TOUCH SCREEN AND ZIGBEE BASED WIRELESS COMMUNICATION ASSISTANT FOR DUMB/ILLITERATES IN AIRLINES

The main aim of this project is to construct a user friendly multi-language communication system for illiterate/dumb people traveling by Airlines. As we have different languages in our world and its impossible for us to know all the languages. So, in this project we are building a device that helps them in expressing their needs with other language people (Air hostess) i.e. request them if we need anything in the flight like coffee, tea, drinks etc. In this project we use GLCD and Touch screen Technology to make it easy even to illiterates as it is also included with images, which indicates the needs. This even reduces the difficulty to airhostess in receiving the customers with different languages. Here for wireless communication purpose we use Zigbee technology.
ZigBee is a wireless technology developed as an open global standard to address the unique needs of low-cost, low-power, wireless sensor networks. Zigbee is the set of specs built around the IEEE 802.15.4 wireless protocol.
As Zigbee is the upcoming technology in wireless field, we had tried to demonstrate its way of functionality and various aspects like kinds, advantages and disadvantages using a small application of controlling the any kind of electronic devices and machines. The Zigbee technology is broadly adopted for bulk and fast data transmission over a dedicated channel. This project consists of Zigbee based system that transmits the wireless signals according to the input given by the user using touch screen. At the receiver (airhostess) end the information will be displayed on GLCD in English language. Here when user sends his need through touch screen, then micro controller transmits that information through Zigbee transmitter. The information received by the Zigbee receiver will be displayed on GLCD.
