Introduction Objective The goal of this project is to design a useful and fully functional real-world product that efficiently translates the movement of the fingers into the American Sign Language. Background The American Sign Language (ASL) is a visual language based on hand gestures. It has been well-developed by the deaf community over the past …
SensCap is a device that guides the visually impaired around obstacles. Introduction We designed and built a device to be worn on the head and around the hip to aid the visually impaired maneuver around obstacles. It provides information about obstacles near and around the head. When used with a cane, the user will have …
A photocell or photo resistor is a Light Dependent Resistors (LDR). LDR’s are sensors that detect light. They are small, inexpensive, low-power, easy to use and don’t wear out. Overview A photocell or photo resistor is a Light Dependent Resistors (LDR). LDR’s are sensors that detect light. They are small, inexpensive, low-power, easy to use …
Biometrics is the emerging technology used for identification. Biometric refers to automatic identification of a person based on biological characters such as finger print, iris, facial recognition, etc. In this article finger print based attendance system is proposed. Attendance in educational institutions, industries will require more paper work and time. To reduce this, automatic attendance …

As the non renewable energy resources are decreasing, use of renewable resources for producing electricity is increasing. Solar panels are becoming more popular day by day. We have already read a post about how to install solar panel for home. Solar panel absorbs the energy from the Sun and is stored in the battery. This energy …
Street lights are switched on depending on the intensity of the Sun light on LDR. If the intensity of Sunlight on light dependent resistor is low, its resistance value is high. This value increases and becomes high when it is completely in dark. This resistance value decides when the street lights are required to switch …

treet lights are controlled manually in olden days. These days automation of street lights has emerged. But one can observe that there is no need of high intensity in peak hours i.e. when there is no traffic and even in early mornings. By reducing the intensity in these times, energy can be saved to some …

Attendance in colleges is generally paper based which may sometimes cause errors. Taking attendance manually consumes more time. So the proposed attendance system uses RFID technology to take attendance. In this system, each student is issued an RFID tag. Controlling unit is in the institute. Whenever the card is placed near the reader, it will …

In this project we are going to make a vibration alert system with ATMEGA8 microcontroller. This can also be used as a theft alert system, for that we are going to interface tilt sensor with ATMEGA8. A tilt sensor is shown in below figure. We can see there is a cylinder in the picture, in that cylinder there will be …

In this tutorial we are going to interface FLEX sensor with ATMEGA8 microcontroller. In ATMEGA8, we are going use 10bit ADC (Analog to Digital Conversion) feature to do this job. Now the ADC in ATMEGA cannot take a input more than +5V. What is a Flex Sensor? A FLEX sensor is a transducer which changes its resistance when its shape …
