Load control using projected VR system of wallmounted buttons

Abstract

Security is the main aspect in all industries, especially in industries like gas, nuclear, mining and chemical industries, where a small mistake takes away lives and damages huge properties. Also User Interface (UI) and User Experience (UX) is an important factor nowadays. Changing the location, design of switches is a difficult task and its cost increases on each activity. The proposed system provides strict safety on electrical leakage of switches, the user interface and user experience can be improved and modified according to our needs. It uses a virtual reality projector, wireless transmitter and a pc to operate. The virtual button is operated by the area of the shadow of the user and sends the signal to the microcontroller through the wireless device. It activates the respective load through the relay, on which the user objects the projection of virtual switches (i.e.) It calculates the hand's shadow that objects the projection). As there is no morphing of image and other processes, time for the operation is minimized as much as possible. In addition to that, the buttons visibility, UI and UX can also be changed according to our needs.
