Final Touch Up and Preparation For Industrial Day

At day before Industrial day,we have do last touch up and prepared everything to present and meet our assessor. Insya Allah, we try our best to make our assessor and supervisor satisfied what have we done along this year.Confident and the way you present with understand of your project will make the result become flying with a colourful.

 We always believe  "The price of success is hard work, dedication to the job at hand, and the determination that whether we win or lose, we have applied the best of ourselves to the task at hand. "

Below show our last touch up of our project,poster,brochure and slide:

Today we have done the best for our final year project,for tomorrow Allah has already done the rest.

Bismillaahirrohmaanirrohiim...

Hope we can do the best presentation tomorrow. Amin :)

Making Slide Presentation And Brochure

Today ,after class session , we have decided to do a slide and brochure.For slide presentation we have put some point that doesn't have at poster which are :

• problem statement
• Scope and limitation
• Circuit of our project that we create
• Image of our project
• Reference

Below show some of our view of slide :

Below show our brochure that we draft at publisher :

This view of our real brochure :

Poster Makeover

By this week, our progression is more towards making poster which is one of requirement for Industrial Day Presentation.According to standard format, each poster must contain description such as :

• Description
• Objective
• Methodology
• Result
• Circuit diagram
• Result

We started design our poster at library and continue at home.We discuss about each point of view or idea to create a professional look poster which contain all of the above points.Therefore we manage to finish up all the poster in one day although it took few hours for completion.

Actually we have  2 poster that we have complete it.First poster ,we already sent to our supervisor by email ,for him to make some correction that we have to change.They have some point that we have to do correction and add up more important point at our poster.

Below show the  first poster we create :

We need to some correction regarding what supervisor ask we to do and depend to standard format that we have miss .Then we upgrade our poster and add up all the miss point.

Below show our final poster :

Next day,we go to UIA to print our poster.The  price for our poster is RM 35.

P/S: Don't confuse with our project's title is same as Brailled Pill Organizer (timer/reminder)

In Making Casing

The second last process for making our project,this week we make a casing for brailled pill reminder.


Material and tools that we use to make our casing are:

First measure the length and width of the circuit.Then sketch on cardboard and cut according to size, measured before.Below show the step in making our casing.

 

Finally Casing is done :).Below show our casing of Brailled Pill Organiser:

View our circuit in the casing :

Final Testing In Lab

Today,after a class, we have go to lab for testing our project. We need to use multimeter, trainer kid and oscilloscope to see the timing diagram either the ic produce 2Hz or not.

Firstly, we calibrate the oscilloscope and trainer kid.Then we connect our project to the oscilloscope and trainer kid.  

Below show the picture while we do some calibration,connection,equipment that we use and testing :

For the final result that we get ,which come from the IC 4060 produce 2hz its not show clearly sometime the wave change and not constant. The signal is very small make the wave cannot  be seen clearly.Below show the result that we get :

The first result we get,it produce 2 Hz correctly

Conclusion,from the result we get, the circuit produce 2Hz but not constant,in the second and third testing, the result is not same like the first result we get.The result is not constant.Actually for the first try or demo ,the result is occur ,the LED flashing after 4 hours but for the second try the circuit cant be produce the output very well.,the circuit have some problem when we change output as buzzer. The circuit cant produce any output. The circuit have a little problem for the first try, the circuit cant produce the output as well as what we want.We already try our best to troubleshoot the circuit.We have discuss with our supervisor and the result is still the same. Our project is not function very well but we learn many things about what engineering to be :).This is our starting for our industrial next year.

Construct and Soldering component

Our next progression is construct and soldering of the component in PCB board.For information, we exchange the original output which is LED with a 5V buzzer.

Before that we already construct the circuit at breadboard and make a troubleshoot before we place and solder at the PCB board.Below show the picture of our construction at breadboard.

Circuit at breadboard

After that we want to transfer the component to PCB Board and directly soldering the component.

Below show the tools that we need for our construction and soldering

Our Tools Box

Solder ion

Solder 

Sucker

Multimeter

Long Nose And Cutter

Here we show our picture during construction and soldering:

Finally is done the construction and soldering steps. :)

See the next entry for next progression :).
