SNO PROJECT NAME

1 Auto Night Lamp Using LED:

Auto Night Lamp Using High Power LEDs is a circuit which turns ON

the LED lights interfaced to it at night time and it turns OFF the lights

automatically when it is day. It is a light sensing device as it uses a light

dependent resistor. It is a very useful circuit especially when used in

street lights which can be turned ON and OFF automatically.

2 Anti Bag Snatching Alarm:

This is a simple alarm circuit to thwart snatching of your valuables while

travelling. The circuit kept in your bag or suitcase sounds a loud alarm,

simulating a police horn, if someone attempts to snatch your bag or

suitcase. This will draw the attention of other passengers and the

burglar can be caught red handed. In the standby mode, the circuit is

locked by a plug and socket arrangement (a mono plug with shorted

leads plugged into the mono-jack socket of the unit). When the burglar

tries to snatch the bag, the plug detaches from the unit’s socket and

activates the alarm.

3 Automatic Plant Watering System:

This one of the most useful project in our real life. It helps us in watering

plants automatically without any human interference. We may also call

SNO PROJECT NAME

it as Automatic plant irrigation system. We know that people do not pour

the water on to the plants in their gardens when they go to vacation or

often forget to water plants. As a result, there is a chance to get the

plants damaged. This project is an excellent solution for such kind of

problems.

4 Water Level Indicator:

The Water Level Indicator employs a simple mechanism to detect and

indicate the water level in an overhead tank or any other water

container. The sensing is done by using a set of nine probes which are

placed at nine different levels on the wall of the tank (with probe1 to

probe8 placed in ascending order of height, common probe (i.e. a

supply carrying probe) is placed at the base of the tank). The level 8

represents the “tank full” condition while level 1 represents the “tank

empty” condition. It can be used in automatic ON and OFF of the motor

depending on the water level. It can also be used as fuel level indicator

in vehicles.

5 IR Remote Control Switch:

By using this circuit, we can control any house hold appliance with the

help of remote. Electronic appliances like television, radio, air

SNO PROJECT NAME

conditioner etc. can be controlled. In this project, there are two parts:

one is the transmitting section (remote) and the other is receiving

section which is stable and connected to the appliance.

6 Battery Charger Circuit Using SCR:

Here is the circuit diagram of battery charger circuit using Silicon

Controlled Rectifier. Using this circuit, we can automatically charge a

battery when its charge is below a threshold and the circuit is disabled

when the battery attains full charge. SCR is used in rectification circuits,

inverter circuits, power control circuits, etc.

7 Stun Gun Circuit:

This Stun gun circuit produces high voltage and low current signal. It is

mostly used as a weapon to stun or send shock waves to the target with

the intention to weaken or paralyze it. It can be use in modern warfare,

protection from intruders or animals.

8 Digital Voltmeter Circuit using ICL7107:

Here we designed an analog to digital converter to work as a Digital

Voltmeter using a low power, three and half digit A/D converter IC

L7107. It can be used to measure both AC and DC voltages in the

SNO PROJECT NAME

range of 200 mV to 2 V with an interval of 0.001 V.

9 Variable Power Supply and Charger:

This is a circuit which helps to check or test your electronic projects at

your workbench and also to charge the Mobile phone batteries. This

circuit is also very useful during power cuts (blackouts) as it can also

work as an emergency light.

10 Voltage Doubler Circuit:

This is another kind of circuit which helps to convert 12V DC to 24V DC.

It can be used in appliances that require 24 V DC supply like radios,

lights, automobile electronics, special purpose UPS etc.

11 Celsius Scale Thermometer using AT89C51:

This Celsius Scale Thermometer circuit is designed using AT89C51

(microcontroller) and LM35 (analog temperature sensor). This circuit

works on analog to digital conversion principle. The temperature can be

displayed using an LCD. It can be used at homes, mobile places like

cars to keep a track of the temperature.

12 Cell Phone Detector:

SNO PROJECT NAME

This is a simple circuit which helps to detect the presence of an

activated cell phone by detecting the signals in the frequency range of

0.9 to 3GHz. It helps in tracking mobile phones particularly in

examination halls or important conferences. It can also be used to

detect the mobile phones of spies or in case of unauthorized data

transmission. The radius of this detector is 1.5 meters.

13 Temperature Controlled DC Fan using Microcontroller:

The main principle of the circuit is to switch ON the fan connected to DC

motor when the temperature (measured through a temperature sensor)

is greater than a threshold value. This can be used in home applications

particularly in CPU to reduce heat by automatically switching ON the

fan.

14 Stress Meter:

This stress monitor lets you assess your emotional pain. It can indicate

three levels of stress: Relaxed, Moderate and High levels with the help

of a series of LEDs (combination of green, yellow and red). If the stress

is very high, it gives visual indication through the LED display along with

a warning beep. The gadget is small enough to be worn around the

SNO PROJECT NAME

wrist.

15 Bidirectional Photoelectric System:

Photoelectric detectors are usually unidirectional i.e. they are able to

detect when someone enters a particular area but not when leaves it.

On the contrary, a system able to detect movement in both directions

could be useful to control shops, rooms etc. If installed in a shop it could

allow knowing if all customers entering the premises have left them at

the end of the day. Or, at home, it could be used to switch on the light

(or any other electric device) when one enters the room and to switch

off the electric device when he or she leaves it. Additionally it can be

used to control the number of people as this circuit switches off the

electrical device only after the last person leaves the area.

16 Self-powered Fast Battery-Tester:

This circuit runs a fast battery test without the need of power supply or

expensive moving-coil voltmeters. It features two ranges depending on

the position of the switch. In one position, the device can test 3V to 15V

batteries and when the position of the switch is changed, only 1.5V

batteries can be tested. A set of LEDs are used to indicate the charge
SNO PROJECT NAME

of the battery (i.e. full, weak or empty).

17 Low Cost FM Booster:

Here is a low-cost circuit of an FM booster that can be used to listen to

programs from distant FM stations clearly. The circuit comprises a

common-emitter tuned RF preamplifier wired around VHF/UHF

transistor 2SC2570. It boosts the FM reception by amplifying the weak

FM signals.

18 Self-Powered Door Bell Watcher:

This very simple and self-powered device was conceived to allow a

person to monitor if someone has rung his home door-bell when he was

out. The circuit must be simply connected to the two door-bell-coil

leads. An LED or a buzzer (or both) can be used to indicate the event

(event is door-bell being pressed). It can store the event for a minimum

of 15 days. It can be used for any mains supplied device like computer,

television etc.

19 Fridge door Alarm:

This fridge door alarm is a light sensing circuit. It should be placed in

the fridge (enclosed in a small box) near the lamp or close to the
SNO PROJECT NAME

opening. When the door is opened, the light from the lamp or outside

will fall on it and the buzzer goes off for a certain time and stops. This

process repeats until the door is closed. This circuit is useful when the

fridge door is not closed or it is kept open for a long time.

Design of PM Generator for A Vertical Axis Wind Turbine:

The use of wind power is increasing in today’s World where the usage

of non-renewable fossil fuels is at its peaks. There are many systems

that convert wind energy to electrical energy. A direct driven permanent

magnet generator has been designed specifically for vertical axis wind

turbine. The generator maintains high efficiency and has high torque

capability for the entire operational regime.

21 Energy Leak Detector:

This circuit is primarily used to detect draughts around doors and

windows which cause energy leaks. This circuit is essentially a

temperature sensor and can be used where sensitive temperature

detection is needed. It makes use of a comparator and detects the

slight changes in temperature by comparing it to room temperature

(ambient temperature). A couple of LED’s (RED and GREEN) are used

SNO PROJECT NAME

to indicate the change in temperature whether it is above or below the

room temperature.

22 Infra-red Level Detector:

This circuit is a level sensor or proximity sensor. It can be used to

detect the level of a liquid in a tank without any contact. It operates by

detecting the distance from the target by reflection of an infrared beam.

The range of the device can be set from a few cm. to about 50 cm. by

means of a trimmer. The range of the device is dependent on the

infrared transmitting and receiving LED’s used and is mostly affected by

the color of the reflecting surface. Surfaces with black color greatly

lower the device's sensitivity.

24 Power Management through Energy Harvesting Concept:

Portable systems are generally battery operated. In order to operate the

device for a longer duration, the energy from the battery must be

efficiently used. An alternative, that can act as a supplement or a

replacement to batteries is harvesting energy from environment. The

efficient use of harvested energy is described.

25 Room Noise Detector:

The room noise detector circuit can detect the intensity of noise in a

room and signal through a series of flashing LED’s. Three threshold

noise levels like 50dB, 70dB and 85dB are fixed. If the noise in the

room exceeds a particular threshold, it is indicated with the help of

LED’s. A miniature electret microphone is used to detect the noise.
