The RS232 Data Logger is entirely a software solution to log data using the ATmega169 AVR Butterfly The unit is used side by side with existing products or your homemade projects which has UART capability but it is not able to store much data for an extended time duration. AVR Butterfly has UART and [...]
Shakemote is A Battery-less muscle-powered remote control for TVs, DVD, Air Conditioner and other electronics device that use remote control. The power generator design is similar to the ones used in muscle-powered generators torches. It consists of two main parts: a voltage generator and a voltage regulator.
This ATmega16-based project implements and demonstrates an interface which supports up to 3 moderately precise non-contact XY sensors, 3 low resolution rotational sensors, and 9 switches using a simple protocol on a single communications channel. It was developed primarily to provide low cost and easily implemented sensors for homebrew robotics projects. The project is [...]
The Plant Minder manages the watering process for an indoor plant. It monitors the moisture content of the soil using several capacitive sensors, and controls the speed and running time of a low volume pump to drip-water the plant from a water reservoir. It automatically adapts the pump run time to the soil conditions, which [...]
The project will show you how to build an advanced motor control with high speed communication, encoder feedback and automatic control with AVR ATmega16 microcontroller. Analyzing motor feedback is the most important task in a motor control and therefore, the project, which is designed by Rickard Haglund & Lars Carlsson, use two Atmel AVR [...]
Morse Beacon is small transmitter that can send flight telemetry to earth from a small balloon or model plane like temperature and battery voltage, Call Sign identification and a sequence number for logging purposes. The design is made around an ATtiny13 microcontroller, a LM35 centigrade temperature sensor (or LM34 Fahrenheit), a RF module, and few [...]
This ATmega32-based compact mail client project is easy-to-use and provides all the basic functionality you need to communicate via electronic mail. The project named as MiniEmail has a special stand-by mode in which it checks for new mail on a regular basis and alerts you in case new mail has arrived. Its intention is to [...]
