Door Bell Notification System for Deaf People using Arduino

This present research paper proposes every problem human race has ever faced, technology has given its answer. Technology has now evolved in each and every aspect of human world, from electric cars to smart washing machine and whatnot. Technology has improved life of differently blind people in many ways too. Our motivation for this project is to help deaf people respond non-speech crucial sounds efficiently so that they can live a normal life. In this project a user module is designed which will notify the user whenever the doorbell is pressed. The notification will be send through a wireless module which covers a good amount of range. One module will be hooked at the doorbell while other will be connected to the user module (a wearable device) with some LED/vibrating motor for the indication purpose. The LCD screen will display the text for notification purpose. These modules are controlled by Arduino control Unit.

Automatic Control Unit

Electrical energy usage has been rapidly increased in the building sector due to shifting in population from rural to urban area. In the building, Heating, ventilation, and air conditioning (HVAC) system. Especially air-condition system has taken the most substantial proportion of overall building energy consumption. This result from a large amount of energy must be used in order to provide a comfort zone for occupants in the building. So, this paper aims to proposed design and built prototypes of air-condition control unit that can automatically operate according to schedule. The prototypes using a wireless module to send the control signal to the air-conditioning unit. Specific software has been built to set the desired operating schedule and duration of an operation. The performance of the proposed unit will be evaluated using an experiment on actual field test by installing on actual air-condition in the case study building. The result has shown that the proposed unit can reduce energy usage in air-conditioning significantly compare with little cost for the controller unit.

Accurate Temperature Control

Aiming to solve the problems of inaccuracy in temperature control and the slow reaction in condensing system in the automated distillation analyzer, an approach which combining electrical fan and thermoelectric cooler was put forward, using STM32 as the control unit; accurate temperature control during the distillation process was realized, data collection and processing can be completed by the control unit, and the wireless module can accomplish communication and control the analyzer under the instructions of computer. With this temperature control method, the automation and test accuracy of distillation analyzer can be enhanced, thus ensuring better ratio of performance-to-price and control performance.

In this article an audio based assistive technology for the blind people is proposed and help them navigate in an indoor as well as outdoor environment. A wearable device consisting of an ultrasonic sensor, flame detector, gas sensors and GSM module incorporated in an Arduino is used to alert the blind person of the various situations. A headphone attached to the wearable device will warn about the relevant situation. The wearable device is built using the Arduino-Uno and is tested in different conditions. The test have successfully demonstrated the capability of the device in the indoor as well as outdoor environment. The device has demonstrated better results compared to existing devices in the market.

Waking Up

Sleepwalking is a type of sleep disorder which originates during deep sleep and results in walking state and performing series of complex behaviors or actions while sleeping. In some cases, sleepwalking patients can injure themselves from their actions such as driving a car or climbing out of a window. In addition, to wake up the sleepwalkers can be difficult. The suddenly waking up and can cause them to be confused or even attack the person who wakes them. Therefore, detecting the sleepwalking incident in an early state can help the caretaker or family members to stop the patients before they harm themselves from any strange, inappropriate, or violent behaviors. In this research, we present a prototype system of sleepwalking detection algorithm and notification system using smart device which work coordinating with wearable device. There are two main groups of users; patients and caretakers. User Activity Sensor (UAS) in the wearable device is utilized for detecting User Activity Data (UAD) which is unusual activities of inducing a sleepwalking patient provided by the Remote Sensor SDK. The system returns the patient UAD states consisting of standing, walking, and running. The smart device accepts the UAD states from the wearable device, performs sleepwalking detection algorithms then, alarms caretakers when the sleepwalking state has already invoked. The system is implemented, built, tested and deployed. The threefold experimental measurement of physical user activites have been performed to validate our proposed sleepwalking detection algorithms. The system correctly detects the sleepwalking states and notifies the caretaker.

Late Nineteenth

AbstractAlexander Graham Bell stood at the intersection of two late nineteenth-century American social developments. First, a nascent deaf community, threaded by residential schools and the use of a shared visual language, began to form by the 1850s, drawing deaf people into regular interaction and intermarriage. Second, the American eugenics movement, determined to eliminate perceived social problems through reproductive restrictions, came to prominence as the century neared its end. Bell's role in publicly connecting these two historical threads has earned him the approbation of the American deaf community and historians of disability.This article examines Bell's words and actions closely over thirty years to argue that a combination of Bell's own hubris and historians' tendency to conflate two aspects of his complex attitude toward disability has distorted historical memory. Bell feared that difference alone led to inequality, and he hoped that society could be improved through informed reproductive decisions. Ultimately, Bell found himself entangled in an alarming eugenic environment and sought to thwart eugenicists who would interfere with deaf reproductive rights.

This device uses GPS module to sample the data, and transmits data with the wireless module. The handheld terminals can display information such as longitude, latitude, time independently. The transmitting section collects data which is parsed and processed by the MCU, and displays it on the Liquid Crystal Display (LCD). The receiver receives and analyses wireless data, then displays the data including the current geographic information through the upper machine at the same time. Experiments show that the device could realize the function of positioning and transferring information within 200 meters and we could also use Google Map, the PC software, to get map information. This device, compared with the traditional system, is small in size, light in weight, easy carrying and can accurately position an object. It can be widely used in the sphere of investigation, exploration, navigation and positioning.
