 Background  Problem Definition  Proposed Solution  Design Objectives  Implementation and Testing  Budget Estimate  Project Timeline

 Project54  Integrates police devices into one interface 1.In-cruiser computer 2.Controller Area Network (CAN) 3.Devices

 System Benefits  Access to motor vehicle and license records  Individual device control  Voice activated commands

 System operation is in-car only  Need for out-of-car operation  Photos  License scanning and records  Device Operation  Out-of-car operation requires wireless connectivity

 Microcontroller-based interface  Receives wireless data from Personal Digital Assistant (PDA)  Transfers wireless data to Project54 Device Network  Wireless communication between PDA and Project54 device network

 Design two interfaces  Wireless ▪ Two connections to receive wireless data ▪ Wi-Fi 1.Long range wireless connections ▪ Bluetooth 1.Short range wireless connections  Wired ▪ RS232 Serial 1.Transmit data from MCU to Project54 device network
