Remote controllable electronic signboard

Abstract

In this study, an embedded system has been developed to provide remote control of dot matrix signboards widely used nowadays. With this developed system, it is possible to control and use one or more signboards anywhere. The developed electronic signboard can be in the desired dimensions by connecting the unit modules in many different forms thanks to the electronic circuit realized for the dot matrix display. The electronic circuit of the unit modules can be controlled with Raspberry pi and Tinker mini computers. In addition, three different application softwares (desktop, mobile and web) have been developed to control the electronic signboard by both desktop computer and mobile devices with Android or IOS operating systems. The system is executed by realizing the prototype.
