Petrol Pump
Petrol is sold at Rs. 50/litre. A dip-switch allows the user to select petrol to be filled up to the required quantity or equivalent of the money inserted. Amount of the petrol transferred is shown on the 7-Segment Display and incremented in units of 0.1 litre or 5 rupees according to the already selected quantity or money-mode. The counter should stop when the required amount of fuel has been filled and reset itself after 10 seconds, if not manually done by the user. 3 Home Security System
Security System allows the user to set a 2-bit security code at will. When the security system is switched on, it monitors the doors and as soon as a breach is detected, it sounds an alarm which is indicated by a flashing LED. If the correct security-code is not entered within 10 seconds, then a phone call is made to the already stored-in numbers and a message recorded. All this is simulated by flashing another LED on the board. If at any time, the user enters the correct security code, then alarm-sounding is switched off. 4 Traffic Lights
Traffic lights in a square (only RED and GREEN) are implemented and shown through LEDs. A downcounter shows the time the GREEN signal is going to stay on. After a GREEN turns RED, for 2-seconds all the signals remain RED. Amount of traffic crossing is also considered. 2 dip-switches simulate the traffic on each road. For low-traffic (dip-switch combination = 00), GREEN stays on for 30 seconds, mediumtraffic (dip-switch combination =10 || 01), GREEN stays on for 40 seconds and for high-traffic (dip-switch combination = 11), GREEN stays on for 50 seconds. The default time is 40 seconds. If during a GREEN, low-traffic is observed on the road, then the next GREEN time should be reduced to 30 seconds.
Parking Lot
There are 16 available spaces in the lot. Number of places left should be shown on the 7-Segment Display. The system monitors the in and out traffic and updates the available spaces. When the parking lot is full, an LED is lit up to show it. As soon as a car enters the lot, a space is reserved for it and the space number flashed on the 7-Segment Display for 4 seconds. This would guide the user to the allotted space in the lot. The system also monitors the spaces that are parked and are free. 6 Customer Information System
System monitors the number of customers visiting a store. The number of customers entering the store is controlled by 2 dip-switches which allow customers to enter the store in groups 1, 2, 3 and 4 persons for dip-switch combination 0, 1, 2 and 3 respectively. 2 dip-switches are reserved for controlling the going inout of store activity of the customers. The number of customers present in the store at any time is shown on the 7-Segment Display. Another dip-switch controls if the store is open or closed. The system maintains a record of the number of customers visiting every day, the number of customers who actually bought something and the amount of sale. If any of these is surpassed on a day, it is indicated by lighting the corresponding LED. 7 Digital Cameras Battery and Memory Management
Suppose that the digital camera uses a non-rechargeable battery cells and their life is equivalent to 40 pictures without flash or 20 pictures with flash. The camera can have a memory card of size 32MB, 64MB, 128 MB or 256MB. The camera can take pictures at a resolution of 3MP, 5MP, 7MP or 8MP which take 3MB, 5MB, 7MB or 8MB space on the memory card respectively. The 7-Segment Display shows the number of pictures that can still be taken at the selected resolution. An LED shows the battery status; solid shows good power (more than 30%), flashing shows low-battery (between 1% and 29%) and a dead LED shows dead-battery. The camera also checks at startup if new battery is installed. The camera should not

switch on when the battery is dead. The camera should not take any more pictures if the memory is full, an error message should be displayed by flashing LED. 8 Payphone
Phone calls are made at a rate of Re.1 per 10 seconds. But the minimum amount to be inserted to be able to use the payphone is Rs. 5 which gives user 50 seconds of talk time. No change is returned if user does not avail all the 50 seconds. If a user wants to call longer than 50 seconds, then he must insert Re.1 or more to get the required time at the rate of Re. 1 per 10 seconds. If he inserts, Rs.2 and talks for less than 10 seconds then, he is entitled to Re. 1 change. Change, if any, is returned at the end of the phone call. Payphone only accepts Rs. 1, 2 and 5 coins (implemented through dip-switches). The 7-Segment Display shows the amount of time left for the user and the call is disconnected when the counter reaches zero. An LED remains lit-up as long as the call is connected. 9 Money Converter
This machine converts coins into currency notes and currency notes into coins of same value. Using a dipswitch, user selects if he wants coins or currency notes in return for his money. The machine accepts Rs. 1, 2 and 5 coins and Rs. 10, 20 and 50 notes. The 7-Segment Display shows the money inserted by the user and updates whenever he inserts a coin or a currency note. After the user has entered all his money in, change is given back. This is shown by lighting-up the corresponding LEDs. 10 Automatic Train Ticketing
There are 4 destinations A, B, C and D and their fare is Rs. 4, 6, 8 and 10 respectively. When the machine is switched on, it shows the fare to the selected destination station. When the user selects the give-ticket option through dip-switch, the machine waits for the user to insert the required fare. The machine accepts Rs. 1, 2 and 5 coins and Rs. 10 notes. 7-Segment Display now shows the amount that the user entered. Ticket is dispatched when the required amount is deposited, indicated by lighting an LED. Change, if any, is given after the ticket is dispatched. If at anytime before the required amount of money is inserted, the user changes his mind and presses the return button; all his money should be returned.
