GPS BASED BORDER ALERT SYSTEM FOR FISHERMEN WITH BOAT SPEEDOMETER
In this modern, fast moving and insecure world, it is become a basic necessity to be aware of one’s safety. Maximum risks occur for fishermen in situations where they travel on a boat for fishing. In some situations they should not move after some point and they should not enter into other countries area. There is a real necessity in designing a system that can track the vehicle and send the information about the vehicle to the concerned person and alert the fishermen also.
The system that a function as a tracking and a security system has been designed that uses main underlying concept which is GPS (Global Positioning System). This system can deal with both place and security. The VMSS (Vehicle Monitoring and Security System) is a GPS based vehicle tracking system that is used for security applications as well.
The main application of this system is tracking the vehicle to which the GPS is connected, giving the information about its position whenever required and for the security of each person travelling by the vehicle. This is done with the help of the GPS satellite and the GPS module attached to the vehicle which needs to be tracked.
The Global Positioning System (GPS) is a satellite-based navigation system made up of a network of 24 satellites placed into orbit by the U.S. Department of Defense. GPS was originally intended for military applications, but in the 1980s, the government made the system available for civilian use. GPS works in any weather conditions, anywhere in the world, 24 hours a day.
The GPS antenna present in the GPS module receives the information from the GPS satellite and it reveals the position information. This information received from the GPS antenna is sent to the controlling station where it is decoded. Thus, the complete data related to the vehicle is available at the controlling unit.
This information is sent to the owner or to the concerned person continuously using a GPS modem. This GPS modem has an antenna too. The information about the vehicle can also be displayed on LCD. If the person crosses the boarder then he checks the data coming from GPS and he alerted.
WIRELESS DATA LOGGER USING RF COMMUNICATION
The project deals with the design and development of hardware and software for eight channel data logger system. A data logger (also datalogger or data recorder) is an electronic device that records data over time or in relation to location either with a built in instrument or sensor or by using external instruments and sensors. One of the primary advantages of using these data loggers is the ability to automatically and continuously collect data on a 24-hour basis.
The data which are recorded continuously in this project are Temperature, Intensity and Humidity. These analog quantities are taken and converted into corresponding digital values using an eight channel ADC. These converted digital values are transmitted from the microcontroller using RF transmitter and an encoder. These values are received at the receiver end using RF receiver and a decoder.
The RF modules used here are 2.4 GHz. The processed data from ADC is sent to microcontroller. The microcontroller passes this data to the RF transmitter. At the receiving end, the RF receiver receives this data, gives it in the single bit data into 8-bit data and presents it to the microcontroller. Now, it is the job of the controller to read the data and display the same data on LCD.
WEATHER MONITORING SYSTEM IN REMOTE PLACES USING GSM
The objective of this project is to develop a weather monitoring system and monitor the parameters like temperature, humidity, light intensity etc in remote places. Different sensors are used for different parameter measurement. Since all the sensors outputs analog values, these analog values has to be converted into digital data and should be presented to the controlling for further processing.
ADC is used to convert these analog parameters into digital values. These digital values are then passed to the controller. This controller will be interfaced with the GSM modem. All this arrangement will be fixed at a place in remote area and the processed data will be sent to the user mobile who is actually monitoring this unit. This is all done with the help of wireless concept, GSM. The parameters are also displayed on the LCD.
