Instead of using a led based display we can implement MQTT protocol to get the end result from the sensor in our smartphone with help of raspberry pi. That will allow to record the result more conveniently. During the implementation of MQTT protocol, the raspberry pi module will work as MQTT broker and both Arduino and Smartphone will be MQTT client. The broker will receive sensory data from the Arduino (1st client) and then it will forward the message to the smartphone (2nd client). As the system will only be used to receive the data collected by the sensor and processed by the arduino and not to control the sensor, it will be uni-directional; that means we will opt out the part to control any sensor from the smartphone application. | Instead of using a led based display we can implement MQTT protocol to get the end result from the sensor in our smartphone with help of raspberry pi.

Objective
Developing the speed measuring unit for any car project
Hardware
Sensor
1. Sharp 2D120X F 09
The Sharp distance measuring sensor is used to determine the speed/ velocity of the car unit. In this case, two identical sensors were used. According to the manufacturer SHARP, the range of the sensor is 4 cm to 30 cm, typical response time apprx. 39 ms, typical start up delay apprx. 44 ms, Average Current Consumption: 33 mA. The operating temperature is -10°C to 60°C, so that is ideal for this project as it is initially an indoor project. according to the stamp on the sensor, the manufacturing date was September 2016. According to the data sheet, the sensor should be mounted on any frame in such way that it gives the optimum result. For that the general instructions are available on the Data Sheet.
Current status of the Speed Tracker
The sensor parts are fully functional. The display board of the measured speed is under development
Display
LED Based 8 segment display
A simple LED based 8 segment display was implemented for the project last time. For reference, the LED tutorial guide for Micro-controller was used. But it had limitation. So we are now upgrading the display with C547B transistor. An initial model is developed with C547B transistor. The test run is not done yet. The hardware setup is archived in the data base. [Update] 1. The circuit for LED display worked. It was tested for one segment, consisting two LED. The supply voltage was 5V, base resistor 1K ohm, collector resistor 470 Ohm. 2. We finalized the complete circuit setup for the LED display. But we will now implement a LCD display. The reason for doing that, a digital LCD display will enable us to showcase more data related to the speed tracking sensor. Also the data can be transferable and possible to store it for future reference.
LCD Display Blue with I2C
The LCD display we will use is QAPASS LCD I²C. This is a variant of the normal LCD display. It is combined with an I²C module.
