-Surveillance Using Raspberry Pi Camera NORTHWESTERN POLYTECHNIC UNIVERSITY, CA. The camera module is attached to the Raspberry Pi model. External hard drives are used for data storage. Successfully, take still pictures and apply various image effects and exposure modes are executed., -Mems Based Hand Gesture Controlled Robot JNT UNIVERSITY, SSJE COLLEGE. Controlling the Robot using MEMS. The MEMS will be fixed to the hand. Whenever the hand moves in any direction, the mechanical movement of the hand will be recognized by MEMS. MEMS convert this mechanical hand movement into equivalent electrical signals and send it to the microcontroller. The microcontroller at the transmitter side receives this and sends corresponding signals to the receiver side through ZIGBEE. The controller at the receiver side receives these signals and gives direction to the robot., -Organizing/Student Head, http://tech-hubssj.blogspot.in Tech-Hub SSJEC R&D.
