We have developed a package for our college which completely
takes into account every aspect of college Registration section, Library section,
and the Hostel. The unique feature about this project is the use of Smart
Card for the authentication purpose. The standalone application for each of
the above mentioned departments has been developed using Visual Basic on Windows.
The centralized database is maintained using MySQL on Linux. We have setup
a web server on the same Linux machine. Every student can view his personal
details and details about the library and hostel dues on the web using the
username and password.
This project has helped me gain knowledge on the Serial Port, configuring
a database server, configuring a web server, and about handling of the Smart
Card Reader from our PC.
Well this project has been sponsred by KSCST ( Karnataka State Council of
Science and Technology ) and it has all been selected for a state level exhibition
where it was given the "Certificate of Commendation" and recoginised
This is project that we had undertaken to understand the working of the Parallel
Port. We have developed software that can be used to control a FM receiver
from your PC through the parallel port. The tuning of the FM receiver is controlled
using a stepper motor of a 5 ¼ floppy drive. The output from the receiver
is given as input to the line-in pin at the back of the PC and is played on
the PC speakers. The user can set the FM receiver to which ever frequency
he likes and he can also record the output of the receiver.
This project has helped me understand the working of Parallel Port and has
given me a hands on knowledge of programming with the Stepper Motor using
the Parallel Port.
