  3. Team #1 Expertise & Experience • Ahmed Omar • Muhammad Imran • Apratim Kar • Chang Jung • Gurpreet Singh • Thomas Murray • Expertise: Generator Mechanic Experience: US Military • Expertise: VHDL & Automation Experience: PLCs & Power distribution • Expertise: Circuits / Energy Conversion /Solder Experience: Breadboarding • Expertise: Power Systems Experience: Power system design • Expertise: Integrated Circuits & Electronics Experience: Circuit board design and layout • Expertise: Microprocessor design & programming Experience: HDMC Driveline Development

  4. Team #1Total Resources • 35/Wk Man-hours • $1000 UWM sponsorship for project

  5. Team #1 Decision Making • Through much consideration, we decided that the best approach to decision making for our group is the majority vote strategy. • If a decision can not be effectively reached by our group, our TA will be employed to help us reach a decision • The Prof/Lecturer has the final call on any team decision

  6. Team #1Roles assignments • Lead Project Integrator (LPI) • Thomas Murray • Lead System Designer (LSD) • Mohammad Imran • Lead Presentation Manager (LPM) • Ahmed Omar • Lead Report Manager (LPM) • Chang Jung & Apratim Kar • Lead Manufacturing Mgr (LMM) • Gurpreet Singh

  7. Project Idea #1 • Mobile Automated Solar Power • It will provide power to RVs, campers and remote weather stations. Power will be accessible through outlets to where equipment i.e. computers can be connected. • Will contain solar panels with an electrical interface, and will power up small household appliances. • Project seems to intrigue group members.

  8. Mobile Automated Solar Power Actuator (Positioning System) Solar Panels Regulator Battery Charging System -including status indicator Controller Photo Sensor Inverter 12VDC -> 120VAC

  9. Project Idea #2 √ X • Remote Accessed Pet Tender • System will be accessed via the internet and through this, the owner will be able to monitor pets and also dispense food and water as needed • AC/DC, internet software, access via internet • Owners will be able to monitor their pets while away from home and dispense food/water as needed • Considerable interest from group members who are pet owners

  10. Autonomous Pet Tender Micro Controller and Interface Module Automatic Dispenser (food) Power Supply Automatic Dispenser (water) PC Software and Interface Web Cam AC/DC Converter

  11. Project Idea #3 • Automated Lawn Mower • Mower will cut the loan with no human interference. • The lawn mower and yard will have sensors that will ensure mower stays within the yard, ending in cutting the lawn automatically. • DC powered. • It will be a good solution for lawn care during extreme weather or for people who are unable to take care of their lawn themselves. • Product already exists in market place

  12. Autonomous Lawnmower DC Drive Motor Power Supply Microcontroller Position Sensing Ultra Sonic Sensors Blade Control

  13. Project Idea #4 • Remote Controlled Vehicle • Vehicle will be used in UWM campus open house exhibitions to promote the engineering department. • Vehicle will have a high power DC motor, controlled via pulse width modulation. • DC power will be supplied via Pb-Acid batteries. • No identical product exists in the market. • Project is sponsored by UWM up to $1000.00

  14. Remote Controlled Vehicle (Original) 24V -> 5V Regulator Turn Signal Modules PIC Programming Modulated Pulse Width Electronic Speed Control (Microcontroller) Proximity Sensors / Interface Motor Controller/ Interface

  15. Selection Matrix

  16. Project Selection • Overall Selection Process • Our project selection process was conducted as follows • First stage was brainstorming in which team members proposed several project ideas. • Second stage was drawing the expected block diagrams for each proposal. • Third stage was evaluating each project and assigning them score according to the provided selection matrix, which lead to our chosen project. • Project was chosen for the following reason: • It is funded, meets the requirements of 1 block per person and it can be prototyped and demonstrated easily. • The major risks in the project: • Time constraints, possible design challenges • Reason for rejecting other proposals: • Other projects had no external funding and were not a good match for team skills • Project selection was achieved through unanimous decision

  17. Proposed Product Remote Controlled Vehicle • Proposed project is a remote control car, with remote controlled lights and turning signals. • Car will be used during University open houses to promote the engineering department and also for kids entertainment. • This will be the first UWM owned remote controlled vehicle. • There is no identical project readily available in the market. • Project is part of the toy industry.
