WEEK 9
Title of activity
- Research on robotic arm.
Objective
- To gain knowledge about robotic arm.
Content
- Do some research and reading to find information about robotic arm.
- A mechanical arm is robotic, usually programmable, with similar functions to a human arm. The links of such a manipulator are connected by joints allowing either rotational motion (such as in an articulated robot) or translational (linear) displacement..
- The links of the manipulator can be considered to form a kinematic chain. The business end of the kinematic chain of the manipulator is called the end effector and it is analogous to the human hand.
- The end effector can be designed to perform any desired task such as welding, gripping, spinning etc., depending on the application. For example robot arms in automotive assembly lines perform a variety of tasks such as welding and parts rotation and placement during assembly.
- Types
- Robotic arms are typically used in industry. Repetitive autonomous robots perform one task repeatedly based upon predetermined movements and specifically located objects. Start and stop commands are determined by position, acceleration, deceleration, distance, and direction. More complex actions are executed based upon sensor processing. If object orientation or position is unknown, arms are often paired with machine vision and artificial intelligence to identify the object and subsequently control the arm.

WEEK 7
Title of activity
- Research on sensor
Objective
- To find the suitable sensor for Intelligent Fire Fighting System.
Content
- Do some research in internet to find about temperature sensor.
- Study and understand the function of temperature sensor.
- Type K (chromel{90 percent nickel and 10 percent chromium}–alumel)(Alumel consisting of 95% nickel, 2% manganese, 2% aluminium and 1% silicon) is the most common general purpose thermocouple with a sensitivity of approximately 41 µV/°C, chromel positive relative to alumel. It is inexpensive, and a wide variety of probes are available in its −200 °C to +1350 °C / -328 °F to +2462 °F range. Type K was specified at a time when metallurgy was less advanced than it is today, and consequently characteristics may vary considerably between samples. One of the constituent metals, nickel, is magnetic; a characteristic of thermocouples made with magnetic material is that they undergo a deviation in output when the material reaches its Curie point; this occurs for type K thermocouples at around 350 °C .
- Applications of Type K thermocouples are used for measurements in many different types of environments such as water, mild chemical solutions, gases and dry areas. Engines, oil heaters and boilers are examples of places where they may be found. They are used as thermometers in hospitals and the food industry.
- The problems may be minimized by using them within the recommended temperatures and environments. Careful calibration, installing them with the proper connectors and wires, and using compensation circuits also serve as aids. K types constructed to reduce the errors include those that are well insulated, pre-aged or are annealed above their operating temperatures. Some users also take care to replace them often. Others switch to type N, which was specifically constructed to be an improvement over K.

WEEK 6
Title of activity
- Continue progress report with do research on methodology parts.
Objective
- To description on the opproach meterials and produce used identification on the limitations range of validity and assumptions employed.
Content
- This section contains an overall description of the research approach meterials and procedures.
- The diagram in figure above shows the process overall system that is capable of the Intelligent Fire Fighting System.
- The controller unit is based on micro controller. It controls all the blocks. The unit has a thermocouples to sense the different temperatures, which are fixed in circular path at equal 45 degree, in up and down positions.
- The thermocouple sensors are connected to signal conditioning unit. The sensor produces
low voltage signals (in terms of few milli-volts), which cannot be measured by ADC. Therefore
the weak signals are amplified to 0-5v level by signal conditioner unit. Maybe I'm using ‘K’ type
thermocouple, which has low non-linearity error.
- The output of the signal conditioner is fed to the analog to digital converter (ADC). The ADC has capable of measuring 8 channels and the resolution of 8 bits. The 8 channels are
used to measure the room temperature at different points. One 5-digit seven-segment display
is used to indicate channel No. & temperature.
- A stepper motors drives the robotic arm. One stepper motor is used to rotate the water gun in circular motion and the next one is for to move vertically.

Firefighters' goals are to save life, property and the environment. A fire can rapidly spread and endanger many lives; however, with modern firefighting techniques, catastrophe is usually, but not always, avoided. To prevent fires from starting, a firefighter's duties include public education and conducting fire inspections.
Because firefighters are often the first responders to people in critical conditions, firefighters provide many other valuable services to the community they serve, such as:
- Emergency medical services, as technicians or as licensed paramedics, staffing ambulances;
- Hazardous materials mitigation (HAZMAT);
- Vehicle Rescue/Extrication;
- Search and rescue;
- Community disaster support.
- Fire Risk Assessments
Additionally, firefighters also provide service in specialized fields, such as:
A hose team training to fight an aircraft fire aboard a US aircraft carrier, 2006.
- Aircraft/airport rescue;
- Wildland fire suppression;
- Shipboard and military fire and rescue;
- Tactical paramedic support ("SWAT medics");
- Tool hoisting;
- High Angle Rope Rescue;
- Swiftwater Rescue.
