Project 28: S.A.D.I.E. (Smart Lab Monitor)

Sponsor: NCSU

Mentor(s):

Arpad Voros aavoros@ncsu.edu

Hunter G. Cook hgcook@ncsu.edu

Project Background and Need:

Troxler lab supports many students throughout the semester. Students would benefit from ease of knowing when events are occurring and generally increased lab aesthetic. The vision for the project is to help students and collect data from the lab to increase the usefulness of this monitor.

Problem Description/requirements (List of high-level functionality you expect to see in the end product):

Requirements

- 4 Monitor display (at the least a calendar, clock, and announcement panel that can scroll around the circular display. It must interface with the university billboard application)

- Environmentally efficient. The display must not stay on 24/7, but will be on for students in the lab, and busy times when people may be viewing the lab).

- Should collect data from the lab to help the previous requirement. Such as knowing when students are in the lab and perhaps more complicated data about where students are in the lab)

- The size must not be intrusive enough to hinder the work of students in the lab.

Required Skills / Desired Competencies (in order of importance):

• Embedded Hardware & Programming

• Programming experience

• Sensor interface and programming

• Printed Circuit Board Design and Layout
