This project aims to offer advancing technologies for overall development of the railway station. Allotment of platform to number of trains in less time interval is quite difficult with the token system because this is done just on guess which is not that much efficient and moreover, a minor mistake in estimation may lead to an accident which may bring a lot of lives into danger. So there is a great need of change in this technology. In this project we sorted out this problem and got a very efficient solution. We used RFID tag and ZIGBEE interfaced with MSP430 to send train's unique id to server room and server room will allot the platform which can be finally displayed on LCD screen and some other essential information which is placed in front of train driver and there is no chance of mistake in estimating the arrival time of train. It is a prototype system which resolves the issue of allotment of platform to the trains arriving to a particular station. By implementing this system into the present system of railways the risk of accidents could be minimized. Our project is in fact derived from the problem that our Indian Railway system is actually facing. In past, we had seen many brain numbing accidents that had cost us many precious lives. These accidents contribute to a great loss of innocent lives and put a sad impact on our mind. Our project is a little attempt, a small step put forward to ensure the safety of passengers travelling in trains. Moreover, the implementation of our design also features to prevent the chances of stampede that are often caused on railway stations because of wrong information provided to the passengers. In this prototype system we had used MSP430 launchpad, MSP EXP430F5438, ZIGBEE, LCD, RFID reader, RFID tags, IR led, transistors.

Pulsoximeter is a medical instrument for monitoring the blood oxygenation of a patient. This type of monitoring is especially useful for new born infants, during surgery and in determining Hypoxia. Blood oxygen content is an important indicator of human patient health and during anaesthesia. This aspect can be monitored by measuring the oxygen percentage in the blood timely and accurately with the help of our device. As our device is non invasive it proves out to be comfortable for the new born. Our slight modification to the standard approach that utilises pulse oximeter or Photoplethysmograph for this purpose, assures considerable decrease in current consumption thereby reducing overall power consumption which makes our device a low power device that can be used with much ease at places where power consumption is an issue. Patient's health parameters can be continuously monitored over a low power wireless network which aids in mobile monitoring.

The project relates to a health monitoring system comprising of a medical diagnosis done by a medically-qualified person in relation to a patient who is being monitored remotely via a communication system. The project is characterized in such a way that the medically-qualified person links medical data to health actions in a server using surveillance rules. The project is further characterized in which the server programs a remote terminal which is located close to the patient, such that the remote terminal uses an automatism which applies the surveillance rules to the medical data supplied to the terminal by at least one sensor which is associated with the patient by a machine interface. Thus the monitoring system proposed in the paper suffices the health concerns and adds more flexibility, ease of access and also adds the afford ability as well as feasibility of the solution proposed due to its cheap and robust design. Hence the system is quite apt for the implementation in the village areas where especially the health problems are more prominent and so they need to be given special attention.

Emotion recognition through physiological recording is an emerging field of research with many promising results. This work is involved in the construction of a device used to identify basic human emotions indexed by Electro Dermal Activity (EDA) in real time, using a non-invasive sensor attached to a wrist band. We refer to the system as "E Lock-Holmes". The device measures changes in Skin Conductance Level (SCL) caused due to stimulating signals from brain which results from sympathetic neural activity using Ag/AgCl electrodes placed on the ventral side of the distal forearm to evaluate the emotions of the user outside the constrained laboratory environment without interrupting the normal daily routine. The device consists of an embedded system for EDA signal acquisition and a wireless communication module to send processed EDA signals to a remote system. A vibrator attached to the device is used to provide user feedback.

Energy efficiency is of prime focus in the design and development of any power conversion system. The value of power factor at the input, affects the efficiency. It is a known fact that most common non-linear loads (such as a rectifier) result in low power factor operation at the ac (alternating current) input due to the presence of harmonics. Low power factor causes power losses, equipment failure, and higher operating costs. This paper presents a conceptual design for improving the power factor by active filtering using a boost converter connected between the rectifier and the load. Digital current mode control of operation of the boost converter is designed implemented and experimentally tested using a hardware set-up with Piccolo F28027 micro controller Simulations are carried out in MATLAB/Simulink. The control strategy is implemented on the Micro controller through the MATLAB IDE environment for code generation. The simulation results are verified with that obtained experimentally.

Road accidents claim a staggeringly high number of lives every year. From drunk driving, rash driving and driver distraction to visual impairment, over speeding and over-crowding of vehicles, the majority of road accidents occur because of some fault or the other of the driver/occupants of the vehicle. According to the report on “Road Accidents in India, 2011” by the Ministry of Transport and Highways, Government of India, approximately every 11th person out of 100,000 died in a road accident and further, every 37th person was injured in one, making it an alarming situation for a completely unnecessary cause of death. The above survey also concluded that in 77.5 percent of the cases, the driver of the vehicle was at fault. The situation makes it a necessity to target the root cause of road accidents in order to avoid them. While car manufacturers include a system for avoiding damages to the driver and the vehicle, no real steps have been taken to actually avoid accidents. “Road Accident Prevention Unit” is a step forward in this stead. This design monitors the driver's state using multiple sensors and looks for triggers that can cause accidents, such as alcohol in the driver's breath and driver fatigue or distraction. When an alert situation is detected, the system informs the driver and tries to alert him. If the driver does not respond within a stipulated time, the system turns on a distress signal outside the vehicle to inform nearby drivers and sends a text message to the driver's next of kin about the situation. A marketable design would also shut down power to the vehicle, thus providing maximum probability for avoiding road accidents and extending a crucial window for preventive and mitigation measures to be taken.

In this report, we present a systematic design and implementation of the Smart Console for vehicles which makes use of fingerprint for the purpose of vehicle ignition. The system includes on board hardware construction through digital display with a speedometer (Speed indicated in kmph), odometer (Distance covered in km). It also includes light intensity control for headlight using LDR and timer circuits. To realize the fingerprint ignition system, MSP430 is used to interface with the module. The fingerprint recognition system enables fingerprints of valid users of the vehicle to be enrolled in a database and the engine gets ignited only if the prints match.
