- Abstract
- Based on the infrared communication method, one kind of new electric aluminium blinds controller is designed in this research. The new developed electric aluminium blind is driven by a DC motor with high gear-ration gearbox, with an 8 bits PIC microcontroller being in rapport with infrared local receiver, remote transmitter, encoder-like device and the other a lot of passive devices. The control command is generated by the user when the function-defined key is pressed. The mapping digital signals of the control command will first be integrated into the setting address data and then transmitted in series by means of infrared medium bit by bit. The control command is received by the receiver is also bit by bit. They are partitioned into address data and control command. In case of the address data is the same as the setting value in receiver, the received data will be outputted right now to control the hoped action of the electric aluminium blind. The performance of the proposed controller of the electric aluminium blind was validated through extensive experiments and a laboratory scale implementation.
