14th week ( 23 April 2012 - 27 April 2012 )

Tittle of activity :
  • Summit chapter 1,2,3 and progress report

Introduction
The purpose of this project is to research about basically functioning to create new system to reduce accidents that occur during reversing car. The main focus of this project is for the owner of the vehicle especially if the driver is a disable people, they need to install this system to their car. This progress report discusses the progress I have made from Jan 16 – April 27, 2012.

Work Completed from Jan 16 – April 27, 2012
During this period the progress of the project complete in searching information. Much information was get during research using internet and journal. Information about component will be used for this project such as ultrasonic sensor, LCD Display, PIC16F877A, reverse camera system and how the camera will connect to personal computer. The entire component used for this project. From the research found many type of component with same function but different futures and advantages and disadvantages. Beside that the progress for this part is select the PIC will used for this project.
The reason chose the PIC:
        i.            Easily understood by humans.
      ii.            Closer to human language.
    iii.            More simple command and not longer.
During this semester also select the design and shape will be used for this implementation of reverse sensor in vehicle. Must do the best selected of the component to make sure the project will follow the target and archive the objective.

Work to be completed by November 2012
Next, I have to finish my research on the components that will use for this project. This completed on March 2011. For the next step, I have to find all the components needed, start learn about microcontroller language or command so it’s become easy for I’m to start write program and complete the project by applying all the research that I have done before. I also need to finish up my final report for this project but it will only be a few paragraphs due to the lack of information available. I will then write the conclusion and management implications for the final paper. The entire project should be completed by the first week of October 2012.

Problems Encountered

While doing this project research, the first problem that occurs is choosing the suitable sensor for this project, at the same time I also face a problem how to place the camera at the suitable place and it cannot be seen and secure from been stolen. Second problem, is how to write the program. I need someone to teach me about microcontroller, language program and how to re-program with use PIC 16F877A and also refer some book to learns. However the project is still on schedule and will proceed as how the project was planned.


Conclusion

My research project is on schedule and I should encounter no problems finishing it by October 2012. If there is any problem or comment regarding on my final year project, please respond me at hamidahza2509@gmail.com.
