The Proposal..
“BAMBI”
Theme : Entertainment
Group Name : “POWER GURLS”
Group Member :
1. Amirah bt Adil
2. Fairuz bt Mazlan
3. Salmiah bt Salleh Hudin
4. Nor Syakirah bt Kamaluddin
Objectives:
After this project, students should be able to:
1. Use their own creativity to form their own design.
2. Use the appropriate program to run the project.
3. Discover the use of each sensor.
4. Identify the main part to move the project.
For teacher, after this project teacher should be able to:
1. Teach students the main part in the projects
2. Observe students’ understanding through their project.
3. Teach students to do the programming correctly.
4. Encourage students to use their creative thinking in developing their own design.
Problem Statement:
2. Observe students’ understanding through their project.
3. Teach students to do the programming correctly.
4. Encourage students to use their creative thinking in developing their own design.
Problem Statement:
Nowadays people keen to have their own pet. We can see these phenomena as many pet shops grow day by day. There are certain people willing to sacrifice lots of their money to fulfill their passion toward pets. It is a good hobby. However, current lifestyle especially in urban area makes this hobby limited. This hobby needs not only money, but it also needs space, time, and special care. There are also have some cases showed that pets-owner attacked by their pet. This situation makes people find other alternatives to replace their pet.
This project builds to replace the real pets. The theme of this project is entertainment especially for the primary school students. The target groups are primary school students because we want to introduce them to the design and technology field. In Malaysia, robotic in education was newly introduced. Yet, students were not exposed well to the subject. Therefore, the design and programming should be simple and easy for students to understand the concepts. It inspires students to be creative, use their higher order thinking (HOT) and applies problem solving skill. This is suite with the living skills syllabus for primary students which involve all those skills.

The Presentation..
Hi..
Today we have done our presentation. All things goes smooth but two of our team members could not come because they have hockey trainig for the competition the next week. However, I and Salmiah have done our best during the presentation.
At first, i am a little bit nervouse because if we compare with all the project in our class, our project is little bit simple but yet attractive. This is suitable with our aim which we develop the simple design and programming as the introduction of robotic for the students.
Our lectures Mrs Rashidah and Mr. Ghani had give positive critiques on our project. Firstly, it is about the design which they think we should modified the front tyres which Mr Gahni had give opinion to use only one tyre. Yet, we still proceed with two tyres because we thought that our Bambi as a mousedeer. So it should have two legs at front. However, Mr. Ghani said the design is not compulsary as the real one but suitable with the task that our project will carry on. So, after this we will take his opinion and improve in future.
Other than that, our lecturer also complaint on our sensor which we use only two sensors. For this part, we thaught that we will ask the students to make improvement on its design and programming. The one that we prepare only for the basic one. They should make adjustment by adding more sensors suite with the programming that they will develop for their project.
After all, our group has done the best and we hope this project will help teachers to teach robotic in calssroom. Hopefully, we can work as group together after this because it is fun. Learning the robotic help us to realize that there are many ways to teach robotic in a fun , attractive and intresting ways. By that, they will gain more knowledge not only in theory but practically.

Our Final Project: "BAMBI"
Introduction..
For our final project, we decide to make some modification on previous class project. We have made some changes in its design and programming to make the project more attractive and interesting for primary students. Today, two of our group members cannot come because they have hockey training. However, I and my friend Salmiah are able to finish our project. At the end of the assembling process, my friends have shown up and help us to make some enrichment on the design.
Concept:
Our concept is to entertain the children age between 7-12 years old. The robot that we create will be able to move towards its owner when it detects using the ultrasonic sensor. When it cannot see the owner it will stop and make some sounds. We called our project as Bambi because the design that we create same as the mouse deer.
Problems & Solutions:
During the assembling process we did not have a problem. We have made some modification from last design which we have change the position of the sound sensor because it will prevent the ultrasonic to function correctly. This is because the ultrasonic will sense the sound sensor before it can detect things in front of it. Besides that, if we look at last project, the front legs can move randomly but then we make it constant. This is due to the task that it will carry on which move forwards.
Besides that, to develop the suitable program for our project it takes patient and focus. For this project, it is my job to create the program and I find it little bit difficult. This is because it has to combine some command to make the project move as our group need. There, I get helped from my friend Abdul Rahman Hakimi. He has helped me a lot. Thanks buddy. Lastly after some modification, we are able to create the program. Below is the program that we use for our project.
Program:
Challenges:
1. Teacher can ask students to form their own design but use the same programming.
2. Students can try making some enrichment by adding other sensors such as voice sensor.
3. Try to built the program which it can moves through voice sensor and stop when see object in front of it.
Below are some pictures during the assembling activities. Check it out…!!!
