    Project Suggestion
AI Thread Summary
Naveen is exploring the implementation of a GSM-based device to monitor and control irrigation motors in remote agricultural areas of India. He aims to provide farmers with real-time updates on motor status, current conditions, and potential issues to enhance efficiency and reduce travel time to fields. The project seeks to address the lack of practical applications for electrical engineering concepts in real-life scenarios. Naveen is looking for support and guidance on hardware requirements, including circuit board options like Arduino or Raspberry Pi, and is concerned about affordability for farmers. The discussion emphasizes the need for practical projects that can genuinely benefit society and improve agricultural practices.

Hi i am naveen well in these days we can find many electrical engineers achievements where there are many mini and main project in those basic small example : on and off of motor in agricultural field by using gsm technology are these Technics are really applied in real life for name sake have we implemented it. only in few places it have been implemented.where as many such applications are there which are not implemented if we implement somewhat we could help our society.and we can get gain knowledge in core part. b-tech graduates are doing this project for name sake (not all, only few are doing heart fully) i don't want all those big projects if at-least we can implement this then we can go to higher project.

i am going to try one of those mini basic example of agricultural field in remote area i mean in less developed area. i want to built a device with following specification:

Agricultural Bases:

1: showing current status
2: which phase current is there
3: condition of motor
4: on and off of motor
5: minimum usage of current
6: status of motor

in India there are still few places where farmers have to travel 5 to 6 km to their field.we have to overcome this difficulty.

now main question are:

1: weather this project can be done successfully or not
2: will anyone support this
3: what are the dis advantage and advantages in this
4: is there anything else that we can implement in this
5: i am working on this i need some more to help me on hardware purpose (its totally voluntary work just for knowledge)

don't mind it might be silly but i should have a clarity and i need help i thought it might help me

Welcome to the PF, Naveen.

It sounds like you would like to provide farmers with information on the status of some motors at their remote farms. Could you say more about what these motors do? Are they for irrigation or some other purpose?

And what means do you see using for getting this information from the fields to the farmer's homes? Is powerline communication a possibility, or RF, or cell phone, or other means a possibility?

What information do you want to transfer, and how ofetn?
 
thanks a lot sir thanks for the reply

information in sense weather at that moment what's the condition of motor weather is work or not.
is voltage fluctuation is there or not if its there motor would be damaged. motor in field for irrigation purpose.

from sitting in home farmer sends a message for status to check weather there is current or not.and if current is there what's the status of irrigation motor.and if motor status is good what's the current status and is every thing is fine motor starts and it runs for required period is automatically shut downs.if any damage occurs to motor it should intimate farmer
its like totally remote motor control using gsm

i m just a fresher perusing my 3rd year in b-tech i am having less knowledge in this part i need to know what are the requirements for this which type of circuit board to be used like aurdino board etc or using new technology reberry pi etc

what are the thing really need for this and what would be the cost for this
can an ordinary farmer afford it?

Hey guys. I have a question related to electricity and alternating current. Say an alien fictional society developed electricity, and settled on a standard like 73V AC current at 46 Hz. How would appliances be designed, and what impact would the lower frequency and voltage have on transformers, wiring, TVs, computers, LEDs, motors, and heating, assuming the laws of physics and technology are the same as on Earth?
I used to be an HVAC technician. One time I had a service call in which there was no power to the thermostat. The thermostat did not have power because the fuse in the air handler was blown. The fuse in the air handler was blown because there was a low voltage short. The rubber coating on one of the thermostat wires was chewed off by a rodent. The exposed metal in the thermostat wire was touching the metal cabinet of the air handler. This was a low voltage short. This low voltage...
Thread 'Electromagnet magnetic field issue'
Hi Guys We are a bunch a mechanical engineers trying to build a simple electromagnet. Our design is based on a very similar magnet. However, our version is about 10 times less magnetic and we are wondering why. Our coil has exactly same length, same number of layers and turns. What is possibly wrong? PIN and bracket are made of iron and are in electrical contact, exactly like the reference design. Any help will be appreciated. Thanks. edit: even same wire diameter and coil was wounded by a...
