Day: Monday (week 10)
Venue: Hostel


Today, I had workshop on Abstract Writing and Proposal Defense at TTL 1 by Dr. Imran Mohammad Sofi. In power point slide, there has a few content that have to put it. Here the content:

- Problem Statement (What is the problem you try to solve?)
- Objectives (Motivation and goals)
- What is my key idea/contribution
- How I am improving the current technology
- Methodology (what I have done, and what will do after this)

The purpose of a project  presentation are:
1) Give the assessor a sense of what idea/work is
2) Make them want to know more on project
3) Get feedback on your work

Day: Sunday (week 9)
Venue: Sri Gombak (friend's house)

Today, i go to Sri Gombak for studying together with senior because the FYP 2 project function same like my project. He do the parking system project using So, i take the advantages to learn more about software and hardware. firstly, i want to do comparison every each component that i was declared used before.


Hardware use

Hardware not use

Arduino 101

CPU : Intel Curie
Volt : 3.3V/7V-12V
CPU Speed : 32MHz
I/O Analog: 6/0
I/O Digital : 14/4
  • The function of Arduino 101 are same like Arduino UNO (connectors, available peripherals).
  • Have some addition features like BLE and Motion Sensor. 
  • Low power Intel microprocessor



Arduino UNO 

CPU : Atmega 328P
Volt : 5V/7V-12V
CPU Speed : 16MHz
I/O Analog: 6/0
I/O Digital : 14/6



 Micro Limit touch sensor

  • No limit touch
  • very high sensitivity touch

Ultrasonic sensor HC-SR04

  • Theoritical measuring distance : 2cm - 450m
  • Practical measuring distance : 2cm - 80cm
  • Accuracy : 3mm 



GSM Module 900A
  • secure connection (privacy)
  • lower cost consumption (just top-up credit)
  • service less
  • have connection when cut the power line (temporary)


Wifi Module ESP8266
  • Not really secure range (unlimited)
  • lower cost consumption (if used the server to become expensive to purchase )
  • service less
  • no connection when cut the power line



Software use

Software not use


 

  • Platform for IoS and Android to control arduino/Rasberry Pi over internet
  • Good graphic interface 
  • Faster create block less than 5 minute  
  • The software must synchronize with Arduino Software


  • Platform for Android to control arduino/Rasberry Pi only over internet
  • Good graphic interface
  • Take time to create the block and must arrange step-by-step
  • The software must synchronize with Arduino Software
 So, i do my research compare what types of component that suitable use in the project. As we know that have many way to find and use any component. But, to reach the target must do some research and comparison between features or advantages.

Day : Wednesday (week 8)
Venue : Student Lounge

Today have a workshop briefing with student at admin building TTL 1. Topic for today just briefing about  Methodology (Chapter 3) and Prelimenary Result (Chapter 4) and how to writing the proposal clearly.


This is an important component of the research/report since it informs the reader on the methods used to collect data and generate the findings reported. This chapter describes and explains the research methodology used in the study. In this chapter wherever applicable, sampling methods, research instruments and statistical methods are indicated in the chapter.


Next, the Preliminary Result for chapter 4 in the proposal of report FYP 1. For the better marks in the presentation, at least the students have one of the preliminary result such as from data collection of Arduino sensor, graph, comparison sensor with another sensor, survey of the components, the price of components and so on.

Venue: Male Hostel

This week do my research about journal has related with mailbox project. The minimum target must have 3 comparison between the good journals and what material or features that projects was used it. The references link that i used for my journal research is google scholar.


For my opinion, all journal project in above is very interesting and better to present it in future. But, nowadays people often comfortable using their smartphone. So, i create the similar project and just put the IoT system in smartphone to see people use properly and more interesting.
