It's been a long time since there has been a project shared on our website. I want to thank Sharanjit Singh from Canada for sharing this project. Though the project seems very simple but its a great project who wants to get started with microcontrollers.

Automatic Railway Gate Control uses two IR sensors for detecting incoming train and when train has passed, based on that 8051 microcontroller makes simple decision to close or open the gate respectively. In the project model a L293D H-Bridge is used to control gates connected to a motor. Project design looks very neat and clean. You can see working video of the project below:



Project source code is written in assembly language. The download package includes source code, hex file and schematics.

Thank you guys for submitting this project.

Yet Another DTMF Controlled Robot

As simple as it sounds, This project is an 8051 based DTMF controlled robot. 8051 receives decoded DTMF tones from MT8870 DTMF decoder. The DTMF input is fed from a GSM phone. There are two motors on the robot which are controlled via dual H-Bridge motor driver L293D.

If you are just starting to learn microcontrollers then this is the project you should start with. It will help you understand the basic IO control in microcontrollers using embedded C.

DTMF controls are as follows:

On pressing '2' robot moved forward
On pressing '8' robot moved backward
On pressing '4' robot moved left
On pressing '6' robot moved right
On pressing '5' robot moved stop


The download package includes source code, hex file, schematics and a description document.

Simple 3 Digit Temperature Meter

This project is a simple temperature meter using LM35 analog sensor connected to PIC microcontroller PIC16F676. The temprature is displayed on 3 digit 7-segment display. Project code is written in C language for CSS compiler for PIC. Here are few things that you can expect to learn from this project:

1. Using Analog port of PIC Microcontroller
2. Interfacing LM35 temperature sensor
3. Interfacing 7-segment display
4. Multiplexing multiple 7-segment display

Simple yet so much to learn in this project. If you are a starting to learn microcontrollers then this is your project. The download package also includes a proteus simulation so you can modify and test this code before building the actual hardware.

I want to thank Rakesh Suthar for submitting this project. I hope to see more learning oriented project from him.

Download Package Content:

• main.c : Project C code
  
• main.hex : Hex file
  
• schematic.PDF : Schematic file
  
• lm35-temp-meter.pdsprj : Proteus simulation Project file

LED Scrolling message Display using 8051

This Project is a scrolling LED matrix display project using 8051 (AT89S52) controller and 24C16 EEPROM. This LED matrix project is designed to work flexibly to handle 1x18 matrices of 8x8 LEDs or 1 to 29 matrices of 5x7 LEDs. The total matrices support can go higher if a controller with higher RAM is used. You do not need to do any change in the program for that. There is also a software provided to upload your message from PC to EEPROM.

This project is submitted by Pratik Suthar of Government Engineering Collage, Dahod (Gujrat). I really want to thank him for his contribution to Rickey's World.

Now a working video of the project:
