What is Opticom?
 Opticom is a traffic light
2 ft.
preemption system currently used
by emergency vehicles to quickly
maneuver intersections
 Utilizes a powerful IR beacon
mounted on the emergency
vehicle
 IR sensors are mounted on
4 in.
the traffic lights
 14Hz frequency, newer
systems feature
authentication
Reduced speed zone beacon
 Placed in construction zones, school
zones, accident scenes or anywhere
a driving hazard exists
 User configurable via buttons and
seven segment displays
 Features alerts for school zone,
construction zone, accident scene,
and special event.
Beacon details
 Utilizes peak wavelength of
950nm at 38kHz, High
power emitters, estimate
1500ft line of sight range
 Encodes information into
RC-5 similar protocol
 41 high power emitters
 Flexible power supply
MirrorMate IR receiver
 Two different frequency receivers to accommodate the Opticom
system (14Hz) and the reduced speed zone beacon (38kHz)
 The 14Hz signal will be detected via photodiodes, band pass
filters, and firmware
 The 38kHz signal will be decoded using integrated IR
receiver/decoders. The encoded data will be interpreted by the
MCU
 Four directional receivers
located in the bottom of the
mirror determine direction

Android Development
 Application written in Java for Android version 2.3.4
(Gingerbread)
 Backwards compatible with all future Android versions
 Android holds approximately 75% of the U.S. market
share
Android Development
 Written utilizing the Google Distance Matrix API
 Google Maps JavaScript API
 Google Maps Android API
 Android Bluetooth API
Power
 MirrorMate will operate on any standard 12V automotive charging
system.
 MirrorMate requires 3.3V for all components. This voltage will be
created by a simple power supply consisting of a commercially
available voltage regulator. (LM1085)
 Construction zone beacon requires 5V, it will use multiple LM1084
regulators to power the microcontroller and the large current
requirements of the emitters.
 Ensures constant voltage for emitters regardless of input voltage
Budget and Financing
 $243.43 spent so far
 Assistance expected from Microchip
 Assistance from family members
 Expected total budged to fall below $1500
