Introduction This project implements a system that translates Morse Code to text and speech and translates text to Morse Code. With our limited experience with Morse Code, our first task was to do some research on the components of Morse Code and the standards associated with it. After we familiarized ourselves with Morse Code, our […]

Introduction Many digital artists draw with mice on computer or use tablets. However, tablets are often very expensive. Using the mouse is not always as accurate and one needs a steady hand. Our project attempts to create a lower budget alternative to the tablet that is easier to draw with. We use a stack of

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.

The purpose of this project was to take a traditional remote controlled car and create our own control mechanisms. To control the car, we used a dual-axis accelerometer and LEDs (light emitting diodes) configured as photo-detectors. The control mechanism was selected using a single pole dual throw (spdt) switch was wired in a single pole

Introduction A spotlight that follows you on its own! The ultrasonic spotlight tracker is a system that uses a wireless beacon to track a targets location using both RF signals and ultrasound waves. It then drives a light source to point at the location of the target. High Level Design The motivation for an

Introduction The objective of this project was to build a keyboard based on capacitive sensors and then use the MCU to create MIDI encodings for all notes played. The output from the sensors is detected by the MCU using its ADC capability. The sound is played directly by the MCU via a piezo speaker using

Introduction Objective The goal of this project is to design a useful and fully functional real-world product that efficiently translates the movement of the fingers into the American Sign Language. Background The American Sign Language (ASL) is a visual language based on hand gestures. It has been well-developed by the deaf community over the past

I. Introduction Simply write; your computer will undersand! We have designed and implemented a Handwriting Recognition System using a touch screen from a Palm Pilot m125, a black and white TV and a Mega32 microcontroller. Unfortunately, due to the lack of specifications regarding the built-in LCD on the Palm Pilot, we were unable to reverse

Introduction The goal of our project was to develop a remote control whose buttons would be readily programmable by recording the signal from another remote control. After revising several standards on infrared signals, we determined that the approach to take was to record the signal by determining the width of the transitions in the waveform,

Introduction Our project is a digital stethoscope that displays your heartbeat on any television. It also calculates beats per minute and alerts you if your rate falls out of a specified range. At the highest level, the design of our project centers around an acquisition circuit, data processing in two MCUs, and the output on
