Project Title

Abstract

This section should be a couple lines to describe what your project does.

Objectives & Introduction

Show list of your objectives. This section includes the high level details of your project. You can write about the various sensors or peripherals you used to get your project completed.

 A temperature sensor will be placed under the hood of the car near the engine. This will be used to access the amount of heat emanating from the engine. 
 It will complement the coolant temperature sensor's reading. 
 The development of the system and its integration with SJ1 will as follows:
 
 1. Acquiring a temperature sensor that can operate in the full range of temperature swing that an average engine fluctuates between.


 2. Using a sturdy standoff to ensure it is able to read values accurately from the air around the engine.
 3. Supplying power to the sensor from the SJ1 board.
 4. Processing sensor outputs through the onboard ADC to make them processor readable.
 
 5. Creating a task that polls the value from the sensor at intervals of 10 ms and pushes it to a queue.
 6. Creating a second task that waits for the queue data and displays it.
 7.  If the temperature exceeds safe limits, a software interrupt is triggered and decides whether to alert the driver or cut the ignition.

Parts List & Cost

Give a simple list of the cost of your project broken down by components. Do not write long stories here.

Design & Implementation

The design section can go over your hardware and software design. Organize this section using sub-sections that go over your design and implementation.

Hardware Design

Discuss your hardware design here. Show detailed schematics, and the interface here.

Hardware Interface

In this section, you can describe how your hardware communicates, such as which BUSes used. You can discuss your driver implementation here, such that the Software Design section is isolated to talk about high level workings rather than inner working of your project.

Software Design

Show your software design. For example, if you are designing an MP3 Player, show the tasks that you are using, and what they are doing at a high level. Do not show the details of the code. For example, do not show exact code, but you may show psuedocode and fragments of code. Keep in mind that you are showing DESIGN of your software, not the inner workings of it.

Implementation

This section includes implementation, but again, not the details, just the high level. For example, you can list the steps it takes to communicate over a sensor, or the steps needed to write a page of memory onto SPI Flash. You can include sub-sections for each of your component implementation.

Testing & Technical Challenges

Describe the challenges of your project. What advise would you give yourself or someone else if your project can be started from scratch again? Make a smooth transition to testing section and described what it took to test your project.

Include sub-sections that list out a problem and solution, such as:

My Issue #1

Discuss the issue and resolution.

Conclusion

Conclude your project here. You can recap your testing and problems. You should address the "so what" part here to indicate what you ultimately learnt from this project. How has this project increased your knowledge?

Project Video

Upload a video of your project and post the link here.

Project Source Code

References

Acknowledgement

Any acknowledgement that you may wish to provide can be included here.

References Used

List any references used in project.

Appendix

You can list the references you used.
