Project Description |
|
1 |
Develop a USB PC shutdown system – the system will be a USB powered device that would check whether the main power supply is okay. If the power supply is gone for 2 minutes (Computer running on UPS), the device will send command via USB to shut down the computer. (Helpful reference: https://www.obdev.at/products/vusb/index.html) |
|
2 |
Develop a greyscale image display system using LED dot Matrix blocks. The pixel intensities should be varied using Pulse Width Modulation technique. (Helpful reference: https://www.8051projects.info/blogs/post/8051-single-chip-pulse-width-modulation-%28PWM%29-brightness-control-of-LED-lights.aspx, https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=6dOG_tXyEmc, https://waitingforfriday.com/index.php/Controlling_LED_brightness_using_PWM, https://www.best-microcontroller-projects.com/led-dot-matrix-display.html ) |

4 |
Develop a chromatic digital tuner for musical instruments using microcontroller. The tuner should input audio signal from a microphone and automatically detect which note is being played and how approximately how much flat or sharp the note is. (Helpful reference: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Electronic_tuner, https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pitch_(music), Example implementation: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=k-untiptjsY ) |
