Write Parts Selection Section

[LBP311]

This section can be worked on although the bill of materials (BOM) will not be completed until a later date. It will NOT be in a "Review" or "Done" status until then.

This section should address these course outcomes:

• [x] identify, formulate, & solve complex engineering problems by applying principles of engineering, science, & mathematics
• [x] acquire & apply new knowledge as needed, using appropriate learning strategies
• [x] Includes the "New Parts" assignment
• [ ] Bill of Materials (BOM) as Appendix C

Also Include:

• [x] Part Comparison Charts Note: These will not be checked off until said charts are appropriately included within the report.
• • [x] Motor
• • [x] Buzzer
• • [x] LEDs
• • [x] Pressure-Sensitive Sensors

[LBP311]

Adding new Components to the Part Comparison Charts. It will add more tasks in order to better monitor progress and completeness.

Updating "Part Comparison Charts" checklist to include Pressure-Sensitive Sensors.

I feel as though I am already well-informed of the different components available for consideration but now require specific parameters to assist with deciding on the most beneficial component.

This comment will be used to monitor the development of the Comparison Charts. This is not a key aspect in completing the tasks but would assist me in monitoring my progress.

• [ ] Part Comparison Charts (Development)
• • [x] Motor
• • [x] Buzzer
• • [x] LEDs
• • [x] Pressure-Sensitive Sensors

[LBP311]

The comparison charts for the Motor, Buzzer, and LEDs were created. Only the LED Development Chart was marked off because it was completed to the best of my ability. I feel that I need to do more part research for the Motor Development Chart to ensure that I have not missed any potential components that could be better implemented in my design. The buzzer incorporates the idea of both a Piezo Buzzer and a Speaker. I feel that I need to do more research on both types of components and their functionality, mostly the speakers, to fully understand their application and create a comprehensive chart to assist in a better implementation of my design. For the Pressure-Sensitive Sensors, I feel as though I have a sufficient list of possible components but require a list of parameters for consideration.
