This second week of TF SCALE 2, we try to made our plan come true. After we indentify the problem and based on the interviews we did to the elderly there using PBL, and thanks God we made it. We’ve got an idea how to solve the problem. Team 5 or we call it Dream5Team the member of team 5 is Me, Fitria from PNM, Lutfi from PKM, Adevian from PNM, Jenda from PCR, Shawn from RP and Xian Jin from RP.
Dream5Team !
We make a project titled E-SmartSystem. E for the emergency, using remote control using radio frequency with the button that could give an alert when eldery need helps. SmartLight means the lamp of elderly’s house can turn on and turn off the lights automatically just by passing through the door using IR. So the sensor can detect motion. Sensors connected to Raspi and then Raspi be will generate the program which we describe our system.

So glad in team 5, so happy to know each other, so fun to work and made the project together 🙂
October 7th 2015, this is my third day in Singapore. We went to Evergreen Circle (Elderly Community). Evergreen official brief us to try communicate with elderly. RP Student help us to communicate with them because most of them is Chinese to know what are their problem and what can we do to help solve their problem.
Team 4 and Team 5 was interviewing the elderly
After we visited evergreen, we have a lunch. And continue the excurtion to Bollywood Veggie. I thought Bollywood Veggie is something like India Community place. But it’s a totally wrong. Bollywood Veggie is a place that so much type of plant. And we have learnt about some plants and vegetables.
Different type of banana It’s so hot, but we must take a photo 😀
Next day, October 8th 2015 its time for us to identify the problem that we got from evergreen. We discuss about some problem may happen at evergreen. Me and Team 5 got idea to make Automated Lamp and Emergency System for elderly’s room because some elderly told us it will be so nice if they could turn off and turn on the light automatically. And the common emergency call is just in the corner, so if they need help the emergency call is too far. So Team 5 make an emergency system also.
Team 5 discussing Raspi project
Mr Jason Lim told us to solve the problem using PDT that we have to find what we know, what we don’t know and what to find out. And then, we have to present to each team and other team will ask question and give advice about our idea.
