Profile Solar light
Team:Uttam Bhat, Akhilesh Kashyap, Mervin Rosario
Abstract:
A device that tracks the intensity of sunlight received along the east-west axis. Implemented using
concepts of FSM, a stepper motor and a solar cell that generates power for the microcontroller to
record

Appliance controller
Team:Mukund Madhav, Devashish Gopalan, Aashimi Bhatia
Abstract:
To conserve energy usage in a room, the device keepts track of the number of people entering a room
using an IR detector and the microcontroller. When the first person enters, appliances (like
room lights, airconditioning etc) are turned on using AC relays. After the last person leaves,
the appliances are shut off automatically

Digital Combination Lock
Team:Prashant Suralkar, Vikash Choudhary, Akhilesh Khope
Abstract:
The device a digital combination lock which will take a sequence of inputs to unlock through 8 input
pins. Using these 8 pins as input we create the lock sequence. Later, the user has to enter the same
8-bit combination to unlock. 2^8 unique lock codes are possible.

Knock Knock Lock
Team:R Samanth Vinil, Ankit Agarwal, Debprotim Roy
Abstract:
The device a digital combination lock which will take a sequence of inputs to unlock through 8 input
pins. Using these 8 pins as input we can easily create a input sequence of a few steps entered by the
user using a sequence of knocks detected by a peizo transducer. The lock sequence is stored with
encoding of the time between individual knocks.
To unlock, the user has to tap the same tapping sequence.

Eyeglass Heads-up display
Team:Akshay Bedhotiya, Sachin A S, Pritish Godhra
Abstract:
The objective is to create a head-mounted wearable display that displays a sequence of words into
the field of vision of a person wearing it to communicate for example, captions to a hearing
impaired person or real-time language translations

Team:Gowtham Kumar, S. Ravikiran, A Yashwanth
Abstract:
A system that notifies you (for example by blinking an LED on your wristwatch) when you have new
GMail.

Laser Harp
Team:Prasad Bhandarkar, Sukhdeep Singh
Abstract:
A single laser beam scans back and forth at high speed using a stepper motor. An LDR
placed in the path of the beam acts as harp 'pluck' point.

Robotic Hand
Team:Satish Kokate, Rahul Dabhi, Srikar Kanuri
Abstract:
Accelerometers and tiltmeters mounted to a user's hand measure the hand motion. A separate
robotic hand made using servomotors mimics the movements of the user's hand

Stair Climbing Robot
Team:Suresh Pinkey, Makarand Diwe, Narendra Chouhan
Abstract:
A 6-wheeled (3 axles) robot that is able to climb stairs by catapulting itself around the central
axis

Speech Recognition system
Team:Raunak Sakhardande, Arun Ginjala
Abstract:
A voice ID system that relies on speech. Hardware and software filtering is used to present
the data to the microcontroller ADC. Comparison to unlock is done using Euclidean distance and
correlation

Hardware
All the above projects are implemented using the open-source Arduino microcontroller platform. The core is the Atmega168 16 MHz 8-bit microcontroller made by Atmel. It has 16 digital I/O lines and 6 I/O lines which makes it very easy to interface it to hardware (and a particular favorite among robotics hobbyists!)
