Week 5 - Journal
Ideation
Tell us about your assignment's idea for this week. Why do you care about this idea? What inspired you? (Please include images or links to sources of inspiration)
Title of Media
lamp
I like lighting unit that reflect shapes on wall , it adds life and joyful to your room , so I want to make one with circle top with shapes on it .
Tool Chain
Which software/machines/materials did you use in the assignment? Why?
Tinker cad website to build the circuits
Title of Media
Cardboard -cutter
Title of Media
1 DC Motor
Mini breadboard
1 Led
1 ON/OFF Switch
1 DC Power Adapter 5V
1 DC Jack to terminal block converter
8 Jumper Wires (Male - Male)
4 Crocodile Wires
1 Screw Driver

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?
Title of Media
I made simulation on tinker cad website , then connect the battery ,dc motor led , push button to breadboard and push simulation and the led enlighten and the motor work also
this the link of tinker cad

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 connect the led to breadboard with jumpers in negative and positive pins.
then connected the DC motor to breadboard with two crocodile and jumpers to negative and positive pins.
connected the dc jack to breadboard with jumpers and the positive pin in the row of positive , the negative is far a Little bit from the negative row.
connected ON-OFF switch to breadboard , with corocdiel and jumpers , the positive pin in the row of negative , and the negative pin beside the negative of dc jack , so I connected all components in parallel
I choose V5 adapter because simulation show me that I didn't need more than V5 .
Title of Media
I cut the circle top and start to cut the shapes make tiny circle open for dc motor metal cylinder, then cut the box parts (sides,top,bottom)
Then I make hole in the centre of squared top for dc motor , connect crocodile wires to dc motor , make rectangle open on side of the cardboard box for ON/OFF Switch , make circle open on other side of the box for DC Jack to terminal block converter .
I connect the side of box with the bottom using glue gun , then put the DC Jack to terminal block converter connected with it's Jumper wire , put the whole circle in the box , make open for the led on the top and put the led .
I use tape on the back of top to set the lamp on it , after that I Plug the DC Power adapter in the pluguard power and the led and dc motor work successfully , and put the tape on the for corner to connect the top with the box .
I put the circle top and push the "on switch" button , it works the motor started to rotate the bottom and the led light , so the shapes appeared on wall .

Overcoming Challenges
What kinds of challenges or problems did you face while doing the assignment, tutorials, or exercises? How did you solve them? Did you ask for help from an instructor or peer? Please provide a link to the tutorial or article that you used to solve your problem (if any)
I connect the circle in series , and it is wrong for this project
so I connected it in parallel.
Final Project
How can you use the skills and knowledge that you've acquired this week in your final project?
Title of Media
Using tinker cad and simulate the circuit before doing it in real , it is very useful that you can try any thing in your project without any fear , get familiar with electricity component and build your design , try it , and it works make you feel confident that you can make the circuit of your final project without any problem .
WOW!
What is the coolest thing that you've learned this week? What is something that you will never forget from this week?
With Tarteel and Nariman we made simple Sumo RC Car called "hados 3leko", we fight with other teams in rounds , it was really funny , and feeling achievable to build this car in short time .
Title of Media
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.
we named our RC car with "hados 3leko" then when we play we unfortunately lose , we didn't win we can't ndos on any body . it is very funny ๐๐๐
