Materials

The system is built using a Seeed XIAO ESP32-C3 microcontroller, ultrasonic sensors, IR sensors, push buttons, LEDs, jumper wires, a power adapter, and 3D-printed components for the organizer structure. Most required components are available in the laboratory; any additional parts can be purchased from local electronics stores.

Timeline

During different weeks on fab acadeMy Assignmentss I focused on the final project development here is the weeks which are related to my final project:

  • Week 2: I did the first design using creo.
  • Week 9: I tested different sensors and components that will be used in the final project, and created a sample slot to test on it.
  • Week 10: Tested different output devices
  • Week 11: Tested different communication protocols like Bluetooth and Wi-Fi
  • Week 15: Tried different interfaces.
  • Week 16: System Integration.
  • Week 18: Applications and Implications, Project Development.
  • Week 19: Invention, Intellectual Property and Income.
