Automation of Cars

The technical brilliance and developments in different fields has led to a drastic change especially in
the communication field. Devices with intelligence, rule the world. Imbibing intelligence to these
devices is through a system called “Embedded Systems”. It is the evolution or further development of
the computing system. Its applications provide marvelous opportunities for ingenious use of computer
technology. Almost every new system introduced is an example of Embedded System. Recent
development of this technology is Automation of Cars. There are many paradigm shifts taking place
due to information explosion and the concept of autonomous vehicle is one shift. The car, which is
embedded, can simulate the human driver completely and direct the vehicle on the road. Autonomous
vehicle is the drastic change in technical brilliance and developments in different fields with Embedded
System as pioneer. The vehicle is required to blend its environmental perception capabilities with its
intelligent controls in order to affect optimal path-planning strategies that not only avoid obstacles but
also minimize criteria such as time of travel, fuel consumption, exposure to pollution/danger, etc.
however basic driving functions consists of lane-keeping, safe distance maintenance, timely lane
changing and overtaking. The key to all these driving tasks is collision avoidance. For designing of
autonomous car the positioning information is required, for this we use Global Positioning System and
various techniques like pulse code modulation technique and learning adaptive system etc.
Embedded System in a Shadow Activated Robot

The term embedded means „built in‟, while the term „system‟ refers to the combination of hardware
and software, which are necessary to run a unit and are available within the unit itself. In general a
robot must be able to move, it must be able to sense, and it should be intelligent enough to take
decisions by it. To enable the robots to perform all these operations, that are control, sensing, and
decision making, generally some embedded systems are used in them. The project introduces the
simplest possible real time robot with a single sensor, a light dependent resistor (LDR) and one
actuator, a DC motor. The robot is a simple toy car with four wheels, powered by a DC motor. We will
use a sensor, embedded controller so that our robot will move and artificial intelligence (AI) can be
included in it. The robot‟s sensor LDR which is sensible to light is exposed to light. If we block this
light say by our palm, and then the robot immediately senses it and moves back and then comes
forward to the same place. If the palm is still there to block the sensor again against light, the process is
repeated. Otherwise, the robot stands still at the same position.
Nano on CMOS

The challenge of extending Moore‟s Law past the physical and economic barriers of present
semiconductor technologies calls for novel nano electronic solutions. Circuits composed of mixed
silicon semiconductors and nano electronics can provide a means for gradually switching technology
paradigms. We suggest a design methodology to accompany this concept. Furthermore, we explore
Design tradeoffs for a nano-scale crossbar technology that supports CMOS/nano Co-design. For
brevity, in this paper we refer to conventional silicon electronics, as “CMOS”. Likewise, we use the
term “nano” to refer to novel nano-scale electronics. While much of the analysis in this paper is
applicable to several nano technology approaches based on regularly structured circuits; in this paper
we have presented a methodology for CMOS/nano co-design. In addition, we have also considered the
logical and physical aspects of a nano crossbar technology.
Transient Charge Feed forward Driver for Active -Matrix OLED Displays
Raghunandan. G. H
Department of Telecommunication Engg, AMC Engineering College, Bangalore
A transient charge feed forward driver (TCFD) is introduced here for high-speed data driving in
AMOLED displays. In this paper, a transient charge feed forward driver (TCFD) that remarkably
reduces the data driving time by feeding forward the transient charging current generated from an
adjacent column line is presented. In order to provide charging current for the parasitic capacitance of a
column line, TCFD generates the required charging current by taking advantage of the parasitic
capacitance of another adjacent Column line. The generation of the required charging current and the
summing operation are realized by the simultaneous operation of negative and positive feedback loops
in the circuit. By applying the TCFD, a 7 μs driving speed is achieved for 20 nA of data current. The
driving speeds are almost constant for column line conditions up to 6 kΩ and 40 pF. The TCFD is
fabricated in a standard 0.35 μm using CMOS process and finally the performance of the TCFD is
evaluated.
