Conventionally there was printed notice board. Which was used to display any sort of the information but they were not much useful as it was more difficult to change the information periodically and there was a lot of paper and ink wastage to. Then came electronic notice boards which used LEDs, with a particular combination to display any sort of information. This project aims at developing a GSM BASED MESSAGE DISPLAY that will design such a board which will be displaying a scrolling message which is send to the board via SMS. It will require a specified user to send a message to the GSM modem connected to the microcontroller in a pre-defined format. After receiving this message the microcontroller will display the Message on the display and start it scrolling on the board. For example this display can be taken as a NOTICE BOARD for a school/College on which the information can be updated by simply sending a SMS via a mobile phone to the GSM Modem connected with the microcontroller. The message display is made up of array of latches to glow display the string of characters to be displayed on that display. The line driver circuit has been used to interface the GSM Modem with the microcontroller to make their voltage levels compatible to each other.

Embedded System using 8051 Microcontroller
Embedded system is basically a combination of hardware with software. Embedded system basically is a computer system that is designed to pull off a few or one specific function, more often than not in real-time computing constraints. An embedded system is called an embedded system because it is embedded in or is a part of much complex and complete device that comprises hardware, moveable and mechanical parts. They are basically microcontroller to work with ‘applications as a resulted output. A microcontroller is a device with its own memory (RAM, ROM) and many more features added to it such as UART, Interupts and Timer etc, which make it superior to the microprocessors.

Advance Embedded System
Embedded system is basically a combination of hardware with software. An embedded system basically is a computer system that is designed to pull off a few or one specific function, more often than not in real-time computing constraints. Advance version of combo of two most vetern embedded systems i.e. PIC and 8051 together. They both have various advantages. The PIC is a very general purpose microcontroller with ADC, counter, Built in oscillator with selectable speeds Wide range of interfaces including SPI, USB, USART, AD, programmable comparators, PWM has been used with the advantages of the 8-bit 8051 microcontroller
