Introduction We designed a system for wirelessly controlling relays and monitoring current. This is used for a home load simulation. By wirelessly turning relays on and off by sending commands from a PC to a microcontroller we can change the total load (current) to our simulated home. For wireless communication, we used XBee Series 2 […]

Introduction In short, our project is just an isolated floating plate. Just as our title explained, it is mainly a floating plate that is segregated from all outside vibration using electromagnetic force. This purpose of the project is to design a system that complements common passive shock absorption mechanics and enhances their performance. The main
Introduction The goal of our project is to design a digital oscilloscope with 20 kHz bandwidth. The scopes that we use in ECE 4760 lab cost over one thousand dollars. The motivation of our project is to produce an affordable, easy to make oscilloscope for students or other engineers who cannot afford to buy a

Introduction The Cornell University Autonomous Underwater Vehicle team (CUAUV) is an undergraduate engineering team that designs and builds a fully autonomous, robotic submarine. Over the past year, the team – of which both Manoj Lamba and Ian Wang are members – has had a stringent policy of testing the vehicle weekly at Cornell’s Teagle pool.

Introduction Our project measures the user’s skin conductance for monitoring his or her mental state. Summary Medical experiments have shown that the magnitude of the electrical conductance in a person’s skin is directly correlated to their emotional state. The short term changes in electrical conductances also correlate with a person’s mental response. We implemented an

Introduction Our project is a UPC-A Barcode Scanner complete with a pricing/description database interface. Our original goal for this project was to build a standard barcode scanner from scratch, but as the project evolved so had to our specification of the project. We initially sought to build a charge-coupled device (CCD) scanner, which scans the

Introduction Our project was a real-time weather update system that accepted an airport code from the user via a keyboard, looked up the code on an internet database, and displayed the resulting weather information on a television screen. We used the PS/2 protocol, between a standard keyboard and an Atmel Mega32 chip, to decode the

Introduction Low-Cost Turbidity Meter for Underdeveloped Countries Our project is a collaboration with an independent research project being conducted by senior civil and environmental engineering student James Berg. The goal of this project is to create a low cost turbidity meter for use in under developed countries. Real laboratory turbidity meters can cost over $1000.Our

By: Kris Young and Dan Li See the results section for movie clips of the motion capture system in action. Abstract Human-Computer interface may perhaps be both the most limiting and liberating aspect of humans working with computers.It can, for instance, limit the input complexity to the system or may, alternatively, provide a great range

I.Introduction Soundbyte:A Wireless Data Telemetry system that receives acceleration, proximity and external temperature data from a remote vehicle and displays them on an NTSC television screen. The rationale behind this project is to provide the user with information regarding the vehicles acceleration, proximity to other stationary objects, and external temperature. The information gathered would be
