  • Budget:

    $30-$250 USD

Project Description:

This project requires some hardware for microprocessor, software for microprocessor and website. Minimizing hardware cost is the highest priority.

Allow Microchip PIC microprocessor to connect to PC via USB port and exchange data with a website. It is preferred that this is accomplished without requiring installation of drivers (use standard HID or other generic drivers included in Windows). The microprocessor device is very cost sensitive. FTDI and most other USB binder chips are too expensive so we seek very a inexpensive method of binding Microchip PIC to a PC USB port.

The PIC microcontroller will be used as a portable time and temperture datalogger in outdoor applications. Typically the user would bring the device into a laboratory from the field, connect the to a PC then log on to a website. On the website there would be an "upload" button which would allow the user to find and select the device. Upon device selection data can be exchanged between website and microprocessor. Data would typically consist of a 64 bit id number, date, time, and up to two thousand 32 bit numbers. This project requires some hardware for microprocessor, software for microprocessor and website.

Skills required:

C Programming, Electronics, Java, Javascript, PHP

    Dear Sir,
    We need some clarifications regarding this.
    Whether component and shipping costs are to be included in the bidding else, you guys will provide them.

    Dear waltblareman,

    We are very interested in your project. Here I have a question:

    From project description, I understood that there is a webserver located somewhere, and the webserver should have the function to find and select the device. If so, and if no additional driver is allowed on PC end, a common approach is to make the PIC as a USB storage device. However, the manual operation might not be comfort. Moreover, a seperate webserver on PC, should be set up, bringing additional cost, and complexity.

    Probably there is a choice to fully meet this project request, while making things more easily to be implemented and operated: Site the webserver directly in the PIC with ethernet feature, and interface the PC with PIC using LAN port, which is easily found on PC. This approach eliminates the need of a webserver on PC end. More important, it offers a fairly simple way to download, upload, and also configure the device from ANY PC or PDA with internet explorer, all implemented by embedded webserver inside PIC. An example is the configuration of the router at home: just type the IP Address, and click mouse.

    We have already built several very successful devices for our customer, using the LAN approach. If necessary, I could send some demo to you for evaluation.

    I've wrote quite a bit, and hopefully this could be a useful suggestion.

    Thank you again

    Don't worry about the data logging part. The important function is Microchip PIC to USB to internet website. Upload data from device to website server from a Windows computer with XP or later. If possible set the device real time clock from the website server clock. The device must be absolutely as inexpensive as possible as most get destroyed or lost. Please consider the following components for minimum cost: PIC16C745, DS1337(clock/calandar), 24C128 (I2C memory). The goal is less than $10(US). There will be no analog sensors for this project.

    Data stored in the device will be in the following format:
    Device ID: 64 bits (generated by DS1337)
    Configuration: 16 bits
    Current Time: DD-MM-YY-HH-MM

    Data Field(1): #,DD,MM,YY,HH,MM,8bit header,64bit number,32bit number,32 bit number
    to
    Data Field(x): #,DD,MM,YY,HH,MM,8bit header,64bit number,32bit number,32 bit number

    If you can develop a prototype device that can perform the functions outlined with simulated data (format above), then we can further develop the datalogging portion.

    Sorry if there is any confusion. Feel free to ask questions.

Hello, We are an Electronic Design House based in Pune, India specializing in Prototype Projects and Design Documentation. We have a strong technical team that specializes in Embedded Hardware , Firmware and PC Based Software. We bring to the table strong design and documentation skills. We can understand the design and document it as per user needs. The engineers are extremely fluent in English and working with them will not be an issue. Development work gets done in India and we have a sales team in West LA. We have an excellent network connectivity, VOIP setup for direct communication with US/European/Middle East clients. We will be able to work on this project. We propose that we can remove USB part and can implement TCP/IP stack directly on PIC microcontroller. Design cost of project will be $250 and it will be completed in 2 months. For working prototype seperate quote will be given. This is tentative schedule from our side. If you have any plans in your mind then that will be followed and accordingly executed. We can provide references whenever required from US, India and Japan. Please let me know if any other information is required. Regards, Yogesh less

I would need more details on this project. Assuming you already know which PIC you are going to use and you would need the software written for it (Coding the interface SW, Setting up the web server, devise protocol for data exchange, web site to log everything), this job would cost much more than $250. If say, you would also need the hardware design with cost optimization which includes selecting the only necessary components at the lowest cost (Schematic, PCB Layout, Gerber, prototyping). I assume that you would be needing different kinds of sensor for detecting outdoor environment. Are these sensors provided or needs to be purchased? This would be another lump sum of money. I want to know what you have currently and what you want to achieve before I can give you a quotation on price and completion date. less
