Today in class we had to choose our own design to make a flowchart. The design I chose includes an emergency door which means that it opens even in an emergency. It has a laser sensor which makes it go faster if there is a que.

I think that we are soon goibng to start making the actual door. I am so excited.

I feel that in class were having a lot of fun especially when we stay on powerpoint.

Last Friday we looked at a website called controling and monotoring. We basically saw how different objects work like when you order coffee from a coffee machine, etc..

Then we started making a flow chart to see how different things worked.

It was erally fun and I was suprised to see exactly and precisly how different objects worked especially the coffee machine and the burgular alarm.

Today in computer technology I was told to design on powerpoint 3 different types of sliding doors with different sensors.

The 3 kinds I chose were:

• A sliding door with a motion sensor
• A infred sensor
• A sensor that you step on

It was so fun drawing, designing and adding animation to the sliding doors. I think that the part that I found the hardest was adding the animation.

It was such a fun class!

Reflection

What did I do Today?
Dtae: 11.01.10

Today in class we were given three questions on sliding doors, with a website answering them. I could now know waht I should be prepared for doing this project.

I think that now I know what the aim of this project is and what I will be working on.

Analysis Of Task

What do I need to know before I can start this project and how can I find out about them?

• How does an automatic door work?
• Why do we have automatic doors?
• What different types of automatic doors are there?
• What different sensors are there?
• What are automatic doors used for?

I could get some information from:

• Internet
• Books
• Interviewing
• Myself
• Looking at an automatic door
