Analysis, Research and Investigation
Associated Problems for Hearing Impaired:
• awareness of caller - door bell / knocking!
• telephone ringing
• television / radio
• cooker alarm
• smoke alarm
All sound
• intruder
based
• dog barking
Analysis, Research and Investigation
Alarm integrated into TV Remote Control
Analysis, Research and Investigation
My Design Brief
Design and manufacture a device which will
signal to a hearing impaired person that
someone is at the door. An output light will
indicate when someone is at the door. The
device will also include an alarm to indicate
that an intruder has entered the house.
Analysis, Research and Investigation
My Specifications
1. The device should be operated by a normal door-bell push button
2. When the button is pressed the LED will flash until the device is reset
3. It should be easy to change the battery
4. The product / device should also hold a TV remote control
5. I should be able to make the project in the Technology room
6. The electronic parts should be visible and accessible to the examiner
7. The product should be strong and withstand sudden shocks
8. The product should be environmentally friendly
Overall Management of the Project
• Analysis of available resources
• Time and budget constraints
• Proposed timeframe/Gantt chart etc.

Design Ideas & Selection of Optimum Solution
•Three design ideas
•Annotated sketches
•Select one of the three ideas
•Justify selection

Design Ideas & Selection of Optimum Solution
Optimum Solution
I have decided to select idea 1 as the design I will make. I will
make the last version where there is a housing to contain the
circuit as shown below in the sketch.
Design Ideas & Selection of Optimum Solution
I chose this idea because:
• It does not have too many parts
• All the parts are quite big so they will be easy to make
• Acrylic is easy to shape and bend
• A light will flash if an intruder enters the house
• Another light will flash to show someone is at the door
• It contains an electronic system
• It will hold a remote control
Design Ideas & Selection of Optimum Solution
Circuits
• Outline how circuit works
• Pros
• Cons
Circuit 1
Circuit 2
Circuit 3
Design Ideas & Selection of Optimum Solution
Optimum Solution
My circuit design will use a combination of
circuit 2 and circuit 3.
Design Ideas & Selection of Optimum Solution
I chose this circuit because:
•It will show when someone is at the door & when the door is open.
•All the components are in the technology room.
•I can use the CNC router to make the PCB board so soldering this
circuit will be easier than using strip-board.
•I have used push to make and push to break switches before so I
am familiar with how they operate.
