WEEK 3 (14.8.2017 -- 18.8.2017)

For this week, we had met our supervisor to discuss few things 

regarding our project. We ask if we can use a remote sensor type for our product for the user if he misplaced it. Our supervisor agreed but suggest that we had to do some research about the sensor for its sensitivity. We also asked her opinion about using the powerbank as the power supply for the product. She agreed and she asked us to search for the light and easy-carry powerbank so that our product will not become a burden to the user. Besides we also search how long the powerbank can last when the product using it as power supply.   

                           FUNCTION OF THE PROJECT

For our project there are many functions, first is massaging the T-bone it is giving benefits of our health. Next is panic button, it is for our personal safety. It is very useful when a person especially a woman in a dangerous situation like in a crowd placed, it is limited when a person in the area that he/she is alone. The circuit will function when we press the button at the jacket and it will produce a loud noise that will alert people around us that will mean we are in a dangerous situation.

The other function is, when we misplaced the jacket in the house. A human sometimes can forget a lot of thing, so we are thinking using remote sensor and placed the circuit in the jacket so that when the jacket is missing in the house we still can find it. It's will function, when we press the button at the remote control, and the circuit inside the jacket will produce a loud sound so that we will know where we misplaced the jacket. The remote are small so we can hang the remote control with the house or car key.
