Throughout this project we learned:
BE and EE is the process of planning and understanding circumstances
EE has been around for a losing time and is used in practical positions, like buses, train systems, and even in hospitals in the form of CAT scans or MRI's
However, the use of personal circuiting and at home telemedicine remains relatively unexplored
It has become more popular through the coronavirus pandemic and as a result companies and individuals are more focused on individual circuits to aid the virtual medical process
While these progrets are still in the works there have been many positive impacts
Our project is relatively unique, the idea of a person covid sensor is not.
Our project reflects several of the ideas of telemedicne
THe use of a personalized sensor and using it to detects natural problems rather than a medical professional
In our project our biggest difficulty was wiring
By combining with group 7 we doubled our hands on work and while this was beneficial for completing all project parts we also had more people working at once
This made the project more complicated, the help was greatly beneficial but it made the wiring complicated
We got our project to work, a slight touch of the circuit would've knocked wires out of place, which could've caused the circuit to cease to work. This is because will everyone working on different parts the wiring became quite complicated and the wiring overlapped, making it impossible to dissect
We also had a switch problem where one of the switches had a hardware malfunction we spent a lot of time on this and more checking of all potential problems would have prevented this problem
On the research side of things, two different types of engineering were discussed and therefore our paper needed to focus on both
However, there was minimal information on the combination of the two which forced us to have to do the parts separately and bring them together in our projects section
This made research complicated and difficult, it also limited the number of applicable resources, because those that could not be connected had to be discarded leaving the research with only a few examples to work off of
Next time we would create our truth tables and do more planning before jumping right into building
We would also split up planning better this would remove a lot of the wiring issues faced and prevent the circuit from becoming so complicated
Lastly it would be beneficial if we didn't have team members with covid-19
