Title: Fyp briefing
Title: Preparation on FYP 2 Exhibition Day
The presentation will be
conducted online via Microsoft Teams due to some circumference that make the
presentation be held online. So the student must prepare a slide with the video
in order to present.
Date:5/10/2020-11/10/2020
Title: Result
This
week will show my final result regarding to my final year project which is
Flood monitoring and Warning System using Internet Of Thing (IoT) application. The
NodeMcu will collect data from ultrasonic sensor every second. It measured 3
different water level distance ranged from more than 10 cm which is normal, 6cm
until 10 cm is moderate and less than 5cm is high. All the collected data will
be display on IoT platform which is ThingSpeak.
Normal Condition:

Title: Overview of the design prototype
In
this week I decide to create my final design prototype for my project. I have thinking
some idea to create a suitable design regarding to my project. Picture below
show my final overview of Flood Monitoring and Warning System.

Title: NodeMcu with Thingspeak
In
order to monitor the device with the web server, first Nodemu will collect and
send the data that have been collected from Ultrasonic sensor. Then, the data
which is flood level can be display and recorded to Thingspeak web server.
To
connect the NodeMcu to the internet, the network credential such as SSID and
password of the WiFi network must be enter to coding. Then the ThingSpeak
account credential which is channel number, API Key, and Author Key. These were
all recorded while setting the ThingSpeak IoT Platform
Obviously,
to link NodeMCU to the internet, the WiFi.begin function will be called.
WiFi.status() is used to search for active network communication. After a good
connection, the NodeMCU IP address will print a message on the Serial Monitor.
ThingSpeak.begin function to connect with ThingSpeak by use credentials that
have been provided.

Title: Construct Circuit Testing
After done testing Lcd and
ultrasonic sensor with the NodeMcu. I decide to construct the circuit based on
the new circuit diagram that I have construct in fritzing software.
My circuit managed to function
successfully that can be see from the picture below

Title: Testing of functionally of the component
In this week I continue to be testing the functionality of my sensor with the nodemcu.
After completing the construction of the
circuit, the nodemcu will be coding using Arduino IDE and then be upload. The
picture below show that the sensor is working fine without any error.

Title: Redefine the
methods to create the system
In this
week, I decided to create a new circuit diagram for my project because of the
changes of hardware that I have made in my Fyp2. So the picture below show my
new circuit diagram.

Title: Fyp Briefing
The briefing was conducted Via Teams at 3pm. The briefing was meant to give some explanation to all

Title: Redefine the methods to create the system
After I
have finalize my final hardware and software that will be use in this project
on the last week, I decide to make some changes on the block diagram and
flowchart regarding to my project.
Based
on block diagram in figure 8, the ultrasonic sensor are used to sense water
level of the river. Then NodeMcu will act as a microcontroller that collects
all the data on this device and then been transferred to the IoT platform which
is Thingspeak. The LCD as well as LED's role is to provide a view and show the
water level. Buzzer works as an alarm to alert the public and the authorities
when the floods occur, and the data will be uploaded to the IoT platform

Title: Redefine the methods to create the system
The first
week is about redefine the methods to create the system. After further
research, i found that there are few changes need to be made. The first change
that I made is the microcontroller. Before this I use Arduino uno+ esp8266 wifi
module but after made some research regarding my project I found NodeMCU
esp8266 microcontroller that contain both wifi module inside one compenant. So
it makes more easier and lower the cost to construct my project
Beside
the changes that I think is about to take out the lcd display. It it because I
think it is not relevant to have lcd on my project because I have use Iot web
to display the value of water level.
After
further understanding, here are the final hardware and software that will be
use in this project:
Hardware:
NodeMcu
8266
Us-100
ultrasonic sensor
Led
Buzzer
Software:
Arduino
IDE software
Thingspeak
Proteus
Fritzing
