This week I do some schematic diagram for my tracker. I use software named Fritzing and below is my schematic diagram.

Week 10

This week I keep research for my journal and start to write it on my proposal. I have to understand the journal carefully cause I cannot just copy and paste because it is stated as plagiarism. So I have to use my own word to the journal review to prevent plagiarism.

Next, I also research more about the hardware and software. This time is more detail about the function of the software and hardware and also their specification of the hardware and software.

Week 9

In this week, I try to research about my flowchart and what i get is my flowchart is as shown below :

I also start my literature review which is I find the journal in the internet and read. I try to understand the journal because I have to write it on my proposal report which is stated in Chapter 2 : Literature Review.

The methodology have to consist of :

• Block Diagram
• Flowchart
• Schematic Diagram
• Simulation Software
• Plan layout
• List of components/equipment
• Cost estimation
• Gant chart

Week 7

This week I start to proceed with chapter 1 for FYP1 which is the content on chapter 1 is as stated below :

• Background of the project
• Problem statement
• Objective of the project

Week 5

I do some research about Arduino. The first thing I try to find the software to use to program the arduino to make my project function as I want. The result I find is I will use Arduino 1.9.6.

I also research my project on Youtube to more understand about how my project is function and all the hardware.

After some explanation from my supervisor, I had more understand about my project and the hardware use in my project and the cost for the hardware.
