For this week, the task that i have done is compiling the final report to send to my supervisor which is Sir Zulhilmi bin Mustafa. Previous Friday, i have sent the draft of my report to give my supervisor comment about the report. There are plenty of things that I need to do such as add the reference based on what fact that I already use in the report. The reference type that I need to used for this report is IEEE. I also need to resize the picture that are in the report to make it clear. Basically, this week, I add some of information to complete the project report

Week 16: Progress Report (Chapter 3: Methodology)

Methodology is the systematic, theoretical analysis of the methods applied to a field of study. It comprises the theoretical analysis of the body of methods and principles associated with a branch of knowledge. For this week, i am doing the proposal report for chapter 3 which is Methodology. The contents that need to put in this chapter is shown below. Block Diagram Schematic Diagram Circuit Diagram Gannt Chart Components Used Software Used Below is the Block diagram of this project Basically, there is Input, Process and Output that need in the block diagram. The input for this project is Power supply to powered up the Raspberry Pi and Website Interface from the Internet of Things (IoT) platform. Next, it will be process to the Raspberry Pi, and Raspberry Pi command the Relay to turn ON or OFF the electrical appliances which will be the output of this project. The display and LCD 16x2 and website interface will shown the condition of the electrical appliances.

Week 15: Progress Report (Chapter 2: Literature Review)

For this week, i am doing the task for the proposal report chapter 2 which is Literature Review. In this chapter, it is about the review of the preview method and existing project that has been produced. Based on this project, it is related to the home automation system. There are three existing project that has been selected to make this proposal report which is: Bluetooth Based Home Automation System using mobile phone Design of An Intelligent Voice Controlled Home Automation System Smart GSM based Home Automation System  There was three method that has been used for the previous project to control the electrical consumption which is: By using Voice, Bluetooth and Mobile Phones  By using Application Smart Phones and Bluetooth By using Smart Phones and GSM After doing the research and the report for Chapter 2: Literature Review, i can related that, every project has their advantages and disadvantages.

Week 14: Progress Report 4

Last week, i have ordered at Autobotics Sdn. Bhd for Raspberry Pi 3 Model B+. The price of the Raspberry Pi at these shop quite cheap compare to the price at Jalan Pasar. The price of these Raspberry Pi is about RM 166.00 for the Raspberry Pi Board only.  At Jalan Pasar, the price is quite different which is RM 220.00. There is a lot of different cost of Raspberry Pi between Autobotics Sdn. Bhd and Jalan Pasar. Actually, there is new model of Raspberry Pi which is Raspberry Pi 4, but i preferred to choose Raspberry Pi 3 model B+ because it is much cheaper and still compatible to make this project. The specification of this Raspberry Pi is shown above. The Raspberry Pi model 3 B+ Specs SOC: Broadcom BCM2837B0, Cortex-A53 (ARMv8) 64-bit SoC CPU: 1.4GHz 64-bit quad-core ARM Cortex-A53 CPU RAM: 1GB LPDDR2 SDRAM WIFI: Dual-band 802.11ac wireless LAN (2.4GHz and 5GHz ) and Bluetooth 4.2 Ethernet: Gigabit Ethernet over USB 2.0 (max 300 Mbps). Power-over-Ethernet support (with separate ...

Week 13: Progress Report 3

The task that i am doing for this week is to survey components and cost for the components. Actually, i have list the main components that will be used for this project. Below is the table list of components that used to make this project and the price for each component: ITEM QUANTITY (SET) PRICE (RM) RASPBERRY PI 3 B+ MODEL 1  165.00 USB WIFI ADAPTER 1  22.50 DC POWER ADAPTER  (5V) 1 8.90 LIQUID CRYSTAL DISPLAY (LCD) 1  10.50 BULB 2 14.00 BULB HOLDER 2 4.00 COMPUTER FAN 1  4.50        TOTAL =         229.40 ITEM QUANTITY (SET) PRICE (RM) After i survey the price for the component needed to complete t...

Week 12:Progress Report 2

Image
Based on previous week, i have do research about the Raspberry Pi specification, so for this week, i am doing research about the software that related to this project. Basically, the software that need to be used at Raspberry Pi is Rasbian software. So what is raspbian? Raspbian:   is a free operating system based on Debian optimized for the Raspberry Pi hardware. It is an operating system that set of basic programs and utilities that make Raspberry Pi run. However, Raspbian provides more than a pure OS: it comes with over 35,000 packages, pre-compiled software bundled in a nice format for easy installation on Raspberry Pi.  Rasbian needed to run raspberry pi. For this week, i also done a little bit about the report for chapter 1 which is objectives and the significance of the project. For this week, i meet my supervisor which is Sir Zulhilmi to confirm that my report contained is right.

Week 11: Progress Report (Chapter 1)

The task that i focus for this week is Chapter 1, which is the introduction of the project. For this week, i'm going to the library to do research about the title that relate to the my project. Basically, my project is about Energy Management System by using IoT and Raspberry Pi. The contents that should put on this chapter as shown below. Chapter 1: Background of the Project Problem Statement Objectives of the project Significance of the project Scope and Limitations of the project Chapter Summary For this week, i am focusing on doing background of the project and the problem that related to this project.
