Week#8- Journal
Ideation
This week's assignment idea was to Communicate wirelessly with a Smart Circuit via a Graphical User Interface (GUI) on your phone or PC.
I researched Arduino projects and simple circuits
It is not possible to choose a circuit suitable for the standards and insert the bluetooth module with it
I researched Arduino projects and simple circuits
It is not possible to choose a circuit suitable for the standards and insert the bluetooth module with it
My project was inspired by the Arduino Motivate website and I made some modifications and additions to it
So I made the idea of my project is to enter a specific number through the Arduino Blue Control application, and this number appears on the Seven Segment and each number is accompanied by a certain tone from the buzzer.
Tool Chain
Which software/machines/materials did you use in the assignment? Why?
materials
bluetooth module
Bread board
Seven segment
Buzzer
Resestor 1k
Design/Preparation Process
Explain the design and/or preparation process of your assignment. How did you use the tool or software to design and/or prepare your assignment before fabrication/implementation?
The idea of the project is a seven-segment and a buzzer
They are controlled through the mobile via bluetooth module
So that when you enter a specific number through the mobile, the number will appear on the swords, and it will be accompanied by its own tone from the buzzer.
-First, I built the circuit on the Fritzing website
_Then I wrote the code on the Arduino
Then I downloaded the Android BlueControl app.
Development/Implementation Process
Explain the development/implementation process of your assignment. How did you use the machine/tool to manufacture or implement the design of your assignment?
I built the circuit and connected the Arduino to the computer to upload the code to it
Then I downloaded the Arduino bluecontrol application on the mobile and through the bluetooth I made a connection between the mobile and the Bluetooth module
Then I opened the application and contacted HC-05
Then I opened the number pad to enter the numbers

Community of Learning
Did you ask for feedback? What are the ideas that others have contributed or suggested? What was someone else’s idea that you built upon? How did you help your peers? How did your peers help you?
My friend Menna Yousry is the one who suggested the idea of the project to me. I told her that I would like to make a project and use the two swords, and I control it through the mobile, and she is the one who bribed me to do this idea and to employ them together in this way.
Overcoming Challenges
When you got stuck, what/who did you turn to? At what point did you have to pause to research or learn more before moving on? What are some mistakes, pitfalls, or challenges that others can avoid if they were doing this assignment?
I have always designed my circuits on Tinker CAD and I was more familiar with him, but this was the first time I used Fritzing, as I searched a lot on the Bluetooth module on Tinker CAD and did not find it, so I did a search and downloaded Fritzing.
Final Project
WOW!
What is the coolest thing that you've learned this week? What is something that you will never forget from this week?
The coolest thing was the competition held during the session on Saturday
Where they were divided into groups and we made a robotic arm
For use it in playing and catching fish wich designed using a laser cutter machine.
Weekly Digest [OPTIONAL]
Tell us about any other cool things that you've made this week: in the Hands-on activity, tutorial examples, exercises, or any other cool mini-project that you tried out aside from the assignment.
