MY WORK PLAN AND ESTIMATE BUDGET OF PROJECT



WORK PLAN
The time frame allocated for every student to solve this research an complete this project is about two semester. For my project it had been started from January of 2014 and it will be end and complete in December 2014. For the details, refer to the Gantt chart bellow for the work planning of the project.



The Gantt chart showed the work plan of a year regarding to complete my final year project. Started from January and end of December.


As usual, the duration for the testing and troubleshooting the circuit and software is the longer regarding on my project. It is because when the project faces some problem, I need to solve the problem starting doing from the beginning and find the main problem part by part on the hardware and software. At the same time the reason why I need to settle the problem part by part because the Arduino is related to the Android.


ESTIMATE BUDGET

The estimation on the overall cost of my project. The table of budget is showing below.


All the costing budget in the table above are the estimation only and not finalize yet because may be I will involve with other component or hardware for upgrading my project. I will take note and proceed to my next research during my short semester and final year project II.

THE NETWORK DESIGN



After sketch the flow plan of block diagram, I implemented the block diagram to the network design. So, here I proved the network design of Security alarm of GPS coordinate using Arduino.



The overview of the system in this project I proposed GPS coordinate based system for tracking a car and employee the security system. It is consists a car unit and beeper sound from alarm.

From network design there is showing the car as a demonstration model. It is having connected the alarm with LED at the each door, bonnet and one more represented at engine. Then put the Arduino microcontroller with GPS module inside the car. The Arduino had been already programmed. Next, download or installed the GPS coordinate from smart phone. 
 
Here showing the network flow. Firstly, when the door is opened a beeper sound from alarm as a reminder that car has been stolen or broken. The connection of GPS search and find out the location of that car. The GPS receiver retrieves the location information from satellites in the form of latitude and longitude in every real-time reading. The processes of GPS information to extract desired values and to transmit this data to the server by program the Arduino software.
Lastly, Google map will display the current location of GPS coordinate from the laptop. And make sure there is has internet provider. Then, the end use will receive a text like “Your car has been broken into current location with latitude and longitude coordinates”.
