1 The Smart/Safe Car Seat SENIOR DESIGN II MID-SEMESTER PRESENTATION

2 Andrew Evans (EE) Team Leader Hardware/Coding for Microcontroller Le’Quala Jackson (CPE) Bluetooth Module/Cell Phone Application/Website Design Sam Stockstill (EE) Hardware/ Coding for Microcontroller/ Bluetooth Module Kyle Willis (EE) Hardware/ Coding for Microcontroller Advisor: Dr. Raymond Winton Our Team

3 Outline  Problem  Solution  Constraints  Technical  Practical  Testing  Final Design  Questions

4 Problem  Extreme temperatures are reached in minutes inside vehicles when turned off  Caregivers getting out of daily routine and/or in an extreme hurry  The available electronic technology is not being utilized

5 Solution  Device works without the caregiver having to do anything out of the ordinary  Multiple sensors and Bluetooth module  Multiple catch safes in case one system fails or goes unnoticed during use

6 Changes from Design I  Bluetooth Module  Hc-05 made for Arduino  Rn-42 compatible with all PICs  Made by same company as PIC33  Cell Phone Application  Original design sent message once blue tooth became out of range  Not completely possible  Design II plan is to send alert from Pic33  Sent once auxiliary timer has expired

7 Technical Constraints NameDescription TemperatureDevice must be able to detect temperatures between 0 o F and 120 o F. Pressure SensorDevice must be able to detect a weight of at least 5lbs. [2] LED and AlarmDevice’s LED and alarm alerts must be distinguishable from other alerts. BatteryDevice will be powered by vehicle’s battery. Communication Compatibility Device must be compatible with Android OS. The device must also be able to connect to the caregiver’s cell phone through Bluetooth.

8 Practical Constraints TypeNameDescription SustainabilityDurabilityThe device must be able to withstand motion and vibration of the vehicle, coming in contact with moisture, and a vast range of temperatures. Health and SafetySafetyThis design aims to prevent deaths by helping reduce the problem of caregivers forgetting their children in vehicles unattended.

9 Sustainability The device must be able to work under many types of conditions:  Moisture  Vibrations and movement from vehicle  Extreme temperatures

10 Health and Safety Documented cases of children dying of heatstroke in United States directly related to being left in vehicles:  2013: 43 [1]  1998 – Present: 605 [1]

11 Overall Test Plan  Test PCB in lab  Make sure all signals are correct compared to bread board testing  Test PCB in Vehicle

12 Test Plan (Lab Testing)  Test PCB with 12V buzzer and 12V source  Test Bluetooth connection through variety of conditions  Test LEDs in multiple outside lighting conditions  How many LEDs and which type works best?

13 Test Plan (Vehicle Testing)  Test signals from vehicle  Test LED location (best visibility)  Pressure sensor placement  Heat test inside vehicle  Battery life  Test breaking point for the device  Full vehicle test

14 LED Alarm  10mm Ultra bright  5mm Red LED  5mm Green LED  5mm Wide-Angle Red LED LEDVoltage (V)Current (mA) 10 mm Ultra Bright2.623.56 5mm Red1.643.56 5mm Green1.93.56 5mm Wide-Angle Red1.663.56

15 Pressure Sensor  Test different positions of pressure sensor in car seat with constant weigh of 5lbs  Find most effective area relevant to:  Voltage  Consistency  Re-test with multiple pressure sensors and compare results

16 Bluetooth  Outside testing  Parking garage simulation testing  When does it fail?  How often does it fail?
