The Wisdom Stone Small sensors, with very low power consumption Planted under roads Monitoring road status
Project goals Calculating vehicle speed Identifying the vehicle Mining traffic data
Advantages Cheaper Works in all conditions Underground Independent Supplying traffic data
Challenges • Power supply • Solar Panel: SW • Synchronization • RFID: SW & HW
Master SW Routine • Idle • Waking the slave for synchronization • Synchronization → Idle • Sensing that vehicle is approaching • Waking the slave for sampling • Sampling • Sending the samples to the slave → Idle
Slave SW Routine • Sleep • Wake • Synchronization → Sleep • Sampling • Storing • Getting the master’s samples • Calculating the vehicle speed→ Sleep
3 m Solution for speed detection V a
Challenges following the calculation Non-identical samplers. Different frequencies.
Identifying the vehicle TI 13.56 MHz RFID
Challenges following TI RFID Choosing the suitable component. Matching the component to Michrochip technology. Identifying the vehicle within mili-seconds.
Power supply Existing power sources: • Rechargeable battery – 3.7 Volt • Non-rechargeable battery – 3.6 Volt • USB cable – 5 Volt Solar panel – need to be added as part of the project.
Synchronization Master Slave Two stones – one is master and the other is slave. Using the RTC, we can manage the synchronization.
Challenges following synchronization • RTC resolution is only 1 second. • Choosing the period of time to synchronize. • Setting the synchronization interrupt as top priority. • Protocols – two options: • Sending the time. • Setting up the two RTCs simultaneously.
