Int Dev Project Update #8: Full assembly
3D modelling
Here are all the parts to the final model. The above is a rendering of the whole model rotating. Note that the colour scheme will also reflect on the final model. I use black as the base as it is also the part that holds all of the motors which are black. This also means that I am Read more →
Int Dev Project Update #7: Printing and testing
I started the final model with the testing of the ultrasonic sensor as well as making a housing for it.
Next I sand all of the white printed parts with wet sanding. The fine particles of PLA when inhale causes harm to the lungs in the long term, thus, wet sanding is a safer protocol as compared to Read more →

Individual Presentation: Wearables
Zooming into the payments field, my presentation dives into the area of wearable payment devices. Going even more focused, I made an in-depth analysis of the Garmin HR Vivosmart with Ez-link contactless payment that was hardly known to anyone in Singapore.
Therefore I came up with this thesis:
Contactless payments wearables have not penetrated into the local market because their Read more →

Device of the Week #4 - ProPILOT Chair
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=uSAw6C-MnwU
ProPILOT Chair is a chair with weight sensor and motor install into it, making it part of the mechanics on how it would work. The primary function of ProPILOT Chair was to allowed people to stay seated while the chair rearranged the queue, eliminating any people with the intention of cutting the queue. The invention also made it easier for Read more →
Final Project Process #1
To get started, we decided to try and get the servo motors working through voice commands. The voice recognition is done through a app (BT Voice Control for Arduino) that links the voice commands through bluetooth and transmits this information to the Arduino, resulting in the respective movement in the server connected. We also purchased a component, HC-06 to allow Read more →
