Overview of System Design

IoT Hand Gesture Video Control

Introduction In this project, we designed and implemented a system that will utilize light & shadow and relative distance to to recognize the single hand gesture in the air and use different gestures as commands like volume up or speed up to control a video playing. While using keyboard keys to control videos can sometimes […]

JDM2 PIC Programmer

JDM2 based PIC Programmer

JDM2 based PIC Programmer Schematic & layout for an updated JDM2 PIC Programmer. Includes clock & data filter, Vpp voltage divider for modern PIC microcontrollers (eg USB PIC 18F2455/4455). Prior to reading sites like www.hackaday.com & www.makezine.com/blog I had worked only with the Amtel/AVR line of microcontrollers. After seeing all the cool projects people were […]

Traffic Light Controller

Traffic Light Controller using pic microcontoller

1.a  History: The first single-chip microprocessor was the 4-bit Intel 4004 released in 1971. With the Intel 8008 and more capable microprocessors available over the next several years. These however all required external chip(s) to implement a working system, raising total system cost, and making it impossible to economically computerize appliances.   The first computer […]

Wooden LED clock

Wooden LED clock using PIC16LF876A microcontroller

Wooden LED clock I really like concept. So many different types of wooden clock have been already built. I’ve seen many of them but I still don’t have my own. What a shame. I’m going to fix it right now. Project is very simple and requires only few common wooden materials and hand tools. Well, […]

Automated Ice Cream Topper

Introduction Controlled by a PIC 32, the automated ice cream topper stores individual ice cream topping preferences, outputting the user’s ideal solid, liquid, and whip cream topping amount with the push of a button. Our project demo can be viewed here: Project Demo. The automatic ice cream topper as demoed had three basic topping capabilities that […]

Analog to Digital Converter

Bluetooth Wireless Voltage Meter using PIC12F683 microcontroller

Bluetooth Wireless Voltage Meter using Wiimote + Pic Chip + AutoIt In this tutorial I’m going to be showing you how you can send voltage values to your pc using a Pic chip, Wiimote, and Autoit3 scripting language. The process works by wiring a pic chip to the button pads of a wiimote. Then using […]

Audio spectrum analyzer on PIC32

Audio spectrum analyzer on PIC32 using pic microcontoller

This simple audio spectrum analyzer is based on PIC32 proto board on PIC32MX360F512L with 320×240px colour LCD (LVC75Z779 Eval Board).  The analyzer can be connected to unamplified audio source like PC’s sound card, MP3 player and so on. SSD1928 Module Schematic diagram The reference voltage of ADC is set to 1V with potentiometer connected to […]
