AGRO ELECTRONICS SYSTEM:

Appropriate environmental conditions are necessary for optimum plant growth, improved Crop yields, and efficient use of water and other resources. Automating the data acquisition process of the soil conditions and various climatic parameters lead to plant growth to collect information at high frequency with less labour requirements.

      In order to prevent dry running of motor and allow automatic restart of motor, sufficient water level is regained. Whenever water falls below LL level, micro-controller switches OFF the motor and sends SMS indicating dry running conditions. When the water rises beyond HL level, the micro-controller switches ON the motor again and sends sms indicating resumption of task. User need to go again and again and check the water level, he will get the alerts automatically whenever water is below the HL level.
       In order to ensure maximum reliability, one temperature sensor is mounted on body of motor to measure ambient temperature whenever temperature difference exceeds to specified safety limit, it sends the signal to switch OFF pump. We are using soil moisture sensor placed at the plants to know how much water content is present in the field
      Generally frequent power cuts and insufficient rains at various stages of growth are one of major causes of losses to farmers. Many farmers use induction motor pumps to irrigate their farms from wells. In this application, GSM modem receives any incoming text message directly and sends  any outgoing text message of micro-controller directly to designated cell phone number without being stored in control system cell phone memory.

Wireless Automatic Meter Reading System for Power Measurement, Load Control and Billing

Wireless Automatic Meter Reading System for Power Measurement, Load Control and Billing:   Introduction Due to use of  improper power management systems, the power requirement is increasing in the development of country’s economy. Over the past years, metering devices have improved a lot, and are expected to become even more advanced, offering more and more services. Meters in the past were electro-mechanical devices with poor accuracy and lack of ability. Recent developments in this direction seem to provide opportunities in implementing energy efficient metering  technologies that are more precise and accurate, error free, etc. The implementation of Wireless Automatic Meter Reading System(WAMRS) provides with many vital features as compared with the analogue utility meter reading with man power. Working of WAMRS: WAMRS provides a two way communication between the electricity company and the load by sending in a lot of power parameters and control s...

Voice and GSM Alert Based Home Security System

Voice and GSM Alert Based Home Security System: Introduction: Home security in India has been a major issue, because day by day crime rate is increasing and everybody wants to take proper actions to prevent this crime rate. In addition, there was a need to take the advantage of the technological advancement to automate home so that a person getting off the office does not feel insecure. The project is aimed at developing the security of Home against Intruders , Gas Leak and Fire . If any of these cases happen while your are outside the home, this  Voice and GSM Alert Based Home Security sends SMS to the emergency number provided to it. User can also add unique voice based alert feature in order to provide voice alert to watchman or nearby houses. Block Diagram: Project Description:   In this project we interfaced 8051 microcontroller with Motorola’s C168 GSM mobile phone to decode the received message. The protocol used for the communication between th...

Three Phase Inverter for BLDC Motor Drive

Three Phase Inverter for BLDC Motor Drive Introduction Brushless DC Motor or the BLDC Motor is a rotating electric motor consisting of stator armature windings and rotor permanent magnets whereas in a conventional brushed DC motor the stator is made up of permanent magnets and rotor consists of armature windings. The conventional DC motor commutes itself with the use of a mechanical commutator whereas brushless DC motor needs electronic commutation for the direction control of current through the windings Industries using three phase devices like induction motors suffer a lot from the menace of power instability and have invested a lot in alternative means like the power generators which has many disadvantages like noise and other forms of pollution. The main objective of this three phase inverter project is to have Industries using three phase devices like induction motors suffer a lot from the menace of power instability and have invested a lot in alternative means lik...
