Electrical engineering

Handheld development:

Our handheld contains an Arduino Uno Rev3 microcontroler which is connected to a HC-05 bluetooth module.Two LEDs are connected over 100 ohm resistances to digital ports on the Arduino Uno. One of the LEDs emitts radiation with a wavelength of 450 nm permanently during the detection process. The other LED emmits light of a wavelength at 575 nm but works as a photo diode. Sensing details are explained below.


You can find our arduino code, open soure on the folowing site: Mycotoxin Handheld Arduino code







LED Sensing:

Light emitting diodes are robust, low-cost, and energy efficient. LEDs cover an increasingly broad spectral range from UV to near infrared. LEDs can be both light emitters and detectors. For example, a LED that emits greenish-yellow light at the peak wavelength of about 555 nm detects green light at the peak wavelength of about 525 nm and over the spectral width of 50 nm. Almost every LED is capable to detect a relatively narrow band of wavelengths, with different sensitivity. When a LED is subjected to light, they generate a backwards biased current proportional to the light striking the diode, typical about 50pA. A precise measurement of the LED photocurrent is possible, using inherent capacitance of diode itself (typically picoFarads) and microcontroller I/O ports with configurable internal pull-ups states and built-in digital timer-counter.

Bluetooth communication:

For our handheld we use a HC-05 module from Frima LC Technology. This module is easy to connect with Arduino boards and, additionally, is low priced. The HC-05 module enables sending and receiving data from and to other devices via bluetooth. Bluetooth
