Week 8 - Change Power Supply.

-

         For this week, I am changing the power supply for the Arduino Uno. Before this, the Arduino Uno is using the power supply from my computer. So for the project to be proper, I want to change to supply to be from the wall socket. Before buying the AC to DC power supply adapter, I went to the Arduino website to find out the recommended power supply to be used for the Arduino Uno. 




        Based on the information from Arduino's website, the recommended input voltage for the Arduino Uno is 7V to 12V. And the limit is 20V. With that information, I ordered a 12V 2A, AC to DC power supply adapter from Shopee to be to power supply for the project.

                For this week, I designed the door structure for the project. The design of the door prototype is done by hand. The size of the door is smaller compared to normal doors as the door is only a prototype. The measurements of the components are taken and written in a note. The design and measurements are then taken to a local carpenter to cut the planks and woods to assemble the door. 2 door hinges are used so that the door can be opened and closed. A door handle is screwed to the door so that users can grab the handle to open the door. All components are screwed inside the door securely so that they do not move around and get damaged.

           For this week, I submitted the draft of the technical report and final year project report to Sir Izwan. The purpose of submitting the report is so that the supervisors can help the student check their report format and contents, and to help check the plagiarism percentage before submitting the real report. The percentage should not exceed 30% as told during the final year project briefing. The draft report of this project scored 14% after doing the plagiarism check.          I also did the presentation slides for the final year project presentation. The content of the slides was taken from the final year project report. The slides were arranged following the guideline given by the final year project coordinator.
