What is PC Data Acquisition? 2008-06-06 01:36:52 In general, PC data acquisition is data acquisition from a board or card designed to interface with a personal computer. These boards can be configured to work in a wide variety of configurations including the installation in PCI, ISA or PCMCIA slots. Typical data acquisition products include analog I/O, analog output, digital I/O and serial communications boards that are designed to interface wit Read more:Acquisition

Honeybee Traffic Counter 2008-05-27 17:12:50 I designed a circuit similar to this one a long time ago to help a beekeeper count the number of bees going into or out of a hive. The low power circuit uses a slotted opto-sensor to detect the passing bees. The circuit advances an electronic counting module whenever a honeybee passes through the sensor. The device only counts the number of bees going through the sensor. A different circuit would Read more:Honeybee

Fruit Fly Strobe 2008-05-25 04:39:56 The circuit is a standard pulse generator using two 555 timers (in a single package). Approximate rate adjustment is 1-100 Hz, pulse width is 1 ms-0.5 sec. In single pulse mode, one pulse of the set width is generated when the trigger button is pushed. The button is not debounced, so sometimes you get two pulses. The variable resistor on the left controls rate, the one on the right controls pulse Read more:Fruit
Telemetry Transmitter for Small Animal 2008-05-25 04:02:46 The goal of this project was to build a small, cheap, light-weight telemetry transmitter to attach to a small animal. This version uses a commercial, low-power transmitter, the Radiotronix RCT-433-AS. The design worked well, but has a relatively high current draw of about 500 microamps. A CR1620 lithium coin cell runs the circuit for about a week. The current version uses a pair of CMOS oscillator Read more:Transmitter

Inexpensive Wireless Telemetry For Animal Tracking 2008-05-23 02:37:48 This project explored the feasibility of creating a cost-effective transmitter receiver pair to replace commercially available 150 MHz devices used in animal telemetry. Distance measurements of test circuits transmitting at 418 MHz were taken over clear ground and in forested areas. These measurements show a range of 300-400 feet in forest underbrush and acceptable dropoff over distance, demonstra Read more:Animal

Logger using a Stamp
II connected to a PC serial port. I was planing on using the DS1620, but used a LM335 temperature sensor because it only needs a two wire interface and it is easy to waterproof. All i did to waterproof it was to put some heat sink tubing around the 3 wires then around the hole sensor.Here is a screen shot of the V Read more:Building

Voice Activated Switch 2008-05-21 16:13:24 This circuit uses an MC2830 to form a voice activated switch (VOX). A traditional VOX circuit is unable to distinguish between voice and noise in the incoming signal. In a noisy environment, the switch is often triggered by noise, or the activation sensitivity must be turned down.This circuit overcomes this weakness. The switch is activated by voice level above the noise and not activated by backg Read more:Voice
RF Dual DC Motors Controller 2008-05-21 16:04:05 The transmitter circuit consists of WZ-X01 RF module, Holtek HT-640 encoder and 8 bit A/D converter. U1 ADC0804 converts the analog voltage to digital data, U2 encodes that data (D0~D6) along with D6, D7 and transmitting through the RF transmitter module.The potentiometer VR1 varies the voltage to the A/D U1 pin6, since only the lower 6 bits are used; the trim pot VR2 has to adjust so that the max Read more:Motors

What is SCADA, and What Can It Do for You? 2008-05-20 03:45:08 What is SCADA, and What Can It Do for You?SCADA is not a specific technology, but a type of application. SCADA stands for Supervisory Control and Data Acquisition — any application that gets data about a system in order to control that system is a SCADA application. A SCADA application has two elements:The process/system/machinery you want to monitor a control — this can be a power plant, a w
How SCADA Systems Work? 2008-05-20 03:43:51 A SCADA system performs four functions:1. Data acquisition2. Networked data communication3. Data presentation4. ControlThese functions are performed by four kinds of SCADA components:Sensors (either digital or analog) and control relays that directly interface with the managed system.Remote telemetry units (RTUs).

Remote Sensing Techniques -The Solar system and Planetory Exploration 2008-05-11 12:31:52 Remote sensing by imaging, as applied to Earth, goes back to the middle of the 19th Century, when balloonists took the first photos. As applied to the rest of the solar system, we must look to the first observations (documented by sketches) made by Galileo in 1610, when he turned a telescope to the heavens and caught a glimpse of the surface complexities on our nearest neighbor, the Moon. Later, h Read more:Remote

How Does A Radar Work 2008-05-11 02:02:23 A radar can tell where things are and how fast they are moving. How does it do this? It works very much like a radio or TV station. Consider two radio stations located on a mountain transmitting to a nearby city. Why is it that you can listen to either one and they do not interfere with each other? They transmit on different frequencies; that is, their waves vibrate at different frequences. A spec Read more:Radar
