Am not sure if dis is d right forum for ma topic........

.......So we can talk d biz part of it for those that are interested in d project.

Before I continue with d construction, lemme add the practical application of dis project.......
1) The project can be deployed in industries and used to monintor hazardous operations and control them.
2) The project can also be used in hotel management. The hotel managers can use it turn off some electrical devices (tv, acs etc) when a customer time expires and d customer refuses to pay for his continue stay(NB politicians does dis a lot). And the device can also be used to eventually lock the door without collecting d key from d customer(though d customer may still have his own key but can't open d door). All these are done wireless using d control PC.

Now this how I constructed the device......
PROGRAMMING
I wrote ma codes using mikro c cos it has many library functions for most PIC operations.
I wrote d code in such that each time a command(character) is received in the serial port of my controller, it performs any of the following fuctions
It sets a particular port on
Or turns off a particular port
Or read the ports to know which one is on or off and send it back to the PC.
Note that relays are attached to the ports in d micro controller. And each time a relay is on, the electrical device connected to d relay is turned or off vice versa.
Also, i defined d following characters(note d characters are ASCII)............
No 1 to 8 to turn ports
9 to turn on all ports at once
0 to turn off all ports at once
A to g to turn off each port.......
Any other undefined character when sent to d micro controller will return error...


To be contd.......

Used d following.....
PIC16f887 micro controller
RF module for my wireless serial transmission
Router
Hyper terminal
Serial port
Mikroe C compiler

I ll give a brief description of how my stuff works and the materials I used...........

Otuabaroku: @Dondbuzor, let's talk about your project as it sounds interesting.Did you program it in C. If i understand the project, you can access any electrical device via internet and control them with your controller. How did you go about the interface between the equipment and the controller. What communication protocol did you use? How also did you go about the data acquisition? I have a lot questions I would want ask, if you don't mind. I'm looking forward hearing from.

E clear say na only computer science and programmers full dis forum. Cos am yet to meet a computer Engineer; in quote!

Which reader did u used in ur primary school cos its obvious u lack comprehension skill. Which place in d article did clinton apologised to d muslem world?

Chubhie: This is the right thing to do....oya hand over the person behind the movie to the islamic world and let him face the music so as to make an example of people who insults other peoples belief systems.... I commend the white house for taking the right step and urge my fellow muslims brothers to let the case rest.

To get the ball rolling, lemme talk about the recent project I did on embedded system.
I call it WIRELESS ELECTRICAL CONTROL SYSTEM
With this device, you can access the electrical devices(on d location where it is installed) from the internet; to check which electrical equipment(like fan, ac, tv etc) is on or off. Also from the internet, you can turn on or turn off any of the electrical equipment.

U speak like patience jonathan. Are u guys related in any way?

2gbasky22: but this will nt affect the price o garri and grandnut in the market nw


@op.....but seriously this protest i meaningless cos 90% o those presting, has not even watched the film in question.

Jst becouse of an ordinary film these guys ar killing people and burning down houses.......RELIGION OF PEACE!!!!!!!!!

SMH

I tot we ve computer engineers in nairaland.

Let techy savy embedded system designers come out and let's talk in mico controllers and C.

Let's discuss embedded systems. Let all computer engineers in dis forum, let's come out and discuss on d projects we have designed, our challenges and success.
.......

Hope not wot am thinking. Does it mean there are no computer engineers in nairaland. Or I posted d topic under d wrong forum

I personally has worked on wireless control system from d internet.
My device when installed in a particular location, one can access it from d internet and then use it to turn off electrical equipment like fans, tv, ac's etc.
I used PIC16f887 and wrote my codes in C using basically codes from mikro C library.
And used RF module for wireless serial communication between my micro controller and the control PC.
I used hyper terminal to access serial port but I ll use VB application when I deploy the system for public use.
..............
U can add urs to keep d thread moving

Let's us all come out on dis thread to discuss embedded systems.

After a while, I have come to fall in love with embedded systems.
Some of us may ask what is embedded system?
Simply put, embedded systems are mostly control systems involving micro controllers.
Examples of embedded systems
Wireless control systems for electrical devices
Gps tracking systems
RF demobilisers.
You can add to d list. Especially d ones you have personally worked on.

Thread closed!

U took it rom ma mouth

Novice1: He talks without coherence. Typical street education

Don't mourn her yet, its just a rumor. Or I guess that's ur prayer, that our first lady dies in d office. God forbid

Sun of god: So Dr Madam Patience is dead?

Na Wa Ohh . . . . she was an 'entertaining' first lady.

She'll be missed . . .

Kobojunkie: ^^ No dey mention that university at all.

Y naa. Wetin do d uni?

Hope its not gonna be a one off day thing!
Nice one, but ll make more sense if its continued(though I receive constant news headline on ma Bbm).

If buhari is sensible enough which obviously he's not, I guess wot should preoccupy your mind is d security challenge facing your ppl in d north and not 2015 election which is more than 2yrs away.
I forgot he's a mallan and obviously he's thinking won't be any better than his fulani cattle rearing brothers.

yyyyyyyy. Not again. Moderators front page pls

Let's d name keep com'n up. Finally we ll be surprised whom d real boko sponsors are.

Islam$ sucks. All muslims are potential terrorist. Imagine d plight of that little boy. If I must, islam is a religion for d deluded minds.
I rest ma case

U imbe.cillic northerner. So u mean ppl should relinquish their lands to fulani hardsman for grazing. They re not even talking about buying d land.

ndu_chucks: Uncivilized people, who have been brainwashed to believing that they are superior to fellow Nigerians, simply because the said fellow citizens are nomads, are exposing themselves again. You people on the one hand cry all over NL that you are being marginalized and cheated e.t.c, and on the other hand you want to deny your fellow citizens equal rights under the law. SMH @ ignoramuses

@op u re 15 and u re proud that u ve a boy friend, engaging in reckless and unprotected sex and u re here spewing shi.t.
To make matters worse, u re not even doing it with children of ur age but with an older adult, old enough to be ur uncle.
I don't blame, rather I blame d society u found ur self in.

She has always being and is still beautiful regardless of addition ir subtraction of weight.
