PROGRESS REPORT FYP2 (W4)

Week: 4

Date: 22th February 2021 - 26th February 2021

Activity: 

• Finalizing the components needed to use for the project

Objective:

1. To finalize the components used since a few changes have been made

Content:

• From the previous report, the MPXA4250AP pressure sensor that is used to measure the pressure of the air is cancelled since the pressure inside the ambu bag will be fixed. Besides, the price is quite costly and does not necessary to be used since this is the development of a low-cost resuscitator. 

• Arduino Uno will also be changed to Arduino Mega since Arduino Mega has a lot more I/O pins compared to Uno. This is because I want to avoid insufficient number of ports when assembling the components later. Also, it will be easier if more features want to be added later on for future improvement of the project. 

• The Ambu bag for this project has been choose and has a tidal volume of 1830ml with stroke volume of 800ml.

Result: -

Conclusion: 

As a conclusion, all components used for this project has been finalized and some of the components are still being shipped and has not arrived yet. Once everything has arrived, I will start to assemble all components.
