OBJECTIVE
The main object of this project is to:
y y

To facilitate human being to detect metal. To evolve an ideal application of MCU.

PRINCIPLE
The basic principle depends upon "Electromagnetic induction". It works on the principle of changing of magnetic field due to the passing of metallic object near to it.

Working:
In this project we use watch dog timer(WDT) module of 16f 688 . y the project is based on two oscillators y Internal oscillator y External oscillator y Internal oscillator is of fixed value and the external is variable.
y

Cont....
y

The external oscillator is made by an inductor air filled coil and capacitors . Due to internal oscillator WDT after 1ms. In start the first value of external oscillator is store as calibrated value .

Cont...
After 1ms MCU compare the new value of oscillator with stored value. y if there is metal near the inductor, the value of the external oscillator will change. y We make decision on this comparison. y the change in oscillator is indicated by two LED.
y

Cont...
If there is metal near the coil value of the oscillator change. y If it is greater then 2nd LED glow. y if its value is less then 1st LED glow. y If there is no metal no led glow.
