ABSTRACT This report presents the design and implementation of contactless height measuring instrument. This project is based on developing and creating a device that utilizes ultrasonic sensors to determine height of an object ranging up to 200cm or 2m. The device is intended to be used as an alternative to the other more bulky and expensive models found either at home or at health centers. The ultrasonic height measurement device makes use of ultrasonic sound transducers to generate ultraso...

Abstract This research aims to analyze and address the technical study Fault Tolerance in controlling the fuel map by predicting the expected failures to occur in the actuators unit the internal system (Fuel Map) and make the necessary compensatory accounts and estimates to ensure the continuation of the work the engine on an ongoing basis with a failure until the failure treatment or programmatically change the system on part if necessary. Through research was to explain the definition of c...

The diesel fired crucible furnace was designed, constructed using locally available engineering materials mild steel sheet of 1.5 mm, the materials used in this work were obtained from the local markets within Akure and Lagos. They include: mild steel sheet of 1.5mm thickness, compressor pot, stainless steel pipe of 60mm diameter, refractory material (...
ABSTRACT Liquefied Petroleum Gas (LPG) is a group of flammable hydrocarbon gases that are liquefied through pressurization and commonly used as fuel. This project aims to design and implement a micro-controller based Liquefied Petroleum Gas (LPG) gas monitoring & leakage detection system with GSM alert system. Design and implementation of gas detection system as well as SMS alert systems were done to achieve the project aim. Gas leaks can cause major incidents resulting in both human injurie...
ABSTRACT This project presents a light activated switch for switching on and off electrical appliances using light dependent resistor (LOR) for its operation. The light dependent resistor changes or varies resistance with change in the intensity of light hitting its surface, this in turn is passed through a comparator to determine if the light intensity can be said to be day through the resistance entering the comparator. It can however be programmed to act as a light activated switch or as ...
ABSTRACT The demand for energy is becoming a critical challenge for the world as the population continues to grow. This calls for Sustainable energy production and supply such as renewable energy technologies. Renewable energy technologies are safe sources of energy that have a much lower environmental impact than conventional energy technologies. In this paper, the sawdust briquette machine is designed. Sawmill waste is a big problem especially in urban cities in Nigeria. These wastes are b...
ABSTRACT The project presents a currency counting machine with fake note detection. Over the past few years, there has been a large amount of counterfeit money in circulation, usually manufactured by illegal counterfeit rings with the aid of great technological advances. This money is usually spent in public places like a market, buses, etc. This money keeps moving in circulation until it gets to the bank where they notice that the currency is fake and the money is then confiscated, leaving...
ABSTRACT With advancement of technology things are becoming simpler and easier for us. Automatic systems are being preferred over manual system. The purpose 0f this project is to design and construct A GSM based home automation using GSM Module. Using GSM networks, in-.'this project a home. power control system has been. designed that will act as an embedded system which can monitor and control · . . . appliances and other devices using built-in input and output peripherals. The system has ...
Abstract Pump control system is designed to monitor the level of water in the overhead and underground tank through water level sensors, and run the pump only when the water level in the underground tank is up to the position of the water level sensor as long as the overhead tank is empty and automatically turn off the pump after the fullness of the overhead tank where its has two water level sensors. The circuit is made up of (microcontroller Atmega16), three sensors for water level (Float ...
ABSTRACT One of the major problems encountered in rural and urban communities is that of traffic congestion and accidents at blind spots on the road. Several traffic control systems has been designed but in most cases it is targeted towards road intersections, T-junctions, and round-abouts, whereas, congestions and accidents on road blind spots is on the rise. This project, Intelligent Traffic Control System is aimed at controlling the traffic at such points. The system function is based on ...
ABSTRACT The predominance of English language over Okun language in almost all human endeavour is threatening the existence of Okun language and even Okun culture. It is therefore necessary to employ modem day processing tools for the language to catch up with the technological growth the world is experiencing. This project work focuses on the design of a bidirectional English - Okun prepositional phrase machine translation system using rule based approach. The system was designed using Pyth...
Abstract To fulfill the need of higher bandwidth, enhanced number of users, enhanced speed of communication of today’s users, the concept of wavelength division multiplexing (WDM) and fiber optic are developed. In which the multiple input signals are combined together and transfers as a single input. It uses the concept of multiplexing and de-multiplexing. WDM system comprises of amplifiers that are used to enhance the performance of the optical fiber system. This study analyzes a hybrid c...
ABSRACT Hypertensive-patient monitoring usually requires the use of non-invasive sensors that are hardwired to bedside monitors. This set-up is cumbersome, forcing the patient to be confined to his hospital bed thereby not allowing him to move around freely within the hospital premises. Presently, in order to continuously track a patient's Blood Pressure (BP) remotely over a period of time, physicians hand over specialized devices to patients. Most of these devices are cuff-based that are wo...
ABSTRACT Numerous failures and eventual losses in the chemical industry have been traced to corrosion processes. Failures resulting from the inability of metals to support designed load requirements because of losses imposed by corrosion effects can be combated economically through the use of chemical inhibitors. Despite the fact that synthetic inhibitors are effective, nonetheless they are associated with problems of toxicity, disposal, litigation and enormous costs. In order to protect the...
