS Signals in A Wearable ZigBee-Based Guidance System for The Blind

We have designed and implemented a wearable ZigBee-based guidance system in which a main controller collects ultrasound and GPS signals from sensors attached to subcontrollers and provides appropriate directions to a blind person. The signals from the different sources need to be handled separately, which reduces the effective sampling rate, and may impact the quality of the guidance provided. To address this, we propose a new scheduling scheme that interleaves the two signals without collision, based on the on-line estimation of signal handling times. Experimental results show that this scheme increases a sampling rate by up to 71% compared with the simple scheme1.

Embedded System Based Implementation of Drip Irrigation

        Environment friendly approach is the need of the hour for modern agricultural industries. This green house technology controls the humidity as well as the temperature of the plants.
        This project IEEE Project on Embedded System Based Implementation of Drip Irrigation for the first perhaps designs a microcontroller based system which will control physical parameters as well as maintain records for future references.
       In an arid country like India, farmers continue to follow primitive methods of irrigation resulting in inadequate use of water. Thus irrigation can be done properly with minimal wastage of water by using automatic microcontroller type of drip irrigation system which irrigates the agricultural fields only when there is an extreme need of water
       The IEEE Based Electronics Student project comprises of moisture and temperature sensors and every part of the field houses these. These sensors are buried at a specific depth. Once the optimum moisture level in the soil is reached these signal to the microcontroller. Before it reaches the microcontroller, it is amplified and converted to the digital form by A/D converter and transmitted to the microcontroller which controls the valves
      An LCD module is used to observe the current readings of sensors as well as status of other readings. A chemical unit is also provided to supply fertilizers, pesticides and nutrients too. To compute the total quantity of water consumed, a flow meter is also attached. The readings obtained can be forwarded to centralized computer for further analysis.
     Thus this project provides an efficient system coupled with feedback to monitor and also control all activities associated with drip irrigation system. This project can be implemented for large scale farms with optimum expenditure. This not only save manpower and water but also brings in profit in the long term. Problems like soil erosion and nutrient leaching can be avoided too.

GSM Based System Design for Industrial Automation

    In this project GSM Based System Design for Industrial Automation ECE Project Paper, use of GSM and GPS technology is used where automation of systems is enabled and this can be used to pin-point the exact location of the people, vehicles etc. sensors are fitted into homes so that if any thief enters, the sensor will convey the information through an SMS alerting the police.

    Around us there is a marked increase in the number of robberies. The police is unable to ascertain the when the theft takes place and point out with exact precision as to where it’s actually occurring. Often the police reach the location after the theft is committed. Alarm systems and home security systems are featured everyday in the market to prevent such thefts.
    The project GSM based system design for industrial automation makes use of microcontrollers, sensors, relays, display unit and memory device inbuilt. To secure any device, the user has to send SMS for activating it and setting a password too. Once the microcontroller receives the SMS it compares it with the password stored in the database. If it matched, the action is performed.
     Since every device is password controlled only the person aware of the password can control the device. Sensors that are used are PIR sensors, smoke sensors etc. if there is a forced entry the sensor will intimate it to the microcontroller and the microcontroller will further determine from where the threat is there.
    GSM is one of the upcoming technologies and is used in this project too. It possesses a smart modem which easily combines with embedded systems methodology. Once this system is implemented using GSM, remote access is obtained. This project can be applied to homes as well as offices. Furthermore this project can be extended to incorporate a video camera to keep an eye inside the house

        This Digital Parking System ECE Project Download aim is to design a three tier parking system. This project shows how to keep a track of how cars are parked. The lowest tier parks cars for short interval of time. The middle tier contains cars that remain for 1-3 hours. The upper tier parks those cars which remain for three hours.
         
         This is a technology that takes the picture of the approaching car present at the main gate. The system assigns a password to the car user who is visiting for the first time. The user enters the password and the system checks the space for the parking in the parking area. If space is available then the electronic main gate open and user will get access to park the car inside. If no space is available then main gate will not open. In this case, the system checks the car parked which is present for the longest interval and notifies its user to remove the car park parked in the upper tier.

         The project concludes on to develop a technology of advanced parking system that will implement many innovations. This technology allows maximizing of parking capabilities, intimates drivers, and prevents unauthorized vehicles. The unauthorized vehicles get tracked by a camera that records license plates of the corresponding vehicles and the images will be transferred to a recording device.

Power Limiter


      Electricity is one of the major sources of power in this world, but along with its utilization, a major portion of it is wastage and stealing. Electricity board is facing a lot of problem in conservation of electric power. We realized the problem and work over it. From this we got the inspiration to design a POWER LIMITER.    
         Earlier we were using fuse for protection from over- load, fuse is a device, which operates on overload (current). If the excessive current flows through the circuit then the fuse wire melts and it is to be replaced after every operation rating of fuse wire used. To overcome the drawback of fuse, Circuit Breakers are used to break the circuit. . These are used in power grids substations and now a days miniature circuit breakers are used for domestic purpose. During overload it breaks the circuit by separating the moving contact. This moving contact is to be settled manually.
      Circuit beakers are very common device being used by electrical persons for switching ON/OFF the electrical loads. But the load switching is required automatically day or night, switching is required with respect to time period, switching is required with respect to applied load and all this continuously and automatically. An attempt is made to design such system, which would do above switching automatically. Such system would eliminate fuse links operators job to switch the load to ON/OFF at different time intervals etc hence we are designing a system which can perform all above mentioned jobs automatically and called as POWER LIMITER.

Monitoring and Reporting of Traffic Rules Violation Using Microcontroller through Wireless Communication System

      A system for monitoring and reporting incidences of red light violations at the traffic intersection is presented in this paper. A model of the proposed system has been built and verified experimentally. The system comprises an infrared (IR) transmitter and a receiver unit for detection of red light violation, whereas for identifying the vehicle breaking the law, microcontroller triggered wireless mobile communication network is used. The microcontroller is programmed automatically send a message containing the car license no, date and time of breaking the rule to the numbers of traffic control units stored previously to the cell phone directory. Upon detection of the offender, the corresponding action can be performed by the traffic monitoring system. The proposed system is simple, cheap, reliable, and exempted from the effects of bad weather conditions, improper lightings, etc. and thus more suitable for the detection of a violating vehicle.


Red Light Violation Detection Using RFID

    Traffic lights play an imperative role in traffic management. Traffic lights play an important role in the traffic management. Existing Automatic Traffic Light Violation Detection System is based on the camera’s to detect the violator. This system has a number of limitations like blurry image due to motion , poor image resolution because the number plate is far away, poor lightening, different fonts . The proposed system improves the accuracy of Automatic Traffic Light Violation Detection system as well as helps to trace out the stolen vehicles using RFID.


PC Controlled Robot Using Zigbee Wireless Communication

       The Xbee/Xbee-PRO RF Modules are designed to operate within the ZigBee protocol and support the unique needs of low-cost, low-power wireless sensor networks. The modules require minimal power and provide reliable delivery of data between remote devices. The modules operate within the ISM 2.4 GHz frequency band Zigbee is a worldwide open standard for wireless radio networks in the monitoring and control fields. The standard was developed by the ZigBee Alliance (an association of international companies) to meet the following principal needs
  • low cost
  • ultra-low power consumption
  • use of unlicensed radio bands
  • cheap and easy installation
  • flexible and extendable networks
  • integrated intelligence for network set-up and message routing
             To control the direction of the robot we are using Xbee modules one as transmitter and the other as receiver. The transmitter is fixed to PC and the receiver is fixed to the robot on the other end. We send signals from PC through the Xbee (transmitter) to the receiver which is in built to the robot.
We can use this process to visually control the robot direction even though we are far away by connecting a camera in front of the robot.
