PIC MICROCONTROLLER BASED USB STORAGE

INTRODUCTION The primary objective of this project is to execute the USB protocol and manage the reading and writing of packets of various sizes within the memory of the Peripheral Interface Controller (PIC) microcontroller. Several test cases have been incorporated, which include: – Writing a single packet to the device – Reading and writing a

Breathe-Easy EEG

Introduction By measuring brain activity using electrodes and an amplifier circuit, electroencephalograms (EEGs) are at the intersection of electrical engineering and neuroscience. By using signal processing techniques, we can examine the effects of external stimulation, such as music and meditation, on brain waves. We primarily examined alpha and beta brain waves in our EEG. While

The Outlet Nanny

We designed a power monitor that could communicate with the PIC32 through UART to give both power and current readings for any device(s) (that use NEMA plugs) plugged into our box. These readings are then accessible on a website interface, on a graph. We chose to do this project because of the growing issue of

THE SKY WRITER

We created Skywriter because lightsabers are cool. Although we are fans, we are not passionate about the Star Wars franchise. However, we are passionate about the technology in Star Wars. For our final project, we wanted to replicate the futuristic lightsaber. And add a twist with persistence-of-vision. This project has been a great exercise in

One Pedal To Rule Them All

One Pedal To Rule Them All

Introduction Audio effects are used in nearly every recorded and live song across genres, whether its reverb being added to a vocalist or noise being filtered from a drum track. When used with guitars, they’re so ubiquitous that the interesting tones they create are often already associated with the instrument (like distortion), although they can

7 Segment Pov 16F84

This is a post about the POV ( Persistence of Vision ) Display that uses one 7 Segment display. In short, I made this little project as a proof of concept of something I ‘ve always noticed in many electronic devices those used 7 segment display. Devices like 7 segment display clocks and meters. In those devices, the 7 segment
