Motor Control via Infrared Distance Sensor
Posted January 3, 2013 by Chris
“In this article, we will go step-by-step through the process of understanding, designing and building a system that uses an infrared proximity sensor for input, correlates that input to how far away an object is from the sensor and then drives a motor and some LEDs at distinct speeds depending upon the proximity of the object.”

estimado amigo(a)estoy investigando sobre transmisión por s.p.i. pic (18f4550)para realizar un circuito que controle un motor jaula de ardilla a través por con un teclado matricial con maestro y esclavo; por ejemplo si estuviera a su alcance cierta información que me sirviera de ayuda se lo estaría eternamente agradecido y mas adelante podríamos intercambiar conocimientos en tal caso que estuviera de acuerdo; sin mas que decir me despido de usted esperando una pronta respuesta.

This will create better understanding of the material. Art helps
relieve stress and divert minds from useless thoughts. You don’t
even have to wait to see if you passed as the results are immediate
and you can even print your own certificate.
