Industrial workplace health and safety are essential for avoiding work-related accidents, injuries, and fatalities. In fact, as many as 13,455,000 workers across manufacturing industries in the US are at risk for fatal and nonfatal injuries, the CDC reveals. Not only does improving workplace health and safety protect workers, but it also prevents lost work days and lost revenue. The National Safety Council found work injuries cost businesses a total of $161.5 billion annually, equating to $1,100 per worker.
Improve employee training
New workers are three times more likely to sustain an injury in their first month than workers with a year's experience on the job. By improving employee training and tailoring programs to the demands of each individu ...
Hello friends, in today's post I am gonna show how to send SMS with PIC Microcontroller and SIM900. In my previous posts, we have seen how to Send SMS with Arduino and SIM900D and have also seen how to Receive SMS with Arduino and sim900D, both of them were using Arduino board. So, today I thought to post same project using PIC Microcontroller. The logics I am gonna use are exactly the sameas I did for Arduino but the only thing gonna change is the programming syntax. I am using MikroC Pro for PIC compiler for PIC Microcontroller and PIC18F452 is gonna use here. I have also posted on How to Receive SMS with AT Commands using SIM900 & PIC Microcontroller, so check it out as well if you are planning to work on PIC Microcontroller and SIM900.

In the last tutorial, we discussed Getting Started with Microcontrollers and how they work and now we are gonna have a look at Getting Started with PIC Microcontrollers. PIC microcontrollers, as I mentioned before, are manufactured by Microchip. There are many types of microcontrollers but here I am concerned with PIC18F452.So let's have a small review of PIC18F452 PIC microcontrollers.
PIC18F452 is a 40-pin microcontroller each pin has its functionality, which we will see in our next classes one by one. suppose I want to create a project on LED blinking, a simple project on PIC so what do I have to do? First of all, I need the following things so that I may use them to work with PIC. I have discussed the Functions available in the PIC18F452 Microcontroller in the next post.

Hey Guys! Hope you are doing great. Today, I am going to discuss the details on the Introduction to BJT (Bipolar Junction Transistor). It is an electronic component mainly used for amplification and switching purpose. As the name suggests, it is composed of two junctions called emitter-base junction and collector-base junction.
Don't confuse BJT with regular transistors. A transistor is a semiconductor device, comes with three terminals that are used for external connection with electronic circuits. A transistor is termed as a trans resistor which is used as switch or gate for electronic signals. Small signals applied between one pair of its terminals are used to control much larger signals at the other pair of terminals.
Actually, transistors are divided into two categories called u ...
You can use a multimeter to figure out what's wrong with the electrical system in your car. Most of the time, if you check for voltage and continuity, you can figure out where the problem is coming from. This article will show you how to use a multimeter on a car.
First, make sure the multimeter isn't on. Then connect the positive lead to the positive terminal on the battery. Connect the negative lead to a metal piece on the frame of the car. The last step is to turn on the multimeter and read the results. If it says 0 volts, it means that no electricity is moving through the circuit. If the voltage is 12 volts or more, then there is a current in the circuit.
A multimeter can be helpful if you can't figure out what's wrong with your car's electrics. You should be able to fix many c ...
Hello friends, I hope you all are doing great. In today’s tutorial, we will have a look at What are Position Sensors and their practical implementation. Position sensors are such instruments used to detect the variation in the position of different components, or human beings. All movement controls networks comprise of such components that send information about the component or devices location connected with the network. These movement detectors are normally used in industries to control the operation of different machines.
Theses devices measure the complete variation in the position of the different tools or after some intervals of the time. These modules also have the ability to retains the data about the movements of a different tool, or mac ...
Hi friends, hoping everyone is fine and enjoying their lives. I am here today with an article on Introduction to Synchronous Motor. You all already know that motor is a mean of converting electrical energy into mechanical energy. Synchronous motor is the type of motor in which the rotating speed of rotor is same as the rotating speed of magnetic field. In other words, rotor rotates at the synchronous speed unlike Induction Motor, which we have discussed in Introduction to Induction Motor.
In this article, I will share the Introduction to synchronous motor with you guys. First things first, I am telling you about its construction and working in first two segments of my article. While later I would be throwing some light on its key features followed ...
Outsourcing is a relatively new form of organizing work. Yet, nowadays it’s probably the most effective and profitable way to have your project done. No wonder businesses all over the world prefer it over the traditional methods. But what is outsourcing and how it works? What are the advantages? What trends does this sphere have today?
Outsourcing Basics
Outsourcing works in a really simple way. A company needs a part of the project done, but they don’t have enough employees to finish it in time. So, they hire specialized outsourcing teams that provide professional assistance in all the needed aspects.
That doesn’t mean it’s limited to being some kind of assistance service, though. Remote dedicated teams can work on a separate part of an already existing project, or even develop a produc ...
Hello friends, hope you all are fine and having fun with your lives. Today I am gonna post 555 Timer projects list which are already posted on our blog. Actually, I have posted many 555 Timer Projects on my blog but we don't have a list of these tutorials and they are quite scattered. So, today I thought to arrange them in a proper list so that you can find all of them in one place. All these 555 timer projects are simulated in my favorite simulating software Proteus. I have also given their simulations for download in almost all tutorials. If you feel problem in any of them then ask in comments and I will resolve them.
All these 555 Timer Projects and tutorials are written and designed completely by our team so we hold the complete ownership for ...
Hi Friends! I am back to help you with a daily dose of useful information so you can excel and grow in your field. Today, I am going to discuss the details on the Introduction to Web 2.0.
