Pic32 Oscilloscope

Introduction For this project, we constructed an oscilloscope using the PIC32. The inspiration for this project came from the oscilloscopes we used in lab throughout the semester. These oscilloscopes allowed people to view and understand the behavior of a circuit. Without oscilloscopes, many of the circuits we built in class would have been extremely difficult

Rubik’s Cube Solving Robot

Introduction Our project was creating a rubiks cube solving robot that utilized image processing, Kociemba’s algorithm, and servos acting as claws/arms to turn the cube. We had a goal of being completely self contained and would not need any human interaction after the initial cube placement. In order to achieve this, we needed a way

Constellation Glasses

INTRODUCTION: The Constellation Glasses allow you to find out what you are looking at in the night sky with the click of a button. On one side of the glasses, there is an accelerometer- magnetometer mounted, which allows us to determine the position of your head. In a separate box, connected to the glasses by

Groovy Times

Introduction  Our team being excited by the recent trend towards more active forms of entertainment, such as those provided by motion-control systems and virtual-reality headsets, set out to create a similar type of device. We were further inspired by the games Rhythm Heaven and Dance Dance Revolution, in which the different physical inputs made by the player worked

Automatic School Bell

Automatic School Bell

This project is an Automatic School bell system. Such a system triggers a bell (or operates any other load) at predifined time. In this version some advanced features are introduced: – 16×2 LCD Display ( Displays current date, time and day) – 4×4 Keypad for Inputs – Stand alone product ( no PC required to

The Cell Phone Drone

The Cell Phone Drone

The Mission We knew that this would be tough. There’s a reason all of the drones you see on sale today have four motors, and that’s because they’re naturally much more stable than a drone with two motors and they’re overall more fun and practical. However, quadcopters are still very unstable and could not be
