Morse Code to Text Translator

Previously, automated Morse Code translators were designed using a variety of programming languages, ranging from Machine Code on a Z80 Microprocessor to C++ on an Arduino.When looking at systems that are created on generalized processors, however, the question can be raised as to whether a non-generalized machine can be created to perform the task specifically, as this can lead to smaller form factors in design, faster operation speeds, and other such benefits.Using the fundamentals of Digital Logic Design, as well as some basic cryptography, several experimental circuits were constructed, and even the Morse Code was reconstructed to make this project work.In the end, most of the complications of the design stemmed from Morse Code itselfor, more specifically, how people in modern times use Morse Code.As a communication style, Morse Code has grown to become more of a shorthand than a full-scale code, and therefore could be far too complicated for any one device to decode accurately.As a training tool, however, the Morse Code to Text Translator (MCTT) will work well to help teach basic Morse Code structure, before setting its students free to learn more advanced Morse Code on their own.
