  1. Team Welcome to WoopWoop ProjectWiFi Clock

  2. Introduction Team Members • Rosemary Peters • Kirby Wigton • Nate Perkins • Joe Haggberg • Advisor • Dr. Aziz Inan • Customer • Dr. Joseph Hoffbeck

  3. Agenda • Project Description • Device Components • Background • Methods • Results • Conclusions • Demonstration

  4. Project Description • Problem: Clocks aren’t always accurate: Schools, Hospitals, etc. • Our Project: Design a WiFi Clock that updates daily using NTP (network time protocol) servers. • Our Goal: The clock will always be on time and automatically update.

  5. Device Components • PIC 32 Microcontroller • I/O (input/output) Expansion Board • LCD Display • Wireless Module LCD Display WiFi Module PIC 32 Expansion Board

  6. Background • Project Proposal • A WiFi module obtains a time stamp from an NTP server and passes it along to an LCD using a microcontroller. • Display the time and update it using the oscillator of the microcontroller every minute. • Functional Specs • Hardware – Digital LCD 12hr, Battery Power Supply. • Software – MPLAB, C coding, internet protocol.

  7. Methods • Wire our hardware. • Use C coding and MPLAB to have the LCD print a simple display. • Enable the Wireless module to connect to UP wireless. • Retrieve the time. • Display the time.

  8. Results • Hardware is configured properly. • Microcontroller can communicate with the LCD and the wireless module. • Using MPLAB we can code the LCD to display desired characters.

  10. Project Evolution

  11. Conclusions • Did not get the WiFi module working. • Nearly 400 total hours logged. • Learned new skills we previously had minimal to no experience in. • Had more software components than we anticipated. • Obtained new knowledge of C coding and internet protocol applications. • Acquired real-world experience (i.e. using data sheets, communicating to different departments within a company, making components from different suppliers operate together).
