FINAL PROJECT

PLEASE, SEE THE FINAL PROJECT PRESENTATION HERE! CLICK THIS LINK! Here you can find all the specifications and programming codes you need.

SMART CLOTHES smart_clothes
a Here you can see the Arduino Medusa that controls the Board, the regulator board of Leds and the Button Board.
a The Leds board has the shape of the arrow, showing the movement of the biker
a Load the image, and then distribute it in the shape of the board
arduino When you push the button once, switches the right directional. when you press twice, the left one.

These system of boards functions with the Battery of 9V

Now the cycling is secure for you.

THE DEMONSTRATION VIDEO OF THE PROJECT

This technology is the great phenomenon that we can apply and develop. The cloths can be intelligent. Obviously, in my project I am not going to make any research about the nanotechnology for textiles, but surely I´ll investigate what types of textiles could fit best for intelligent cloths. Nowadays the investigation about nanotechnology of textiles is realizes by Berkley and Standford Universities and there are a lot of incertainties to reveal.

While planning the final project, it is important to consider the accesibility of materials on the local technological market. Importing things may result too costly. To develop intelligent cloths, we need temperature sensors, pressure sensors, electronic platform, bluetooth wearless connection and some leds for visual effects.

For this moment it is impossible to plan precisely all the proceses of the project due to the fact that the evolution from the idea to result have some steps. As planned, each assigment will become the next step of development of the final project and will be registrated in "project management".

The project consists of the investigation of different ways of devise connections. I mean the wearless connection between the electronic platform and any smartphone. To be more precise, what is planned to do is:

1) Programming of smartphone application. This app will capture the signal of the electronic platform.

2) Electronic platform that will be connected with sersor.

3) The sensor that will be inbuilt in the clothes.

4) System of leds inbuilt on the back of clothes. These ones will act as a headlamp (like those of the car) to make more secure your cycling and motocycling activities. For this objective I am going to use the gyroscope. Every time a person leants on the right or on the left, the leds turn on. It may be neccessary to set an accelerometer too.

THE VIDEO OF LEDS FOR ARDUINO MEDUSA

The only positive result I`ve reached cutting with Gravograph.

The programming code for button in Arduino medusa:

const int buttonPin = 6;
const int ledPin = 5;

int buttonState = 0;

void setup() {
pinMode(ledPin, OUTPUT);
pinMode(buttonPin, INPUT);
}

void loop() {
buttonState = digitalRead(buttonPin);
if (buttonState == HIGH) {
digitalWrite(ledPin, HIGH);
}
else {
digitalWrite(ledPin, LOW);
}
}
