Week #6 - Journal

Ideation

Tell us about your assignment's idea for this week. Why do you care about this idea? What were you inspired by?

I inspired this idea from fire alarm system that is sensing any fire or smoke in specific area and launches alarm

Tool Chain

Which software/machines/materials did you use this week? Why?

I used this week tinkercad to design the circuit and making sure working of it after that installing the physical components together to be like circuit that we design it

also used fritzing program to draw the schematic diagram of the electrical circuit that I made

And use Arduino software to upload the code to Arduino Uno

The materials I used this week is :

1- Buzzer

2- Temperature sensor (LM35)

3- Breadboard

4- Jumpers

5- Arduino Uno

Design Process

Explain the design process of your assignment. How did you use the tool/software to design and/or simulate your assignment?

switch is off

now switch are on

I search online for some projects but I choose to make one by myself first I design the circuit on sheet after that I drew the circuit on tinkercad and write the code and I use (if - else) condition to launch the buzzer sound if the temperature sensor read higher than 30 C degree and stop the alarm if the temperature sensor read less than 30 C degree than I tested the circuit to make sure that work next I started to making physical hardware circuit as i drew
I used fritzing program to draw the schematic diagram of the circuit
the video of the circuit

Fabrication/Implementation Process

Explain the fabrication/implementation process of your assignment. How did you use the machine/tool to manufacture or implement the design of your assignment?

After I finished testing the circuit on tinkercad I start to installing the physical components together by putting LM35 and wire it to (Gnd,5V,A1) pins on Arduino and wire the buzzer to (Gnd,9) pins also on Arduino by breadboard and download the code from tinkercad then upload it to Arduino uno by using the Arduino software
And it worked wel

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 peer ask me for some thoughts for the assessment and I help him

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 project?

First, I ask my peers if they didn't have the answer I go to the instructor
I face some problems in programming code but I search online for solutions and I solve it
You should watch some videos to clarify the vision further.

Final Project

How can you use the skills and knowledge that you've acquired this week in your final project?

The benefits from this week videos is to programming Arduino and how to use it and this sure will help me in the 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?

I think the most interesting thing this week and week 4 is tinkercad and plus this week Arduino because it's one of the easiest and most fun programming kit

Weekly Digest [OPTIONAL]

Tell us about any other cool things that you've made this week: Pre-activity, examples, exercises, or any mini-projects.
