 INTRODUCTION
• Aim of the project is to use a mobile phone to
control a robotic arm mounted on a land rover
• Provides robust control, large working range and
16 controls.
• Control of robot involves 4 different phases:
a) Perception
b) Processing
c) Action
d) Detection
BASIC BLOCK DIAGRAM OF
PROJECT

MT
 1.PERCEPTION
• First part is to make a call to the mobile phone
which is attached to the robot.
• Next part is the decoding of DTMF tone generated
by pressing a key in calling phone.
• Audio signal output from receiving phone is fed to
DTMF decoder chip.
• Decoder chip converts DTMF tone into binary
codes to be fed to microcontroller.
• MT8870 IC used as DTMF decoder in our project.
 2. PROCESSING
• After perception stage, microcontroller
processes the binary codes it receives.

• Microcontroller is pre-programmed in “C” to

perform specific task according to input bits.

• Atmel’s ATmega16 is used for processing.

 3. ACTION
• Final stage is rotation of motors based on input
given by the microcontroller.

• Two DC motors of 30 rpm are used for the

land rover and driven by motor driver IC
L293D.
 4. DETECTION
• For obstacle detection, a pair of IR transmitter
and receiver is used along with buzzer.
• When the obstacle come near the robot, the IR
transmitter will transmit the IR rays on the
object and the object will reflect the IR rays to
the IR receiver.
• The IR receiver will receive the IR rays and it
will activate the buzzer.

 DTMF SIGNALS AND DTMF
DECODING CIRCUIT
• DTMF “Dual Tone Multiple-Frequency”.
• Used in a telecommuncating signaling
• The 16-keys touch tone pad.
• DTMF assigns a unique ‘sound’ to each key.
• Keys are arranged in a matrix of 4 columns
and 4 rows.
 GROUPING OF FREQUENCY

• Signals generated by the superposition of two pure

sinusoidal tones.
•The DTMF signal generated is the sum of two
sinusoidal tones.

 ATMEGA16 MICROCONTROLLER

• Advanced-RISC architecture.
• 16K bytes of In-System Programmable Flash
Program memory.
• Internal and external interrupts.
• 32 general-purpose registers.
• High-performance, Low-power AVR 8-bit
Microcontroller.
 FEATURES OF ATMEGA16
• Widely used.
• Easily available.
• Cost effective.
• Speed of execution of instructions.
• Flexible instruction set.
• Vast documentation.
• Easily available support and development
tools.
DIAGRAM OF ATMEGA16
DC MOTOR CONTROLLER L293D
• Microcontroller output is not sufficient to drive
DC motors, so L293D is used.
• L293D comes in 16-pin DIP. It can provide
current upto 600mA at voltages from 4.5V to
36V.
• It can be used to drive inductive loads such as
relays, solenoids etc
• In the project it is used for simultaneous bi-
directional control of two DC motors.

 SOFTWARE USED
• The software is written in ‘C’ language

• Hex code for Atmega 16 is generated by using

Code Vision AVR ‘C’ compiler.

• The next software we used is ‘EAGLE’ for

circuit schematic design and layout design.
 ALGORITHM
• STEP 1: START
• STEP 2: DECLARE VARIABLES
• STEP 3: SET PORT A AS I/P PORT
• STEP 4: SET PORT D AS O/P PORT
• STEP 5: ACCEPT INPUT
• IF I/P IS 0X02 THEN MOVE MOTOR IN FORWARD DIRECTION
• IF I/P IS 0X08 THEN MOVE MOTOR IN BACKWARD DIRECTION
• IF I/P IS 0X04 THEN MOVE MOTOR TO LEFT
• IF I/P IS 0X06 THEN MOVE MOTOR TO RIGHT
• IF I/P IS 0X05 THEN STOP MOVING MOTOR
• STEP 6: STOP
 ADVANTAGES
• Wireless control
• Surveillance System.
• Takes in use of the mobile technology which is
almost available everywhere.
• This wireless device has no boundation of
range and can be controlled as far as network
of cell phone
 DISADVANTAGES
• Cell phone bill.

• Mobile batteries drain out early so charging

problem.

• Not flexible with all cell phones as only a

particular cell phone whose earpiece is
attached can only be used.
 APPLICATIONS
• Scientific

• Military and Law Enforcement

• Search and Rescue

• Recreation and Hobby

 FUTURE SCOPE
• Password Protection

• Alarm-Phone Dialer

• Adding a Camera
 CONCLUSION
• We have successfully implemented the entire
circuit on the PCB with obstacle detection feature.
• Since all we need is a mobile call establishment to
instruct the robot due to the cell phone’s unending
and cheap availability, this is highly feasible.
• The level of sophistication is quite low and hence
its working is user friendly.
• Project can also be subjected to standardization
and hence has a good future scope.
