Knight Rider Light computer version 2 Schematic

Knight Rider Light computer – version 2

This knight rider light computer is a successor of my first version of the Knight Rider. This version is much smaller and justifies the use of a microcontroller. The project is based on the PIC 12F629 microcontroller. The hardware part Unlike my previous project this light computer is build around the PIC12F629: a microcontroller with […]

RGB REMOTE

RGB REMOTE (pinguino+web+linksys) using PIC18F2550 microcontroller

RGB REMOTE (pinguino+web+linksys) This project has several uses, it is basically a way to control an RGB LED group (tricolor with common ground) via a web page to select which color we want to show. It may be a way to harmonize a room, change the color of a swimming pool or just fooling aroun […]

Cheap PIC Programmer Schematic

Cheap PIC Programmer

This programmer works only with PIC16F84 but it’s great because it never causes errors and works with almost all computers,unlike some other homemade programmers. Step 1: Step one : Materials For this programmer you won’t need many materials.In fact , you will find all you need in your local electronics shop 😉 So here’s what […]

Microcontroller controlled Home Entertainment System1

Microcontroller controlled Home Entertainment System

This Instructable will take you on my journey to replace my old Netflix/Vudu Bluray player with a PC based entertainment station for my LCD projector. I wanted to be able to access and control Netflix, Hulu, Youtube, Crackle, NBC, ABC, and the Weather Channel using only a simple remote control. Along the way, I’ll give […]

Easy Way to Design an Automatic Driverless Train Schematic

Easy Way to Design an Automatic Driverless Train

Every one in the metro cities like Kolkata, Delhi enjoying the luxuries of the metro train ever spared a thought about the train? No, then let me give you a brief idea about the driverless automatic driven and controlled train. But before that let us have a brief recall about types of metro automation. The […]

PIC12F675 external interrupt

PIC12F675 external interrupt code and Proteus simulation

This post provides the external interrupt code for PIC12F675 microcontroller (e-g when you need to control servo motor which has position encoder, with your PIC microcontroller). As we know, PIC12F675 microcontroller has one GP2/INT pin, which can be used to service external interrupts. This code is written in C language using MPLAB with HI-TECH C compiler. You […]

Video Clock

Video Clock Superimposer using PIC16C711

About the Project As a followup to my VCR Pong project, here is a gadget that is actually useful in the Real World! It superimposes the time of day, in “HH MM SS” format, in the bottom right-hand corner of an existing video signal. My friend Scott uses it with his home security system. In […]
