Watermill
Water Wheel Well A water wheel is a machine for converting the energy of free-flowing or falling water into useful forms of power, often in a watermill. It consists of large wheel with a number of buckets or blades arranged on the rim of the wheel. Here, we tried to make a water wheel well using the [...]
Power Saver
Power Saver Power Saver is a very simple technique which can be used for electric energy conservation. Power Saver has one touch sensor and from i-pitara brick, output can be given to domestic electric appliances like fan, tube light, TV, AC. Here output is given to fan and light. [...]

TRI ISP (Beta)
The 4 step guide to program your P89v51RD2 controller using TRI ISP Step 1: Port Settings Port Number: Select the serial communication port of your PC to which the target device is connected. Most present day IBM compatible PCs have a single serial communication port with an address of COM1. Speed: Select the burning speed. [...]
Simple Conductivity sensor to detect metals
Conductivity Test In order to detect the presence of conductors,the simplest test is the Conductivity Test. Conductivity of a substance is defined as ‘the ability or power to conduct or transmit heat, electricity or sound’. Here what we use is the ability to transmit electricity. When an electrical potential difference is placed across a conductor, [...]
Bull in the Ring
Work D Work Done By- Pranav Ramkrishnan, Std.12th Objective: This is an extremely simplistic, yet interesting application using the i-Mach kit to make something that can do real and useful work. The basic aim of this task is to build and program an autonomous robot that can detect objects within its surrounding environment and having [...]
Education means…
More over robotics and embedded systems, an aspect that obviously concerns all of us as citizens of a developing nation is the purpose of education. Do we as knowledge donors or seekers comprehend what education has to offer? More than an article, this is meant to be an open discussion to reaffirm the fact that [...]
The Modified Flood Fill Simulator
Article By Pranjal Chaubey => This article will first discuss the Flood Fill algorithm, modified flood fill’s description and implementation will be built on that. After the boring theory session, the actual C implementation of the algorithm will be discussed and a sample simulator program is provided at the end of this article.
