hi
how i can connect sensors to pic (any sensor) ?
can i connect sensor to pic wirelessly? if yes how?
how i can send signal from sensor to camera to capture an image?
please help me step by step
thanks....

How we can tell you without knowing your scheme.

There are several sensors and each have differernt types of inteface.
Wht specific sensor you are using,which controller you are using

yes u can connect sensor with microcontroller and then then send data wirelessly through wireless modules.
 

yes ,i talk about the schema in general which
i have a sensor , camera ,pic , pc and mobile
so if we talk about motion sensor , when motion occurred the sensor sense the event and tell camera by any way then camera take a picture .
the picture send to pic or pc wireless
then pc send an image to mobile serially
so i need to help me step by step
how i can choose sensor and how connect with camera .
i need piece of idea
thank so much
 

I assume you know how to make an application in PIC to integrate the required software module to support the corresponding hardware

1) You can interface an IR sensor to detect motion simply. Select the sensor and look through its data sheet about how to interface it with a microcontroller.
2) Camera Sensors usually support an I2C bus interface so you can controller the register interface through that. For data, it is usually a 10-bit parallel output. Check the sensor datasheet for your selected sensor and you'll be good.
3) It will be your firmware in PIC that will monitor for interrupt from IR sensor and from there it will signal appropriately the Camera controller tasks to take the picutre.
4) If you take high quality or many pictures, you'll need to attach some kind of storage device (e.g. SDcard) with PIC as well. You may also get away with RAM only depending upon your application requirements. OR you can combine it with step 5)
5) You can use USB to send image from the PIC to PC. If this is the case you can avoid storing the picture on-board and can send it to PC directly. Your PC application would have to be running and commanding to get the photo then.
6) On the PC side you'll need to write the driver for your USB device (i.e. PIC that controls sensors).
7) Once the picture is in PC, there are many ways to send it to mobile (off course depending upon what is supported by mobile). If mobile supports WLAN, then that would be easy to use.

This may also help as the starting point

thanks sooo much
can i take your mail to ask you another question
thaaaaaanks
 

This forum also has a PM button. That is equivalent to mail.

But I don't want to set your expectations too high. You can send a PM I don't often get time to visit this forum.
