FYP SEM 2 (WEEK 14)

this is the last week of study week.. and also this is the presentation week.. alhamdullillah.. the presentation had done yesterday.. my project was fully function without any interruption  the presentation held at the level 2, admin building..  My assessor are Mr Mohd Razif Abd Razak and Miss Nor Khairiah bt Ibrahim. Both of them are from communication section. Before the final presentation, there are many things that i have need to do for fyp..

Week 14 schedule:

- focused more to complete the project
- still try to combine the configuration
-change the plan, which did not used the lcd display
- and also the program of GPS and data logger was split without the combination
- make a GPS measurament, got the last result for the project
- present the project

for the final project, i have change the plan that i do not used the lcd display and do no combine the configuration. to get the tracking maps, the data configuration can be used. The disadvantage not combining these two configuration is, the project is not applicable and need to do one by one. Last configuration only used the GPS and data logger program.


Last result - example of tracking route


Final Project


FYP Poster



The final year project presentation had done. Special thanks to my project's supervisor, Sir Saiful Yusri b. Mohd Yassin  because gave me many advises and supervision to complete this project and got the final result. ~ ^^
