DESIGN AND CONSTRUCTION OF MICROCONTROLLER BASED INTELLIGENT TRAFFIC LIGHT CONTROLLER

ABSTRACT:  A traffic light system is an electronic circuitry designed and configured to control the flow of the traffic (vehicular and human) at roads intersection without the physical presence of a traffic warden. This is made possible through the help of a signaling device which is mounted at roads intersection. It is achieved using electronic components and a micro-controller for proper timing and execution.       TABLE OF CONTENTS   CHAPTER ONE 1.0 INTRODUCTION: 1 BACKG...

DESIGN AND CONSTRUCTION OF A MICROCOMPUTER BASED SECURITY SYSTEM WITH INTRUDER POSITION DISPLAY

Abstract: This project is aimed to implement a system that will automate the security system of a given area. It ensures that the user is alerted each time an intruder encroaches a secured position in an area of application through the sounding of alarm.(Siren) More so, information about the intruder’s position will also be made noticed to the user by this security system. The Project will be based on microcomputer and other electronic design to achieve the above stated purposes.  Th...

DESIGN AND CONSTRUCTION OF A MICRO CONTROLLER BASED FAST FOOD MENU TABLE WITH DOT MATRIX DISPLAY BOARD.

 ABSTRACT: This project design is simply used to display the items demanded by each customer on the table. Each table has four buttons for Rice, beans, amala and akpu, and each of the buttons are connected to the processor. The customers on every table presses the button with the label of the item he or she needed. Then, a screen in the kitchen is used to display the table number and the items demanded.    The major components used in this design are 8951 microprocessor, crystal o...

WIRELESS BASED TSUNAMI AND EARTHQUAKE WARNING SYSTEM

ABSTRACT Natural Disasters or Natural Calamities, whatever you name it has for long been the most dreaded cause of mass destruction and loss of human lives, wealth and property. It destroys the beauty of earth, lives of humans and leave behind no traces of existence. It’s so severe in its approach that millions and billions of people and land vanishes and escape into oblivion in just a moment. But nothing fruitful or beneficial could be done as most of the people thought that these d...

Digital Fan Regulator

Abstract Digital (Fan) Regulator is one of the applications of electronics to increase the facilities of life. Fan is one of the unavoidable Electronic equipment in our day to day life. It has become essential element without which people can’t lead a smooth life. The presence of a fan in a house or office is not now considered as a luxury on the other hand it is included in the basic requirement. The uses of new electronic theories have been put down by expertise to increase the fa...

Automatic door opening systems using IR sensors

 INTRODUCTION:The main objective of this project is to develop an Automatic Door opening system using IR sensors which will reduce the need of manual labor.Automatic door opening systems using IR sensors plays a very important role in domestic applications. The elimination of manual supervision adds up as an additional advantage for its usage. Its significance can be proved by considering the following specialties of kit designed.

APPLIANCES CONTROL THROUGH SMS

Abstract      This seminar is designed to make home automation easy to control when a user is not at home. The paper is designed to allow easy use of a mobile phone to control appliances in the home. Using a mobile phone the development of the control system will be carried out using SMS. This will communicate with another mobile phone, which in turn controls the devices attached to microcontroller modules. When the action has been carried out then a response is sent to the user. The p...

HYDRO POWER RESOURCES IN NIGERIA

INTRODUCTION Nigeria is characterized with large expanse of land with remote, isolated communities located at long intervals whose inhabitants are often peasant farmers living below subsistence level these areas are marked by lack of basic infrastructures like road network, telecommunication, water supply and electricity etc. Electricity supply in the country has been through centralized generating station (hydro and thermal) with high capacities (above 100MW). The major operators in the Nig...

THE DEPENDENCE OF WATER LEVEL ON ELECTRICAL POWER GENERATION USING JEBBA HYDROPOWER STATION AS CASE STUDY

INTRODUCTION Since the 1970s, energy crises have been reported across the world. In Nigeria Chendo (2001) reported that national energy supply is at present almost entirely, dependent on fossil fuels and fire wood. Also, Akinbami (2001) also observed that the total energy consumption in Nigeria comprises of 5.22% of natural gas, 3.05% of hydroelectricity, and 50.45% natural gas, 3.05% of hydroelectricity, and 50.45% of fuel work. Meanwhile, Ozean Journal of Applied Sciences 4(3), 2011 252 Ali...

ASSESSMENT OF ELECTRICAL ENERGY USE EFFICIENCY IN NIGERIA FOOD INDUSTRY

INTRODUCTION Energy for obvious reasons is regarded as the prime mover of any economy, and the engine of growth around which all sectors of the economy revolve. Thus, it becomes imperative that its development, management, and improvement must have predetermined plans and strategies that are capable of driving the economy towards a sure path of sustainable development .West African region has one of the lowest per capita consumptions as far as energy is concerned. On the other hand, the energ...

DESIGN AND CONSTRUCTION A SIMPLE LIGHT SENSITIVE CIRCUIT

Introduction This is the design and construction of a light sensitive circuit which when the sensor is blocked will activate the light emitting diode at the output. The output gain depends on the non-inverting input of the operational amplifier used in this demonstration. This system is made of different component which aided in the functionality of the design. Aim and Objective In this paper we are to design and construct a light sensitive circuit which senses an obstruction in the sensing ...

STUDY OF POWER SYSTEM UNDER TRANSIENT CONDITION

ABSTRACT Transient over voltages have often been blamed for the malfunctioning of electrical power systems. This seminar paper is an overview which seeks to describe the state of the power system under transient condition. It also provides information on the rate of occurrence, on the wave shape, and on the energy associated with the transients, as a function of the location within the power system. Also, the basic principles of coordinated protection with specific experimental examples are e...

MICROCONTROLLER BASED DIGITAL CODE LOCK

ABSTRACT Security is a prime concern in our day-today life. Everyone wants to be as much secure as possible. An access control for doors forms a vital link in a security chain. The microcontroller based Door locker is an access control system that allows only authorized persons to access a restricted area. The system is fully controlled by the 8 bit microcontroller AT89C2051 which has a 2Kbytes of ROM for the program memory. The password is stored in the EPROM so that we can change it at any ...

CONSEQUENCES OF INTEGRATION IN DIGITAL SYSTEM DESIGNS

INTRODUCTION  Digital systems design teams are facing exponentially growing complexities and need processes and tools that reduce the time needed to gain insight into difficult system integration problems.  A digital system is a data technology that uses discrete (discontinuous) values. By contrast, non-digital (or analog) systems use a continuous range of values to represent information. Although digital representations are discrete, the information represented can be either discrete, suc...
