Automation and Robotics

An Automation System uses technology to perform tasks with minimal human intervention. It combines mechanical, electrical, and software systems to streamline operations, increase efficiency, and reduce errors. Automation systems are widely used in industries, homes, and service sectors.

Automated processes are controlled by pre-programmed instructions. Sensors collect data, and actuators execute actions based on system logic. Tasks can be customized for specific applications. Automation systems often work with IoT and AI for advanced capabilities.

Completed Projects
1. University Online Registration System

The process of semester registration at universities is often time-consuming and prone to errors due to its reliance on manual procedures. This thesis explores the development and implementation of an automated online semester registration system aimed at streamlining the process for both students and administrative staff. The current system, which involves multiple steps including manual form collection, departmental approvals, hall approvals, exam controller approval, fee payments at banks, and document submissions, collecting admit cards, leads to inefficiencies, long queues, and a lack of real-time data tracking. The proposed online system replaces these manual tasks with a web-based platform, enabling students to complete registration, make payments, and obtain approvals electronically.

2. Smart Door Lock Using RFID with Automatic Door Open and Close

A Smart Door Lock Using RFID with Automatic Door Open and Close is an advanced security system designed to enhance the safety and convenience of home or office entrances. This system utilizes RFID (Radio Frequency Identification) technology, where an RFID tag or card is used to unlock the door. The RFID reader scans the tag, verifies the unique ID, and grants access if it matches the stored data. The system is automated to open the door once access is granted and close it after a set period or when the person has passed through. Additional features often include a motorized lock mechanism, real-time monitoring, and security alerts for unauthorized access attempts. It is a touchless, convenient, and secure way to manage access control. Author – Md Ariful Hoque, Shibber Ahmmed Munna

5. Advanced Dual-Axis Solar Tracking System with IoT-Driven Real-Time Monitoring for Optimized Efficiency

Photovoltaic (PV) cells can transform solar energy into electrical energy. However, variations in light intensity and the changing position of the sun typically compromise their efficiency. Fixed solar panels experience reduced efficiency when not correctly oriented with the sun, resulting in decreased power generation. In order to optimize efficiency, it is necessary to implement a tracking system that ensures the panels remain aligned toward the sun. In order to achieve this objective, a prototype dual-axis solar tracking system was developed. This system utilizes Light Dependent Resistor (LDR) sensors and is controlled by an Arduino UNO microcontroller. It enables movement in both vertical and horizontal directions. Four Light Dependent Resistors (LDRs) and two servo motors enable the panels to track sunlight, achieving ideal orientation. Performance monitoring is achieved by integrating the system with the ThingSpeak IoT platform using the Node MCU ESP8266. This integration allows for the tracking of energy data obtained from the sensors. Compared to a fixed-axis device, the dual-axis tracker demonstrated a 21.83% increase in efficiency. A real-time monitoring system offers a practical means to assess the operation of the solar tracker. Author – Asadul Shimul
