Advanced Voltage Monitoring and Protection via Microcontrollers and Proteus VSM

ABSTRACT This project designed an embedded system using a microcontroller to monitor the amplitude of the main voltage supply and disconnect it if it increases or decreases outside of a predefined required voltage range (RVR). The system also aims to automatically reconnect the supply once the voltage returns to the RVR. This protective functionality is […]

Prototype of our Thermistor Respiratory Monitor

Thermistor Respiratory Monitor

The concluding assignment in ECE 4760 involves the creation of a respiratory monitor tailored for use in resource-constrained settings. This device determines a patient’s respiration rate by identifying temperature fluctuations as the patient breathes through a mask. Notable attributes of this device encompass an alarm mechanism activated by a piezoelectric speaker, which triggers when the

HOW TO PROGRAM A MICROCONTROLLER

INTRODUCTION: In the ever-changing contemporary society, technology is not only progressing rapidly but also becoming increasingly prevalent in our day-to-day existence. The emergence of “intelligent” items is significantly transforming the way we design almost every conceivable product. From shoes integrated with chips that sync with our phones to monitor our physical activity, to refrigerators that

Glove Controller with PIC32 and LCD

Digital “Etch A Sketch” Glove

Introduction For our ECE 4760 final project, we designed, constructed, and tested a glove-operated system that dynamically simulates the classic toy, Etch A Sketch, on a TFT LCD screen. In deciding what to build, our team wanted to create a device that would utilize several of the technologies overviewed in the course, in a fun,

Real Time Stock Monitor

Introduction In this project, we demonstrate a real-time stock monitor that uses the popular ESP8266 Wi-Fi module controlled by a PIC32. We decided to build a fun device that fetches chosen stock prices in real-time and displays them on a screen. The goal was driven by a desire to create a PIC32 system that connects

Self-Balancing Robot

Introduction The inverted pendulum is an interesting case in the study of control systems because of its unstable nature. A pendulum is considered inverted when its center of mass is placed above its pivot point, meaning that its only equilibrium point is when its center of mass is directly above the pivot point. This is

Standard morphology of a cardiac electrical cycle

Single-Supply Portable ECG Monitor

Introduction The aim of this project was to produce a portable ECG monitor that displays the ECG signal of an Einthoven triangle configuration of electrodes (3 leads). The motivation of this project comes from the pervasiveness of cardiac problems in the world, which cause the highest number of death, as well as the relatively uncommon
