For our design project, we decided to replicate the video game known as Scorched Earth: The Mother of All Games where two tanks fire missiles at one another by adjusting angles and power while adjusting for variable wind. The objective of Scorched Earth is to destroy the enemy tank before your tank is destroyed. Two […]

Introduction For my ECE 476 Design Project, I built Missile Command using the Atmel Mega 32 microcontroller. My version of Missile Command is based on Ataris 1981 version. After looking at some of the past ece476 final projects, I noticed no one had tried to build Missile Command. This game was one of my favorites

Intro Summary Thinking about what a CDE (culminating design experience) should be, we devised a project that combines the microcontroller programming principles learned in ECE 476: Microcontroller Design with the control theory concepts learned in ECE 472: Feedback Control Systems to create an academically viable stationary helicopter. The device consists of a lever with a

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 Our project is an autonomous toy car that tracks a high pitched audio signal. Using two microphones, a microcontroller, and two DC motors on an existing remote controlled car and, we implemented our own control logic to detect high pitched 3.5kHz audio signals and drive the car. This project consists of both software

We have designed a programmable infrared receiver which can utilize any pulse coded IR signal to play Connect Four from a remote distance. The programmable infrared receiver device we have created can decode any pulse-width modulated signal of an IR remote control, store it in non-volatile memory, and then recognize that signal again the next
