WiFi Controlled Robotic Vehicle Electronic Project Abstract

             This project is a robot vehicle that can be controlled through any computer wirelessly using a WiFi link. It transmits real-time video to the controlling computer using the same link. The video transmitting camera mounted on it. It also has obstacle detection,temperature,sound and light sensitivity feature.           Usually robots are controlled through a laptop using an WiFi link which is subject to attenuation, noise and has a very limited range as well. This project features a robot that uses WiFi 802.11G standard for its control signals through TCP/IP protocol, which has flow control. This enables uninterrupted and reliable transmission of control signal to the robot vehicle. WiFi support high data rates which enables good quality uninterrupted video transmission from the robot to the computer. Image capturing is done by mounting an IP-camera over the Robotic Car. Obstacle detection is done...

12 Volt Battery Guardian Project

Image
Don't get caught with a flat battery; this easy-to-build circuit can cut off the power to a 12V fridge or car stereo system if the battery voltages drops below critical level. Electric fridges in vans and 4WDs are a great idea but if you are not careful, they can severely discharge the battery and leave you stranded. Maybe the battery will end up with severe damage as well. The same problem applies if you have a big stereo system and you like to play it without the motor running. Main features: Cuts power to load (eg, fridge) when battery voltage drops below a preset level. 10A rating. Low power drain. Chirping sound during cut-out. Flashing LED indication during cut-out. Automatically reconnects power when battery recharged. Operation on 12V is fine when the motor is running and battery charge is maintained but if the fridge is allowed to run for too long when the motor is stopped, it can flatten the battery in a relatively short time. This is where the Battery Guardian comes into...

Project of Model Railway Short Circuit Beeper

Image
This is a project os Model Railway Short-Circuit Beeper Circuit Diagram . Short circuits in the tracks, points or wiring are almost inevitable when building or operating a model railway. Although transformers for model systems must be protected against short circuits by built-in bimetallic switches, the response time of such switches is so long that is not possible to immediately localise a short that occurs while the trains are running, for example. Furthermore, bimetallic protection switches do not always work properly when the voltage applied to the track circuit is relatively low.  Model Railway Short-Circuit Beeper Circuit Diagram The rapid-acting acoustic short-circuit detector described here eliminates these problems. However, it requires its own power source, which is implemented here in the form of a GoldCap storage capacitor with a capacity of 0.1 to 1 F. A commonly available reed switch (filled with an inert gas) is used for the current sensor, but in this case it is ac...

Audio Booster Circuit Diagram Project

Image
This is a simple Audio Booster Circuit Diagram Project . The amplifier's gain is nominally 20 dB. Its frequency response is determined primarily by the value of just a few components-primarily C1 and R1. The values of the schematic diagram provide a response of ±3.0 dB from about 120 Hz to better than 20,000 Hz.Actually, the frequency response is ruler flat from about 170 Hz to well over 20,000 Hz; it's the low end that deviates from a flat frequency response.  The low end's roll-off is primarily a function of capacitor C1(since RI's resistive value is fixed). If C1's value is changed to 0.1 pF, the low end's comer frequency-the frequency at which the low-end roll-off starts-is reduced to about 70 Hz. If you need an even deeper low-end roll-off, change C1 to a 1.0 pF capacitor; if it's an electrolytic type, make certain that it's installed into the circuit with the correct polarity, with the positive terminal connected to Q1's base terminal. Audio B...

Quality Stereo Wireless Microphone or Audio Link Project

Image
Quality Stereo Wireless Microphone or Audio . This stereo FM wireless microphone also makes a great quality audio link. We tested it to beyond 50 meters and it was rock solid. It’s certainly not the first wireless microphone we’ve ever published but this one is a little different. It’s stereo, providing surprisingly good quality sound. Second, it has a really good range. We tested it at well over 50m and it was still performing very well – noise-free, in fact – but at the time we couldn’t get our receiver any further away. So it’s likely to have even better range than that. Complete Project: It's easy to build, requires very little setup... and it's cheap! In fact, the low price might turn some people off, thinking it's low quality. Try it - and be pleasantly surprised! Third, it really is simple to build – the hard work (the transmitter module) is already done for you. It’s just a matter of assembling the microphone module, which contains the electret mics themselves, ...

Hofner Colorama II restoration project part 10 repairing the electronics

Image
Just like everything else on this vintage Hofner Colorama II, the electronics have been treated badly and need some attention. By “badly” I mean that they have been left in a damp or wet environment and the pots are scratchy or cut out completely. The output jack also needs to make better contact. This can hopefully all be fixed with the help of some electrical contact cleaner, but first I’m going to remove all the parts from the pickguard. This isn’t strictly necessary, but since I’m restoring the whole guitar, and the pickguard also needs attention, this is the route I’m going to take. Firstly, here’s the whole pickguard/electronics assembly. As mentioned in another post, the beauty of the Colorama is how the entire electronics circuit is attached to the pickguard and can be lifted out in one go: Here's how it looks from behind: The knobs are removed, revealing some rather disturbing evidence of damp. Check out that rust! Rather that turn the whole pot by accident when I’m unscre...

Electronic Alarm Project of Piezo with 555 Timer

Image
This is a very simple Electronic Circuit Project of piezo alarm circuit. Piezo alarm which will generate a sound around 110dB can be designed using this diagram. This Piezo alarm siren circuit diagram use some common components like 555 timer ic, you can use two 555 timer circuits or one 556 circuit. Electronic Alarm Project of Piezo with 555 Timer Circuit Diagram: This Piezo alarm siren circuit project use two piezo sounders with high efficiency and can be powered from a wide input voltage, between 5 and 15 volts. This circuit is very easy to build, maybe you will have a little trouble with the T1 and T2 auto-transformers. Both auto-transformers used in this project are the same type and require between pin 1and 2 1500 turns of 44 SWG wire and 220 turns between 2 an 3 using 40 SWgG wire. In this circuit the IC1:B closest to the piezo elements is set to oscillate around their resonant frequency. The frequency is then varied via input pin 11 from the other 555, IC1:A. This modulating in...

Electronic Simple Project For Two Transistor AM Radio Receiver

Image
Here is simple Electronic Circuit Project of two transistor AM radio receiver circuit. This two transistor AM radio circuit is also called “mini-radio”. It uses only 2 transistors and few passive components which makes is very easy to be constructed. Although the circuit is very simple, it functions very well without external antenna or ground connection. The transistor T1 works as a feedback regulated HF-amplifier and function as demodulator at the same time. The sensitivity of the receiver is dependent on the amount of feedback and can be adjusted by P1. Two Transistor AM Radio Receiver Circuit Diagram: The demodulated signal comes out from the collector of T1. The signal is then filtered by C3 so that only the audio signal will be amplified by T2. The amplified signal is then delivered to a high impedance “earphone”. The coil is 65 turns AM antenna wire around a 10 cm long x 10 mm diameter ferrite rod. The tap is at the fifth turn of the coil counting from its ground end. The coil ...

Balancing LiPo Cells Circuit project

Image
This is the Balancing LiPo Cells Circuit project. Things change fast in the electronics world, and that’s also true for recharge- able batteries. The rate of development of new types of rechargeable batteries has been accelerated by the steadily increasing miniaturisation of electronic equipment. LiPo cells have conquered the market in a relatively short time. Their price and availability have now reached a level that makes them attractive for use in DIY circuits. Unlike its competitors Elektor Electronics has already published several articles about the advantages and disadvantages of LiPo batteries. One of the somewhat less well-known properties of this type of rechargeable battery is that the cells must be regularly ‘balanced’ if they are connected in series. This is because no two cells are exactly the same, and they may not all have the same temperature. For instance, consider a battery consisting of a block of three cells. In this case the outer cells will cool faster than the ce...
