Schedule Display IOT Based
The completed project is a student designed program to display a weekly schedule for a faculty
member. The purpose of the project was to design a sustainable electronic schedule
display for use outside a faculty office. It was designed in the hopes that faculty
members could more easily update their schedules, and possibly allow for students to
schedule appointments. The program was designed using Python.
First of all we want to make the project sustainable. Since the item seemed like more of a luxury than a necessity, self-sustained systems are more cost effective in terms of long-time use, and thus seemed more appealing. The first major
requirement is to make sure that the design could electronically display an entire
week’s schedule. The project also needed to be relatively inexpensive. Since it is not sponsored by any outside sources, any investment came purely from our own wallets. As a result, the project needed to stay within our own budgets. It is
important for the design to have a level of interactivity as well. Incorporating this
was necessary to make the device easier to use for both students and faculty. As well,
by making the project interactive it stands out much more than the previous
technology of stapling a paper to the bulletin board. An interactive device also
begins the steps for future development to expand and implement functionality such
as student appointments input. Because the final goal for the project is to mount outside a faculty office, the design also needed to be light enough so it can successfully hang on the wall. Finally, the design also required easy updating of the
schedule. If each time the schedule needed to change programs had to be re-compiled
and reloaded onto the device, it would not be very useful for the owner.
The design process took many steps that would build on each other. With a foundation of requirements, the next step was to decide what physical components were needed for the final product. To view the schedule an electronic display was necessary, and including interactivity required some type of buttons or switches. it seemed the next step would be to decide on a display.
A. Choosing the Display
Finding a suitable display was an important step in the development of the
project because it would determine how to confront the remainder of the work. Many
display devices were possible, although the choice between two types seemed important to focus the decision: a regular LCD screen, or the new Raspberry Pi 5 inch HDMI TFT Screen LCD
we will also need a small single board computer. By connecting peripherals like Keyboard, mouse, display to it, it will act as a mini personal computer. To reduce the size and weight of the system we will use Raspberry pi 3 B+ model
Ideally the final product would mount outside a faculty office and replace the current
system of a printed piece of paper. The hope would be that this would be easier for a
faculty member to update their changing schedule from week to week, as well as
remain open for future development of functionality such as a touch-screen or student
access to make appointments.
The Main Technical devices need for this project is Raspberry pi 3 B+ Model and An Amold Touch Screen of About 7 inches. Along with that we will need some switches and Protecting Cases.
