Manual switching of outdoor lights in houses or roadways can be sometimes really inconvenient especially when we are far away or still at work. Sometimes this becomes an opportunity for thieves to infiltrate houses or a possibility of accident in roadways if night comes and our outdoor lights are still OFF. That is why the …
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 …

This is an automatic “monitor brightness controller” based on environmental light conditions. This system use USB port base sensor unit to measure the light level and control monitor brightness accordingly. We design this system to reduce the eye stress by matching the monitor brightness with environmental lighting. The sensor unit of this system is build …
The design uses the PIC18F series microcontroller. All the control functionalities of the system are built around this. Upgradeability is the unique feature of this system. Control card hardware and software allows the manufacturer to add or remove the features as per customer requirement and model. Thus once the whole system is designed it is …
The 230 V, 50 Hz is step downed using voltage transformer and current transformer is used to extract the waveforms of current. The output of the voltage transformer is proportional to the voltage across the load and output of current transformer is proportional to the currentG‚throughG‚the load. These waveforms are fed to Voltage Comparators const …

Description This circuit can be used to operate an electric strike or an electromagnetic lock on a door. It is not the door being opened/closed, but a small electromagnetic strike which unlocks the door. The opener has the following features currently programmed in software: automatic operation when a guest pushes the doorbell, the strike is …
Automatic door locks are becoming popular in industry and many companies and industries are using automatic door locks systems for the safety of their rooms. They are popular in banks. Banks use automatic lock systems to keep security of their money stored in a single room. These automatic door lock systems are also used in …

The first question I often get about this creation is “Why?.” The answer is quite simple, I am an engineering student at Stony Brook University. We play a game on campus called “Humans vs. Zombies.” That fact coupled with my over competitiveness, and my drive to engineer things most people wouldn’t is what ultimately spawned …
