ARDUINO BASED OBSTACLE AVOIDANCE ROBOT CAR
ABSTRACTThis project involves the design and implementation of an intelligent obstacle-avoiding robot car. Theobjective of this project is to implement a robot car, which while moving should have the ability todetect obstacles in its path and change direction where obstacles are present without any form ofexternal influence. The new direction to be taken to avoid collision is the direction that has the mostdistance between the obstacle and the sensor and this is determined by the robot based ...
A K-Means Clustering Approach for Extraction of Keyframes in Fast-Moving Videos
The explosive growth of video data necessitated the need for large amount of storage devices. Nonetheless, the stored multimedia data has a lot of redundant video frames. These redundant frames make video browsing and retrieval difficult for the user as well as time consuming. Thus, negatively affecting bandwidth utilization and storage capacity. In order to improve the bandwidth utilization and storage capacity, keyframe extraction algorithms were proposed. These algorithms were implemen...
Construction of a DIGITAL AC VOLTMETER
This project- construction of a digital voltmeter seeks to utilize the microcontroller to build a digital voltmeter having better accuracy by utilizing a successive approximation analogue to digital converter ADC to measure the voltage (0 – 250V). Here, the working principal and components of this device are extensively explained. This Digital voltmeters (DVM) display the measured voltage using LCDs (Liquid Crystal Display) to display the result in a floating point format.
Emerging Technologies: Ferroelectric RAM or FRAM
AbstractFerroelectric RAM or FRAM or FeRAM is one of a growing number of alternative non-volatile random-access memory technologies that offer the same functionality as flash memory. It combines the fast read and write access of dynamic RAM(DRAM) - the most common kind of personal computer memory - with the ability to retain data when power is turned off (as do other non-volatile memory devices such as ROM and flash memory). Because FRAM is not as dense (cannot store asmuch data in the same s...
DISIGN AND CONSTRUCTION OF ALERT DETECTION SYSTEM
ABSTRACT In The development of ways to reduce malpractices in examination centers in all educational institutions is an important area of research. One of the major problems discovered aiding malpractices has been the creation of mobile phones, which however is a good communication device but needs to be curtailed during examinations. In order to have a 100% assurance that no student can cheat with his or her mobile phone a mobile detector system with a frequency jamming feature was develope...
Design and Implementation of Micro controller Based Smart Energy Meter Equipped with Prepaid Facilities
Today, humanity can be classified as living in a “machine society” where technological tools are predominantly at different levels interfacing in the day–to-day activity of man. These livelihood activities constitute and deliver economic, social and political benefits and potential risks to the survivability of nations –especially developing nations like ours.Energy meter has been classified as Electromechanical Energy Meters. It is regarded as the most traditional and widely used ene...
Empirical Validation of Photo-voltaic Power Output Forecasting Methods
The electricity produced by renewable energy sources (RES) is constantly increasing worldwide thanks to government policies and technological advancements. Photo voltaic cells are actually a fast rising technology as the source of its power is a commodity that is abundant in this part of the hemisphere. Uncertainty also dominates in the area of the conditions at which the photovoltaic cells are operating, their optimal weather conditions and the effect of the conditions on their output...
DESIGN AND IMPLEMENTATION OF AN INTERNET OF THINGS (IoT) BASED SMART WASTE BIN FOR FILL LEVEL MONITORING AND BIODEGRADABILITY DETECTION
ABSTRACT ABSTRACT It is not doubtful that effective and efficient waste management is essential for the development of a smart city. In developing and most developed countries of the world, overflowing waste from waste bins located at strategic positions in streets or close to residential areas both destroys the aesthetics of the environment and constitutes air pollution to the environs ...
Return on Investment for Open Source Hardware Development
The availability of free and open source hardware designs that can be replicated with low-cost 3-D printers provide large values to scientists that need highly-customized low-volume production scientific equipment. Digital manufacturing technologies have only recently become widespread and the return on investment (ROI) was not clear, so funding for open hardware development was historically sparse. This paper clarifies a method for determining an ROI for FOSH scientific hardware development....
Design and construction of an RF editable LED display board
This project is based on the design and construction of a Wireless Electronic Notice Board. It can be widely used to display latest information anywhere such as institutions, shop, place of worship and other places. This Wireless Electronic Notice Board will offer flexibility to user to control the information display within 50m to 200m range. Similar works were reviewed and the draw backs of these projects were cited and their advantage also considered.The desig...
Electronic Source Code Plagiarism Detection
This paper covers a few algorithms used in an attempt to detect plagiarism among students’ computer program source codes electronically, that is, using a computer software program. One algorithm proved to meet most of the requirements with acceptable results and was implemented using VB .Net programming language.
