Smart Cart

 

The system will combine the steps of shopping and checking out by utilizing RFID  tags on the products and scanning them as they are placed in the cart.  A running total will be kept on the cart with the customers able to pay with a card on the cart.

Home Security Lighting System

 

Our project is a lighting system that uses an Arduino, LCD screen, keypad, and relay bank to be able to turn the lights on and off in a house via programmable set times with the keypad and LCD screen. This system runs in parallel with one's regular house wiring and does not affect the current lighting system in the house.

Anti-lock braking system for the Formula SAE car

 

We have designed and tested an anti-lock braking system which will be used to help Auburn’s team to be more competitive in the Formula SAE braking competition. We repurposed an ABS valve block from a Mazda Miata, wheel speed sensors, and multiple Arduino microcontrollers to achieve a functional system to prevent wheel lockup during emergency braking situations.
