Image Plotter

Introduction Our ECE 4760 final project was an image plotting system with high-level processing done in a MATLAB script we wrote and the low-level control software done on the PIC32MX250F128B microprocessor. Our MATLAB program takes images and extracts endpoints of line segments and sends the coordinates over to the PIC32 via UART serial communication. The …

MINIATURE ARCADE GAME COLLECTION

INTRODUCTIONBOIDS Our project leverages two potentiometers to create an “etch-a-sketch” type interactive device and arcade game collection. We wanted to create a fun game that uses much of what we learned previously in the course, including flocking simulation, hardware input though potentiometers, optimization, and graphic interface control. When the user first enters the program, they …

How to Use “MikroC PRO for PIC” to Program PIC Microcontrollers

How to Use “MikroC PRO for PIC” to Program PIC Microcontrollers

PIC microcontrollers are a very useful and versatile tool for use in many electronic projects. They are very inexpensive and easy to find. They are also very powerful and many are capable of speeds up to 64 MIPS using the internal oscillator block, about 16 times faster than most comparable AVR microcontrollers. PICs are also …
