There are various projects based on sensors. And this is a low cost Microcontroller based project. Microcontroller based LPG gas leakage system using MQ6 (LPG Gas) sensor with Buzzer indication has applications in various areas including Industrial application, domestic application. this system is very useful in hotels ,home,car,lpg agencies . This system has advance safety standard and most important this helps prevent accident occurred because of fire. It also useful in protecting human life ,wealth and property . MQ6 (LPG Gas) sensor is used to detect LPG leakage this sensor has quick response time it responding very short period of time. Output of MQ6 sensor is given to Comparator. And output of comparator IC is given to microcontroller 89s51. Liquid crystal display – LCD display shows a message when MQ6 crosses threshold level. And also a Buzzer is turned on to give Alert indication. We have provided a potentiometer which is used to vary the threshold level of comparator which decides the threshold level of leakage condition.

LASER LIGHT SECURITY ALARM.....

LASER LIGHT SECURITY ALARM BY DEVANANDA REDDY A laser alarm system operates by projecting a beam of invisible laser light across a doorway or window opening. When the light is broken, it activates a buzzer or alarm. The principles are very similar to those of lower tech burglar alarms. A laser alarm requires only slightly more sophisticated electronics and can be put together by anyone with a soldering gun and a knack for tinkering with basic circuits and transistors. Objective To make and study the functions of a Laser Security System. Theory This system for security uses the combination of LASER light and LDR. The LDR module has an onboard potentiometer to adjust the sensitivity of LDR, so that it only senses laser light falling onto it. The concept is quite simple and similar to what we see in movies where antique, priceless ornaments are protected under laser lights. As someone crosses these lights, an alarm runs on to indicate unauthorised presence. This p

Smartphone to Digital Microscope Conversion

Smartphone to Digital Microscope Conversion! By DEVANANDA REDDY The world is an interesting place, but it's fascinating up close.  Through the lens of a microscope you can find details that you would otherwise never notice.  But now you can. This instructable will show you how to build a stand for about $10 that will transform your smartphone into a powerful digital microscope. This DIY conversion stand is more than capable of functioning in an actual laboratory setting. With magnification levels as high as  175x  375x  Edit:  with the addition of a second lens  magnification can be as high as 375x , plant cells and their nuclei are easily observed!  In addition to allowing the observation of cells, this setup also produces stunning macro photography. The photos in this instructable were taken with an iPhone 4S. Watch the video below for a quick overview of the project! Step 1: Materials and Tools The cost of this p
