Keypads are widely used input devices being used in various electronics and embedded projects. They are used to take inputs in the form of numbers and albhabets, and feed the same into system for further processing. In this tutorial we are going to interface a 4x4 matrix keypad with 8051 microcontroller.

INFRARED TRACKING SYSTEM USING ATMEGA32
Our project is an infrared (IR) tracking system. A beacon, placed on the object to be tracked, continuously emits infrared signals in all directions. The signals coming from the beacon are detected by 2 IR receivers mounted on 2 stepper motors, which rotate independently and are in separate locations.

Connecting Piezo Speaker to ATmega32 Microcontroller
An ATMega32 sound generator code is extremely simple to implement. Almost any GPIO pin can drive a piezo buzzer, and the output quality is fine for producing some beeps. The code shown here is the simplest one I remember using basic physics, and since it does not use PWM it could be implemented on almost any microcontroller.

Digital Voltmeter using AVR Microcontrolelr
In this project we are going to design a 25V range digital voltmeter by using ATMEGA32A microcontroller. In ATMEGA, we are going to use 10bit ADC (Analog to Digital Converter) to build a digital voltmeter. Now the ADC in ATMEGA can not take a input more than +5V, so for getting a higher range we are going to use a voltage divider circuit.

RFID Based Toll Plaza System
In this project we are going to design a RFID based toll plaza system for security purposes. So this system open gates and allow people only with the authorized RFID tags. The authorized tags holder ID’s are programmed in to the ATMEGA Microcontroller and only those holders are allowed to leave or enter the premises.

8051 Microcontroller Based Gesture Controlled Robot
A Gesture Controlled robot is a kind of robot which can be controlled by your hand gestures not by old buttons.You just need to wear a small transmitting device in your hand which included an acceleration meter. This will transmit an appropriate command to the robot so that it can do whatever we want.

Beagleboard based Dancing SpiderBot
The E.L.F. robot dances to the beat of any song it hears. One of the coolest things about this project is that its creator, John Jensen, had no previous hardware building experience prior to this project. This quick learner made the SpiderBot while deployed to Iraq. He chose the BeagleBoard to give the spider plenty of speed and well-defined dance moves.
