PROJECT INTRODUCTION

INTRODUCTION

Nowadays robot has been widely used in various fields like industries, academic, research

and development, militaries and others. This chapter defines the robot, the project on

intelligent spy robot. There are objective and scope of project those give the direction to

successfully complete this project. The project is to build an intelligent spy robot that has

capability to display the movement live on LCD, to detect if any obstacle on its path and

stops there, to detect chunks of metal and is equipped with laser which is replica for a gun .

1.1 Robots

Robots have increasingly being used in industries, especially in manufacturing and

assembling in major industrialized countries. There are some advantages of using robot, they

are:

Reduce labour cost. Improved the work quality. Elimination of dangerous or undesirable jobs. Controlled and faster inventory. Increase precision.

Robot that are capable to perform complicated motion and have external sensor such as

vision, tactile or force sensing are required for a more complicated applications such as

welding, painting, grinding and assembly. This is because these operations resulted in the

increase of interaction between the robot and its surrounding. A robot by definition is a

machine that looks like a human being and performs various complex acts, walking and

talking of a human being. It is also defined as fictional machine whose lack of capacity for

human emotions is often emphasized. By general convention a robot is a programmable

machine that imitates the actions or appearance of an intelligent creature such as human.

From the Robot Institute of America, robot is defined:

A robot is a programmable multifunctional manipulator designed to move material, part,

tools or specialized device through variable programmed motion for the performance of a

variety of tasks.

British Robot Association (BRA) defines robot as:

A programmable device with a minimum of four degrees of freedom designed to both

manipulate and transport parts, tools or specialized manufacturing implements through

variable programmed motion for the performance of the specific manufacturing task (Al

Salameh, 2000)

Robotics is the branch of technology that deals with the design, construction, operation,

structural disposition, manufacture and application of robots. Robotics is related to software,

engineering, electronics and mechanics.

Need of RobotsOften, robots are used to do jobs that could be done by humans. However, there are many

reasons why robots may be better than humans in performing certain tasks.

SpeedRobots may be used because they are FASTER than people at carrying out tasks.

This is because a robot is really a mechanism which is controlled by a computer - and we

know that computers can do calculations and process data very quickly.

Hazardous Environment


3/633

Robots may be used because they can work in places where a human would be in danger.

For example, robots can be designed to withstand greater amounts of

heat radiation, chemical fumes

than humans could.

Repetitive TasksSometimes robots are not really much faster than humans, but they are good at simply doing

the same job over and over again. This is easy for a robot, because once the robot has been

programmed to do a job once, the same program can be run many times to carry out the job

many times. And the robot will not get bored as a human would.

EfficiencyEfficiency is all about carrying out tasks without waste. This could mean

not wasting time

not wasting materials not wasting energy

AccuracyAccuracy is all about carrying out tasks very precisely. In a factory manufacturing items,

each item has to be made identically. When items are being assembled, a robot can position

parts within fractions of a millimetre.

AdaptabilityAdaptability is where a certain robot can be used to carry out more than one task. A simple

example is a robot being used to weld car bodies. If a different car body is to be

manufactured, the program which controls the robot can be changed. The robot will thencarry out a different series of movements to weld the new car body.

1.2 Purpose of the Project

Intelligent spy robot project has been designed for the spying purpose. There are many spy or

surveillances camera widely used for home or organization security system. Some of the

design able to control via computer by using XBEE that have the wide range of transmit and

receive data. With this device the human will able to control and see the wireless visual

system via computer from other location.

In military, the wireless camera has been used as their first line force to survey the enemy

location from their base. By using this robot, they can save their soldier live because before

they move to enemy location they already know the enemy situation and percentage to they

win in the war will be increase. The main objective behind making this robot is to provide

little or small help to our police department and army. It can be used for SPYING

PURPOSES to get the confidential details of anybody from remote area without making

our life in danger. The camera which would be installed can provide the live streaming of

the places where a human cannot reach (especially during natural calamities like

earthquakes).

To accomplish this task we have installed a robot with a camera which can help the

purpose of spying. Along with the camera we have installed other devices metal detector,

obstacle sensor and a laser (used as replica for gun).

1.3 Objective

There are four main objectives in this project.

The first objective of this project is the wireless visual system which is used to human

monitor the robot vision via mobile. To build the wireless visual system, the wireless camera

will be applied on the robot and the wireless camera will transmit the visual around the robot

to the receiver on the LCD.

The second objective is to build the obstacle sensor that the robot capable to stop moving

when there are obstacles detected. To build a robot with ability to detect obstacle, the

obstacle sensor is needed. There are many type of obstacle avoider sensor. The regular

obstacle avoider sensor used is Infra Red sensor (IR) because it is easy to use and cheap. The

IR sensor operation is when there are object detected, the light on IR will shoot to the object

and deflect the light to IR receiver so that the voltage from drop from deflection will be

analyzed by the microcontroller to response.

The third objective is to build the metal detector that the robot is capable to detect chunks of

metal on its path and a buzzer alarm is initiated which detects the presence of chunks of

metal.

The last objective is to install a laser on the robot which can be used as a replica of gun to fire

on the enemy whenever an enemy is seen on the LCD screen.

1.4 Literature Review

Conducting the literature review is done prior to undertaking the project. This will critically

provide as much information as needed on the technology available and methodologies used

by other research counterparts around the world on the topic. This chapter provides the

summary of literature reviews on topics related to spy robot or robot that has capability to

survey the environment via wireless vision system including robot with obstacle sensor and

metal detector.

Mobile Operated Robot

Conventionally, Wireless-controlled robots use rf circuits, which have the drawbacks of

limited working range, limited frequency range and the limited control. Use of a mobile

phone for robotic control can overcome these limitations. It provides the advantage of robust

control, working range as large as the coverage area of the service provider,

Although the appearance and the capabilities of robots vary vastly, all robots share the featureof a mechanical, movable structure under some form of control. The Control of robot

involves three distinct phases: perception, 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 is performed using motors or with some other actuators.

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

robot 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 atmega16 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 pre-programmed to

take a decision for any give input and outputs its decision to motor drivers in order to drivethe 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


7/637

this simple robotic project does not require the construction of receiver and transmitter units.

DTMF signalling is used for telephone signalling over the line in the voice frequency band to

the call switching centre. The version of DTMF used for telephone dialling 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 algebraic 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.

Obstacle Sensing Robot

Such robots include sensors that require no physical contact with the object being detected.

They allow a robot to see an obstacle without actually having to come into contact with it.

This can prevent possible entanglement, allow for better obstacle avoidance (over touch-

feedback methods), and possibly allow software to distinguish between obstacles of different

shapes and sizes. There are several methods used to allow a sensor to detect obstacles from a

distance.

Infrared Light Based Sensor

Another very popular method uses projected light waves, usually infrared, to detect obstacles.

This system projects a pulse of light and looks for the reflection. Properties of the reflected

light are analyzed to determine characteristics about the object detected. Light has the

advantages of travelling extremely fast, allowing for fast sensor response time, highresolution, and less error to account for. Light from this type of sensor is often formed into a

narrow beam or many times a laser is used. This provides good resolution over large

distances.

CHAPTER 2

PROJECT METHODOLOGY

Methodology

A proper planning is needed to ensure this project is completed on time and follow the

objective. The developing process of The Intelligent Spy Robot involves in design of the

main controller circuit includes the electronics and motorization, hardware and

simulations and etc. Therefore, this chapter discusses the methods and materials

employed in the design and fabrication of the project, as well as its manner of operation.

Basically, this project is an interdisciplinary field that ranges in scope from the design

of mechanical, electrical components and software development

2.1.0 Mechanical PartTo build the intelligent spy robot, several specifications need to apply, for the robot has

the capability as the spy robot. The intelligent spy robot must have the wheel for the

robot to move and twin motor needed to move the wheel. The obstacle sensor need to

place in front of the robot to the robot has capability to detect obstacle beside it. This

project using the metal detector to the robot stop moving when there is metal detected.

The metal detector must be place at the place that easily to detect metal like at the top of

the robot.

The last mechanical part is the wireless visual system or wireless camera. The wirelesscamera needs to be placed at the top of the robot and there are need mechanism for the

camera to has capability to turn up and down for the robot able to survey the

surrounding environment.

2.2 FUNDAMENTAL OF ROBOTICS2.2.1 Base: - For base we use chassis, chassis can be of wood or steel. All components

are fitted on these chassis.

Different types of chassis are:-

->Micro robot chassis

->4WD chassis

->Pololu chassis

->Battle kit chassis

2.2.2 Actuator:- Actuators allow movement and convert commands into actions. There

are 3 main types of actuators: electric, hydraulic and pneumatic.

Electric ActuatorsElectric actuators are simply electro-mechanical devices which allow movement through theuse of electrically controlled systems of gears. Some common types are stepper motors,

solenoids and an electric motor. Electric motors are the most common form of actuator.

Hydraulic ActuatorsHydraulic actuators allow a robot to move by the use of fluids moving under pressure through

a series of valves by the use of pumps. The hydraulic fluids bussed would normally consist of

oils which are reasonably non-compressible. They are used where a lot of power is needed to

move things. These would commonly be industrial robots possibly used on a car assembly

line.

Pneumatic ActuatorsPneumatic actuators use compressed gas to force the movement of pistons through the use of

pumps and valves and so allow movement of the robotic part. Pneumatic actuators work on


11/6311

the same principles as hydraulic actuators using a series of valves, pumps and pistons to

generate movement in the robot. Grippers usually use compressed gas because electrics are

too dangerous and hydraulics can become too messy if they were to leak.

2.2.3 Motor :- We require 6v to 12 v DC motor for driving the spy robot.WheelsThe wheels connected to geared motors are shown below.

The basic purpose of wheels connected to geared motors is to convert the rotational torque of

shaft (which moves due to the rotation of gears), to linear motion for the robot. Positioning

and alignment of wheels is necessary for the smooth motion of robot. Also, they are to be

fixed on the shaft in such a manner that they rotate only on the movement of shaft and unlikecaster are not free to rotate as such.

Wheels are the most important part for any robot for its linear motion and so knowledge

about their proper use is necessary for any person related to the field.

Gear Mechanism in MotorsA gear is a component within a transmission device that transmits rotational torque by

applying a force to the teeth of another gear or device. A gear is different from a pulley in

that a gear is a round wheel that has linkages ("teeth" or "cogs") that mesh with other gear

teeth, allowing force to be fully transferred without slippage. Depending on their construction

and arrangement, geared devices can transmit forces at different speeds, torques, or in a

different direction, from the power source.The most common situation is for a gear to mesh with another gear, but a gear can mesh with

any device having compatible teeth, such as linear moving racks.


12/6312

The gear's most important feature is that gears of unequal sizes (diameters) can be combined

to produce a mechanical advantage, so that the rotational speed and torque of the second gear

are different from those of the first. In the context of a particular machine, the term "gear"

also refers to one particular arrangement of gears among other arrangements (such as "first

gear"). Such arrangements are often given as a ratio, using the number of teeth or gear

diameter as units.

Mechanical advantage:

Intermeshing gears in motion

The interlocking of the teeth in a pair of meshing gears means that their circumferences

necessarily move at the same rate of linear motion (e.g. meters per second, or feet per

minute). Since rotational speed (e.g. measured in revolutions per second, revolutions per

minute, or radians per second) is proportional to a wheel's circumferential speed divided by

its radius, we see that the larger the radius of a gear, the slower will be its rotational speed,

when meshed with a gear of given size and speed. The same conclusion can also be reached

by a different analytical process: counting teeth. Since the teeth of two meshing gears are

locked in a one to one correspondence, when all of the teeth of the smaller gear have passed

the point where the gears meeti.e., when the smaller gear has made one revolution -- not all

of the teeth of the larger gear will have passed that point -- the larger gear will have made less

than one revolution. The smaller gear makes more revolutions in a given period of time; it

turns faster. The speed ratio is simply the reciprocal ratio of the numbers of teeth on the twogears.

(Speed A * Number of teeth A) = (Speed B * Number of teeth B)

This ratio is known as the gear ratio.

The torque ratio can be determined by considering the force that a tooth of one gear exerts on

a tooth of the other gear. Consider two teeth in contact at a point on the line joining the shaft

axes of the two gears. In general, the force will have both a radial and a tangential

component. The radial component can be ignored: it merely causes a sideways push on the

shaft and does not contribute to turning. The tangential component causes turning. The torque

is equal to the tangential component of the force into radius. Thus we see that the larger gear

experiences greater torque; the smaller gear less. The torque ratio is equal to the ratio of the

radii. This is exactly the inverse of the case with the velocity ratio. Higher torque implieslower velocity and vice versa. The fact that the torque ratio is the inverse of the velocity ratio

could also be inferred from the law of conservation of energy. Here we have been neglecting

the effect of friction on the torque ratio. The velocity ratio is truly given by the tooth or size

ratio, but friction will cause the torque ratio to be actually somewhat less than the inverse of

the velocity ratio.


13/6313

DC MOTORS-These motors run on DC. Here, in our case, the motors used are brushed DC electric motor. A

brushed DC motor is an internally commutated electric motor designed to be run from a DC

power source.

Simple two-pole DC motor-

DC Motor Rotation

When the coil is powered, a

magnetic field is generated

around the armature. The left

side of the armature is pushed

away from the left magnet and

drawn toward the right,

causing rotation.

The armature continues to

rotate.

When the armature becomes

horizontally aligned, the

commutator reverses the

direction of current through

the coil, reversing the

magnetic field. The process

then repeats.

2.2.4 Driving cicuit:-Physical motion of some form helps differentiate a robot from a

computer. It would be nice if a motor could be attached directly to a chip that

controlled the movement. But, most chips can't pass enough current or voltage to spin a

motor. Also, motors tend to be electrically noisy (spikes) and can slam power back into

the control lines when the motor direction or speed is changed.Specialized circuits (motor drivers) have been developed to supply motors with power and to

isolate the other ICs from electrical problems. These circuits can be designed such that they

can be completely separate boards, reusable from project to project.A very popular circuit for driving DC motors (ordinary or gearhead) is called an H-bridge.

It's called that because it looks like the capital letter 'H' when viewed on a discrete schematic.

The great ability of an H-bridge circuit is that the motor can be driven forward or backward at

any speed, optionally using a completely independent power source.

An H-bridge design can be really simple for prototyping or really extravagant for added

protection and isolation. An H-bridge can be implemented with various kinds of components

(commonbipolar transistors,FET transistors, MOSFET transistors,power MOSFETs,or

evenchips).

2.2.5 Interfacing circuit:- We have use two interfacing circuits for spy robot, camera

interfacing circuit and DTMF interfacing cicuit .

CHAPTER 3

DTMF (Dual Tone Multiple Frequency)

3.1 DTMF Is Dual Tone Multi-FrequencyTones

These are the tones that you hear when you press keys on a telephone keypad. The reason forusing this standard is that you can buy a single, very accurate IC (usually used in answering

machines and the like) that takes care of all the filtering, amplifying and interpreting

necessary to determine which key was pressed. And because it's just an analog audio signal

that is being exchanged, it can use a number of ordinary, low-cost transmitter/receiver pairs

for sending that audio signal.

The design of the circuit for decoding DTMF tones is pretty straightforward. The CM8870 IC

interprets the tones as a 4-bit digital signal. Then microcontroller checks for the decoded

digital signal and compare it with the program installed it. After decoding it will make motors

operational through H-BRIDGE (controls clockwise and anticlockwise motion of motor

shaft)

When all put together, It will send the DTMF tones over an old 900MHz cordless phone,

providing a range of several hundred feet. Because of the modular nature of this system, in

the future I could swap out the cordless phone for a newer one, or a pair of FRS radios, or

some other transmitter/receiver pair. It doesn't really matter.

So then based on which key is pressed, the robot will be able to interpret the tone such to turnon motors and move about.


16/6316

3.2 Theory of OperationSo what are these tones?

In DTMF there are 16 distinct tones. Each tone is the sum of two frequencies: one from a low

and one from a high frequency group.There are four different frequencies in each group.

Your phone only uses 12 of the possible 16 tones. If you look at your phone, there are only 4

rows (R1, R2, R3 and R4) and 3 columns (C1, C2 and C3). The rows and columns selectfrequencies from the low and high frequency group respectively. The exact value of the

frequencies are listed in Table 3 below:

TABLE 3: DTMF Row/Column FrequenciesLOW-FREQUENCIES

ROW # FREQUENCY (HZ)

R1: ROW 0 697

R2: ROW 1 770

R3: ROW 2 852

R4: ROW 3 941

HIGH-FREQUENCIES

COL # FREQUENCY (HZ)C1: COL 0 1209

C2: COL 1 1336

C3: COL 2 1477

C4: COL 3 1633

C4 not used in phones

Thus to decipher what tone frequency is associated with a particular key, look at your phone

again. Each key is specified by its row and column locations. For example the "2" key is row

0 (R1) and column 1 (C2). Thus using the above table, "2" has a frequency of 770 + 1336 =

2106 Hz The "9" is row 2 (R3) and column 2 (C3) and has a frequency of 852 + 1477 = 2329

Hz.

The following graph is a captured screen from an oscilloscope. It is a plot of the tone

frequency for the "1" key:


17/6317

You can see that the DTMF generated signal is very distinct and clear. The horizontal axis is

in samples. The frequency of the tone is about 1900 Hz - close to the 1906 Hz predicted by

Table 3 (697+1209).

functions into a single 18-pin DIP or SOIC package. Manufactured using CMOS process

technology, the M-8870 offers low power consumption (35 mW max) and precise data


18/6318

handling. Its filter section uses switched capacitor technology for both the high and low

group filters and for dial tone rejection. Its decoder uses digital counting techniques to detect

and decode all 16 DTMF tone pairs into a 4-bit code. External component count is minimized

by provision of an on-chip differential input amplifier, clock generator, and latched tri-state

interface bus. Minimal external components required include a low-cost 3.579545 MHz

colour burst crystal, a timing resistor, and a timing capacitor.The M-8870-02 provides a power-down option which, when enabled, drops consumption

to less than 0.5 mW. The M-8870-02 can also inhibit the decoding of fourth column digits

4.1 Circuit Diagram


21/6321

4.2 How do we make a motor turn?

You take a battery; hook the positive side to one side of your DC motor. Then you connect

the negative side of the battery to the other motor lead. The motor spins forward. If you swap

the battery leads the motor spins in reverse.

Ok, that's basic. Now lets say you want a Micro Controller Unit (MCU) to control the motor,how would you do it? Well, for starters you get a device that would act like a solid state

switch, a transistor, and hook it up the motor.

NOTE:If you connect up these relay circuits, remember to put a diode across the coil of the

relay. This will keep the spike voltage (back EMF), coming out of the coil of the relay, from

getting into the MCU and damaging it. The anode, which is the arrow side of the diode,

should connect to ground. The bar, which is the Cathode side of the diode, should connect to

the coil where the MCU connects to the relay

If you connect this circuit to a small hobby motor you can control the motor with a processor

(MCU, etc.) Applying a logical one, (+12 Volts in our example) to point A causes the motor

to turn forward. Applying a logical zero, (ground) causes the motor to stop turning (to coast

and stop).

Hook the motor up in this fashion and the circuit turns the motor in reverse when you apply a

logical one (+12Volts) to point B. Apply a logical zero, which is usually a ground, causes the

motor to stop spinning.

If you hook up these circuits you can only get the motor to stop or turn in one direction,

forward for the first circuit or reverse for the second circuit.

4.3 Motor Speed

You can also pulse the motor control line, (A or B) on and off. This powers the motor in short

burst and gets varying degrees of torque, which usually translates into variable motor speed.

But if you want to be able to control the motor in both forward and reverse with a processor,

you will need more circuitry. You will need an H-Bridge. Notice the "H"-looking

configuration in the next graphic. Relays configured in this fashion make an H-Bridge. The

"high side drivers" are the relays that control the positive voltage to the motor. This is calledsourcing current.

The "low side drivers" are the relays that control the negative voltage to sink current to the

motor. "Sinking current" is the term for connecting the circuit to the negative side of the


22/6322

power supply, which is usually ground.

So, you turn on the upper left and lower right circuits, and power flows through the motor

forward, i.e.: 1 to A, 0 to B, 0 to C, and 1 to D.

Then for reverse you turn on the upper right and lower left circuits and power flows through

the motor in reverse, i.e.: 0 to A, 1 to B, 1 to C, and 0 to D.


23/6323

4.4 Semiconductor H-Bridges

We can better control our motor by using transistors or Field Effect Transistors (FETs).

Most of what we have discussed about the relays H-Bridge is true of these circuits. You don't

need diodes that were across the relay coils now. You should use diodes across your

transistors though. See the following diagram showing how they are connected.

These solid state circuits provide power and ground connections to the motor, as did the relay

circuits. The high side drivers need to be current "sources" which is what PNP transistors and

P-channel FETs are good at. The low side drivers need to be current "sinks" which is what

NPN transistors and N-channel FETs are good at.

If you turn on the two upper circuits, the motor resists turning, so you effectively have a

breaking mechanism. The same is true if you turn on both of the lower circuits. This is

because the motor is a generator and when it turns it generates a voltage. If the terminals of

the motor are connected (shorted), then the voltage generated counteracts the motors freedom

to turn. It is as if you are applying a similar but opposite voltage to the one generated by the

motor being turned. Vis--vis, it acts like a brake.

To be nice to your transistors, you should add diodes to catch the back voltage that is

generated by the motor's coil when the power is switched on and off. This fly back voltage

can be many times higher than the supply voltage.

Transistors, being a semiconductor device, will have some resistance, which causes them to

get hot when conducting much current. This is called not being able to sink or source very

much power, i.e.: Not able to provide much current from ground or from plus voltage.


24/6324

Mosfets are much more efficient, they can provide much more current and not get as hot.

They usually have the flyback diodes built in so you don't need the diodes anymore. This

helps guard against flyback voltage frying your MCU.

To use Mosfets in an H-Bridge, you need P-Channel Mosfets on top because they can

"source" power, and N-Channel Mosfets on the bottom because then can "sink" power. N-

Channel Mosfets are much cheaper than P-Channel Mosfets, but N-Channel Mosfets used tosource power require about 7 volts more than the supply voltage, to turn on. As a result, some

people manage to use N-Channel Mosfets, on top of the H-Bridge, by using cleaver circuits

to overcome the breakdown voltage.

It is important that the four quadrants of the H-Bridgecircuits be turned on and off properly.

When there is a path between the positive and ground side of the H-Bridge, other than

through the motor, a condition exists called "shoot through". This is basically a direct short of

the power supply and can cause semiconductors to become ballistic, in circuits with large

currents flowing. There are H-bridge chips available that are much easier, and safer, to use

than designing your own H-Bridge circuit.


25/6325

4.5 Functions of individual Parts

1. PC 817 Opto-coupler-Its function is isolation of the voltage levels of the DC motor and the micro-controller.

The micro-controller works on 5 volts but the DC motor works on 12 volts. As these

two are different voltage levels, there is a need of isolation and the four-legged PC817 device is used here.

2. BC 557 Transistors-The function of BC 557 transistors is to perform the EX-OR operation in the module.

This leads to the fact that the DC motor will work either on 10 or 01 logic levels

coming from the micro-controller to the input signal position in the H-Bridge module.

So, the DC motor is saved from damage. This is because if 00 or 11 are supplied tothe motors, they will be shorted as explained i the theory about H-Bridges.

3. TIP 112 and TIP 127-There are 8 transistors connected in the H-Bridge module other than BC 557. Of

them, 4 are TIP 112 and 4 are TIP 127. The former are NPN transistors and the latter

are PNP transistors. They make up in total 4 Darlington Pairs.

A Darlington Pair is a circuit consisting of transistors which is responsible for current

amplification. Eventually, this current is supplied to the DC motors to make them run.

4. Diodes-There are 8 diodes used here. Their number is 1N4007 and of 1 ampere current rating.

They are used to prevent back e.m.f. This back e.m.f can cause damage to the DC

motor.

SENSOR

Sensor is a device that when exposed to a physical phenomenon (temperature,

displacement, force and others) produces a proportional output signal (electrical,

mechanical, magnetic and others). The term transducer is often used synonymously

with sensors. Ideally, a sensor is a device that response to a change in the physical

phenomenon. On other hand, a transducer is a device that converts one form of energy

into another form of energy. Sensors are transducer when they sense one form of energy

input and output in the different form of energy. For example, a thermocouple response

to a temperature changes (thermal energy) and outputs a proportional change in

electromotive force (electrical energy).

This project uses IR sensors that function as an obstacle avoider when there are

obstacles detected.


28/6328

5.1 IR SENSOR

Infra-red (IR) sensor use the concept of reflection of light to function. It consists of two

devices, which called as receiver (Rx) and transmitter (Tx). Transmitter transmits the

IR packet to an object while receiver receives the packet sent after the light reflected

from the object.

We used 556 IC for generating a baudrate as the receiver which is being used in this

project is a photo transistor not a photo diode . Photo diode has a feature to work on a

frequency of 38 khz or we can say that it only receives the signal of 38 khz.


29/6329

5.2 Metal Sensor

METAL SENSOR use the concept of reflection of magnetic pulses to function. It

consists of two devices, which called as receiver (Rx) and transmitter (Tx). Transmitter

transmits the magnetic pulses to an object while receiver receives the magnetic pulses

sent after the pulses reflected from the object. If the receiver receives the pulses then

buzzer get activated. Here transmitter and receiver both are solenoids of 6v and 12v . 6v

is transmitter and 12 v receiver.

CHAPTER 6

MICROCONTROLLER6.1AT89S52 Microcontroller:6.1.1 Description:

The AT89S52 is a low-power, high-performance CMOS 8-bit microcontroller with 8K bytes

of in-system programmable Flash memory. The device is manufactured using Atmels high-

density non-volatile memory technology and is compatible with the industry-standard 80C51

instruction set and pin-out. The on-chip Flash allows the program memory to be

reprogrammed in-system or by a conventional non-volatile memory programmer. By

combining a versatile 8-bit CPU with in-system programmable Flash on a monolithic chip,

the Atmel AT89S52 is a powerful microcontroller which provides a highly-flexible and cost-

effective solution to many embedded control applications. The AT89S52 provides the

following standard features: 8K bytes of Flash, 256 bytes of RAM, 32 I/O lines, Watchdog

timer, two data pointers, three 16-bit timer/counters, a six-vector two-level interrupt

architecture, a full duplex serial port, on-chip oscillator, and clock circuitry. In addition, the

AT89S52 is designed with static logic for operation down to zero frequency and supports two

software selectable power saving modes. The Idle Mode stops the CPU while allowing the

RAM, timer/counters, serial port, and interrupt system to continue functioning. The Power-

down mode saves the RAM con-tents but freezes the oscillator, disabling all other chip

functions until the next interrupt or hardware reset.

33/6333

6.1.4 Pin Description

1) VCC - Supply voltage.

2) GND - Ground.

3) Port 0 - Port 0 is an 8-bit open drain bidirectional I/O port. As an output port,each pin can sink eight TTL inputs. When 1s are written to port 0 pins, the pins

can be used as high-impedance inputs. Port 0 can also be configured to be the

multiplexed low-order address/data bus during accesses to external program and

data memory. In this mode, P0 has internal pull-ups. Port 0 also receives the

code bytes during Flash programming and outputs the code bytes during

program verification. External pull-ups are required during program

verification.

4) Port 1 - Port 1 is an 8-bit bidirectional I/O port with internal pull-ups. The Port 1output buffers can sink/source four TTL inputs. When 1s are written to Port 1

pins, they are pulled high by the internal pull-ups and can be used as inputs. Asinputs, Port 1 pins that are externally being pulled low will source current (IIL)

because of the internal pull-ups. In addition, P1.0 and P1.1 can be configured to

be the timer/counter 2 external count input (P1.0/T2) and the timer/counter 2

trigger input (P1.1/T2EX), respectively, as shown in the following table. Port 1

also receives the low-order address bytes during Flash programming and

verification.

5) Port 2 - Port 2 is an 8-bit bidirectional I/O port with internal pull-ups. The Port 2 output buffers can sink/source four TTL inputs. When 1s arewritten to Port 2 pins, they are pulled high by the internal pull-ups and can be

used as inputs. As inputs, Port 2 pins that are externally being pulled low will

source current (IIL) because of the internal pull-ups. Port 2 emits the high-order

address byte during fetches from external program memory and during accesses

to external data memory that uses 16-bit addresses (MOVX @ DPTR). In this

application, Port 2 uses strong internal pull-ups when emitting 1s. During

accesses to external data memory that use 8-bit addresses (MOVX @ RI), Port 2

emits the contents of the P2 Special Function Register. Port 2 also receives the

high-order address bits and some control signals during Flash programming and

verification.


34/6334

6) Port 3 - This does not need any pull-up resistors since it already haspull-up resistors internally. Although port 3 is configured as an output port upon

reset, this is not the way it is most commonly used.Port 3 has the additional function of providing signals.This can be seen from the

next table.


35/6335

PORT 3 Table of functions

7) RST - Reset input. A high on this pin for two machine cycles while the oscillator is

running resets the device. This pin drives high for 98 oscillator periods after the

Watchdog times out. The DISRTO bit in SFR AUXR (address 8EH) can be used to

disable this feature. In the default state of bit DISRTO, the RESET HIGH out feature

is enabled.

8) ALE/PROG - Address Latch Enable (ALE) is an output pulse for latching the low

byte of the address during accesses to external memory. This pin is also the program

pulse input (PROG) during Flash programming. In normal operation, ALE is emitted

at a constant rate of 1/6 the oscillator frequency and may be used for external timing

or clocking purposes. Note, however, that one ALE pulse is skipped during eachaccess to external data memory. If desired, ALE operation can be disabled by setting

bit 0 of SFR location 8EH. With the bit set, ALE is active only during a MOVX or

MOVC instruction. Otherwise, the pin is weakly pulled high. Setting the ALE-disable

bit has no effect if the microcontroller is in external execution mode.

9) PSEN - Program Store Enable (PSEN) is the read strobe to external program memory.

When the AT89S52 is executing code from external program memory, PSEN is

activated twice each machine cycle, except that two PSEN activations are skipped

during each access to external data memory.

10) EA/VPP - External Access Enable. EA must be strapped to GND in order to enable

the device to fetch code from external program memory locations starting at 0000H

up to FFFFH. Note, however, that if lock bit 1 is programmed, EA will be internally

latched on reset. EA should be strapped to VCC for internal program executions. This

pin also receives the 12-volt programming enable voltage (VPP) during Flash

programming.

11) XTAL1 - Input to the inverting oscillator amplifier and input to the internal clock

operating circuit.

12) XTAL2 - Output from the inverting oscillator amplifier.

Function of other parts:

1.7805 Voltage Regulator IC -As clear from its name, the function of voltage regulator 7805 is , basically to regulate

the voltage. By this, we mean to ensure a constant supply at a level of 5 volts compared

to ground. This is essential as the Micro-controller works on voltage levels 5V and

ground.

2. Capacitors (10 F) -The capacitor (10 F) connected at the left side is for reset of the circuit and the one atthe right side is to smoothen the output load.


36/6336

3. Electrolytic Capacitors (1000 F) and DiodesThese form the bridge rectifier circuit for the micro-controller unit module. This circuit

is responsible for fact that the robot will run on both ac and dc. In case of dc, the

rectifier circuit will not come into account but in case of ac, the circuit will convert the

ac into dc. This is essential as the micro-controller runs on dc.

4.10 k sipThis 10 k sip is a register network. Its function is to give active-low on Port P0. So, what

happens is that all the 8 pins of P0 have 5 volts on them and so are disabled. Only when

they are made 0 do the pins become enabled.

5. Crystal (11.0592 MHz)This is a Quartz crystal. Its function is to provide for the pins XTAL1 and XTAL2. The

crystal provides for the internal operating clock and also is the input to the invertingoscillating amplifiers in the internal structure of the AT89S52 micro-controller.


37/6337

6.2 Assembly and Testing:-

i) The P.C.B and the individual components were taken.ii) The micro-controller casing was fixed first. This is necessary, as if the micro-

controller is directly soldered, its functioning will be hampered and it would bedifficult to solder the very small pieces of the micro-controller chip.iii) Then the 1000F Electrolytic Capacitor was soldered along with thediodes to make the Bridge Rectifier circuit.iv) The IC 7805 voltage regulator is then soldered on to the P.C.B.v) After that, the 10F capacitors are soldered on to the P.C.B.vi) Then the crystal and other remaining components followed.vii) The Micro-controller unit module was prepared and ready to use.

CHAPTER 7

PROGRAMMING AND FLOW CHART

7.1 KEIL SOFTWAREThe version of the C programming language used for the microcontroller environment is not

very different than standard C when working on mathematical operations, or organizing your

code. The main difference is all about the limitations of the processor of the 89S52

microcontroller as compared to modern computers.

From the C program to the machine language

The C source code is very high level language, meaning that it is far from being at the base

level of the machine language that can be executed by a processor. This machine language is

basically just zero's and one's and is written in Hexadecimal format, that why they are calledHEX files.

There are several types

of HEX files; we are

going to produce

machine code in the

INTEL HEX-80 format,

since this is the output

of the KEIL IDE that

we are going to use.

Figure 2.1.A shows that

to convert a C program

to machine language, it

takes several steps

depending on the tool

you are using, however,

the main idea is to

produce a HEX file at

the end. This HEX file

will be then used by the

'burner' to write everybyte of data at the

appropriate place in the

EEPROM of the 89S52.

figure 2.1.A

Variables and constants

VariablesOne of the most basic concepts of programming is to handle variables. knowing the exact

type and size of a variable is a very important issue for microcontroller programmers,

because the RAM is usually limited is size. There are two main design considerations to be

taken in account when choosing the variables types: the occupied space in ram and theprocessing speed. Logically, a variable that occupies a big number of registers in RAM will

be more slowly processed than a small variable that fits on a single register.


39/6339

For you to chose the right variable type for each one of your applications, you will have to

refer to the following table:

Data Type Bits Bytes Value RangeBit 1 -- 0 to 1

signed char 8 1 -128 to +127unsigned

char

8 1 0 to 255

signed int 16 2 -32768 to +32767

unsigned int 16 2 0 to 65535

signed long 32 4 -2147483648 to 2147483647

unsigned

long

32 4 0 to 4294967295

float 32 4 1.175494E-38 to 3.402823E+38

This table shows the number of bits and bytes occupied by each types of variables, notingthat each byte will fit into a register. You will notice that most variables can be either 'signed'

or unsigned 'unsigned', and the major difference between the tow types is the range, but both

will occupy the same exact space in memory.

The names of the variables shown in the table are the same that are going to be used in the

program for variables declarations. Note that in C programming language, any variable have

to be declared to be used. Declaring a variable, will attribute a specific location in the RAM

or FLASH memory to that variable. The size of that location will depend on the type of the

variable that have been declared.

To understand the difference between those types, consider the following example sourcecode where we start by declaring three 'unsigned char' variables, and one 'signed char' and

then perform some simple operations:

unsigned char a,b,c;

signed char d;

a = 100;

b = 200;

c = a - b;

d = a - b;

In that program the values of 'c' will be equal to '155'! and not '-100' as you though, because

the variable 'c' is an unsigned type, and when a the value to be stored in a variable is bigger

than the maximum value range of this variable, it overflows and rolls back to the other limit.

Back to our example, the program is trying to store '-100' in 'c', but since 'c' is unsigned, its

range of values is from '0 to 255' so, trying to store a value below zero, will cause the the

variable to overflow, and the compiler will subtract the '-100' from the other limit plus 1,

from '255 + 1' giving '156'. We add 1 to the range because the overflow and roll back

operation from 0 to 255 counts for the subtraction of one bit. On the other hand, the value of

'd' will be equal to '-100' as expected, because it is a 'signed' variable. Generally, we try to

avoid storing value that are out of range, because sometime, even if the compiler doesn't halton that error, the results can be sometimes totally un-expected.

Note that in the C programming language, any code line is ended with a semicolon ';', except


40/6340

for the lines ending with brackets '{' '}'.

Like in any programming language, the concept of a variables 'array' can also be used for

microcontrollers programming. an array is like a table or a group of variables of the same

type, each one can be called by a specific number, for example an array can be declared this

way:

char display[10];

this will create a group of 10 variables. Each one of them is accessible by its number,

example:

display[0] = 100;

display[3] = 60;

display[1] = display[0] - display[3];

where 'display[1]' will be equal to '40'. Note that 'display' contains 10 different variables,numbered from 0 to 9. In that previous example, according to the variable declaration, there

is not such variable location as 'display[10]', and using it will cause an error in the compiler.

ConstantsSometimes, you want to store a very large amount of constant values, that wouldn't fit in the

RAM or simply would take too much space. you can store this DATA in the FLASH memory

reserved for the code, but it wont be editable, once the program is burned on your chip. The

advantage of this technique is that it can be used to store a huge amount of variables, noting

that the FLASH memory of the 89S52 is 8K bytes, 32 times bigger than the RAM memory. It

is, however, your responsibility to distribute this memory between your program and your

DATA.

To specify that a variable is to be stored in the FLASH memory, we use exactly the same

variable types names but we add the prefix 'code' before it. Example:

code unsigned char message[500];

This line would cause this huge array to be stored in the FLASH memory. This can be

interesting for displaying messages on an LCD screen.

To access the pins and the ports through programming, there are a number of pre-definedvariables (defined in the header file, as you shall see later) that dramatically simplifies that

task. There are 4 ports, Port 0 to Port 3, each one of them can be accessed using the char

variables P0, P1, P2 and P3 respectively. In those char types variables, each one of the 8 bits

represents a pin on the port. Additionally, you can access a single pin of a port using the bit

type variables PX_0 to PX_7, where X takes a value between 0 and 3, depending on the port

being accessed. For example P1_3 is the pin number 3 of port 1.

You can also define your own names, using the '#define' directive. Note that this is compiler

directive, meaning that the compiler will use this directive to read and understand the code,

but it is not a statement or command that can be translated to machine language. For example,

you could define the following:

#define LED1 P1_0


41/6341

With the definition above, the compiler will replace every occurrence of LED1 by P1_0. This

makes your code much more easier to read, especially when the new names you give make

more sense.

You could also define a numeric constant value like this:

#define led_on_time 184

Then, each time you write led on time, it will be replaced by 184. Note that this is not a

variable and accordingly, you cannot write something like:

led_on_time = 100;//That's wrong, you cannot change a constant's value in code.

The utility of using defined constants, appears when you want to adjust some delays in your

code, or some constant variables that are re-used many times within the code: With a

predefined constant, you only change it's value once, and it's applied to the whole code. that's

for sure apart from the fact that a word like led on time is much more comprehensive thansimply '184'!

Along this tutorial you will see how port names, and special function registers are used

exactly as variables, to control input/output operations and other features of the

microcontroller like timers, counters and interrupts.

Mathematical & logic operations

Now that you know how to declare variables, it is time to know how to handle them in your

program using mathematical and logic operations.

Mathematical operations:The most basic concept about mathematical operations in programming languages, is the '='

operator which is used to store the content of the expression at its right, into the variable at its

left. For example the following code will store the value of 'b' into 'a' :

a = b;

And subsequently, the following expression in totally invalid:

5 = b;

Since 5 in a constant, trying to store the content of 'b' in it will cause an error.

You can then perform all kind of mathematical operations, using the operators '+','-','*' and '/'.

You can also use brackets '( )' when needed. Example:

a =(5*b)+((a/b)*(a+b));

If you include 'math.h' header file, you will be able to use more advanced functions in your

equations like Sin, Cos and Tan trigonometric functions, absolute values and logarithmic

calculations like in the following example:

a =(c*cos(b))+sin(b);


42/6342

To be able to successfully use those functions in your programs, you have to know the type of

variables that those functions take as parameter and return as a result. For example a Cosine

function takes an angle in radians whose value is a float number between -65535 and 65535

and it will return a float value as a result. You can usually know those data types from the

'math.h' file itself, for example, the cosine function, like all the others is declared in the top of

the math header file, and you can read the line:

extern float cos (float val);

from this line you can deduce that the 'cos' function returns a float data type, and takes as a

parameter a float too. (the parameter is always between brackets.). Using the same technique,

you can easily know how to deal with the rest of the functions of the math header file. the

following table shows a short description of those functions:

Function Descriptionchar cabs (char val); Return an the absolute value of a charvariable.

int abs (int val); Return an the absolute value of a intvariable.

long labs (long val); Return an the absolute value of a longvariable.

float fabs (float val); Return an the absolute value of afloatvariable.

float sqrt (float val); Returns the square root of a float variable.

float exp (float val); Returns the value of the Euler number 'e' to the power of val

float log (float val); Returns the natural logarithm of val

float log10 (float val); Returns the common logarithm of val

float sin (float val); A set of standard trigonometric functions. They all take angles

measured in radians whose value have to be between -65535 and

65535.

float cos (float val);

float tan (float val);float asin (float val);

float acos (float val);

float atan (float val);

float sinh (float val);

float cosh (float val);

float tanh (float val);

float atan2 (float y, float

x);

This function calculates the arc tan of the ratio y / x, using the signs

of both x and y to determine the quadrant of the angle and return a

number ranging from -pi to pi.

float ceil (float val); Calculates the smallest integer that is bigger than val. Example:

ceil(4.3) = 5.

float floor (float val); Calculates the largest integer that is smaller than val. Example:

ceil(4.8) = 4.

float fmod (float x, float

y);

Returns the remainder of x / y. For example: fmod(15.0,4.0) = 3.

float pow (float x, float

y);

Returns x to the power y.

Logical operations:You can also perform logic operations with variables, like AND, OR and NOT operations,

using the following operators:Operator Description! NOT (bit level) Example: P1_0 = !P1_0;

~ NOT (byte level) Example: P1 = ~P1;


43/6343

& AND

| OR

Note that those logic operation are performed on the bit level of the registers. To understand

the effect of such operation on registers, it's easier to look at the bits of a variable (which is

composed of one or more register). For example, a NOT operation will invert all the bit of aregister. Those logic operators can be used in many ways to merge different bits of different

registers together.

For example, consider the variable 'P1', which is of type 'char', and hence stored in an 8-bit

register. Actually P1 is an SFR, whose 8 bits represents the 8 I/O pins of Port 1. It is required

in that example to clear the 4 lower bits of that register without changing the state of the 4

other which may be used by other equipment. This can be done using logical operators

according to the following code:

P1 = P1 & 0xF0; (Adding '0x' before a number indicates that it is a hexadecimal one)

Here, the value of P1 is ANDed with the variable 0xF0, which in the binary base is

'11110000'. Recalling the two following relations:

1 AND X = X

0 AND X = 0

(where 'X' can be any binary value)

You can deduce that the 4 higher bits of P1 will remain unchanged, while the 4 lower bits

will be cleared to 0.

By the way, note that you could also perform the same operation using a decimal variable

instead of a hexadecimal one, for example, the following code will have exactly the same

effect than the previous one (because 240 = F0 in HEX):

P1 = P1 & 240;

A similar types of operations that can be performed on a port, is to to set some of its bits to 1

without affecting the others. For example, to set the first and last bit of P1, without affecting

the other, the following source code can be used:

P1 = P1 | 0x81;

Here, P1 is ORed with the value 0x81, which is '10000001' in binary. Recalling the two

following relations:

1 OR X = 1

0 OR X = X

(where 'X' can be any binary value)

You can deduce that the first and last pins of P1 will be turned on, without affecting the state

of the other pins of port 1. Those are just a few example of the manipulations that can be

done to registers using logical operators. Logic operators can also be used to define veryspecific conditions, as you shall see in the next section.

The last types of logic operation studied in this tutorial is the shifting. It can be useful the


44/63


45/6345

== Equal to

Smaller than, bigger than.

= Smaller than or equal to, bigger than or equal to.

!= Not equal to

The 'If' code block can get a little more sophisticated by introducing the 'else' and 'else if'statement. Observe the following example source code:

if (expression_1) {

...

code block 1

...

}else if(expression_2) {

...

code block 2

...

}else if(expression_3) {...

code block 3

...

}else{

...

code block 4

...

}

Here, There are four different code blocks, only one shall be executed if and only if the

corresponding condition is true. The last code block will only be executed if none of the

previous expression is valid. Note that you can have as many 'else if' blocks as you need, each

one with its corresponding condition, BUT you can only have one 'else' block, which is

completely logical. However you can chose not to have and 'else' block at all if you want.

There are some other alternatives to the 'if...else' code block, that can provide faster execution

speeds, but also have some limitations and restrictions like the 'Select...case' code block. For

now, it is enough to understand the 'if...else' code block, whose performance is quite fair and

have a wide range of applications.

Another very important tool in the programming languages is the loop. In C language like inmany others, loops are usually restricted to certain number of loops like in the 'for' code block

or restricted to a certain condition like the 'while' block.

Let's start with the 'for' code block, which is a highly controllable and configurable loop.

consider the following example source code:

for(i=0;i


46/6346

The code will keep looping as long as the condition 'i


47/6347

A very common use of functions without return value is to create delays in a software,

consider the following function:

delay(unsigned int y){

unsigned int i;

for(i=0;i


48/6348

All C programs have this common organization scheme, sometimes it's followed, sometimes

it's not, however, it is imperative for this category of programming that this organization

scheme be followed in order to be able to develop your applications successfully. Any

application can be divided into the following parts, noting that is should be written in this

order:

a. Headers Includes and constants definitionsIn this part, header files (.h) are included into your source code. those headers files can be

system headers to declare the name of SFRs, to define new constants, or to include

mathematical functions like trigonometric functions, root square calculations or numbers

approximations. Header files can also contain your own functions that would be shared by

various programs.

b. Variables declarationsMore precisely, this part is dedicated to 'Global Variables' declarations. Variables declared in

this place can be used anywhere in the code. Usually in microcontroller programs, variablesare declared as global variables instead of local variables, unless your are running short of

RAM memory and want to save some space, so we use local variables, whose values will be

lost each time you switch from a function to another. To summarize, global variables as

easier to use and implement than local variables, but they consume more memory space.

c. functions' bodyHere you group all your functions. Those functions can be simple ones that can be called

from another place in your program, as they can be called from an 'interrupt vector'. In other

words, the sub-programs to be executed when an interrupt occurs is also written in this place.

d. InitializationThe particularity of this part is that it is executed only one time when the microcontroller was

just subjected to a 'RESET' or when power is just switched ON, then the processor continue

executing the rest of the program but never executes this part again. This particularity makes

it the perfect place in a program to initialize the values of some constants, or to define the

mode of operation of the timers, counters, interrupts, and other features of the

microcontroller.

e. Infinite loopAn infinite loop in a microcontroller program is what is going to keep it alive, because a

processor have to be allays running for the system to function, exactly like a heart have to bealways beating for a person to live. Usually this part is the core of any program, and its from

here that all the other functions are called and executed.

Simple C program for 89S52

Here is a very simple but complete example program to blink a LED. Actually it is the source

code of the example project that we are going to construct in the next part of the tutorial, but

for now it is important to concentrate on the programming to summarize the notions

discussed above.

#include #include

You will prompted to chose a name for your new project, Create a separate folder where all

the files of your project will be stored, chose a name and click save. The following window

will appear, where you will be asked to select a device for Target 'Target 1':


51/6351

From the list at the left, seek for the brand name ATMEL, then under ATMEL, select

AT89S52. You will notice that a brief description of the device appears on the right. Leave

the two upper check boxes unchecked and click OK. The AT89S52 will be called your

'Target device', which is the final destination of your source code. You will be asked whether

to 'copy standard 8051 startup code' click No.

click File, New, and something similar to the following window should appear. The box

named 'Text1' is where your code should be written later.


52/6352

Now you have to click 'File, Save as' and chose a file name for your source code ending with

the letter '.c'. You can name is 'code.c' for example, and click save. Then you have to add this

file to your project work space at the left as shown in the following screen shot:


53/6353

After right-clicking on 'source group 1', click on 'Add files to group...', then you will be

prompted to browse the file to add to 'source group 1', chose the file that you just saved,

eventually 'code.c' and add it to the source group. You will notice that the file is added to the

project tree at the left.

In some versions of this software you have to turn ON manually the option to generate HEXfiles. make sure it is turned ON, by right-clicking on target 1, Options for target 'target 1',

then under the 'output' tab, by checking the box 'generate HEX file'. This step is very

important as the HEX file is the compiled output of your project that is going to be

transferred to the microcontroller.

You can then start to write the source code in the window titled 'code.c' then before testing

your source code, you have to compile your source code, and correct eventual syntax errors.

In KEIL IDE, this step is called 'rebuild all targets' and has this icon: .


54/6354

You can use the output window to track eventual syntax errors, but also to check the FLASH

memory occupied by the program (code = 49) as well as the registers occupied in the RAM

(data = 9). If after rebuilding the targets, the 'output window' shows that there is0 error, then

you are ready to test the performance of your code. In keil, like in most development

environment, this step is called Debugging, and has this icon:. After clicking on the debug

icon, you will notice that some part of the user interface will change, some new icons willappear, like the run icon circled in the following figure:

Figure: 2.8.f


55/6355

You can click on the 'Run' icon and the execution of the program will start. In our example,

you can see the behavior of the pin 0 or port one, but clicking on 'peripherals, I/O ports, Port

1'. You can always stop the execution of the program by clicking on the stop button () and

you can simulate a reset by clicking on the 'reset' button .

You can also control the execution of the program using the following icons: which allowsyou to follow the execution step by step. Then, when you're finished with the debugging, you

can always return to the programming interface by clicking again on the debug button ().

There are many other features to discover in the KEIL IDE. You will easily discover them in

first couple hours of practice, and the more important of them will be presented along the rest

of this tutorial.

CHAPTER 9

FINAL ASSEMBLING AND TROUBLE SHOOTING

1. The micro-controller unit module was fixed on the body using screws and nuts.

2. The H-Bridge module was fixed on to the topof the body using screws and nuts.3. The motors extra edges were cut away and holes were drilled on its one arm to be attached

to body.

4. Using screws and hexagonal nuts, the motors were attached to the body in proper

alignment.

5. The sensor were attached at the front side and when any obstacle comes infront of it ,

robot stops .

6. Wheels were fixed on to the shafts of motors using glue and Caster was attached in the

front using its nut.

8. The micro-controller AT89S52 was taken and program was burned in it using SPI-PGM37

software.

9. The Metal sensor is attached at the front side. The signal which receiver were gettingwas of low voltage, so to increase the voltage we use the integrator .

10. During the fixing of motors, gears of one motor were damaged due to which the robots

movement was being hampered. This motor had to be replaced.

11. Also, the sensors position was difficult to adjust as it was touching the ground so we

placed it on the wooden sheet.

12. The robot was successfully assembled and made operational. The procedure took about

10 weeks.

CHAPTER 10

RESULT AND DISCUSSION

The SPY Robot was successfully assembled and after burning the program in the

AT89S52, all components were working properly and we could see live video

on laptop and movement of robot could be controlled by mobile.The result

is

based on the objective of the project. They are to build the robot that able to sense

obstacle when the robot detect the obstacle in front of it and to build a robot that able

to stop moving when there is metal a detected.

DISCUSSION

This robot is intelligent spy robot that in this robot there are many circuit attach to each

other like motor driver, IR sensor, metal detector and PIC main board. All board have

its connection to show that it related to each other for example IR sensor use to detect

object in front of it and after the object detected, it send signal to comparator to convert

the signal to digital. Then the digital signal logic 1 at 3-5 Volts will receive by main

board that consist PIC to execute the signal. After the signal is executed, the signal is

send to motor driver where motor driver will receive the signal of DC motor directionand DC motor speed.

DC motor is like execute device where when the sensor sense object , it will send to PIC

and PIC send the signal to those motors to operate. Speed control is most important

part in programming to control motor because speed control will cause the robot to

avoid collision into the object because there are inertia when the robot moving. The

robot will not able to stop on time if the speed is high

CHAPTER 11FUTURE PROSPECTS

1 . To reduce the size of unit we can use smd.

2. Replacement of transmitter with low power transmitter & receiver with highly sensitive

receiver to reduce the power consumption

3 . The range can be increased.

Additional modules can be added to this application any time. It can be modified in future to

add more features. Provisions have been made to upgrade the software.

As all the resources used to develop this application were easily available, this application

has a cost benefit ratio of more than one. This makes this application of great use in future.
