The Anglo-Australian Observatory has developed a 2nd generation optical CCD controller to replace an earlier controller used now for almost twenty years. The new AAO2 controller builds on the considerable experience gained with the first controller, the new technologies now available and the techniques developed and successfully implemented in AAO’s IRIS2 detector controller. The AAO2 controlle...

In recent years, multiprocessor designs have converged towards a unified hardware architecture despite supporting different communication abstractions. The implementation of these communication abstractions and the associated protocols in hardware is complex, inflexible, and error prone. For these reasons, some recent designs have employed a programmable controller to manage system communicatio...

In this paper an innovative method for robotic manipulator kinematic control and supervision is proposed, both locally, by operator panel, both remote by the use of short-message. A programmable logical controller (PLC) is adopted to obtain a versatile and applicable solution in any robotic system. In particular the problem of end effector positioning in a desired point of the work space of an ...

The paper is focused on an application of commercial systems for visualisation and control of technological processes. These systems are designed for data visualisation. The data are measured by a programmable controller. The systems InTouch, Wizcon and ContolWeb2000 were used. Monitoring and control system was tested on the real equipment. The programmable controller controls the surface of tw...

Building automation systems control a facility’s climate, lighting and similar systems, and equipment automation systems control machines and processes. They are often driven by programmable automation controllers (PACs) and use a human-machine interface (HMI) for configuration, notifications and routine control. With these systems growing in number and increasingly interconnected, programmable...

Evolutionary algorithms (EA) offer good promise for automated design of analog circuits as well as for adaptation and automatic reconfiguration of programmable devices. In particular, EAs faciitate the design of analog Circuits for very specific requirements, such as those related to the implementation of fuzzy operators, or even of complete fuzzy systems. The paper starts with a brief overview...

Sorting is an important thing in which any items or products can be differentiated based on their size, height and color. In order to sort items, we need to be able to compare them, i.e., to determine whether the object coming through the conveyor is smaller, greater, or equal to the respected height. Here we are going to do a simple object sorting system using the Programmable Logic Controller...

ABSTARCT: Since the industrial revolution took place in 18th century, various improvements have been done in the sector of industry. The sole principle behind it was to reduce the human efforts by means of automation. A Programmable Logic Controller(PLC) has created a huge impact in the field of automation because of its exceptional capabilities. It has transformed the industry into a new era a...
