FYP1 : Week 9

IEEE Online Database Training

Objective :  To learn the correct and most efficient way to find database from IEEE website

Activity : 

This training held at Saniah Reduan Learning Hub  (Library) and the trainer is Mr. Edward Kennedy from United Technology. This training is how to getting started for searching on IEEE website which is www.ieee.org/ieeexplore . In this website there are few types of search for paperworks. For example, Journal category is the proved research which had finish the project while Standard is theory to prove journal is correct.

How to refine search on IEEE?

To search a sentence keyword is you need to add " at the start and end of the sentence. For example to search fall detection is "fall detection". If type fall detection without "" it will search for two different word which is fall AND detection.

Click Advance search option under search box, 

then it will show advance search options which you can type any keywords and u can set either between the keyword you want the it to be AND (it will have both keyword) , OR (if there have any one of the keyword) and NOT (it will not show that have not keyword).

Conclusion : I had learnt the right way to find research paperworks on IEEE with more precisely. So, I can starts with writing chapter literature review.

FYP1 : Week 8

Finding articles for literature review

Objective : To find article that can be revised as literature review

Activity : As we know, literature review is a review of previous projects. So, I had searched on IEEE website to find some of project that have same scope as my project. Basically IEEE is a website that provide research and paperworks of anything regarding electric and electronic. This website had to paid if want to download the paperwork. Fortunately, Unikl provided student access for IEEE for its students.

Few previous project that i've got from IEEE and even from Google Scholar such listed below :

• Wearable safety wristband device for elderly health monitoring with fall detect and heart attack alarm
• Elderly safety early-warning system based on android mobile phones
• Smart unit care for pre fall detection and prevention

Conclusion : I had found few useful paperworks of previous project that I can review and find the advantages and drawbacks of its project.

FYP1 : Week 7

Workshop for Report Writing for Chapter 1 & 2

Objective : To learn guideline on how to write Chapter 1 and 2

Activity : Today a report writing workshop for chapter 1 and 2 had been given by Dr.Imran. The event held on 29 August 2018 at TTL 2, UniKL BMI. Dr.Imran had brief all requirement for the FYP report is it should have 5 chapters which are:

• Chapter 1 : Introduction
• Chapter 2 : Literature review
• Chapter 3 : Methodology
• Chapter 4 : Results and discussion
• Chapter 5 : Future works and conclusion

However, only chapter 1 until chapter 3 needed for students FYP1 to do. The balance of chapter 4 and 5 will be proceed during FYP 2. This is because for this semester students only make proposal for their FYP. For FYP 2 will proceed with development of project.

Conclusion : Today I had been guide about report requirement for chapter 1 and 2. I can proceed with chapter 2 after I finished up write chapter 1.

FYP1 : Week 6

Start writing for Chapter 1

Objective : To finish up Chapter 1 for proposal report

Activity : My supervisor, Dr. wangi had provided Chapter 1 outline for proposal report which contain of 5 subtopics such as below:

Few articles and journals that I had read about how, what and why falls incident happened among elderly. Here is the best journal about falls incident statistic officially by World Health Organization (WHO) , Ministry of Health Malaysia and few more journal on effect of hypertension (high blood pressure) and hypotension (low blood pressure). 

• WHO : Falls
• Ministry of Health Malaysia : Falls among older adults
• 10 dangers of seniors living alone
• Why aging adults fall
• Abnormal blood pressure(symptoms&causes)

Conclusion : Research based on problem regarding to my FYP project had been done. I need to settle up this chapter 1 so I can proceed with chapter 2.

FYP1 : Week 5

Discussion with supervisor

Objective : To discuss with supervisor about the project based on project synopsis

Activity : I had made a project synopsis for fall detection and show it to my supervisor. In the synopsis, I told my supervisor  that i would like to focus on blood pressure abnormality. This is because one of the reasons falls incident happen is because if the blood pressure too high or too low, it cause the victim will feel dizzy and it may cause fall. 

Conclusion : I had done showing my project synopsis. The title of my project had been added up to Development 0F Elderly Fall Detection Due to Abnormality in Blood Pressure Reading. I already can start with writing report proposal for chapter 1.

FYP1 : Week 4

Selection project title

Objective : To decide project title for Final Year Project

Activity : Based from problem discussed last week, a solution is needed as the project will helps to handle the problem. The problem is about falls incident among elderly that can cause death. So, a way to help this problem is by making a project that can detect fall incident then send alert to someone nearby or any contact list. So, the title had been chose is "Development of Falls Detection among Elderly".

Conclusion : Project development had been chose as type of my FYP project. The title of the project also had been chosen. So, I need to produce project synopsis to show tomy supervisor to ask for her opinion.
