Class - Week Eleven

During class today, we mainly spent the time refining our design, and sharing idea with the other groups, and then finished off by working on our A2 storyboard to be presented next week.

While we were playing around with the circuit, the buzzer and reed switch weren't working 100% as they should, possibly due to loose connections in the breadboard, or another magnetic field affecting the reed switch. Therefore we spent a lot of time trying to resolve this apparent issue.

Towards the end of the lesson, I drew up a few more pages for the storyboard, which we will possibly use for our A2 storyboard. I will look to put these into photoshop and put them all onto one page, which we can then use the large format printers at the university to output. The newest drawings for the storyboard have been attached to the bottom of this blog post.

Over the course of the next week, before our final hand-in, we will look to figure out what was wrong with the circuit, and refine it so it is functioning properly, print out our A2 storyboard, and whip up a video to show how our alarm clock works.
