Won 1st Prize in GEC, Rajkot

A state level technical event 'Brizingr' was held at Government Engineering College, Rajkot on 27th Feb.  Our project, SNAKE ROBOT, won 1st prize in the Project Presentation Competition.  Had faced few hurdles there, but finally we came through. Each one of received a certificate and 'Headphones' as prize.  Now we are trying various other kind of motions like reverse motion, ability to overcome obstacles etc.  I recently read a book and remember few lines by Dr. A P J Abdul Kalam, which are apt for our project.
It is not a disgrace to not reach the stars,
But it is a disgrace to have no stars to reach for.......
Striving to achieve the stars... :)

Temperature displayed in LCD

Previously we had interfaced temperature sensor (LM 35) and displayed the result on Seven Segment. Now we moved one step ahead and tried to display it on LCD.    

Interfacing PIR sensor

PIR sensor stands Passive Infrared Sensor. It uses Pyroelectric material. This sensor is used to detect moving objects. The sensor compares the body heat of the object with the surrounding temperature. It can be very useful for detecting obstacles at night. The detailed information of this sensor can be obtained at http://www.ladyada.net/learn/sensors/pir.html.
