Nowadays, parents are perturbed about school going children because of the increasing number of cases of missing students. On occasion, students need to wait a much longer time for arrival of their school bus. There exist some communication technologies that are used to ensure the safety of students. But these are incapable of providing efficient services to parents. This paper presents the development...
Microcontroller ARM Cortex M4 has many features and advantages that can be used for embedded applications and mobile robot development. With many of the features that make programming for this type of microcontroller more complicated and requires a long initialization. Therefore this research aims to build a library to facilitate the making of a mobile robot. The library is built on open source IDE...
A library design is presented aimed to standardize C language programming on microcontroller-based platforms. This library defines a simplified Application Programming Interface (API) that abstracts the most common modes of use of typical peripherals found in current microcontrollers in the marketplace. In this way, it becomes possible to program them with no need of knowing details on the underlying...
The present paper presents the hardware and software structure of a programmable driver for DC micromotors. The driver was designed and built for easy integration into a muti axis motion system. The driver is implemented using an 8-bit RISC microcontroller with high performances, but with a low cost price. The main function of the driver is to generate a PWM signal according to its drive voltage in...
In this paper, we present a practical power-analysisbased attack on KCipher-2 software implemented on microcontrollers. The key idea of the proposed attack is to exploit aspecific Hamming weight (HW) leakage from low-end microcontrollers or to skip a specific part of the software sequence by a fault injection on low-end microcontrollers in addition toa conventional power analysis available for KCipher-2...
This paper explains the design of low cost multi-channel Data Acquisition (DAQ) hardware based on serial communication. The paper puts forward an overall scheme of the system involving the hardware and software design. The hardware design is based on microcontroller (AT89C51) and uses key ADC chip (ADC0808) to realize the acquisition of multichannel analog signals and software design is the implementation...
During an embedded system software development, the process of upgrading and downloading the software to the system hardware is fairly easy, because the platform is not encapsulated on its final production form yet. Hence, when the product is ready to be shipped to the end user, an ISP (in-system programming) to upgrade software is needed to add a new feature or to fix a bug. A certain microcontroller...
This paper concerns with the design and implementation of a microcontroller based PID controller for the purpose of controlling PMDC motor speed. The design had been done using MATLAB and Simulink and the system then simulated using Proteus, in addition to a practical physical system. The controller was implemented on an Arduino Uno board to control the speed of the motor at a desired value with the...
Treadmill training is an innovative rehabilitation method for patients with locomotor dysfunctions. In the lower extremity rehabilitation systems, the treadmill speed is restricted to a constant value or adjusted by the therapist. Speed of the treadmill is normally kept constant by controlling the speed of DC servomotors because of its wide usage in many applications from industrial to medicine and...
Electro Mechanical Miniature Circuit Breaker (MCB) has been introduced under LT Protection Scheme since 1910 for protection against short circuit faults. In the present days a good number of areas have been explored on intelligent circuit breakers like AI incorporated Vacuum Circuit Breaker, SF6, and LV DC Breaker and so on. The aforesaid breakers are single port based and for a single load. In this...

The paper investigates the applicability of the Model based Hardware in the Loop (HIL) design approach in exploring suitable algorithm and then the realization of the algorithm on a variety of hardware platforms...
This paper presents the implementation of neural network based on Arduino Uno R3 microcontroller for energy saving of electric kettle in the office. The neural network uses back propagation technique and levenberg-marquardt algorithm for learning and training. The day and usage time of electric kettle are inputs for learning and training until the neural network can predict and control the operation...
The ability of monitoring a laboratory scale power system is crucial for research and educational purposes. This paper proposes the development of a low-cost real-time platform for monitoring a laboratory scale power system. The design and development of this novel monitoring system is based on a TMS320F28335 microcontroller of Texas Instruments. The microcontroller reads voltage and current measurements...
Multiple Outputs Programmable Integrated Circuits (MOPICs) trainer for educational applications is fabricated based on unsatisfactory usage of PIC simulation which is not able to achieve the learning outcome especially in enhancing leaner's hands-on skill through circuit designing, connection and trouble shooting. Current PIC programming is done through computer simulation, cause the leaners facing...
Now-a-days, the sales centres are using Digital Weighing Machines (DWM) for precision measurement of weight, acquisition of rate from keypad and computation of cost. The weight, rate and cost are shown on 7-segment bright display devices. The implementation of a DWM can be carried out using various types of hardware topologies and accordingly the cost varies. The FPGA based DWM is the most competitive...
Angkutan Kota (angkot) is one of public transport that often used by citizen in Bandung. But, there's still a lot of citizen that use private vehicle instead of using public transportation like angkot. This is due to the services provided by public transport hasn't been satisfactory. Therefore, to improve the service of angkot, angkot's payment system should be improved by making a payment standard...
In this work a review of the more outstanding contributions, carried out in the automatic control context, that deal with the trajectory tracking task in autonomous wheeled mobile robots (WMR) by using an embedded system is presented. In this direction, with the intention of describing an embedded system, some definitions of such a system and also the parts integrating it are introduced. The contributions...
In computer science, for embedded field only two types of microcontrollers exists, that can be used to develop a working system. You can use a single core or a multicore which is much faster but will not be the equivalent of a single core multiple with the numbers of cores, because a small part from the power will be used for inter process communications. Our approach is a little bit different because...
This paper describes a sign to letter and voice converter (S2LV). The S2LV aims at eliminating the barriers in communications between people who have disabilities, and those who don't. The S2LV is a smart talking glove which can be used by any deaf and/or mute person regardless of his/her age/gender. It is affordable, portable and light in weight. The S2LV is designed to detect the motions of the...
