Abstract

This project will cover about designing a washing machine simulator using microcontroller system, sensor and several other devices. This washing machine simulator is housed in a hard box consists a user controls. The unit incorporates a series of input and output devices which together simulate the action of a typical domestic washing machine. This system uses microcontroller as a tool to collect input data, process and release output data. Proteus 6 Professional software used to simulate the microcontroller program. This system will function when the water level sensor detect the proper fixed water level. The sensor setup level is low and full condition. If overflow situation happens, the system will automatically stop and then the buzzer will activate. The input signal from the sensor will be send to microcontroller system, output actions released base on requirement programmed. Motor will generates with certain speed depends on load condition (clothes) which is drive by a speed stimulator. The seven-segment display is used to display the operation status same as real operation of domestic washing machine. The significant of project is to give an idea to combine a microcontroller system with additional devices (motor, sensor, buzzer, etc). Microcontroller is also flexible and can be applied to control other system quickly and easily. Besides, this project will be a reference material to the future student or consumer in order to understand the application of washing machine easily.
