Topic: Wall-FollowingControl of a Hexapod Robot Using a Data-Driven Fuzzy Controller Learned
Through Differential Evolution
Abstract:This paperproposes the use of evolutionary fuzzycontrol for a wall-following hexapod robot. The
data driven fuzzy controller (FC) is learned through an adaptive group-based differential evolution (AGDE)
algorithm, which avoids the explicit usage of the robot mathematical model andtime-consuming manual design
effort.In the wall following task, the inputs of the FC are measurements of three infrared distance sensors
mountedon thehexapodrobot. TheFC controls the swingangle changes ofthe left-andright-middle legs of the
hexapodrobot forproper turningperformance while simultaneously movingforward. To automatethe design of
the FC andto improve the performanceof control,an AGDE algorithm is proposed. In the AGDE-designed FC,
a cost function is definedtoquantitatively evaluate the learningperformance of an FC based on data generated
online. In the AGDE, thesolutionvectors in a population are adaptivelyclusteredinto different groups based on
their performances at each iteration. To improve optimization performance, the AGDE adaptively selects
components fromeither the group-based mutant vector or a typical population-based mutant vector in the
mutationoperation. Simulatedandexperimental results are gatheredto verify theeffectiveness andefficiency of
the data-driven AGDE-based learning approach.

Topic: A Sensor-Based Dual-Arm Tele-Robotic System
Abstract:We present a novel systemtoachieve coordinatedtask-basedcontrol on a dual-arm industrial robot
for the general tasks of visual servoing and bimanual hybrid motion/force control. The industrial robot,
consistingof a rotatingtorsoandtwo seven degree-of-freedomarms, performs autonomous vision-based target
alignment ofbotharms with the aid of fiducial markers, two-handed grasping and force control, and robust
object manipulationin a tele-robotic framework. The operator uses hand motions to command the desired
positionfor the object via Microsoft Kinect while the autonomous force controller maintains a stable grasp.
Gestures detected by the Kinect are also used to dictate different operation modes. We demonstrate the
effectiveness of our approach using a variety of common objects with different sizes, shapes, weights, and
surface compliances.

Topic: Automated Health Alerts Using In-Home Sensor Data for Embedded Health Assessment
Abstract: We present an example of unobtrusive, continuous monitoring in the home for the purpose
of assessingearly healthchanges. Sensors embeddedin the environment capturebehaviorandactivity patterns.
Changes in patterns are detectedas potential signs of changinghealth. Wefirst present results of a preliminary
study investigating22features extractedfromin-home sensordata. A 1-D alert algorithm was thenimplemented
to generate healthalerts to clinicians in a senior housing facility. Clinicians analyze each alert and provide a
ratingon the clinical relevance.These ratings are then usedas ground truth for training and testing classifiers.
Here, we present the methodology for four classification approaches that fuse multisensory data. Results are
shown usingembedded sensor data andhealthalert ratings collectedon21 seniors over nine mont hs. The best
results showsimilar performance fortwo techniques, where one approachuses only domain knowledge and the
seconduses supervisedlearningfor training. Finally, we proposea health change detectionmodel basedon these
results andclinical expertise. The systemof in-home sensors andalgorithms for automatedhealth alerts provides
a methodfor detectinghealthproblems veryearlyso that earlytreatment is possible. This method of passive in-
home sensing alleviates compliance issues.

Topic: Security-Aware Modeling and Efficient Mapping for CAN-Based Real-Time Distributed
Automotive Systems
Abstract:Securityhas becomea critical issue for automotive electronic systems. To protect against attacks,
security mechanisms have to be applied, but the overhead of those mechanisms may
2015

NEXGEN TECHNOLOGY
impede system performanceandcause violations of design constraints. To remedythis problem,we proposed an
integrated mixed integer linear programming (MILP) formulation that is the first to
address both securityandsafetyconstraints duringsystem mapping for controller area network (CAN) based
systems [10]. However,its signal-basedsecurity constraints do not fully reflect real securityrequirements, andits
objective functionis to minimize functional pathlatencies rather than minimize security risk. Furthermore, its
MILP-based approach has high computation complexity.
In this work, we present a newformulation that defines path-basedsecurityconstraints and minimizes security
risk directly, andproposea newheuristic algorithm to solve the formulation efficiently. Experiments on an
industrial example show that our new algorithm achieves comparable solution quality as the MILP -based
approach with much better efficiency.

Topic: Design and Operation of Secure Cyber-Physical Systems
Abstract:This letterproposes a holistic frameworkforthe design andoperationof secure andreliable resource-
constrained cyber-physical systems. The proposed framework combines
control-theoretic methods, information security notions and computational models to characterize tradeoffs
amongdifferent design andoperationobjectives. We quantifythe intricate relationamongcontrol performance,
system securityandplatform schedulabilitythrough a minimal set of interface variables. We argue that security
mechanisms and control algorithms need to
be codesignedandcomanagedwith theembeddedplatform, so as to avoidthe design of algorithms that are too
expensive to implement on the embedded platform, or significantly impede
design objectives such as performance and timing robustness.

Topic: Task-Aware Interrupt Controller: Priority Space Unification in Real-Time Systems
Abstract;In the development of real-time systems, predictability is often hindered by technological factors
which break the timing abstractions offered by real time operating systems
(RTOSs); namely,the priority space separation between threads and interrupts induces the rate-monotonic
problem. Software approaches have tackled this issue, attempting to unify the priority
space with varyingdegrees of success. We present a hardware approach to the problem: unifying the priority
space at the interrupt handling subsystem, predictability is greatly enhanced with minimum software
modifications. Our solution provides the interrupt controller with awareness of the currently running

task’s priority makingthe solutionindependent of the used operating system. We show how our approach is
minimally intrusive at hardware architecture level and provides benefits beyond the
capabilities of previous approaches. Our technique shows a 0.05% run-time overheadif no interrupts occur, and
run-time reduction proportional to interrupt rate for rates higher than 5 per s, for a
interrupt workload around 0.07 ms.

Topic: Scheduling DynamicHard Real-Time Task Sets on Fully and Partially Reconfigurable Platforms
Abstract:Reconfigurable systems are increasingly being employed in a large class of today’s heterogeneous
real-time embeddedsystems which often demand satisfaction of stringent timeliness constraints. However,
executing a set of hard real-time applications on reconfigurable systems such that all timing
constraints are satisfiedwhile also allowingefficient resourceutilizationrequires effective scheduling, mapping
andadmission control strategies. This letter presents methodologies for scheduling periodic hard real-time
dynamic task sets on fully and partially reconfigurable field-programmable gate arrays (FPGAs).
The floor of theFPGA is assumedto be staticallyequipartitioned intoa set ofhomogeneous tiles (each of which
act as individual processingelements orPEs)such that anyarbitrary task of the given task set may be feasibly
mapped into the area of a given tile. Experimental results reveal that the proposed algorithms are able
to achieve high resource utilization with low task rejection rates over a variety of simulation scenarios.

Topic: Exploiting Partially-Forgetful Memories for Approximate Computing
Abstract:While the memorysubsystem is already a major contributor to energy consumption of embedded
systems, the guard-banding required for masking the effects of ever increasing
manufacturingvariations in memories imposes even more energy overhead. In this letter, we explore how
Partially-Forgetful Memories can be usedby exploitingthe intrinsic tolerance of a vast class of applications to
some level of error for relaxing this guard-banding in memories. We discuss the challenges to
be addressedand introduce RelaxedCache as an exemplar to address these challenges for partially-forgetful
SRAM caches. Preliminaryresults showhowadaptingguard-bands to application characteristics can help the
system save significant amount of cache leakage energy (up to 74%) while still generating
acceptable quality results.

Topic: Hibernus: SustainingComputation During Intermittent Supply for Energy-Harvesting System
Abstract:A key challenge tothe future of energy-harvestingsystems is thediscontinuous power supply that is
often generated. We propose a new approach, Hibernus, which enables computation to be sustained during
intermittent supply. The approach has a low energy and time overhead which is achieved by reactively
hibernating: savingsystemstate onlyonce, when power is about to be lost, and then sleeping until the supply
recovers. Wevalidate theapproachexperimentally ona processorwith FRAM nonvolatile memory, allowing it
to reactivelyhibernateusingonly energy stored in its decoupling capacitance. When compared to a recently
proposedtechnique, the approachreduces processortime andenergy overheads by 76%–100% and 49%–79%
respectively.

Abstract: Modern vehicles are increasingly being interconnected with computer systems, which collect
informationbothfromvehicular sources andInternet services. Unfortunately, this creates a nonnegligible attack
surface, which extends when vehicles are partly operated via smartphones. In this letter, a
hierarchically distributedcontrol systemarchitecture which integrates a smartphone with classical embedded
systems is presented, andan ad-hoc, end-to-endsecuritylayer is designedto demonstrate howa smartphone can
interact securely with a modern vehicle without requiring modifications to the existing in-vehicle
network. Experimental results demonstrate the effectiveness of the approach.

Topic: GSMCONTROLLED ROBOTICS
Abstract:In traditional methodologytofindthe motion of human we have some devices like video camera,
radar, ultrasonicsensoretc. In case ofvideo camera another humanhave tocontinuously monitor the video. If
we use radar or ultrasonic sensor, we needa transmitteranda receiver.So these arehigh in cost andmost of the
jammingtechniques are there tocheat (i.e.stealthbomberplanes).But thereis another interestingsensingdevice
used to findthe motionof human(i.e.)PIR (Pyroelectric Infra Red sensor). It absorbs the infrared radiation
(wave length of 9.4micro meters) from thehumanbody andcreates a correspondingsignal. As it has protection
devices like lenses it is less suppose to be cheated. As this is sensitive only human body heat and frequency of
radiation, this sensor canbe usedto findhuman upto3 meterto90 meterdistance (usingperfect Fresnel lenses).
So it helps to findhuman availabilitybeyondthe barriers like walls and fire etc. It can be used as earth quake

Topic: Passenger BUS Alert System for Easy Navigation of Blind
Abstract:Talkingsigns, guide cane, echolocations are all useful in navigating the visually challenged
people to reach theirdestination, but the main objective is not reached that it fails to join them with
traffic. In this project we propose a bus system using wireless sensor networks (WSNs).The blind people
in the bus station is provided with a ZigBee unit which is recognized by the ZigBee in the bus and the
indication is made in the bus that the blind people is present in the station. So the bus stops at the
particular station. The desired bus that the blind want to take is notified to him with the help of speech
recognition system HM2007. The blind gives the input about the place he has to reach using
microphones and the voice recognition system recognizes it .The input is then analyzed by the
microcontrollerwhich generates the bus numbers corresponding to the location provided by the blind.
These bus numbers are converted intoaudio output using the voice synthesizer APR 9600. The ZigBee
transceiver in the bus sends the bus number to the transceiver with the blind and the bus number is
announced to the blindthrough the headphones. The blind takes the right bus parked in front of him
and when the destination is reached it is announcedby means of the GPS-634R which is connected with
the controller and voice synthesizer which produces the audio output. This project is also aimed at
helping the elder people for independent navigation.

Topic: Autonomous Appliance Schedulingfor Household EnergyManagement
Abstract:The advancement of renewable energytechnologies has seenthe emergence of customer owned grid
tiedwind andsolar micro grids. These microgrids offer an opportunity to energy users to lower their energy
costs as well as enabling the power suppliers to regulate the utility grid. However, the integration of the
renewable energy basedsources intothe smart gridincreases the complexity ofthe main grid. The success of this
scheme will be heavily reliant onaccurate real-time information exchange between the micro grid, themaingrid,
andthe consumers. Thecommunicationbetween these agents will be critical in implementation of intelligent
decisions by the smart grid. The micro grids will be requiredto relay energyforecasts information to the utility
grid. Similarly, customers will be expectedtosubmit energy demand schedules, toactively monitor energy price
signals, to participate in energy bids, andto respondto energy management signals in real time. This kind of
grid-user interaction will be overwhelming andcouldresult in consumer apathy. There is therefore a need to
develop smart systems that will autonomously execute all thesetasks without the prompting of the customers.
This paperpresents one such approach. Inthis study, we proposeda demandside energy management for a grid
connected household with a locally generated photovoltaic energy. To ensure efficient household energy
management, smart scheduling of electrical appliances has also been presented.

Topic: A Compactand CompliantExternal Pipe-Crawling Robot
Abstract:The focus of this paperis on the practical aspects of design, prototyping, and testing of a compact,
compliant external pipe-crawling robot that can inspect a closely spaced bundle of pipes in hazardous
environments andareas that are inaccessible to humans. The robot consists oftwo radiallydeployable compliant
ringactuators that are attachedtoeach other along the longitudinal axis of the pipe by a bidirectional linear
actuator. Therobot imitates the motion ofan inchworm.The novel aspect of the compliant ring actuator is a
spring-steel compliant mechanismthat converts circumferential motion to radial motion of its multiple gripping
pads. Circumferential motiontoringactuators is provided by two shape memory alloy (SMA) wires that are
guided by insulating rollers. The design of the compliant mechanism is derived from a radially deployable
mechanism.A unique feature ofthe design is that the compliant mechanism provides the necessary kinematic
function within the limitedannular space aroundthe pipe andserves as the bias spring for the SMA wires. The
robot has a control circuit that sequentially activates theSMA wires and the linear actuator; it also controls the
crawlingspeed. The robot has been fabricated, tested, andautomated. Its crawling speed is about 45 mm/min,
andthe weight is about 150 g. It fits within an annularspace ofa radial span of15 mmtocrawl on a pipe of 60-
mm outer diameter.

Topic: O-Track: Towards Order Trackingfor Tags in Mobile RFID Systems
Abstract:In manylogistics applications ofRFID technology, luggage attachedwith tags are placed on moving
conveyor belts for processing. It is important to figure out the order of goods on the belts so that further actions
like sortingcan be accurately taken onproper goods. Due to arbitrary goods placement or the irregularity of
wireless signal propagation,neither ofthe orderof tagidentification nor the received signal strength provides
sufficient evidence ontheirrelative positions on thebelts. Inthis study, we observe, fromexperiments, a critical
region of reading rate when a tag gets close enough to a reader. This phenomenon, as well as other signal
attributes, yields the stable indication of tag order. We establish a probabilistic model for recognizing the
transient critical regionandpropose the OTrackprotocol to continuouslymonitor the order of tags. To validate
the protocol, we
evaluate theaccuracy andeffectiveness through a one-monthexperiment conductedthrough a workingconveyor
at BeijingCapital International Airport.

NEXGEN TECHNOLOGY
counting, classification, andspeedmeasurement. The sensorsystem consists of wireless anisotropic magnetic
devices that do not require to be embedded in the roadway—the devices are placed next to the roadway and
measure trafficin the immediatelyadjacent lane.An algorithmbasedon a magnetic field model is proposed to
make the systemrobust tothe errors createdby larger vehicles driving in the nonadjacent lane. These false calls
cause an 8% error if uncorrected. The use of the proposed algorithm reduces this error to only 1%. Speed
measurement is basedon the calculation of the cross correlation between longitudinally spaced sensors. Fast
computationof the cross correlation is enabled by using frequency-domain signal processing techniques. An
algorithmfor automaticallycorrectingforany small misalignment of the sensors is utilized. A high-accuracy
differential Global PositioningSystem is usedas a reference to measure vehicle speeds to evaluate the accuracy
of the speedmeasurement from thenewsensor system. The results showthat the maximum error of the speed
estimates is less than2.5% over theentirerange of5–27m/s (11–60mi/h). Vehicle classification is done based
on the magnetic length andan estimate ofthe average vertical magnetic height of the vehicle. Vehicle length is
estimatedfromthe product of occupancyand estimatedspeed. The average vertical magnetic height is estimated
using two magnetic sensors that are verticallyspacedby 0.25m. Finally, it is shown that the sensor system can
be used to reliably count the number ofright turns at anintersection, with an accuracy of 95%. The developed
sensor system is compact, portable, wireless, and inexpensive. Data are presented from a large number of
vehicles on a regular busy urban road in the Twin Cities, MN,USA.

Topic: Receiver Autonomous Integrity Monitoring ofGNSS Signals forElectronic Toll Collection
Abstract:Various roaduser chargingmechanisms are used to control traffic and its resulting pollution, as well
as revenue sources forreinvestment in the roadinfrastructure. Among them, electronic toll collection (ETC)
systems basedon user positions estimated with Global Navigation Satellite Systems (GNSS) are particularly
attractive due to their flexibility and reduced roadside infrastructure in comparison to other systems such as
tollbooths. Because GNSS positioning may be perturbed by different errors and failures, ETC systems, as
liability criticalapplications,shouldmonitor the integrity of GNSS signals in order to limit the use of faulty
positions andtheconsequent chargingerrors. Theintegrity-monitoringsystems have beenoriginally designed for
civil aviation; hence,theyneedtobe adaptedto theETC requirements. This paper studies the use of receiver
autonomous integritymonitoring(RAIM),which are algorithms run within the GNSSreceiver and, therefore,are
easier to tune to ETC needs than other systems based on external information. The weighted least squares
residual RAIM used in civil aviation is analyzed, and an algorithm modification for ETC is proposed.
Simulations demonstrate that the proposed RAIM algorithm has a superior level of availability over civil-
aviation-based RAIM procedures, particularly in urban environments.

Topic: A Decentralized Cooperative Control Scheme with Obstacle Avoidance for a Team ofMobile
Robots
Abstract:The problem offormationcontrol of a team of mobile robots based on the virtual and behavioral
structures is consideredin this paper.In the virtual structure, eachmobile robot is modeledby an electric charge.
The mobile robots move toward a circle and due to repulsive forces between the identical charges, regular
polygon formations ofthe mobile robots will be realized. For swarm formation, a virtual mobile robot is located
at the centerof thecircle,andothermobile robots followit. Inthe introducedapproach, each mobile robot finds
its positionin the formation,autonomously, andthe formation can change automatically in thecase of change in
the number of the mobile robots. This paper also proposes a technique for avoiding obstacles based on the
behavioral structure. Inthis technique, when a mobile robot gets close to an obstacle, while moving toward its
target, a rotational potential fieldis appliedtolead the mobile robot to avoid the obstacle, without locating in
local minima positions.

Abstract:Wireless sensornetworks (WSNs) haverecently been applied in industrial monitoring applications

sensing circuit, which employs two sensors. We discuss the design of a real WSN node for gas sensing and
evaluate it with respect to anidentical platformthat uses the Wheatstone bridge. The proposedapproach ensures
significant energy savings andhelps to avoidzerooffset issue. Besides, we employ a more efficient and secure

Topic: Modeling andDetectingAggressiveness From DrivingSignals
Abstract:The development of advanced driver assistance systems (ADASs) will be a crucial element in the
construction offutureintelligent transportation systems with the objective of reducing the number of traffic
accidents andtheir subsequent fatalities. Specifically,drivingbehaviors couldbe monitoredonline to determine
the crash risk and provide warning information to the driver via their ADAS. In this paper, we focus on
aggressiveness as one of thepotential causes of traffic accidents. We demonstrate that aggressiveness can be
detectedby monitoringexternal driving signals such as lateral and longitudinal accelerations and speed. We
model aggressiveness as a linear filter operating on these signals, thus scaling their probability distribution
functions andmodifyingtheirmeanvalue,standarddeviation,anddynamic range. Next, we proceed to validate
this model via an experiment, conductedunder real drivingconditions, involvingtendifferent drivers, travelinga
route with five different types of roadsections,subject tobothsmooth and aggressive behaviors. The obtained
results confirmthe validityof the model ofaggressiveness. In addition, they show the generality of this model
andits applicabilitytospecific drivingsignals (speed, longitudinal, andlateral accelerations), everysingle driver,
andevery roadtype. Finally, we build a classifier capable of detecting aggressive behavior from the driving
signal. This classifier achieves a success rate up to 92%.

Topic: Design of an Intelligent Security Robot for Collision Free Navigation Applications
Abstract:Robotics industry has replaced human efforts gradually in performing rather difficult tasks. A
very pertinent aspect ofan intelligent securityrobot is to reach the goal safelyby avoiding unknown obstacles
in an unknown environment. In this paper we have developed an embedded C program code to design an
intelligent robot which can overcome the obstacles comingin its way. We have made use of three infrared
sensors to detect theobstacles via theIR communication technique. The IR transmitter sends out infrared
radiation in a direction which consequentlybounces back on coming across the surface of an object and

Topic: PROTOTYPEOFA FINGERPRINTBASED LICENSING SYSTEM
FOR DRIVING
Abstract:To prevent non-licensees from drivingandthereforecausingaccidents, a newsystemis proposed. An
important andveryreliable human identificationmethodis fingerprint identification. Fingerprint identification is
one of the most popularandreliable personal biometricidentificationmethods. The proposedsystemconsists of
a smart card capable of storing the fingerprint of particular person. While issuing the license, the specific
person’s fingerprint is to be storedin thecard. Vehicles such as cars, bikes etc shouldhave a cardreader capable
of readingthe particular license. The same automobile shouldhavethe facility of fingerprint reader device. A
person, who wishes to drivethe vehicle,shouldinsert the card (license) in the vehicle and then swipe his/her
finger. If the finger print storedin the cardandfingerprint swipedin the device matches, he/she can proceed for
ignition, otherwise ignitionwill not work. Moreover, the seat belt detector verifies andthen prompts the user to
wear the seat belt before driving. This increases the security of vehicles and also ensures safe driving by
preventing accidents.

Topic: A Novel Design For Vehicle License Plate Detection and Recognition
Abstract:License plate recognition (LPR) plays a majorrole in this busy world, as the number of vehicles
increases day by day, theft of vehicles,breakingtraffic rules, enteringrestrictedarea arealso increases linearly,
so to block this act license plate recognitionsystem is designed. License Plate Recognition systems basically
consist of 3 main processing steps such as: Detection of number plate, Segmentation of plate characters
and Recognition of each character. Among this, character segmentation is a most challenging task, as the
accuracy of the character recognitionrelies on the accuracy of the character segmentation. Problems of
different lighting condition, adhesion, fracture, rivet, rotation degrades the accuracy of the character
segmentation. So in order to comethese problems and uplift the accuracy of character segmentation various
algorithms are developedfor this work. This thesis presents a robust method of license plate location,
segmentation and reorganization of the characters present in the located plate. The images of various
vehicles have been acquiredand converted in to gray-scale images. Then noise present in the plates are
removed and the segmentation of gray scale image generatedby findingedges for smoothing image is used
to reduce the numberof connectedcomponent andthenbwlabel is used to calculate theconnected component.
Finally, single character in the license plate is detected. The aim is to show that the proposed method
achievedhigh accuracy by optimizing various parameters with higher recognition rate than the traditional
methods.

Topic: Vision-Based Path Planning with Obstacle Avoidance for Mobile Robots usingLinear Matrix
Inequalities
Abstract:In this paper, a vision-basedobstacle avoidingpath generationproblem is consideredforautonomous
mobile robots under a top-viewworkspace. The collision-free path planning problem is converted to a convex
optimizationproblemthat can be solved numerically using linear matrix inequalities (LMI). A new optimal
(shortest)pathcost formulation is given for LMI optimization using a novel Line of Sight Meshing (LSM)
method. As comparedtothe traditional meshingalgorithms such as Voronoi and Delaunay, the LSM generates
fewer mesh cells which results in reducedcomputation time. A virtual path diagram (VPD), consisting of all
collision-free piecewise straight line paths, is then foundforrobot navigation. The LMIoptimization method is
then usedto findthe optimal (shortest) collision-free path from the VPD set. In addition to distance, other
constraints, such as terraincondition and curvature of the path can be incorporated in the cost function for
constrainedoptimal solution.Finally, a rapidprototyping(RP)environment has been developed, which is used
for hardware implementationof the algorithm. The generatedpaths are then converted to motion commands,
which are sent wirelessly from a base-station to mobile robots for motion control.

Abstract:Heart ratecan be measuredeither by the ECGwaveformor by the blood flowinto the finger (pulse
method). The pulse method is simple andconvenient. When blood flows during the systolic stroke of the
heart into the body parts, the finger gets its blood via the radial artery on the arm. The blood flow into
the finger can be sensedphoto electrically.To count the heart beats, here we use a small light source on one side
of the finger (thumb) and observe the change in light intensity on the other side. The blood flow causes
variationin light intensity reachingthe light dependent resistor (LDR),which results in change in signal strength
due to change in the resistance of the LDR.’

Abstract:In most of the modern manufacturing and processing industries, there is complete industrial
automationthrough sophisticate hardware andsoftware like programmable logic controller (PLC), distributed
control system (DCS), and supervisory control and data acquisition (SCADA).
Microcontroller-based embedded systems play major role in industrial automation. One such widely used
system is the programmable timer. The major applications of programmable timer are as follows: 1. initiating
the process after desired time. 2. Switching on/ off the process after
predetermined time 3. Providing delay in between processes 4. Applyinginput to on/off type open-loop
control system depending upon the requirement of process, onecan set the time of programmable timer. As
the time period expires, the timer will either trigger 01'shut the process. Earlier
there were mechanical timers that usedgear assembly (same as wall clock) and mechanical contacts. But the
problem with these was that due to mechanical parts and movements, they were not durable. Electronic
timers have become very popular as these have more functionalities and long
operating life. A simple electronic timer can be to enhance the programmable timer for generating precise
timingandadditional features,microcontrollers (embeddedcontrollers) are usedwith peripheral devices. Some
of the features of programmable industrial on/ off timer presented
here include: 1. Time set from 1 to 60 seconds (canbe extended) 2.. 'On' time and' off' time can
beprogrammed (from 1 to 60 seconds 3. Repeat (continuous) and single operation 4. Fully remote-

condition of the motor. If water reaches sensor B within 10 minutes, the micro
controllercomes out ofthe dry-run condition and allows the motor to keep pushing water in the tank. The
motorwill remain 'on' until waterreaches sensor C. Thenit will stop automatically and t he microcontroller
will go into the standby mode. The LCD module will II show 'tank full' followed
by 'standby mode' after a few seconds. The 'standby mode' message is displayeduntil water andif the dry-

motor automatically. Now you have to check the line for water and manually
reset the microcontroller to start operation. In the whole procedure, the micro controller checks for high and
low voltages. Forexample, when thevoltage is high, it will scan for about two seconds to check whether it is a
fluctuation. If the voltage remains high after two seconds, themicrocontroller will halt running of the
motor. Nowit will wait for the voltage tosettle down. Afterthe voltage becomes normal, it will still check for

Topic: MICRO CONTROLLER BASED ONEDC MOTOR CONTROLLER
Abstract:Dc motor speed controllers are very useful for controlling the motion of robotic and industrial
automation systems. The controller presentedhereuses the pulse-width modulation (PWM) technique. The
PWM wave for speed control is generated using Atmel AT89C52microcontroller. Tocontrol the speed of
the DC motor,youneeda variable -voltage DC power source. When the DC motor is switched on, it
takes certain time to reach the full speed. As soon as the power supply is switched on, the DC motor
starts gaining speed and if you switch off the
power supply before it reaches the maximum rated speed, it starts to slow down. In case switching on and
switchingoff are done in quick succession, the motor rotates at a slower speedbetween zeroandfull ratedspeed.
This is what a PWM technique basedcontroller does: it switches the motor' on' and 'off' with a pulse train. To
control the motor speed, it varies (modulates) the width of the pulses-hence the pulse width modulation.
When the motor is, on‟ for a short periodand 'off' for a longone, it will rotate slowly. When themotor is 'on'
for most ofthe time and' off' onlyfor a short while, it will rotate at higherspeed, say, nearly at full (maximum)
rated speed.

Topic: WIRELESS MICROCONTROLLER BASED AUTOMATIC FLUSH SYSTEM
Abstract:In manual flush systemthe user press a button, which opens a flush valve allowing mains-pressure
water to flowinto the bowl, or sometimes the user press directly a flush lever (a handle connected to a flush
meter). The value contains a pneumatic mechanism that closes it after a reset time.
Today, manual flush system has been replaced with a sensor operatedsystem that automatically flushes
the fixture when the user departs. The microcontroller based automatic flush system is infrared sensor to
detect a user approaching the fixture, then it wait until the user departs. It also
flushes before the person departs if the person is person for more than the preset time (5 minutes).

Topic: MOVING MESSAGEDISPLAY USING ALPHA NUMERIC DISPLAY
Abstract:LED-based moving- message displays are becoming popular for transmitting information to
large groups of people quickly. These can be usedindoors or outdoors. We can find such displays in areas
like railway platforms, banks, public offices, hotels, training institutes, nightclubs and shops. Compared to
LEDs, liquid-crystal displays (LCDs) are easy to interface with a microcontroller for displaying
information as these havemany built-in functions. But these can't be observed from a distance and large
size LCDs are very costly. LED-based displays can be of two types: dot-matrix and segmental. If you
implement a moving- message display with multiplexeddot-matrixLEDs, it will be very costly for displaying
16 characters or more at a time.
