Android Based Message Conveying System Using Bluetooth PDF

This document describes an Android-based message conveying system using Bluetooth. The system uses an AVR microcontroller interfaced with a Bluetooth module to receive messages sent from an Android device via a custom app. The microcontroller processes the messages and displays them on a connected LCD screen. It also triggers a buzzer notification for new messages. The system allows wireless updating of display messages and has applications for conveying notices in colleges and offices instantaneously at low cost without using paper.

Abstract: The main objective of this project is to develop an embedded system, which can be used for spontaneous advertisement
using LCD (liquid crystal display) by using android and Bluetooth module. Now a day, every advertisement is going to be digital.
The big shops and shopping centers are using the digital moving displays now. In railway station and bus stands everything
including ticket information, platform number etc is displaying in digital display. But in order to change the display message, they
can send updated message using android compatible device using Bluetooth as a communicator. This project can be used to
update display message within seconds on any screen connected to Bluetooth.
Keywords: Android, Bluetooth, UART (universal asynchronous receiver transmitter), LCD (liquid crystal display), MCU (Microcontroller
unit), Embedded C, PU (processing unit), hex file.

INTRODUCTION

This project has immense application in colleges and


offices for conveying notices instantly. The proposed
system uses an AVR microcontroller. A Bluetooth device
is interfaced to the microcontroller using UART
communication protocol. An alphanumeric LCD display
is connected to the microcontroller to display the
information entered. Once the user connects Android
application device to this system using Bluetooth,
message can be sent using Android app based GUI and at
receiving end, message from Bluetooth device is
transferred to the microcontroller to display.
The main controlling device of the whole system is MCU,
Bluetooth module (HC05) and Buzzer. The message sent
through predefined application from user android mobile
phone is received by Bluetooth module. Bluetooth module
feds this information to microcontroller which process it
and display on LCD display. Also the microcontroller
horns a buzzer for every new message. To perform this
task, MCU is loaded with an code written in Embedded C
language.

A buzzer or beeper is an audio signaling device. Typical


uses of buzzers and beepers include alarm devices, timers
and confirmation of user input such as a mouse click or
keystroke.
A HC-05 Bluetooth module is an easy to use
Bluetooth SPP (Serial Port Protocol) module, designed for
transparent wireless serial connection setup. It enables any
board with a wireless connection to connect to any other
Bluetooth device with SPP (Serial Port Profile), such as
mobile phones and laptops. Serial port Bluetooth module
is fully qualified Bluetooth V2.0+EDR (Enhanced Data
Rate) 3Mbps Modulation with complete 2.4GHz radio
transceiver and baseband.

III. DESCRIPTION OF SOFTWARE


Embedded C compiler based software is used to create a
hex file from Embedded C code. Then simulation
software is used to test the prepared code. After successful
testing of prepared Embedded C code. Then another
software is used to burn the hex file inside the MCU.
IV. ADVANTAGES

II. DESCRIPTION OF HARDWARE


MCU is a device which integrates a number of the
components of a microprocessor system on to single chip.
It has inbuilt PU, memory and peripherals to make it as a
mini computer. UART of MCU is used to interface
Bluetooth module for serial communication. LCD is
interface to MCU using digital input output pins.
LCD screen is an electronic display module and find a
wide range of applications in instrumentation. A 16x2
LCD display is preferred over seven segments and other
multi segment LEDs. The reasons include LCDs are
economical, easily interfaced and have no limitation of
displaying special & even custom characters (unlike in
seven segments), animations and so on. A 16x2 LCD can
display 16 characters per line and there are 2 such lines.

1. We can send or change the message wirelessly.


2. It can help in Saving Paper.
3. No Cost for Conveying Message.
V. WORKING
A Message is sent through an android phone using an
android app via Bluetooth. Bluetooth module HC-05 on
the embedded board receives the message and transferred
it to the ATmega16 MCU as shown in Fig. 1. Then MCU
reads the message and process it. The processed message
is then sent for display to the LCD. As the message comes
to the board, LED blinks and notify. There is also a
buzzer attached which will beep as an alert and then the
message will be displayed on LCD.

VI. CONCLUSION
Proposed system can transmit or conveys the message
wirelessly. In the industry or colleges, it can be used to
convey urgent messages in less time and there will be
no need of a person to send message to everyone.
Proposed system can help in saving time, money and
paper.
