PAINTBALL MARKER AND HIGH PRESSURE TANK (Week 2)

Two materials are essential in my final year project in order for shuttlecock projection. They are:

• Paintball gun - I have chosen a Tippmann Gryphon as a material that will be used in my project because it is somewhat affordable, light and fulfilled the characteristics of a paintball gun that i need.

• HPA tank - I have chosen a high pressure aluminium tank (48ci 3000psi) with an output pressure of 850psi on preset. This is enough to provide enough air pressure to propel the shuttlecocks.

MATERIALS PURCHASING (Week 1)

This is the first week for my 7th semester in UniKL BMI which means this is my FYP 2.
On the very first week of this new semester, I decided to purchase some materials and items needed for my final year project as a kick start constructing my project.

For the beginning, I only started to purchase small items at Jalan Pasar somewhere in Kuala Lumpur and a few items from online shop as well. On the other hand, main materials and components such as the paintball marker and high pressure tank are keep on hold as I am still surveying them to find more affordable pricing.

Below are the list of items that I bought;

• RC servo motor
• 40 pins start up kit
• PIC programmer
• Power supply adapter
• Shuttlecocks

MY SLIDE PRESENTATION

These were my slide presentation for my project during the Presentation Day.

PROJECT PRESENTATION DAY (Week 12)

On the 12th April 2012, Thursday a Presentation Day was held at Gemilang Hall, Academic building and TTL foyer for the Final Year Project 1 students.

This week I completed almost all of my presentation slides. On Monday and Wednesday I met my supervisor and asked him if there were some mistakes that i still do. Fortunately, my supervisor only commented about the Gantt Chart and stated that I should changed the format and that other slides are acceptable.

During the Presentation Day, while waiting for my assessors, I went through all my presentation slides and tried to put all the words together to explained to them.

PROJECT SLIDE PRESENTATION (Week 11)

This is the week before the Presentation Day where all of the students taking the module FYP1 will present their slide presentation regarding their project to the assessors assigned to them.

On the first day of this week I have started my preparation for my slide presentation. My supervisor reminded us that the slide preparation does not have to include a lot of slides and we only have to include important keys for the project.

I made my slide presentation and meet up with my supervisor. He commented that there were too many words and some of the ideas included are not compulsory and some are not suitable. He studied the slide and he gave me some ideas and corrected my mistake.

He then asked me to go back and re-do the slide presentation and asked me to come and see him at the office the following week before the Presentation Day.

So far, my presentation slides do not have a lot of problems but I will make sure that the mistakes made will be corrected and the next time I show it to my supervisor, he would be satisfied.
