The goal of the project is to build automatic home blinds system. The controller will open the blinds at first light and close them at sunset. If the sunlight becomes too excessive the blinds will partially close to protect the furnishings in the home. If the heat becomes too great the blinds will partially [...]

The goal of the project is to use a microcontroller to regulate some larger household like home thermostat. The project will control the space heater to keep environment temperature is maintained near a desired set point temperature. By using a USB interface, the project can be controlled using Windows application. The system uses PIC18F252 [...]

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, [...]

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 [...]

This AVR Atmega16-based rocket controller is designed to be used in water rockets (or any other type of rocket for that matter). The rocket controller allows the rocket’s performance to be logged (altitude, accelerations), and provides control of the parachute deployment system. Altitude is measured using a pressure sensor device. While acceleration is measured using [...]

This low-cost ATmega32-based balancing scooter can carry 90 kg at a speed of 15 km per hour over a distance of 10 km. The project uses “dynamic stabilization” for control. The project is equipped with a Gyro (Sensor for the angle rate), an acceleration Sensor ADXL311, a microprocessor AtMega32 and high power electric motors together [...]

This project is built to controls a Neonatal Artificial Bubble (BAN, Burbuja Artificial Neonatal). The real-time embedded system software can simultaneously control all of the environmental variables such as temperature, relative humidity, and oxygen. The system is built around microcontroller AVR AT90CAN128.
