Introduction
1.1Backgrounds of the Project
Nowadays the technology has developed and grows up very fast. The technology has changed
our life to be easier. The technology is applied when drying the equipment and removing the
moisture where we call it an automatic moisture dryer devices. This device became our trend
where it made drying easier and faster.
This project can get publicity for people because it is easier when we use it. These devices
perform the drying and removing moisture content better than manual methods. This project will
reduce the usage of power, time, and cost and also all of the operation will be performs
automatically.
Our design team intends to conduct research into the design of new generation moisture dryer.
Typically, the outcome will be a synthesis of knowledge brought together in a novel or creative
manner. In this case, our project design will include an understanding of hygiene issues around
moisture driers developing a broad understanding of existing hand dryer products; establishing
the new technologies that may inform the drying process and new moisture dryer design
experiments. The purpose of this project is to develop smart, easy to use, cost effective and time
efficient automatic moisture drier for home appliance. This project is intended to translate and
apply the results from various scientific studies into a product design context.
We use air to dry our hand and paper towel and reusable close towel to dry equipment’s in our
home. When there is a moisture on our hand and home equipment’s such as dishes for a few
minutes, a number of bacteria are highly spread and grow automatically for examples when we
are washing our hands or washing equipment’s and the electronic equipment’s are easily
damaged in the presence of moisture due to rust caused by moisture, so our project is intended to
solve this problems.
1.3 Objective

The adoption of an automatic dryer is a good solution to the above stated problems, for long life
equipment and more easy usage of device.
This device is protecting our material from moisture. I.e. it can help to prevent metallic material
from rust which prevent electronic equipment from damage and also used for drying hand helps
to remove bacteria (since bacteria need moisture to grow at high range rate), so that we can
protected our health.
Generally the benefits that can get from this device are:
Easy for anyone to use, save the time used for drying, reduces the wastage of paper, it would fit
into the home because it doesn't look obtrusive and doesn't take up much space. There is no
wastage of energy since the device is automatic. The device display the time spent to dry
equipment. So, do not need to spend much time to dry materials

CHAPTER TWO
2. LITERATURE REVIW
A number of studies have been conducted over the last four decades to investigate the
effectiveness of equipment drying system. The majority of these studies have concentrated on
Clinical and food science scenarios. The data collected by these studies provide valuable insight
into hygiene practices, and will provide a better understanding of the limitations of the various
material drying mechanisms currently available.
With a strong focus on microbiological factors, most existing research on material drying
systems assumes that effective equipment drying should result in a quantitative reduction of
micro-organisms on a subject’s equipment’s.
Review of studies on the relative efficiency and hygiene of paper towels and hand dryers. And
paper towels won a resounding victory. “From a hygiene viewpoint, paper towels are superior to
electric air dryers,” the Mayo review’s abstract noted. But it’s not just that they are more
hygienic. People prefer them. Studies in 2009 and 2000 found a significant majority (55 percent
in the 2009 study, 62 percent in 2000) preferred paper towels to hot air or jet air dryers (no more
than 28 percent in either study).[12]
In the case of manual operational moisture dryer can use manually operated electrical equipment
that can done with switch on and off system. In this condition the system can sever different
problem if any shortage of electrical circuit and more physical contact between the equipment
also cause damage to the device. The operation of manual system is done mechanical access for
this reason it is difficult any one customers to use easily. [9]
Automatic Hand Dryers are activated by an infrared sensor when hands are placed under the air
outlet. IR Sensor Activated Touch Free Hand Drying Steel Cover with Porcelain Enamel Finish,
No Touch - Energy Efficient Operation. Universal Voltage - Automatically Adjusts to Voltages of
100 to 240 VAC - 50Hz Modern Design and Durable, Operates automatically using infrared
sensor
Simple Operation

System Design
3.1.1 Block Diagrams
The hardware unit of the prototype of the system is represented by the block diagram shown
below. It contains an AT89C51 microcontroller as the main processing unit and it gets inputs
from LDR (Light dependent resistor) when it is adjusted into suitable signal by operational
amplifier (CA3140). The data obtained from the sensors is control by the microcontroller and
through Buffer IC (ULN2003A) to interface the fun and heater. To achieve the system
requirements, it also uses LCD to display the information of the time that the user can spent to
dry the equipment and some relevant information to user.
The heater and fan will be connected to the microcontroller using a Buffer IC and 12V power
Operational amplifier
Vout= (Rf/Rz) VI
A resistor is often inserted between the non-inverting input and ground, reducing the input offset
voltage due to different voltage drops due to bias current, and may reduce distortion in some op-
amps.
Oscillator design
The heartbeat of every microcontroller design is the oscillator circuit. Most designs that demand
precise timing over a wide temperature range use a crystal oscillator.
Datasheet specifies that the Atmel AT89C51 is operational for an oscillators in the range 24 MHz
to 0 MHz (fully static paused). However, during initial flash programming and verification, it
requires an oscillator frequency in the range 24 MHz to 3 MHz
The fact is that the traces on the circuit board, nearby wires and all sorts of things
Contribute to the total capacitance. This extra capacitance generated by things
Such as that is called 'parasitic capacitance'. This value could
Be anything, but normally is between 7-10pF. So anyway, enough chatter about
This, let’s see how we figure out the proper value of the capacitor.
So for our example crystal that had a load capacitor value of 20pF

Pin Configurations
Pin Description
GND Ground
Port 0
Port 0 is an 8-bit open-drain bi-directional I/O port. When 1s are written to port 0 pins, the pins
can be used as high impedance inputs. In this mode P0 has internal pull-ups. Port 0 also receives
the code bytes during Flash programming, and outputs the code bytes during program
verification. External pull-ups are required during program verification.
Port 1
Port 2
Port 3
When 1s are written to Port 3 pins they are pulled high by the internal pull-ups and can be used
as inputs. As inputs, Port 3 pins that are externally being pulled low will source current because
of the pull-ups. Port 3 also receives some control signals for Flash programming and verification.
Port 3 also serves the functions of various special features of the AT89C51 as listed below:
RST
Reset input. A high on this pin for two machine cycles while the oscillator is running resets the
device.
ALE/PROG
Address Latch Enable output pulse for latching the low byte of the address during accesses to
external memory. This pin is also the program pulse input (PROG) during Flash programming.
In normal operation ALE is emitted at a constant rate of 1/6 the oscillator frequency, and may be
used for external timing or clocking purposes. Note, however, that one ALE pulse is skipped
during each access to external Data Memory. Setting the ALE disable bit has no effect if the
microcontroller is in external execution mode.
PSEN
Program Store Enable is the read strobe to external program memory. When the AT89C51 is
executing code from external program memory, PSEN is activated twice each machine cycle,
except that two PSEN activations are skipped during each access to external data memory.
EA/VPP
External Access Enable, EA must be strapped to GND in order to enable the device to fetch code
from external program memory locations starting at 0000H up to FFFFH. Note, however, that if
lock bit 1 is programmed, EA will be internally latched on reset. EA should be strapped to VCC
for internal program executions. This pin also receives the 12-volt programming enable voltage
(VPP) during Flash programming, for parts that require 12-volt VPP.
XTAL1
Input to the inverting oscillator amplifier and input to the internal clock operating circuit.
XTAL2
Oscillator Characteristics
XTAL1 and XTAL2 are the input and output, respectively, of an inverting amplifier which can
be configured for use as an on-chip oscillator, as shown in Figure 1. Either a quartz crystal or
ceramic resonator may be used.
To drive the device from an external clock source, XTAL2 should be left unconnected while
XTAL1 is driven as shown in Figure 2.There are no requirements on the duty cycle of the
external clock signal, since the input to the internal clocking circuitry is through a divide-by-two
flip-flop, but minimum and maximum voltage high and low time specifications must be
observed.
The CA3140 are integrated circuit operational amplifiers that combine the advantages of high
voltage PMOS transistors with high voltage bipolar transistors on a single monolithic chip. The
CA3140 BiMOS operational amplifiers feature gate protected MOSFET (PMOS) transistors in
the input circuit to provide very high input impedance, very low input current, and high speed
performance. The CA3140 operate at supply voltage from 4V to 36V (either single or dual
supply). These operational amplifiers are internally phase compensated to achieve stable
operation in unity gain follower operation, and additionally, have access terminal for a
supplementary external capacitor if additional frequency roll-off is desired. Terminals are also
provided for use in applications requiring input offset voltage nulling. The use of PMOS field
effect transistors in the input stage results in common mode input voltage capability down to
0.5V below the negative supply terminal, an important attribute for single supply applications.
The output stage uses bipolar transistors and includes built-in protection against damage from
load terminal short circuiting to either supply rail or to ground. The CA3140A and CA3140 are
intended for operation at supply voltages up to 36V (±18V).
LCD (Liquid Crystal Display) screen is an electronic display module and find a wide range of
applications. A 16x2 LCD display is very basic module and is very commonly used in various
devices and circuits. These modules are preferred over seven segments and other multi segment
LEDs. The reasons being: LCDs are economical; easily programmable; have no limitation of
displaying special & even custom characters (unlike in seven segments), animations and so on.
A 16x2 LCD means it can display 16 characters per line and there are 2 such lines. In this LCD
each character is displayed in 5x7 pixel matrix. This LCD has two registers, namely, Command
and Data.
The command register stores the command instructions given to the LCD. A command is an
instruction given to LCD to do a predefined task like initializing it, clearing its screen, setting the
cursor position, controlling display etc. The data register stores the data to be displayed on the
LCD. The data is the ASCII value of the character to be displayed on the LCD.

LCD initialization.
The steps that have to be done for initializing the LCD display is given below and these steps
are common for almost all applications.
The steps for sending data to the LCD module are given below. I have already said that the LCD
module has pins namely RS, R/W and E. It is the logic state of these pins that make the module
to determine whether a given data input is a command or data to be displayed.
If we omit the pull-up resistor, your AT89c51 will remain in reset (clear) mode on power-up, and
will not execute its program.
Resistor R1 and pushbutton switch S1 make up an actual reset circuit. When S1 is pressed, it
completes a low impedance connection from the RST pin to ground, forcing the AT89c51 into
reset (clear) mode. Resistor R1 is optional, and is used to limit the current on the RST pin to
prevent a condition called latch up— in which the input circuit of a CMOS chip can become
‘stuck’. Electrostatic discard (ESD) from a person touching the reset switch could potentially
cause latch-up.
If, having reviewed all aspects of this pattern, you have decided to use an RC-based reset
IR SENSOR
An infrared sensor is a device that is capable of emitting or receiving infrared waves in the form
of heat. While the vast majority of infrared sensors transmit and receive infrared waves, some
infrared sensors are only able to receive them. These types of infrared sensors are known as
passive infrared sensors, or PIR sensors, and are usually found in the form of motion detectors.
All infrared sensors are dependent on pyro-electric materials, which produce an electrical voltage
whenever it is heated or cooled. Most infrared sensors are coated with either parabolic mirrors or
Fresnel lenses in order to retrieve infrared waves from an entire room or area. As infrared waves
reach the sensor from different areas, they cause the sensor to generate a voltage in different
waves and can be used to trigger an alarm or activate another type of system.
Applications
Infrared sensors can be used in a number of applications but usually involve measuring distance,
detecting motion, or transferring data. In televisions and motion detectors, with televisions being
activated by an infrared remote and motion detectors are naturally, activated by motion. Used in
heat-seeking missile in order to detect their target.
Advantages
Infrared sensors are advantageous because they operate by using a type of electromagnetic wave
that is invisible to human eyes, harmless to users, and is naturally emitted by all objects.
Relatively inexpensive, Provide the most efficient method of detecting objects, especially while
they are moving, simple in design and provide a reliable method of detection. Small in size and
can be installed into virtually any electronic device. (Infrared remote)
The Light Dependent Resistor (LDR) is made from a piece of exposed semiconductor material
such as cadmium sulphide (CdS) photoconductive cells with spectral responses similar to that of
the human eye. Those changes its electrical resistance from several thousand Ohms in the dark to
only a few hundred Ohms when light falls upon it by creating hole-electron pairs in the material.
The net effect is an improvement in its conductivity with a decrease in resistance for an increase
in illumination. Also, photo resistive cells have a long response time requiring many seconds to
respond to a change in the light intensity.
Materials used as the semiconductor substrate include, lead sulphide (PbS), lead selenide (PbSe),
indium antimonide (InSb) which detect light in the infra-red range with the most commonly used
of all photoresistive light sensors being Cadmium Sulphide (Cds). Cadmium sulphide is used in
the manufacture of photoconductive cells because its spectral response curve closely matches
that of the human eye and can even be controlled using a simple torch as a light source. Typically
then, it has a peak sensitivity wavelength (λp) of about 560nm to 600nm in the visible spectral
range.
Photoconductive cells are used in many different types of circuits and applications, most of
which involves detecting the presence of light. For example, street lights use photo resistors to
detect whether it is day or night and turn the light or off accordingly. Photo resistors are also used
in digital cameras to detect how much light the camera is able to see and adjust the picture
quality accordingly. Photo resistors are also used in some clocks, alarms, and other electronic
devices that are semi dependent on sunlight.
The most commonly used photo resistive light sensors are the ORP12 Cadmium Sulphide
photoconductive cell. This light dependent resistor has a spectral response of about 610 nm in the
yellow to orange region of light.
Analog Applications
Camera Exposure Control
Auto Slide Focus-dual cell
Photocopy Machines-density of toner
Colorimetric Test Equipment
Electronic Scales-dual cell
Automatic Gain Control–modulatedlightsource
Digital Applications
Automatic Headlight Dimmer, Night Light Control, Oil Burner Flame Out, Street Light Control,
Absence / Presence (beam breaker)and Position Sensor. The sensitivity of a photo detector is the
relationship between the light falling on the device and the resulting output signal. In the case of
a photocell, one is dealing with the relationship between the incident light and the corresponding
resistance of the cell.
CHAPTER FOUR
In implementation and testing phase we are going to discuss each and every process that is
carried out in the system. We totally divided the process in four different cases.
Case 1
When the circuit power is on (when we run on the Protus.) In this case the LCD display the
“welcome” information and at this stage the motor and fun do not run .The switch is open which
is going to be closed by user if user present in next case.
Case 2
In this case a user is present and the switch is closed. Now the fan motor and the heater starts to
run in parallel, which is carried out the process of drying. At the same time the LCD display the
time that is used by user.
Case 3
In this case the user is still present, but the fan motor and heater stops automatically because the
time is expired. The LCD at this time display information “Your time is expired 10 Q!”
And check a switch if it is closed. If switch is closed it again starts to run the fan motor and
heater after 5second delay, otherwise it stop until another user comes back again.
Case 4
This is the last case in our system. Now the user finished using the device. The switch is now
opened. The motor fan and the heater stop to operate until another user come again.
CHAPTER FIVE
Automatic moisture dryers are better in quality and also inexpensive in terms of cost. In the old
days, there were no choices in the process of drying. If we want moisture dryer, you got a push
button, cast iron dryer, and it did the job. The advantages of automatic dryers are obvious. The
first is hygienic. We don’t have to touch an automatic hand dryer, reducing the possible spread of
germs that could be left on the dryer.
The second is energy savings. We only use the dryer for as long as you need it. Many timers
are set for 30 seconds. But the user may choose to leave after only 10 seconds of drying, wasting
the energy used for the rest of the cycle.
The first generation of sensors also had short life spans and needed to be replaced too frequently.
However, as electronic technology has improved, these problems are no longer so prevalent and
sensors and their circuit boards can now be some of the most reliable components in the dryer.
Sensors, which have fewer moving parts, are more reliable than push buttons. The sensor
usually costs more, however, so you may pay more for your automatic dryer than you will for
your push button dryer.
The third and probably the main reason why a lot of push button hand dryers are still specified is
that some people feel that they are not as easy to damage as motion-sensor hand dryers.
This is because some vandals will try to damage the automatic sensor either by scratching it or
putting gum on it.
Additionally dryers are programmed to stop running after a period of time if the sensor is
blocked, but the substance still needs to be removed from the dryer by a maintenance person.
No one these days wants to touch anything in the restroom and we particularly dislike banging
those buttons.
As new dryers are designed, we will notice that they are only being designed with automatic
versions. Eventually, there will be no more push button hand dryers.
This is an Automatic Hand Dryers which is activated by an infrared sensor when hands are
placed under the air outlet.
The result of this project show that if automatic moisture dryer is choices in the home more over
paper towel and manual switch based moisture dryer device. This project adds some feature to
increase user friend operation of the system such as LCD to display relevant information to the
user, and also use buffer IC to minimize electric shocking in the circuit.
The automatic moisture dryer device has overcomes the problem of energy consumption by
adjusting estimated time of drying equipment in the microcontroller.
5.3 Recommendation
From the results obtained, we made discussion in order to study the important things in our
project that could be possibly ignored during the development. Through the discussion we
determine the weakness and strength of our projects.
Weaknesses
Our system do not identify the content of moisture, it only uses AC power supply, with this
device only one person can use at a time and the fan motor rotates at a constant speed, i.e. do not
change speed of running motor depending up on moisture contents to be dried.
Strengths
Our system is a device that is a user friendly, Display all necessary information when it is on
process (It display the “welcome” information when it is on, when the user start to use display
time and when the time is up it display warning message “your time is expired” and at the end
when the user finished it display “thank you” message) and it does not need direct contact since
it is sensor based system.
The system will be work everywhere without depending on ac and electric power. It must be
performed on its amount of moisture contents of the materials means small and large moisture
contents are not dried at the same time interval. The fun system is installed above some length so
every users can’t use the system so it is better to installed (arrange) for conformability to every
users .The system will have detect automatically weather the equipment is dried but it only sense
the presence of the persons.
