INTRODUCTION

Parents in the present world are busy in their professional

life, so they do not get sufficient time to take care of their
babies. it is inconvenient for parents to constantly watch over
their newborn baby while doing their work or chores. So we
have designed an simple system which helps parents in taking
care of baby. This system proposes a simple voice detection
system which can be applied practically for designing a device
with capability to detect a babys cry.The system is based on
Arduino microcontroller. Whenever the baby cries it is
detected by the controller with the help of Mic and in order to
that turns on the music and sleep mechanism which creates
soothing sound as well as dim lights which makes baby sleep
again gently. In this project a program is implemented to detect
an infant’s crying. It can detect baby’s cry while ignoring other
sounds like clap, sneeze, fan, sudden sounds, environment
sounds etc.

BLOCK DIAGRAM DESCRIPTION:

In this block diagram, weshows how to work the project in a

simple method. In the project the main part is controller that is
Arduino board. we will connect different peripherals to the
Arduino. In this we connect Sound Sensor, Relay Module, etc.
this project will helpful for baby sheeter. So here we use sound
sensor to detect the voice of crying baby. Then the relay
module is used to turn on or off the music system. In music
player we added some music which will helpful to sleep the
baby. Whenever the baby will cry the sound sensor will detect
it and send signal to the Arduino. Then Arduino send signal to
the relay. The relay will turn on so automatically music will be
playing. And this process will continuously happen until baby
isn’t stop crying.

INTRODUCTION TO THE ATMEGA328P:-

Fig: Pin diagram of Arduino(ATMEGA328P)

 Pin Descriptions:-
1. Power USB:- Arduino board can be powered by using the USB cable from your
computer. All you need to do is connect the USB cable to the USB connection.

2. Power (Barrel Jack):-Arduino boards can be powered directly from the AC

mains power supply by connecting it to the Barrel Jack.

3. Voltage Regulator:-The function of the voltage regulator is to control the voltage

given to the Arduino board and stabilize the DC voltages used by the processor
and other elements.

4. Crystal Oscillator:-The crystal oscillator helps Arduino in dealing with time

issues. How does Arduino calculate time? The answer is, by using the crystal
oscillator. The number printed on top of the Arduino crystal is 16.000H9H. It tells
us that the frequency is 16,000,000 Hertz or 16 MHz.

5. Arduino Reset:-You can reset your Arduino board, i.e., start your program from
the beginning. You can reset the UNO board in two ways. First, by using the reset
 2024

button on the board. Second, you can connect an external reset button to the
Arduino pin labelled RESET.

6. Analog pins:-The Arduino UNO board has six analog input pins A0 through A5.
These pins can read the signal from an analog sensor like the humidity sensor or
temperature sensor and convert it into a digital value that can be read by the
microprocessor.

7. Digital I/O:-The Arduino UNO board has 14 digital I/O pins (15) (of which 6
provide PWM (Pulse Width Modulation) output. These pins can be configured to
work as input digital pins to read logic values (0 or 1) or as digital output pins to
drive different modules like LEDs, relays, etc. The pins labeled “~” can be used to
generate PWM.

FEATURES:-
 6v to 20V
 Digital input/output pins are 14
 Analog i/p pins are 7
 DC Current for each input/output pin is 40 mA
 DC Current for 3.3V Pin is 50 mA
 Flash Memory is 32 KB
 SRAM is 2 KB
 EEPROM is 1 KB
 CLK Speed is 16 MHz

5.1 POWER SUPPLY CIRCUIT:-

Fig: Block diagram of Power Supply

Each of the blocks is described in more detail below:

 Transformer - steps down high voltage AC mains to low voltage AC.

 Rectifier - converts AC to DC, but the DC output is varying.

 Smoothing - smoothes the DC from varying greatly to a small ripple.

 Regulator - eliminates ripple by setting DC output to a fixed voltage.

Bridge rectifier:

A bridge rectifier can be made using four individual diodes, but it is also available in
special packages containing the four diodes required. It is called a full-wave Rectifier
because it uses the entire AC wave (both positive and negative sections).

1.4V is used up in the bridge rectifier because each diode uses 0.7V when conducting
and there are always two diodes conducting, as shown in the diagram below. Bridge
rectifiers are rated by the maximum current they can pass and then maximum reverse
voltage they can withstand (this must be at least three times the supply RMS voltage
so the rectifier can withstand the peak voltages
 2024

Smoothing:

Smoothing is performed by a large value electrolytic capacitor connected across the

DC supply to act as a reservoir, supplying current to the output when the varying DC
voltage from the rectifier is falling. The diagram shows the unsmoothed varying DC
(dotted line) and the smoothed DC (solid line). The capacitor charges quickly near the
peak of the varying DC, and then discharges as it supplies current to the output.

Voltage regulator:

Voltage regulator ICs are available with fixed (typically 5, 12 and 15V) or variable
output voltages. They are also rated by the maximum current they can pass. Negative
voltage regulators are available, mainly for use in dual supplies. Most regulators
include some automatic protection from excessive current ('overload protection') and
overheating ('thermal protection'). Below is the circuit diagram of power supply
which gives output of 5V, as only that much is required for microcontroller. Its circuit
diagram are given below.

Circuit diagram of 5V Power Supply

The +5 volt power supply is based on the commercial 7805 voltage regulator
IC. This IC contains all the circuitry needed to accept any input voltage from 9 to
12 volts and produce a steady +5 volt output, accurate to within 5% (0.25 volt).

5.2 SOUND SENSOR :-

The sound sensor consist of Microphone as a transducer, potentionmeter to adjust

the intensity, LM386 low power audio amlifier, LED and other passive
components like resistors and capacitors.

You can set a threshold value using a potentiometer so that when the amplitude of
the sound exceeds the threshold value, the module will output LOW otherwise
HIGH.

One object of this design is to provide a system for coin identification that does
not require close tolerances, and therefore cannot be so readily jammed as prior
systems.

This sensor includes 3 pins and they are,

 Pin1 (VCC): 3.3V DC to 5V DC

 Pin2 (GND): This is aground pin
 Pin3 (OUT): This is an output pin. It provides high signal when there is no
sound and goes LOW when sound is detected. You can connect it to any
digital pin on an Arduino or directly to a 5V relay or similar device.

LED:-
 2024

A light-emitting diode (LED) is a semiconductor light source that emits light

when current flows through it. Electrons in the semiconductor recombine
with electron holes, releasing energy in the form of photons. The color of the light
(corresponding to the energy of the photons) is determined by the energy required
for electrons to cross the band gap of the semiconductor.[5] White light is
obtained by using multiple semiconductors or a layer of light-emitting phosphor
on the semiconductor device.

5.3 RELAY MODULE

A power relay module is an electrical switch that is operated by an

electromagnet.The electromagnet is activated by a separate low-power signal from
a micro controller. When activated, the electromagnet pulls to either open or close
an electrical circuit.

ALGORITHM:

7.2CONCLUSION:

In this paper, an intelligent baby cradle system was developed. The

cradle was capable of detecting the baby crying sound while ignoring

other sounds like clap, sneeze, fan, sudden sounds, environment sounds

etc.The individual devices were assembled and was observed to be

working efficiently at the time of baby’s cry detected by the sound

sensor and turn on music player until baby doesn’t stop crying and it

will turn on music player. This product is mainly useful for working

parents, hearing impaired & blind parents.
