Synopsis For

“CELL PHONE OPERATED LAND ROVER”

INTRODUCTION: Radio control (often abbreviated to R/C or simply RC) is

the use of radio signals to remotely control a device. The term is used frequently to

refer to the control of model vehicles from a hand-held radio transmitter.

Industrial, military, and scientific research organizations make [traffic] use of

radio-controlled vehicles as well.

A remote control vehicle is defined as any mobile device that is controlled by a

means that does not restrict its motion with an origin external to the device. This is

often a radio control device, cable between control and vehicle, or an infrared

controller. A remote control vehicle (Also called as RCV) differs from a robot in

that the RCV is always controlled by a human and takes no positive action

autonomously.

One of the key technologies which underpin this field is that of remote vehicle

control. It is vital that a vehicle should be capable of proceeding accurately to a

target area; maneuvering within that area to fulfill its mission and returning equally

accurately and safely to base.

1.2 MOTIVATION AND PROPOSAL:

Conventionally, wireless-controlled robots use RF circuits, which have the

drawbacks of limited working range, limited frequency range and limited control.

Use of a mobile phone for robotic control can overcome these limitations. It

provides the advantages of robust control, working range as large as the coverage

area of the service provider, no interference with other controllers and up to twelve

controls. Although the appearance and capabilities of robots vary vastly, all robots

share the features of a mechanical, movable structure under some form of control.

The control of robot involves three distinct phases: reception, processing and

action. Generally, the preceptors are sensors mounted on the robot, processing is

done by the on-board microcontroller or processor, and the task (action) is

performed using motors or with some other actuators.

so the motive is that to increase the range of remote controlled products.for this

mobile phone operated control is best because we can globalize our project & no

limitation of range.

We proposed this project to the Electronics & Communication Department so as to

give a new direction to the above topic and to globalize the use of land rover with

very less noise interference.

1.3 AIMS AND OBJECTIVES:

The objective of our project is to control the robot by mobile phone. In this

project, the robot is controlled by a mobile phone that makes a call to the mobile

phone attached to the robot. In the course of a call, if any button is pressed, a

tone corresponding to the button pressed is heard at the other end of the call.

This tone is called ‘dual-tone multiple frequency’ (DTMF) tone. The robot

perceives this DTMF tone with the help of the phone stacked in the robot. The

received tone is processed by the ATmega16 microcontroller with the help of

DTMF decoder MT8870. The decoder decodes the DTMF tone into its equivalent

binary digit and this binary number is sent to the microcontroller. The

microcontroller is pre programmed to take a decision for any given input and

outputs its decision to motor drivers in order to drive the motors for forward or

backward motion or a turn. The mobile that makes a call to the mobile phone

stacked in the robot acts as a remote. So this simple robotic project does not

require the construction of receiver and transmitter units. DTMF signaling is used

for telephone signaling over the line in the voice-frequency band to the call

switching centre. The version of DTMF used for telephone tone dialing is known

as ‘Touch-Tone’. DTMF assigns a specific frequency (consisting of two separate

tones) to each key so that it can easily be identified by the electronic circuit. The

signal generated by the DTMF encoder is a direct algebraic summation, in real

time, of the amplitudes of two sine (cosine) waves of different frequencies, i.e.,

pressing ‘5’ will send a tone made by adding 1336 Hz and 770 Hz to the other end

of the mobile phone.

1.4Methodology

The method of project operation is given below.

Makes call to the mobile phone (as receiver) attached to the robot. Now after

answering the call, and in the course of the call, if any button is pressed control

corresponding to the button pressed is heard at the other end of the call. This tone

is called dual tone multi frequency tome (DTMF) robot receives this DTMF tone

with the help of phone stacked in the robot.

The received tone is processed by the 16F72 microcontroller with the help of

DTMF decoder MT8870 the decoder decodes the DTMF tone in to its equivalent

binary digit and this binary number is send to the microcontroller, the

microcontroller is preprogrammed to take a decision for any give input and outputs

its decision to motor drivers in order to drive the motors for forward or backward

motion or a turn. The mobile that makes a call to the mobile

phone stacked in the robot acts as a remote. So this simple robotic project does not

require the construction of receiver and transmitter units. DTMF signaling is used

for telephone signaling over the line in the voice frequency band to the call

switching center. The version of DTMF used for telephone dialing is known as

touch tone. DTMF assigns a specific frequency (consisting of two separate tones)

to each key s that it can easily be identified by the electronic circuit. The signal

generated by the DTMF encoder is the direct al-gebric submission, in real time of

the amplitudes of two sine (cosine) waves of different frequencies, i.e. ,pressing 5

will send a tone made by adding 1336hz and 770hz to the other end of the mobile.

1.5 EXPECTED TIME SCHEDULE(PERT CHART):

1.5.1 Phase I:

This is the basic phase but the most time consuming phase as this phase involve the

The primary step toward the search of components& ICs which will be required.

For the designing of our project we require we some specific hardware and

software and then interfacing the components each other to accomplish the task

required by our project.

Hence our mainly consist of two parts-

1. Hardware

2. Software
