We are trying to recreate the same impact as one would do when tapping a back, which on average is about 9 pounds of force. As for the frequency, we aim to have multiple settings in terms of speeds to be able to customize the therapy depending on the infant.
Our main focus when creating the device was to build something that would be safe, efficient and effective specifically for infants.
We plan to have our product impact a force plate to measure the output force it creates to ensure it is within the range of force we are aiming for.
Arduino software was written in Java, C++, and C language.
The else and else-if both are used after specifying the if statement. It allows multiple conditions to be grouped. If else the if-else condition includes if () statement and else () statement. The condition in the else statement is executed if the result of the If () statement is false. In our project, we want our solenoid to always be oscillating, if by any chance the solenoid were to stop, the if-else statement reactivates the solenoid.
