Week 12 (Final Semester)

Title: Final test

Objective:

• To make sure all the circuit running as plan
• To make sure the hardware suitable for the project
• To prepared for the viva

Content:

On this week task, the project will be tested thoroughly. After connecting all the wiring at the circuit and connect all the battery the testing begin. First switch on the circuit at the remote control car, which is the receiver circuit. The orange led at the remote control car will be turn on to indicate the receiver is on. Then switch on the transmitter circuit inside the casing, the orange led turn on to indicate the transmitter is on. When the transmitter circuit is on, the door lock of the project automatically goes up. Which means, the car is unlock. It because the transmitter is on the range of receiver can detect, which is about 5 meters. When the transmitter is taken away from the receiver, the door lock is automatically locked. This means that the circuit and the door lock mechanism works fine

The second phase of the final testing is to test the car light (white led) and the engine (motor). The light and the motor has its own switch. When the transmitter is on the range, switch on the switch of motor and the light, and then bring the transmitter outside the range. The motor and the light is automatically switch off when that happen. This prove that the project is successfully worked

Analysis:

There are slight problem with the project where there is no more space for the battery to fit in the car, so for the solution, the battery will be outside when the demonstration. the switch also cannot attach at the car because the casing of the is quite soft. The switch will be hanging outside the car. And also, when the motor running, the tire of the car also running, so, something must be put under the back of the car to avoid the car from moving.

Conclusion:

Overall this project is function and successful. Even though the hardware is not perfect, but it considered well turned of project. Now the project is finish, the last thing that need to be done is design a poster for the viva.
