Project 1 • A device to sense when a parking checker marks the tires of your car. The device will send a signal to an external communication device to notify the user that the car has been marked. • Power sources: Battery • User interface will be a small key chain. • There is no other known product like this on the market • Project fits team interests well and could be potentially marketable.

Project 2 • Alarm clock that has an internal MP3 player built into the device. The alarm clock would have a removable flash memory for music storage. • There would be a display for choosing the music like similar MP3 players. • AC cord from 120volt/ 60 Hz outlet with battery back up. • There is currently no product like this on the market. • Highly attractive project to the group and personal interests.
Project 3: Automated Pigment Dispenser Custom-Paint • Automated pigment dispenser for custom paint mixing • Receives paint recipe from off-the-shelf hardware store color scanner • Output data to a automated rotating pigment dispenser to get exact color match • Fits group interest by incorporating motor control and PIC programming.

WEEK 2: Project Refinements All 3 initial projects were scrapped and 2 new, more specific proposals were created. The following slides will detail these projects as well as a recommended project.
Additional Project 1Sewer Pipe Inspection Vehicle • A device that fits inside of a residential sewer pipe with a camera that could be used to inspect the inside of a pipe. • The vehicle will likely carry some sort of umbilical cord to interface with the user controls. • The user controls will have forward and reverse ability as well as some sort of display.

Project Selection • This project was selected based on team members personal interests and abilities. There was a strong interest in doing a project with motor control and the RC Jeep project should be a great exercise in this. • The other projects were rejected due to high cost and extreme amounts of ancillary engineering design that may not be able to be completed in 1 semester. • The project was eventually unanimously selected by the team. There were some regrets letting go of the other project but they were resolve relatively easily through discussion. • Project Risks: • Being dependent on the timeframes of other groups working on the jeep. • Not being to interface with the existing technology
Proposed Product Summary • CEAS RC Jeep with larger DC motors, drive protection, and motor speed sensing control (Traction Control). • User requirements: Ability to operate a hand held transmitter with forward and reverse controls. • The primary benefit is a product that get the attention of the audience the school is trying to reach. • The product can be used for promotion of the school of engineering at grade/high schools or other university sponsored events. • The UWM Police have a similar vehicle they use as a promotional tool. We do not believe that the product has a commercial market at this time. • The vehicle fits into the consumer products industry.

Ethics and Societal Issues • Product failure could cause fire, bodily injury due to a collision. • User hazards: Collisions and fire. • Harm can be avoided by inserting current limiting on the driver circuit, possibly a speed governor, making the vehicle more controllable with feedback control. • Faulty/Flawed engineering would lead to the protection devices not working properly or injury to user/damage to property. • The driver circuitry and remote controlled aspects need to be 100% robust.
