Flowchart for my sliding door.

This image is my flow chart.
The good points of my sliding door is:

This door has a laser sensor which permits it to open quickly.

It can sense people that are handicaped and leave them more time to go through the door.

In case of and emergency such as a fire, the door will stay open for people to go through without getting stuck in the building.

If a lot of people are passing through the door can sense them and will leave them more time to go by.

The door is very wide and a lot of people can go through it.

The disadvantages with my sliding door are:

You musn't rush through to much otherwise someone might get stuck between it.

Not many people think that they have enough time to go through the door, especially if theyre in a hurry, because they can push pass people.

As you can see there aren't many negative points of view on my sliding door. So think about it and you might end up buyinh it.

inputs and outputs

For my homework I have to write on my blog the different inputs and outputs needed in sliding door.

The input needed for the sliding door I chose (my design) is:

  • A laser sensor

The outputs needed for my sliding door design is:

  • motor:door opening
  • motor:door closing

Decision:

  • Is there someone going through
  • Is there motion
  • Is there anyone else going through

Because I have a laser sensor when people go through the door opens quickly with a delay of six seconds and the door can also sense if there is anyone else waiting. For handicapped people the door can sense them and give thema delay on ten seconds.

What we are expected to do for this project.

For this project we are expected to create a flowchart for a sliding door by practicing on logicator 2004 and testing it on burglar alarm, and pelican crossing softsystems.

During this project we are expected to do:
  • Individual work
  • group work
  • creativity
  • using all information gathered together
  • using inelligence
  • using our skills

I can't wait to start building the door itself.

Logicator 2004

Duiring the week I've been working on logicator 2004 with Nare.

We have done flowcharts for:
  • pelican crossings
  • burglar alarms

We have had a lot of fun and have made a flowchart for these softsystems to work.
