Design and implementation of an sms based robotic system for hole- detection ...eSAT Journals
Abstract This paper presents the design and implementation of SMS-based robotic system for hole-detection in surface pipes using GPS/GPRS/GSM technology. In industries today, surface pipelines are used to transport fluids; some of these pipelines have joints which are welded together. In a situation whereby the welding is not perfectly done, leakage of fluids may occur, leading to product loss and downtime. Therefore to checkmate this issue of pipeline leakage, an SMS-based robotic system is designed to inspect the pipelines for holes and if light is sensed in the pipelines through the sensing devices on the robot, a Short Message Service (SMS) indicating the location where the light was sensed is sent to the operator’s phone with help of the SIM 900 GPS/GPRS/GSM MODEM installed on the robot hardware system. The robot system is designed with an Arduino Uno Micro-Controller and some sensing devices installed on it. The system is programmed using embedded C language. After the implementation, the robot system was tested which could detect holes in surface pipelines and sent short message to the personnel’s mobile phone.

Cholesterol Bio Sensors: getter better fastJeffrey Funk
These slides use concepts from my (Jeff Funk) course entitled analyzing hi-tech opportunities to analyze the increasing economic feasibility of bio-sensors for measuring cholesterol in humans. Bio-sensors detect the level of cholesterol (and other biological materials) using enzymes, matrices, and transducers. The enzymes, which are held in a matrix, react with the cholesterol and an electric signal is produced from an amperometric transducer. Improvements in sensitivity, response time, shelf life, detection limit, and reusability have been achieved through creating more appropriate biological materials for the enzymes, matrices, and transducers.
These slides discuss the falling cost of sensors, MEMs, and the Internet of Things. The costs of MEMs, transceivers and other components are falling and making the IoT economically feasible. These slides discusses these cost reductions in detail and many examples of how the IoT is emerging for many types of industrial products.

I. INTRODUCTION
Embedded System is a combination of computer hardware and software, and perhaps additional
mechanical or other parts, designed to perform a specific function, an embedded system. Each of these devices
contains a processor and software and is designed to perform a specific function; the first such systems could
not possibly have appeared before 1971. That was the year Intel introduced the world's first microprocessor.
This chip, the 4004, was designed for use in a line of business calculators produced by the Japanese Company
Busicom. In 1969, Busicom asked Intel to design a set of custom integrated circuits-one for each of their new
calculator models. The 4004 was Intel's response rather than design custom hardware for each calculator, Intel
proposed a general-purpose circuit that could be used throughout the entire line of calculators. Intel's idea was
that the software would give each calculator its unique set of features.
The microcontroller was an overnight success, and its use increased steadily over the next decade.
Early embedded applications included unmanned space probes, computerized traffic lights, and aircraft flight
control systems. In the 1980s, embedded systems quietly rode the waves of the microcomputer age and brought
microprocessors into every part of our kitchens (bread machines, food processors, and microwave ovens), living
rooms (televisions, stereos, and remote controls), and workplaces (fax machines, pagers, laser printers, cash
registers, and credit card readers).
It seems inevitable that the number of embedded systems will continue to increase rapidly. Already there
are promising new embedded devices that have enormous market potential; light switches and thermostats that
can be central computer, intelligent air-bag systems that don't inflate when children or small adults are present,
pal-sized electronic organizers and personal digital assistants (PDAs), digital cameras, and dashboard
navigation systems. Clearly, individuals who possess the skills and desire to design the next generation of
embedded systems will be in demand for quite some time.
II. System Design Model
A. Software design module
The development process for the PSoC device differs from that of a traditional fixed function
microprocessor. The configurable analog and digital hardware blocks give the PSoC architecture a unique
flexibility that pays dividends in managing specification change during development and by lowering inventory
costs. These configurable resources, called PSoC Blocks, have the ability to implement a wide variety of user-
selectable functions.
Each block has several registers that determine its function and connectivity to other blocks,
multiplexers, buses, and to the IO pins. Iterative development cycles permit you to adapt the hardware as well as
the software. This substantially lowers the risk of having to select a different part to meet the final design
requirements. To speed the development process, the PSoC Designer Integrated Development Environment
2. Applications Of Mems In Robotics And Bio Mems Using Psoc With Metal Detector & Wireless
www.iosrjournals.org 52 | Page
(IDE) provides a library of pre-built, pre-tested hardware peripheral functions, called “User Modules.” User
modules make selecting and implementing peripheral devices simple, and come in analog, digital, and mixed
signal varieties. The standard User Module library contains over 50 common peripherals such as ADCs, DACs
Timers, Counters, UARTs, and other not-so common peripherals Such as DTMF Generators and Bi-Quad
analog filter sections. Each user module establishes the basic register settings that implement the selected
function. It also provides parameters that allow you to tailor its precise configuration to your particular
application.
For example, a Pulse Width Modulator User Module configures one or more digital PSoC blocks, one
for each 8 bits of resolution. The user module parameters permit you to establish the pulse width and duty cycle.
User modules also provide tested software to cut your development time. The user module application
programming interface (API) provides high-level functions to control and respond to hardware events at run-
time.
The development process starts when you open a new project and bring up the Device Editor, a
graphical user interface (GUI) for configuring the hardware. You pick the user modules you need for your
project and map them onto the PSoC blocks with point-and-click simplicity. Next, you build signal chains by
interconnecting user modules to each other and the IO pins. At this stage, you also configure the clock source
connections and enter parameter values directly or by selecting values from drop-down menus.
The last step in the development process takes place inside the PSoC Designer’s Debugger subsystem. The
Debugger downloads the HEX image to the In-Circuit Emulator (ICE) where it runs at full speed. Debugger
capabilities rival those of systems costing many times more. In addition to traditional single-step, run-to-
breakpoint and watch-variable features, the Debugger provides a large trace buffer and allows you define
complex breakpoint events that include monitoring address and data bus values, memory locations and external
signals.

i. ACCELEROMETERGENERAL DESCRIPTION
The ADXL335 is a small, thin, low power, complete 3-axis accelerometer with signal conditioned
voltage outputs. The product measures acceleration with a minimum full-scale range of ±3 g. It can measure the
static acceleration of gravity in tilt-sensing applications, as well as dynamic acceleration resulting from motion,
shock, or vibration.
The user selects the bandwidth of the accelerometer using the CX, CY, and CZ capacitors at the
XOUT, YOUT, and ZOUT pins. Bandwidths can be selected to suit the application, with a range of 0.5 Hz to
1600 Hz for the X and Y axes, and a range of 0.5 Hz to 550 Hz for the Z axis.
The ADXL335 is available in a small, low profile, 4 mm × 4 mm × 1.45 mm, 16-lead, plastic lead frame chip
scale package (LFCSP_LQ).

ii. METAL DETECTOR
Metal detectors use electromagnetic induction to detect metal. Metal detector can help you to find the
metals buried deep in the ground. Uses include de-mining (the detection of land mines), the detection of
weapons such as knives and guns, especially at airports, geophysical prospecting, archaeology and treasure
hunting. Metal detectors are also used to detect foreign bodies in food, and in the construction industry to detect
steel reinforcing bars in concrete and pipes and wires buried in walls and floors.The simplest form of a metal
detector consists of an oscillator producing an alternating current that passes through a coil producing an
alternating magnetic field. If a piece of electrically conductive metal is close to the coil, eddy currents will be
induced in the metal, and this produces an alternating magnetic field of its own.
iii. WIRELESS CAMERA WITH VOICE TRANSMISSION
A portable small-sized camera has a case having a ball-point pen appearance in a portion thereof and a
through hole in one side, and a camera circuit part built in the case and for photographing an object through the
through hole. The portable small-sized camera has the ball-point pen appearance, photographing a particular
location in secret is possible without exposure to others. The camera circuit part is connected to a wireless
transmission device for outputting a signal by a cable. A wireless receiving device at a remote location from the

IV. Conclusion
Embedded Systems plays a vital role in our day today life. They are used for household appliances like
microwave oven to the satellite applications. They provide good man to machine interface. Automation is the
further step in the world of Embedded Systems, which includes the elimination of the human being in the
mundane applications. They are cost effective, accurate and can work in any conditions and round the clock.
