Title : Collecting Data and Prototype testing
Date : 13 Sept 2019

Objectives :
Running tests for every component in every aspect to make sure that the prototype functioning well in a real time situation.

Contents :
Several tests have been done to imitate the real time situation to analyse the compatibility of this prototype to the user. The test also included how the message is send to the rescue team via SMS  using a google link that can be directed to the Google Map Application.

#1 Distance Warning Alert
The Ultrasonic Sensor helps the person who drives the vehicle knows the distance between the vehicle and object in front. The sensor will be triggered if the distance is less than 5 cm and starts to give a warning to the driver about the distance.




#2 Speed Warning Alert
In this project, the purpose of IR sensor can be manipulated to read the speed of a moving object. The sensor is placed behind of a vehicle tire so it can detect the revolution speed of the tire. The sensor will detect the revolution per minute of the vehicle tire and collect the information that can be transform into kmh unit. If the driver droves higher than 180 kmh, the system will detect as an over speeding and then will give a warning to the driver.



#3 Impact Warning Alert
This sensor is placed at the front of the vehicle as Figure 4.15 to detect any impact towards the front of the vehicle. The impact can be adjusted to the lowest touch or hard object impact. The settings are set to the mild impact because if the setting is to low the system might be giving a false alert because it is too sensitive. 



#3 Message Notification Alert
For the output of this system, there are GPS and GSM module that being used to send the emergency alert message to the rescue team. The GPS module is codded  to send the coordinate of the vehicle in the form of google link. This is to make the tracking and locating easier for the rescue team. 


 For the GSM module, the alert message is compact with the information of the driver’s name, the type and number plate of the car and the location of the accident occur. Based on the location below, the emrgency is triggered at UniKL BMI, Gombak.

Conclusions :
As for conclusion, the purposed of doing these testing are to make sure all of the sensors are working properly and precisely according to the situation. During this phase, some adjustable can be changed easily before completing it fully on the prototype. The testing that are taken seriously are the sensors that will collect the information for the vehicle.

Objective :
Stating the knowledge that was received during the workshop and explain how can the knowledge be applied. On the other hand, give a full view about the last design of the prototype.

Contents :
For this week, I attend a Pitching Technique briefing for FYP 2. In this workshop, the coordinators explain about the technique on presentation day. The explanation including on how to do the presentation in front of the assessor. I learnt some new tricks to tackle the assessor which are explain briefly and thoroughly on my project. Each data that were obtained need to be explained one clearly so assessor can understand the whole process of the project. 

During this week, the final design of the prototype is completed. I am very grateful because I was able to finished the prototype on time. The system wiring has been modified completely instead of using breadboard, I am soldering the connectors onto a PCB board to make the interior looks neat. Below are the full view of my project prototype :
The whole body frame for the prototype is using ply wood to increase the durability.

The interior wiring system for this project.

After completing the full design, its time to test out the functionality of each components. Can this prototype achieve its goal ? ( Goal : A system that will gives warning to the driver when it receives an abnormal data and gives sufficient information to a nearby rescue team when accident occurs )

Conclusions :
In conclusion, the pitching workshop that were held by the coordinators really help me a lot in boosting up my energy and confidence to present about my project. Furthermore, some improvement/new features can be applied to my prototype such as adding a button features that act as an emergency button or a button feature that need to be pressed to start the vehicle engine. Researches need to be done for adding these type of features.


WEEK 6 (FYP 2)

Title : Simulation Testing for each of the component
Date : 30 August 2019

Objective :
To ensure all of the components works perfectly when combine into a system.

Contents :
As stated in week 4, a major issue occur from GSM SIM800L where the signal connectivity is very weak and can distract the whole system to be working perfectly thus GSM SIM900A is being used to substitute the old GSM module.

Throughout the week, many simulation testing and coding have been done to test out the functionality of each component. The testing included distance monitoring, speed monitoring and impact monitoring.

#1 Distance Monitoring
The sensor will be triggered if the distance between the vehicle and object in front is less than 5 cm. It will automatically detects and send warning alert to the driver.

#2 Speed Monitoring
The sensor will be triggered if the speed of the vehicle is more than 180 kmh. It will automatically detects and send warning alert to the driver.

#3 Impact Monitoring
The sensor will be triggered if it detects a certain amount of shock received from the front of the car. It will automatically detects and send warning alert to the driver.

#4 Accident Detection Monitoring
An accident will be justify by the system if all of the sensors are triggered. The distance must <5 cm, the speed must decrease rapidly or = 0 kmh and an impact is detected at the front of the car.

If an accident happen the system will automatically alarm the GPS to track the last coordinate of the vehicle and the location will be sent through GSM via SMS to the rescue team.

Conclusion :
In summary, based on the testing that had been done, the result of all the testings were quite successful but further improvement need to be done such as the coordinate can be send in the form of google link to make job easier for the rescue team by just tapping a link that can be used with Google Map.

Title : Prototype Pre-assembly
Date : 17 August 2019

Objective :
Give a clearer view of how the final prototype will be assemble. The purpose of doing this phase is to ensure that the expenses can be save if anything bad happen.

Contents :
The final prototype design should use a wood planks or acrylic perspex as the main body frame. Instead of using that, in this phase I use a cardboard as the main body frame for my project. Below are the prototype using cardboard body frame :


All of the components are placed according to their place and ready to be tested one by one. The objectives for this phase are :
  • Testing the distance monitoring system using Ultrasonic Sensor
  • Testing the speed monitoring system using IR Sensor
  • Testing the impact monitoring system using Vibration Sensor
  • Testing the signal connectivity for GSM SIM800L (can receive signal and send SMS)
  • Testing signal connectivity for GPS Neo-6M (give accurate coordinate)


Conclusion :
In conclusion, all of the components work well individually but when it combine together as a system, some issues need to be fix. One of the main problem is the GSM because the signal connectivity is very weak even at an open space. The GSM need to be changed to other model that can boost up the signal which is GSM SIM900A.

Title : Draft Report Submission & Components Survey
Date : 11 June 2019

Objectives :
Comparing the prices of each components from different stores or marketplaces to ensure that the minimal price for this project can be achieved.

Contents :
During week 16 through week 17, different type of stores that sells electronics components are being survey. One of the easiest way that I used to compared the price is by using Google (Shopee, Lazada, etc). The price that i found online is set as the base price before I continue searching through other stores.

Furthermore, at the last week of this semester, the FYP report progress has been submitted to my supervisor Dr. Mohd Zaki Bin Ayob to be checked before proceeding with the prototype. 

Conclusions :
As for conclusion, the purpose of doing online research about the components price is that the online price usually cheaper than the price buying directly at stores. The consequences is that the delivery might be too long or the component that is received might not be working well.

Title : Summary for the FYP1 Presentation
Date : 17 May 2019

Objectives :
Explains about the outline of the output from my FYP1 presentation,

Content :
1. ADDITIONAL RESEARCH
a. Why is high-end car have this king of car safety technology :
  • High-end car such as Mercedes, Tesla etc. have their own rescue team so the user does not have to rely on the government rescue team.
  • Most of high-end car user are rich/important people, so they are their target customer to buy this technology compare to regular people.
  • The technology/system itself is not expensive (like my expected cost) but the reason why it can get expensive is because of the additional fees. For example, fees for their own rescue team, insurance covered etc.

b. Who do this project refer to call if an accident happen :
  • My target for this project is to imply the scene of an accident on a highway. The rescue team that I am targeting is the hotline that are registered for that highway.


2. PROJECT REDESIGN/IMPROVEMENT
For my project, it has 2 conditions where the first one is where the system will give a warning to the driver if it detects an unusual behaviour of driving and the second one where the system will call/send alert message to nearby rescue team when it detects an accident. There are a few things that needs to be improvised:

First Improvement
Instead of giving warning to the driver when it detects an unusual behaviour (e.g. Speeding), the system itself will also decrease the vehicle speed gradually or limit the speed of the vehicle

Second Improvement
When the system detects an accident and send alert message to the rescue team, how does the driver know the rescue team is on its way? So, I want to improve that there is a two-way communication between the driver and the rescue team. The team will send a respond that will notify the driver that the alert message has been received.

Conclusions :
For overall, all of the suggestion and recommendation from my assessor have had help me to improve more for my project. I really appreciate their help and will try to achieve some of their reccomendations.

The mock presentation went good and it gives me the exposure and ways to improve more about my presentation. There are a lot Q&A between me and my supervisor about this proposal defense day. There are some flaws in my presentation that needs to be improved but overall everything is in pace.

Preliminary Result
I have done some survey to test the marketability of this product. A set of questionnaires was shared to the community of my housing area and my targeted customer is a family person. This are some of the survey results.




From the survey that i have done, most of my customer doesn't really know the existing of this product in the market but eventually the realize the importance of this safety system to them. Thus, this is a big step for me to continue this project and try to make it happen and be the one that can contribute to the society.
Conclusions :
After a hectic week preparing my presentation, i think i am well prepared now with the help of my supervisor and friends. The result from the survey is encouraging enough for me to present my project to the assessor.

For this meeting, Dr Imran has give some further explanation and guide the student for the proposal report. He also explained in details about the basic idea and expectation writing for every chapter :

METHODOLOGY (Chapter 3)
  • In this chapter, it describes the methods and techniques used for the project. It can be explain about the block diagram, the main components used and the flowchart of the project. Must be explained in details so can gives a brief information to the readers.

PRELIMINARY RESULT (Chapter 4)
  • For fyp1, the Chapter 4 has been changed from Results and Discussion to Preliminary Result because for the first semester the project progress is not exceeding 30% yet.
  • In this chapter we can explain about the simulations that we have done or other results that we can analyse for the project and each result must be discussed as it will highlight the main findings, implications and significance of the project

ABSTRACT WRITING
  • It is the summary of the whole report that tells the readers about the function, problem statements, method used, results and conclusion of my project. This part must be written after i have finished the report. Since it is the summary to the of the whole report that i have done, i think it should be easy to write 

Conclusions :
To summarize for this week, for the methodology part it can be done easily but for the preliminary result part, i think i will try to make a market survey for my project. This is because my project is a product-based project so a market survey could be a nice approach for my project.

WEEK 8 (FYP 1)

Written by   on   in  
Title : Drafts on Introduction of the Project (Chapter 1)
Date : 30 March 2019

Objectives :
Produce a basic concept for my project. To start a project, i must strengthen the core idea of this project and get the basic knowledge about why i want to do this project and how can it be implemented.
  
Contents :
For chapter 1, I has to find the purpose of building/making this project and what are the problems in the real world that can support my statements.

Aim of the Project
To develop a system that will gives warning to the driver when it receives an abnormal data and gives sufficient information to a nearby rescue team when accident occurs

Problem Statements
- Number of accidents have been increased by years and the total deaths caused by it are still on a critical level.
- It takes time for the rescue team to know about the accidents. Because of this situation the rescue team will be arriving late at the scene that can caused the accident victim to die.
Objectives
Minimize accidents' response time for the rescue team to reach the accident scene in order to reduce number of human death due to rad accidents.

Scope of the Project
This project is to establish a method for the rescue team to attend an accident and the place of incident quickly

Limitations of the Project
This project can be limited due to signal connectivity

Conclusions :
I hope based on the drafts that i have made for my chapter 1 people can understand more about the overview of my project. Hopefully my objectives of this project can be achieved. Amin.

WEEK 7 (FYP 1)

Title : Workshop on Introduction & Literature Review Writing (3rd meeting)
Date : 24 March 2019

Objectives :
Explains briefly or summary about the third meeting for fyp1 students that was held on 20/3/2019 and the purpose of the workshop is to give us full exposure in how to explain our project/product to other people so they can easily understand the overall project and how to do some researches for the project chosen.

Contents :
For this meeting, Dr Imran has give some further explanation and guide the student for the proposal report. He also explained in details about the sub topic that must be put together inside every chapter which are :

INTRODUCTION (Chapter 1)
1.1 Project Background
1.2 Problem Statement
1.3 Objectives of the Project
1.4 Significance of the Project
1.5 Scope and Limitations of the Project
1.6 Chapter Summary

LITERATURE REVIEW (Chapter 2)
2.1 Introduction
2.2 Project Overview
2.3  Previous Research Problems
2.4 Precious Methods/Works
2.5 Conclusion/Recommendations
2.6 Chapter Summary

Conclusions :
In this week i have view all the list of details for every chapters and decided to start focusing on producing chapter 1. It is the main chapter that generally introduces the problem statement and indicates the importance and validity of my project.

WEEK 6 (FYP 1)

Written by   on   in  
Title : Research on the previous methods/experiments (Literature Review)
Date : 16 March 2019

Objectives :
To ensure I have a thorough understanding of the project by relating with previous methods as references. Describe the relationship of each work to the others and try to identify new ways to give a fresh ideas to my project.

Contents :
Starting this week, i try to search and read all the previous studies that have been done on this particular topic which is Vehicle Accident Detection System and also studies the Transport Statistics Malaysis that can strengthen my problem statement. I will attach the link of some of my researches below :


Basically, the aim of this project is to develop a safety-system to a vehicle that can detect an accident and report immediately to the nearest medical center or rescue team. A project that uses the usage of sensors in order to gain data and the microcontroller will make the decision based on the data received.

From the research that i have made, i can summarize that most of the methods work when the car is already have had an accident but there are a few methods that gives a warning to the driver if the system detects an unusual behavior driving from the driver. This function is very useful as it can be used as prevention for accident from happening.

Conclusions :
In overall, after making some researches, i think it is the best way to combine some of the researches method into a new method. Some safety features may not be useful and some might be useful so i have to do some critical thinking to make this project applicable to all sorts of situations.
