Week 7 - Review of Arduino 1.0.exe Part2

Week 7 : 28th - 3th Nov

Objective:

1. Review the example of Arduino.exe.
2. Understanding every coding of the examples

Contents:

The picture show that the led blinking. The coding of blinking have been download to my Arduino Uno board. 

To download any coding to Arduino Controller, here the steps that have to folow

1.Compile

 Click the √ symbol. Then it will compiling the coding and check whether the code. Any error of the code will be display at the black screen.

When the compiling finish, it will display as the picture above.

2. Download

To download the coding, click the (->) symbol. Wait for the device to downloading. After the process finish, it will display as picture below. 

Now the coding have been download to the Arduino Uno board. 

Week 6 - Review of Arduino 1.0.exe Part1

Week 6 : 21th - 27th Oct

Objective:

1. Review the example of Arduino.exe.
2. Understanding every coding of the examples.

Contents:

1. Try to understanding the basics and simple examples of the Arduino coding.
2. Here is the simple Blink's coding from the example of the Arduino.

From the example of coding, we can see every command have their own comment. With that comment after the command, we can understand how the coding's flow to make the blinking led. 

Week 5 - Arduino Uno's Software Programming

Week 5 : 7th - 13th Oct

Objective:

1. Reviews of the Arduino Uno's Software Programming
2. Studying and understanding the basic examples of the Arduino coding. 

Contents:

The programing of the Arduino can be download here http://www.arduino.cc/. The software is freeware.

The Arduino 1.0.exe have more example that can be view. 

Week 4 - Arduino Uno Overview

Week 4 : 30th - 6th Oct

Objective:

1. Understand about the Arduino Uno Controller.
2. Investigate about the pin out of the Arduino Uno Controller.
3. Recognise the input and output pin of the Arduino Uno board.

Content:

From the picture above are the pin-out of the Arduino Uno that i used for the main controller of my Final Year Project. The supply for the controller is around 7-12V DC. The board have 28 pin-out. All the pin-out for the board we can see at the picture above 

Week 3 - Arduino Uno

Week 3 : 23rd - 29th July

Objective:

1. Get the Arduino Uno controller.
2. Overview the Arduino Uno controller.

Content:

1. Get information from student Medical Electronics that Sir Hisyam from Medical Section have provided the Arduino Controller.
2. Met Sir Hisyam and asked him if he willing sell the remained Arduino Board. With the great offered from him, the Arduino Board finally gained. 

Week 2 - Submission of the Project's Title

Week 2 : 17th - 22nd Sept

Objective:

1. Confirm the title before the due date 28th July.
2. Get more information about Arduino Uno controller.

Content:

1. Discussed with Supervisor about the title. The Obstacle Avoiding Robot by using Arduino controller was selected as the title of the project.
2. Madam Julie gave simple briefing about the Arduino Uno controller. We were discussed the project's description.

The project's Idea:

1. Use Arduino Uno as the main controller. Adding features that can make the project more to commercial. 
2. The idea that given for the Avoiding Robot is vacuum cleaner. The vacuum cleaner can clean the whole place by itself. Anything that block against it, it will avoid by itself and continue to clean.

Week 1 - Introduction

Week 1 : 9th - 15th September

Objective:

1. Briefing about the FYP
2. Find the Supervisor

Content:

1. Planning the title of the FYP. Research about the project by surfing and get information from friends.
2. Seeking the suitable Supervisor. Met Madam Julie and convince she about the ideas.
3. Discussed the title with the Supervisor. Get advised from Madam Julie by using Arduino Uno as the controller of the project.

Result

From this activity, students know what they should do to achieve the main objective of final year project before they go through to the next procedures which is to prepare log book/blog, presentation and final report.

Conclusion

With the briefing, student will start planning for the Final Year Project. Otherwise, student get highlighted some of important date to completed all the task in perfectly.
