Recently technological and population development, the usage of vehicles are rapidly increasing and at the same time the occurrence accident is also increased. Hence, the value of human life is ignored. No one can prevent the accident, but can save their life by expediting the ambulance to the hospital in time. A new vivid scheme called Intelligent Accident detection system is introduced. The objective of this scheme is to minimize the delay caused by traffic congestion and to provide the smooth flow of emergency vehicles. The concept of this scheme is to green the traffic signal in the path of ambulance automatically with the help of RF module. So that the ambulance can reach the spot in time and human life can be saved and the accident location is identified sends the accident location immediately to the main server. The main server finds the nearest ambulance to the accident zone and sends the exact accident location to the emergency vehicle. The control unit monitors the ambulance and provides the shortest path to the ambulance at the same time it controls the traffic light according to the ambulance location and thus arriving at the hospital safely. This scheme is fully automated, thus it locates the accident spot accurately, controls the traffic lights, provide the shortest path to reach the location and to the hospital in time.

Earlier people used to guess what was going on in others mind by their face expressions. But nowadays it’s not possible to say something about one’s mood and what’s going on in their mind. Computer which is used for doing works can also be used to know the Physical and emotional expressions of humans which is made possible by “BLUE EYES” technology. In this people team up with Computers. The PC can talk, listen or shriek so anyone might hear with the assistance of discourse acknowledgment and facial acknowledgment systems, Computers accumulates data from the clients and begins cooperating with them as indicated by their state of mind varieties. Computer perceives your passionate levels by a basic touch on the mouse and it can communicate with us as a close accomplice. The machine feels your nearness; confirms your personality and begins collaborating with you and even it will dial and call to your home at any critical circumstances. This all is occurring with this "Blue Eyes" technology. This technology makes use of Bluetooth and other developing technologies. “BLUE EYES” can create miracles in the near future. This paper gives the over view of this technology. This technology has both hardware and software. Hardware consists of two parts-1) Data Acquisition Unit.2) Central System Unit. Data Acquisition Unit is a mobile part of the system. They fetch the physiological data from the sensor and send it to the central system to be proceed. For accomplishing the task the device must manage wireless Bluetooth connection (connection establishment, authentication and termination). Central System Unit hardware is the second peer of the wireless connection. The box contains a Bluetooth module and a PCM codec for voice data transmission. The module is interfaced to a PC using a parallel, serial and USB cable. The audio data is accessible through standard mini-jack sockets over view of central system unit. The task of BLUE EYE software is to look after working operators' physiological condition. The software performs real time buffering of the incoming data, real-time physiological data analysis and alarm triggering to assure instant reaction on the operator’s condition change.

This modulation method is based on selective virtual loop mapping, to achieve dynamic capacitor voltage balance without the help of an extra compensation signal. The concept of virtual sub module (VSM) is first established, and by changing the loop mapping relationships between the VSMs and the real submodules, the voltages of the upper/lower arm’s capacitors can be well balanced. This method does not requiring sorting voltages from highest to lowest, and just identify the MIN and MAX capacitor voltage’s index which makes it suitable for a modular multilevel converter with a large number of submodules in one arm. Compared to carrier phase-shifted PWM (CPSPWM), this method is more easily to be realized in field-programmable gate array and is conducive to the control of circulating current. Its feasibility and validity have been verified by simulations.

Agriculture is the main source of income for the majority of the Indian population and therefore has great impact on the economy of the country. But these days, as people are focusing on technology more and more, less people are willing to do something menial like farming. Farming is an activity that depends heavily on the conditions present in the environment surrounding the agricultural field. The work of the farmer is affected by the natural conditions such as climate, topography, etc. This project implements the emerging applications of IoT technology. Using IoT networks, a control system is being proposed that will act as an embedded system which can monitor and control an irrigation and moisture sensing system. The system also consists of fully automated irrigation, fertilizer preparation, fertilizer distribution and pesticide distribution system. The method employed is to continuously monitor the soil moisture level to decide whether irrigation is needed, and how much water is required in the soil. The objective of this project is to decrease human involvement in and increase the efficiency of farming process.

Traffic light control systems are widely used to monitor and control the flow of automobiles through the junction of many roads. However, the synchronization of multiple traffic light systems at adjacent intersections is a complicated problem given the various parameters involved. Conventional systems concentrate mainly on allotting equal time to all the lanes. In addition, the mutual interference between adjacent traffic light systems, the disparity of cars flow with time, the accidents, the passage of emergency vehicles, and the pedestrian crossing are not implemented in the existing traffic system. This leads to traffic jam and congestion. The paper propose a system based on ATMEG32 microcontroller that evaluates the traffic density using Laser sensors and accomplishes dynamic timing slots with different levels. Moreover, a portable controller device is designed to solve the problem of emergency vehicles stuck in the overcrowded roads and notifying the vehicles the current traffic scenario.

A myoelectric prosthetic arm can replace the missing arm that has been lost due to accident or diseases. This physical impairment limits the motor abilities of human arm. Our project aims to develop a cost effective arm using surface EMG electrodes. The muscle signals are collected using a sensor, processed and given to a microcontroller to rotate the servo motors accordingly. The magnitude of voltage signal decides the servo motor to be operated.

Communication is fundamental human right. Sign language is the normal way of communication for deaf and dumb people among themselves and with normal people. Still there exists a large communication gap between normal people and disabled people since normal people often find it difficult to interpret the sign language. To minimize this gap we propose a new methodology which converts sign language to text. It mainly consists of the flex sensors to capture the hand gestures and the recognized character is to a smartphone. This way disabled people are able to communicate with the normal people and vice versa.

Transformers are important elements in the process of transmission and distribution of electricity. Transformer is one of the vital and costliest components of electrical industry. As large number of distribution transformers are installed over a wide area, monitoring and maintenance of these transformers is an important issue. Therefore this paper presents the system which monitor different parameters of distribution transformer and these data are continuously updated on to a webpage using IOT. If any abnormality occurs, the system sends alert messages to the concerned person and an electronic relay operates. As the inductive load increases there will be a decrease in power factor, therefore this system incorporates a power factor improvement mechanism by switching capacitor banks. The main objective of this project is to develop a system which will help the utilities in the protection of transformer and identify problems before any catastrophic failure.

This paper’s objective aids in bridging the gap between the dreams of a common man to the reality. “Stand on Wheels” is an aid for the bedridden ones, mainly for those who are paralyzed down from hip. It is mainly a custom standing wheelchair which is made affordable to all sectors of society. We are lending our hands to those bedridden people who want to stand. With our technology, we have brought the cost of such existing wheelchairs down. We aimed to design a new electrical system in wheelchairs to help people stand up safely without much effort, simpler in structure, less power consuming and more economic. The standing wheelchair designed will help the people with disability to surge self-esteem, reach objects placed high, deliver speech on podium or even to start a firm on his own. It also reduces the diseases like Osteoporosis and related issues. This project is being made to bring a person back to his feet in real life.

Identifying and repairing potholes on the roads is labour intensive and expensive. It typically requires three or four people to do the monotonous job in difficult environments. So this is a great opportunity for a type of robotic technology to be introduced for the same. This robotic project aims to develop a remote controlled vehicle which can be used to help fill the potholes and sunken trenches on the roads. The robotic vehicle will consist of scanners mounted on it to identify the road surface features and determine whether an object is a hole, bump, manhole cover or crack and send necessary feedback signals to the controller on the vehicle. Any anomalies will be cleaned with high pressure air or vacuum. After identifying the cracks on the surface a set of pipes will carry the necessary filling material to repair and patch the cracks. Again the quality of repair will be scanned. The vehicle will be designed to be an all-terrain vehicle which can move through difficult surfaces and protective coverings will be provided to keep the controller and other important circuit connections safe. Safe execution of road construction using this robotic vehicle technology will contribute to the improvement of productivity and quality of work by removing workers from cumbersome, repetitive, and often hazardous environments.

According to the problems of lithium battery, which has abroad application prospects, in the process of charging, by using of the constant current to constant voltage charging method, this paper designs a smart fast charging system based on the ATMEGA128 microcontroller and LTC4100 battery charging controller. The core modules of the MCU control and charging circuit are mainly designed to achieve the efficient and fast charging. During the process of charging, the system can automatically track the acceptable charging current of lithium battery, and monitor the charging current, voltage and temperature to realize the intelligent and precise control for the whole charging process, which can guarantee that lithium battery is neither over-charge nor less-charge. As overcharging of lithium batteries affect the efficiency and life of the battery, our project aims to overcome this problem by introducing 3 mode charger and this charger will allow the user to know about the charging periods and also turnoff the supply input to the device. Along with this operation the charger is able to perform conventional mode of charging with the charging circuits which can overcome current or voltage fluctuations. Another mode is to step up or step down voltage to charge various other devices than mobile battery. In order to achieve this goal several tasks need to be performed.

Aim of this project is to inform doctor about a patient’s condition, who is bedridden at home, on his portable computer or tablet. It is really expensive to admit the bedridden patient in hospital for a very long duration of time. This project gives a gadget which will persistently screen the indispensable parameters, for example heartbeat blood pressure, temperature of patient and do information logging ceaselessly. If any parameter crosses a safe minimal level, then an alert will be sent to the doctor by means of wifi and emergency actions would take place accordingly. In the event that any parameter crosses safe minimal level, this unit additionally raises an alert, furthermore speaks with the concerned specialist by the method of sending SMS through IOT based system. A patient observing programming application is actualized to store information that can be later downloaded to a doctor's workstation for investigation and finding.

This paper starts by recognizing a distinction between mind and cognition, and by positing that cognition is an aspect of mind and propose this as a working hypothesis a Separability Hypothesis which posits that¬¬ can factor off architecture for cognition from a more general architecture for mind, thus avoiding a number of philosophical objections that have been raised about the "Strong AI" hypothesis. Thus the search for an architectural level which will explain all the interesting phenomena of cognition is likely to be futile. Computer-aided engineering has been applied to heavy current electrical engineering, embracing mainly the areas of electric power systems and electrical machines and drives, is used to demonstrate the potential for the application of artificial intelligence in these areas. There are a number of levels which interact, unlike in the computer model, and this interaction makes explanation of even relatively simple cognitive phenomena in terms of one level quite incomplete. Due to artificial intelligence techniques are permanent and consistent and the ability of ease documentation and reproduction this features can impart in development of new technologies in high tension power supplies and in other fields of electrical engineering.

The mind-to-movement system that allows a quadriplegic man to control a computer using only his thoughts is a scientific milestone. It was reached, in large part, through the brain gate system. This system has become a boon to the paralyzed. The Brain Gate System is based on Cyber kinetics platform technology to sense, transmit, analyze and apply the language of neurons. The principle of operation behind the Brain Gate System is that with intact brain function, brain signals are generated even though they are not sent to the arms, hands and legs. The signals are interpreted and translated into cursor movements, offering the user an alternate Brain Gate pathway to control a computer with thought, just as individuals who have the ability to move their hands use a mouse. Matthew Nagle,a 25-year-old Massachusetts man with a severe spinal cord injury, has been paralyzed from the neck down since 2001.After taking part in a clinical trial of this system, he has opened e-mail, switched TV channels, turned on lights. He even moved a robotic hand from his wheelchair.

The concept of visible light communications (VLC), or Li-Fi has received a lot of attention in recent years, mostly due to the growing prevalence of LED lighting. Unlike incandescent and fluorescent bulbs, LEDs are solid-state electronics, meaning they can be controlled in much the same way as any other electronic component, and switched at a high speed. VLC is essentially Wi-Fi but using terahertz radiation (light) instead of microwaves (Wi-Fi). Instead of oscillating a Wi-Fi transmitter, VLC oscillates an LED bulb and of course, on the receiving end there’s a photo detector instead of an antenna. LiFi is a wireless optical networking technology that uses light-emitting diodes (LEDs) for data transmission.

Wireless Electricity transmission is based on strong coupling between electromagnetic resonant objects to transfer energy wirelessly between them. This differs from other methods like simple induction, microwaves, or air ionization. The system consists of transmitters and receivers that contain magnetic loop antennas critically tuned to the same frequency. Due to operating in the electromagnetic near field, the receiving devices must be no more than about a quarter wavelengths from the transmitter .Unlike the far field wireless power transmission systems based on traveling electro -magnetic waves, Wireless Electricity employs near field inductive coupling through magnetic fields similar to those found in transformers except that the primary coil and secondary winding are physically separated, and tuned to resonate to increase their magnetic coupling. These tuned magnetic fields generated by the primary coil can be arranged to interact vigorously with matched secondary windings in distant equipment but far mo re weakly with any surrounding objects or materials such as radio signals or biological issue.

An isolated switched high step up boost DC-DC converter is discussed in this paper. The main objective of this paper is to step up low voltage to very high voltage. This paper mainly initiates at boosting a 30V DC into 240V DC. The discussed converter benefits from the continuous input current. Usually, step-up DC-DC converters are suitable for input whose voltage level is very low. The circuital design comprises of four main stages. Firstly, an impedance network which is used to boost the low input voltage. Secondly a switching network which is used to boost the input voltage then an isolation transformer which is used to provide higher boosting ability and finally a voltage multiplier rectifier which is used to rectify the secondary voltage of the transformer. No switching dead- time is required, which increases the reliability of the converter. Comparing with the existing step-up topologies indicates that this new design is hybrid, portable, higher power density and the size of the whole system is also reduced. The principles as well as operations were analysed and experimentally worked out, which provides a higher efficiency.
