PLC-based control systems have transformed the way industrial cranes operate on the factory floor. If you've worked with ladder logic or automation projects before, integrating a PLC with a single girder overhead crane is a natural next step — one that brings precise motion control, safety interlock logic, and IoT-ready data logging to one of the most common pieces of industrial lifting equipment. In this guide, we'll walk through the full picture: from the mechanical fundamentals of single girder overhead cranes, to PLC I/O wiring, ladder logic programming, VFD integration, and real-world automation patterns used in manufacturing environments. What Is a Single Girder Overhead Crane? A single girder overhead crane (also called a single beam crane) consists of one main horizontal beam — the ...
Hi readers! Hopefully, you are well and exploring technology daily. Today, the topic of our discourse is the FMCW Radar Sensor Optimized for IoT Applications and Health Care Devices. You might already know about it or something new and different. FMCW radar sensors are becoming one of the leading technologies in non-contact sensing and are very widely used nowadays in IoT and healthcare devices. In general, they have more accuracy, lower power consumption, and good performance on different surfaces. Hence, they can be highly versatile by emitting a continuous wave signal with frequency modulation, capable of detecting motions, measuring distance, and monitoring the presence of people with exceptional accuracy. This non-contact capability is an important feature for applications where hygie ...
Hi readers! Hopefully, you are having a great day and want to know more about technology. Enter a world where robots think, walk, and even learn. Welcome to the magical world of robotics. Our topic for today is robotics. Robotics involves creating, assembling, and controlling machines that carry out tasks either fully or partly without help from humans. It includes ideas from mechanics, electronics, computers, and artificial intelligence. Although the concept of robots has existed for centuries, actual development began in the 20th century with robots in factories, particularly automotive manufacturing. This is where the foundation of robotics started. Generally, a robot includes parts that move, detect its surroundings, decide how to act and has fuel for operation. There are robots that s ...

Updates Proteus Libraries for Engineering Students Latest list: 30 New Proteus Libraries for Engineering Students (October 2026): GSM, GPS, Wi-Fi, Bluetooth, RF, LoRa, RFID and I2C sensor libraries with Arduino examples Earlier lists: T ...
Hello friends, I hope you all are doing well. Today, I am going to share the 4th chapter of Section-III in our Raspberry Pi programming course. In the previous lecture, we studied the Interfacing of IR sensor with Raspberry Pi 4 . In this guide, you'll learn how to interface a PIR sensor with Raspberry Pi to create a motion detector. A passive infrared (PIR) sensor is a straightforward yet effective tool for motion detection. As a bonus, a piezo speaker will play an audio clip whenever motion is detected. GPIO pins are required for both of these accessories. This tutorial is a great starting point for those who have never worked with electronic components and circuits. These sensors are used in traditional, old-generation security systems. In contrast, video is used in most of today's moni ...
Hi Friends! Hope you’re well today. I’ll welcome you on board. In this post, I’ll walk you through How a Hobbyist Can Work on Electronic Projects in America. From smartphones to security systems and appliances to advanced automation equipment, electronics seem to engulf every aspect of life. And with the recent advancement in technology, this trend will continue to make our lives easy and better for years on end. BUT… before you can take part in the development of innovative and advanced electronic machinery, you need to get your hands dirty with DIY electronic projects. These small and easy-to-handle projects give you confidence that you can do better and put your deliberate effort to delight the lives of people with your intellect. If you’re just starting, we suggest you visit North Amer ...
Hello friends, I hope you all are doing great. Today, I am going to share the 6th tutorial of Section-III in the Raspberry Pi Programming Course. In our previous tutorial, we have seen how to interface an Ultrasonic Sensor with Raspberry Pi 4 and used Python to perform its calculations. In today's tutorial, we'll discuss how to interface a DHT11 temperature and humidity sensor to a Raspberry Pi. So, let's get started: Components Here's the list of components, we are going to use in today's circuit: LCD display DHT11 sensor Raspberry pi Breadboard Male-to-female jumper wires What is a DHT11 sensor? DHT11 is a low-cost digital sensor, used to measure temperature and humidity in the surroundings. DHT sensor has three main components i.e. A resistive-type sensor(used to measure humidity) NTC T ...
Hello friends, I hope you all are doing well. Today, I am going to share the 5th tutorial of Section-III in our Raspberry Pi Programming Course. In our previous tutorial, we have seen the interfacing of a PIR Sensor with Raspberry Pi 4 . In today's tutorial, we will interface an Ultrasonic sensor with Raspberry Pi and will use Python to perform its calculations. So, let's get started: Components: Here's the list of components, we are going to use in today's project: Raspberry Pi 4 Ultrasonic sensor Male-to-female jumper wires Breadboard 1k ohm resistor 2k ohm resistor What are Ultrasonic Sensors? An Ultrasonic Sensor consists of a transmitter and a receiver, the transmitter emits the ultrasonic wave, which after hitting some object bounces back and receives by the ultrasonic receiver.

Hello guys! I hope you’re all in a good mood today because we are going to review the design of an interesting project today. We’ll be looking to design 4-way traffic lights in such a way that their delay is variable and is dependent upon the traffic density. This project is of intermediate difficulty level for people studying in undergrad engineering school with electronics, electrical and mechatronics as their major. It is also for the people learning Arduino and basic circuit design on their own or through some course. We have already designed a Simple 4-Way Traffic Light Control using Arduino and today we will make it smart by adding a variable delay.

Hi Geeks, welcome to our new project. Our new project is one of the most common issues you’ve seen in your cities. In this project, we are going to make a car parking system with automatic billing. In the entire world, there are an estimated 1.4 billion cars on the road, which is absolutely great news if we are considering the development of the Automobile industry. But the most serious issue is that the number of cars exceeds the number of available parking places, resulting in traffic congestion. Damaged cars due to this lack of space, fewer parking locations, lack of parking signage, informal parking, and overcharging for parking are just a few of the issues. Libraries Libraries used in this project Arduino Library for Proteus: V2.0 (2021, used in this project) · latest version: V4.0 (O ...
