Measuring motor speed and display result on LCD using ATmega8 microcontroller

For measuring motos speed there can Optical interrupter used like H21A1. This is a device where IR LED and photo-transistor is coupled in to plastic housing. The gap between then allows interrupting signal with opaque material and this way switching the output from ON to OFF. This device can be connected to Microcontrollers ICP pin […]

IR Proximity Motor Control

Leave a Comment / News / Ibrar Ayyub

Here’s a Motor Control via Proximity Sensing. In this article, we go step-by-step through the process of understanding, designing and building a system that uses an infrared proximity sensor for input, correlates that input to how far away an object is from the sensor and then drives a motor and some LEDs at distinct speeds depending upon the proximity of the object.
