ABOUT ME

 Hello everybody! 

I am Chang Ji Hinn, in this blog I will be documenting my journey through CP5070, Chemical Product Design & Development.

My goal for this module is to hone my skills on creating a chemical product and developing a prototype. I am also looking forward to learning about Arduino programming as this will be my first time being exposed to it.

In order to accomplish my goals, I will have to use the available resources on Brightspace to learn about Arduino programming as well as exploring the program and gadgets at my own time. To improve my skills in developing a prototype, I will need to work closely with my team to come up with great ideas on how to improve our product while at the same time cultivating my own skills using 3D printers and laser cutter.

I will know that I have accomplished my goals for this module if I am able to fully utilise and understand the coding and uno maker kit for the Arduino programming and having created a design that I am proud of.

Blog Entry 1: Laser Cutting

     Welcome everybody to my first blog entry for CP5070. In this blog entry I will be sharing what I have learnt as well as my experience using the laser cutter during the laser cutting competency test . BACKGROUND INFORMATION Laser cutters utilises a concentrated laser beam which hits the surface of a material and heats it strongly until it melts or vaporises. Once the laser beam has penetrated the material, the cutting process can begin. The benefits of using a laser cutter include: The laser beam is able to provide high levels of precision and accuracy which allows more complex designs to be etched on smaller designs while still having a clean cut. There are less wa ste and contamination that is pro duced The laser allows for cutting of difficult to cut materials NOTABLE SAFETY HAZARDS Laser cutting comes with inherent safety risks and hazards. It is important for users to take note and understand the the hazards associated to laser cutting and the safety control meas...

Blog Entry 5: Hypothesis Testing

Welcome back everybody! In this blog I will be talking about hypothesis testing and sharing everything that I have learned.  HYPOTHESIS TESTING The first thing we should know about is what exactly is hypothesis testing. While it may seem quite obvious from the name itself, it is actually much deeper than what I thought it would be. Hypothesis testing allows for statistical hypothesis to be proven or rejected through formal procedures. Statistical hypothesis: an assumption about a population that may or may not be correct. Hypothesis testing can be used to answer questions such as: Is the new material as strong as the old one? Is the performance of our product enhanced after undergoing the revamp? Is the spare part performing as well as the original part? In my case I will be conducting an experiment to undergo hypothesis testing for the effects of various factors on a catapult. Frequent readers of my blog will recognise that this is actually the same experiment as my practical for ...

Blog Entry 3 - Arduino Programming

Welcome back everybody! Today I will be sharing my experience my journey in Arduino Programming using the maker UNO kit as well as showing some of the the tasks that I have completed. Contents 1. Input devices:     a.  Interface a potentiometer analog input to maker UNO board and measure/show its signal           in serial monitor Arduino IDE.                                                                                        b.  Interface a LDR to Maker UNO board and measure/show its signal in serial                               monitor  Arduino IDE 2.
