Proyect Report


REPORT

During this partial my team and I had a lot of achievements. First of all we elaborated our house model, the one that we used to implement the electronic circuit we are using. I also learned to collaborate with my team members in order to elaborate a better work.  I learned to be patient and to work with other people.
We also elaborated 2 different electronic circuits, one of them was the Illumination system. That consist of 9 leds connected in a parallel circuit. We also elaborated an exterior illumination system. The other electronic circuit is a security system that we elaborated with the LM555 integrated circuit.

We still have to elaborate the irrigation system that we will put in two of the corners of our house model. We also have to elaborate the ventilation system that will be in the inside of the house model.


I think all of the team member agree with all the work we have done. We still have a lot to do to the integrating project report, and we have to elaborate the two electronic circuits for the ventilation and the irrigation system.

Screwdriver
A screwdriver is a tool, manual or powered, for driving or removing screws.

Handlebars
Device made up of two handles connected by a tube, for steering the bicycle.

Rims
Metal circle constituting the wheel’s circumference and on which the tire is mounted.
