Smart curtain

In this final year project report, students will presenting about their project. It is one of the requirements before students graduating for University in Diploma in Electrical Engineering. As for our project, smart curtain is designed to open or close the curtain whether in automatic or manual way. It is to ensure the comfort way of users because in manual, users can drag the curtain open or close until the point that they want. While in automatic, users can just press a switch and the curtain will move whether fully open or fully close by itself. Proteus 7 was used to design and stimulate the circuit by drawing the schematic diagram in ISIS and the PCB layout in ARES. It is important to do the simulation first before fabricating the design prototype to prevent any mistake that will affect our expected output. After that, the circuit was tested on breadboard to get the expected output. Since this project use IC555 timer, high caution needed because the components is easily bum when the circuit is test or even when soldering the component. By applying cautiousness in doing the project, cost of the project can be reduced as the component is functioning in good condition.
