Development of single station lightning detection system

The lightning strikes billion of times, kill many of people, and damages billion of assets per year. This problem may be properly managed by using a lightning detection system. In this project, the lightning detector circuit was designed by using PIC16F877A microcontroller. The purposes of this proj...
