Performed by Lior David andAlon Perlis Supervised by Boaz Mizrachi Smart Road SensorPDR presentation Summer 2011
Agenda • Problem definition • Project objectives • Input specifications • Hardware overview • Data flow • Software design • Timeline
Problem Definition • The client would like to measure and analyze the effect of vehicles on road surfaces and layers • Over long periods of time • In various placements • Automatic and manual triggering • Easy data retrieval
Project Objectives • Design and implementation of (almost) complete system for seismic measurements • Selection of suitable components • Sensors integration • Software framework in the form of RTOS • Digital signal processing • Power management • (Communication)
Input Requirements • 3 axis acceleration • micro-g resolution • Temperature measurement • Communication
Hardware Overview KB12VD Piezoelectric Accelerometer ADXL312 Analog Devices digital 3-axis digital accelerometer I2C ADC AD7682 PIC24FJ256GB110 Microchip microcontroller Communication In-house driver for KB12VD SPI SPI SPI EEPROM Batteries Key pad LCD SD card
Software Design • Real time, preemptive operating system for the PIC microcontroller • Modular design • Robust hardware drivers for later development • Basic signal processing
Team’s commitment • 20 weekly man-hours • Lior - Sunday morning and Monday 12:00-18:00 • Alon - Monday as free day and Friday as needed • Weekly meeting with the supervisor
Thank you! Questions?
Piezoelectric sensor Cx = dxyFyb / a Cxis the amount of charge Fxis the applied Force in x direction where a is the dimension in line with the neutral axis, b is in line with the charge generating axis and d is the corresponding piezoelectric coefficient.
