Abstract :
Generally electric blankets are being used in cold weather, but they may not give the user a stable temperature and safety. Therefore our fuzzy control system is implemented by an MCU, a control circuit, sensors and a software module to solve the problems of stability and safety. With fast response and stability, the fuzzy control system immediately selects automatically a suitable heating method to avoid danger.
