Remote Obstacle Finder | Raspberry-Pi.

            Obstacle detection is an important aspect in an Automotive and Automobile System. The basic obstacle detection is already done. Check here. Now, moving on to the next level. The detection and the range of the obstacle is identified remotely. Let us see how it works.

Hardware Required
  1. Raspberry-Pi ( Refer the first booting of pi here )
  2. HC-SR04 (Ultrasonic Module)
  3. WiFi Adapter (If R-pi2 is used)
  4. LED
  5. Hookups
  6. Protoboard

List of Hardware 



Software Required
      
          After booting up your Raspberry pi with Raspbian. The application software which is required to run the program is Python. Python is pre-installed in OS. If you did'n have it do the following. Open Terminal Window and type the following...
  • sudo apt-get update
  • sudo apt-get upgrade
  • sudo apt-get install python3-picamera
After setting up your Raspberry pi. Move to the Wiring of sensor and Pi.

Wiring Method 

         Connect the Sensor LED and the R-pi with the help of Hookups and protoboard as shown. 

Circuit Schematic

            After finishing the wiring. This body has to be soul with the help of python programming. The soul helps the body to work perfectly.

Being Soul the Body
         
              Python is an most effective and reusable programming which is having an advanced features than other languages.

Python (Editor & Execution Window)

            I make it easy for you. Just copy and paste the code in Editor window form here. Run the code to test it with the help of F5 key.

Remote Access
       
           Here is the best part of the project. The remote access of the system. You could access and run your program from PC, Smart phone or Tablet. All you need to do is connect your R-pi and your control device (PC, Smartphone or Tablet) in a same network with the help of WiFi Adapter.

For Android : Mobile SSH

For PC         : PuTTY

For Window's phone : SSH

For iOS : SSH

          Download and Install the compatible app for your device and connect your device as the same IP of your R-pi.

Here I showed example for Android Devices.

                                                                    Check your R-pi IP address

R-pi Window

Android device connection Method

Steps to be followed

Login with your own user name and password. Once the connection is established successfully, we need to run the python program which is already located in the system. For that type


python yourfilename.py


Execution of Program

Hardware Output

A2XWY; A2XFY Cables meaning; XLPE cables advantages over PVC cables

Technical Specification of Aluminum Cables in terms of codes So many times you have seen coding while specifying cables technical such as A2XWY now what does this means. Now there is nomenclature for the same which is used while describing the same. Where A -  Aluminium 2X- XLPE Insulation W – Steel round wire armour F- Steel Strip Armour WW- Double Steel round Armour FF- Double Steel Strip Armour Y- PVC outer Sheath Wa- Non Magnetic round wire Armour Fa- Non Magnetic Strip Armour AW- Aluminum Wire Armour Now As per A2XWY – This describes that it is Aluminum cable, XLPE insulated, With Steel round wire armour and having PVC outer Sheath. This coding is as per IS 7098(Part1):1988. You have also seen that there is coding for copper so there is no coding required in case of copper cables. XLPE cables advantages over PVC cables/ Thermoplastic cables:- 1.       XLPE cables have higher Power rating about 1.2 times PVC cables 2.       XLP...

Digital Multimeter working principle; DMM working

Image
Digital multimeters are most widely used in every industry as it used for measurement of Voltage, Current, Resistance, Capacitance and various other parameters. DMMs have been available for very several years. Yet it is still challenging to locate advice about how a digital multimeter works. The operation of a digital multimeter is comparatively uncomplicated, although there are obviously differences in how digital mulimeters work if they're from different makers.Despite this, there are several similarities and some general principles of how digital multimeters work. Fundamentals of how a DMM functions The key process occurring within a digital multimeter for any measurement is that of voltage measurement. All other measurements are derived from this basic measurement. So the best technique for understanding how a digital multimeter functions is in understanding this procedure. There are many kinds to digital converter, ADC. Nonetheless the one that is most widely used DMMs in di...

Wireless voltmeter using Arduino and RF 433MHz receiver and transmitter

Image
In this project i showed you how to make a wireless voltmeter using arduino and RF 433MHz receiver and transmitter. You can use this code and concept for many other projects, any project which used sensor with analog voltage output to sense temperature, gas leakage or light , etc. For example you can put a LM35 temperature sensor rather than potantiometer, you just have to putting its formula which convert LM35 output pin voltage to exact temperature. You also can make a wireless AC or DC power meter by doing some change in code and hardware (using hall effect current sensor and single phase voltage sensor). This type of RF module has distance range up to 200 meters according to datasheet but when i bought this RF module from Aliexpress its distance rang was very low, but i set its adjustable RF coil very carefully and i get very higher distance rang.(Don't play with RF coil if your module works good), You also have to use a 6 inch antenna to increase distance range to max as possi...
