Project overview • Project-specific success criteria • Block diagram • Component selection rationale • Packaging design • Schematic and theory of operation • PCB layout • Software design/development status • Project completion timeline • Questions / discussion Outline
Graphical Audio Visualizer to enhance environment at entertainment venue. • Wireless pillars about 3 ft. tall and 3 in. wide tubes. • Each pillar has custom frequencies set by user on mobile device. • LEDs in each pillar will light up according to amplitude of set frequency in song. • Mobile device will also control settings in base station. • Base station and towers will communicate wirelessly. Project Overview
An ability to successfully add or remove towers as needed • An ability to wirelessly transmit LED control data from the base station to remote towers • An ability to control device settings using a mobile device over wireless interface • An ability to display network status on each tower • An ability to process audio input to identify frequency amplitude Project-Specific Success Criteria
Base station – • 2 UART channels – Bluetooth and Xbee • DSP library • Tower – • 1 UART Channel - Xbee • 1 SPI Channel – LED Strip Microcontroller Peripherals Required
Xbee S2 module – • Star network • Ease of implementing and adding devices • Bluetooth BC127 module – • Bluetooth 4.0 LE • Compatible with iOS and Android devices • LED Strip – • Each LED individually addressable • Requires only 1 data pin to control all LEDs Other Components
Packaging Design • Base Station • LCD screen for debugging • Pushbuttons for manual settings without mobile device • LEDs for status indicators for transmitting data. • Tower • Frosted acrylictube with LED strip suspended in the middle. • LEDs for status indicators for transmitting data.
General • Two PCBs • 10 mil trace minimum • Wires cross perpendicularly • Avoid acute angles • SparkFun DRC LEDs PCB Layout – Tower MICRO POWER POWER XBee
Ground Plane • 10 mil Isolate • Reduces system impedance PCB Layout – Tower
