Introduction The Juicer is a wirelessly controlled, programmable juice maker which will mix each ingredient of a recipe to the exact proportions every time. The Juicer will take a recipe selection serially via either the keyboard or the wireless remote and dispense the juices into the cup below. Force and Photo sensors are incorporated to […]

Color TET Brief DescriptionThe project is a color “Tetris” based game compatible with NTSC TV. Summary and motivationThe project basically utilizes a Mega32 chip, along with a RGB-NTSC converter and a sync generator to produce color on a standard NTSC TV. The code for a “Tetris” type game is then written using the AVR CodeVision

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 Our project consisted of an elementary eight neuron network that used Hebbian Learning to train a robot to respond intelligently to input light stimuli. First, we decided upon a task that would accurately denote Hebbian learning. One of the most common examples of conditional learning such as Hebbian learning is seen in Pavlovs experiment

Introduction This project implements a wireless surface electromyograph that displays the signal using a television as an oscilloscope. Electromyography detects the electrical signals that the human body generates to contract muscles. Detecting very low voltages in the milliVolt range on the skin surface is not a trivial task. As shown in figure 1, EMG signals

1. Introduction For our final project we built an ATmega32 based stepper motor controller which measures the angular position of the motor shaft using an optical encoder and quadrature decoder. Our system performs 3 basic functions: (1) Communicate with a PC by means of a RS-485 interface, and (2) Generates step and direction signals for

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

Introduction Consider you are in a research lab that handles highly hazardous material. You don’t want anybody to enter the room, to even come close to the door. Or consider yourself doing something highly confidential in a room that you would like to know if someone is trying to get in. In all these cases,
