The Allegro ACS712 current sensor is based on the principle of Hall-effect, which was
discovered by Dr. Edwin Hall in 1879. According to this principle, when a current carrying
conductor is placed into a magnetic field, a voltage is generated across its edges
perpendicular to the directions of both the current and the magnetic field. A thin sheet of
semiconductor material (called Hall element) is carrying a current (I) and is placed into a
magnetic field (B) which is perpendicular to the direction of current flow. Due to the
presence of Lorentz force, the distribution of current is no more uniform across the Hall
element and therefore a potential difference is created across its edges perpendicular to the
directions of both the current and the field. This voltage is known Hall voltage and its typical
value is in the order of few microvolts.

BUZZER
The electric buzzer was invented in 1831 by Joseph Henry. They were mainly used
in early doorbells until they were phased out in the early 1930s in favor of musical
chimes, which had a softer tone.
DC Gear Motors
A DC motor is an electric motor that runs on direct current power. In any electric motor,
operation is dependent upon simple electromagnetism. A current carrying conductor
generates a magnetic field, when this is then placed in an external magnetic field, it will
encounter a force proportional to the current in the conductor and to the strength of the
external magnetic field. It is a device which converts electrical energy to mechanical energy.
It works on the fact that a current carrying conductor placed in a magnetic field experiences a
force which causes it to rotate with respect to its original position.
DHT11 digital temperature and humidity sensor is a calibrated digital signal output of the
temperature and humidity combined sensor. It uses a dedicated digital modules capture
technology and the temperature and humidity sensor technology to ensure that products with
high reliability and excellent long-term stability. Sensor includes a resistive element and a
sense of wet NTC temperature measurement devices and with a high-performance 8-bit

The module itself does all of the heavy lifting behind reading and identifying the fingerprints with an
on-board optical sensor and 32-bit CPU. All you need to do is send it simple commands. To get
started, just register each fingerprint that you want to store by sending the corresponding command
and pressing your finger against the reader three times. The fingerprint scanner can store different
fingerprints and the database of prints can even be downloaded from the unit and distributed to
other modules.
FIRE SENSOR
A sensor which is most sensitive to a normal light is known as a flame sensor. That’s why
this sensor module is used in flame alarms. This sensor detects flame otherwise wavelength
within the range of 760 nm – 1100 nm from the light source. This sensor can be easily
damaged to high temperature. So this sensor can be placed at a certain distance from the
flame. The flame detection can be done from a 100cm distance and the detection angle will
be 600. The output of this sensor is an analog signal or digital signal. These sensors are used
in fire fighting robots like as a flame alarm.

could be used to detect Methane and other combustible steam, it is low cost and suitable for
different application. Sensor is sensitive to flammable gas and smoke. Smoke sensor is given
5 volt to power it. Smoke sensor indicates smoke by the voltage that it outputs .More smoke
more output. A potentiometer is provided to adjust the sensitivity. Sn02 is the sensor used
which is of low conductivity when the air is clean.
GSM MODULE
GSM is a mobile communication modem; it is stands for global system for mobile communication
(GSM). The idea of GSM was developed at Bell Laboratories in 1970. It is widely used mobile
communication system in the world. GSM is an open and digital cellular technology used for
transmitting mobile voice and data services operates at the 850MHz, 900MHz, 1800MHz and
1900MHz frequency bands.
A 16x2 LCD means it can display 16 characters per line and there are 2 such lines. In this
LCD each character is displayed in 5x7 pixel matrix. This LCD has two registers, namely,
Command and Data. The command register stores the command instructions given to the
LCD. A command is an instruction given to LCD to do a predefined task like initializing it,
clearing its screen, setting the cursor position, controlling display etc. The data register stores
the data to be displayed on the LCD. The data is the ASCII value of the character to be
displayed on the LCD
INVERTER CIRCUIT
Inverter plays an essential role like a brain. The main function of this is to alter DC power to
AC power which is generated from the solar array. It allows for monitoring the system so this
system operators can observe how this system is working. If you are considering a solar panel
system for your home, one of the key decisions you make is the type of inverter to install.
Inverters convert direct current (DC) energy which is generated from the solar panels into
usable alternating current (AC) energy.
IR Sensor
The IR Sensor-Single is a general purpose proximity sensor. Here we use it for collision
detection. The module consists of an IR emitter and IR receiver pair. The high precision IR
receiver always detects an IR signal. The module consists of 358 comparator IC. The output
of sensor is high whenever it IR frequency and low otherwise. The on-board LED indicator
helps user to check status of the sensor without using any additional hardware. The power
Metal Detector
A metal detector is an electronic instrument which detects the presence of metal nearby.
Metal detectors are useful for finding metal inclusions hidden within objects, or metal objects
buried underground. They often consist of a handheld unit with a sensor probe which can be
swept over the ground or other objects. If the sensor comes near a piece of metal this is
indicated by a changing tone in earphones, or a needle moving on an indicator. Usually the
device gives some indication of distance; the closer the metal is, the higher the tone in the
earphone or the higher the needle goes. Another common type are stationary "walk through"
metal detectors used for security screening at access points in prisons, courthouses,
and airports to detect concealed metal weapons on a person's body.
Power Supply
RELAY
A relay is an electrically operated switch. Many relays use an electromagnet to mechanically operate a
switch, but other operating principles are also used, such as solid-state relays. Relays are used where it
is necessary to control a circuit by a separate low-power signal, or where several circuits must be
controlled by one signal. The first relays were used in long distance telegraph circuits as amplifiers:
they repeated the signal coming in from one circuit and re-transmitted it on another circuit. Relays
were used extensively in telephone exchanges and early computers to perform logical operations.
RF Transceivers (433-MHz)
RF module is a small size electronic device that is used to transmit or receive radio signals
between two devices. The main application of RF module is an embedded system to
communicate with another device wirelessly. This communication may be accomplished
through radio frequency communication. For various applications the medium of choice is
radio frequency since it does not need line of sight. The applications of RF modules mainly
involve in low volume and medium volume products for consumer applications like wireless
alarm systems, garage door openers, smart sensor applications, wireless home automation
systems and industrial remote controls. This article discusses about block diagram of RF
transceiver module and its applications.

If you want to rotate and object at some specific angles or distance, then you use servo motor.
It is just made up of simple motor which run through servo mechanism. If motor is used is
DC powered then it is called DC servo motor, and if it is AC powered motor then it is called
AC servo motor. We can get a very high torque servo motor in a small and light weight
packages. Doe to these features they are being used in many applications like toy car, RC
helicopters and planes, Robotics, Machine etc.
