Inquiry for components from Cytron Technologies Sdn. Bhd.

Postby Jerry Choon » Sun Nov 02, 2014 6:25 pm

To Cytron Technologies,

Hi, I'm a 4th Year Engineering Student from University of Malaya, who is having Final Year Project, and I'm interested to buy several components from your company. However, I need some advice from your technical group regarding the components' specification which are suitable for my project.

For your information:
1. I want to detect crack sound from knee during "Squat and Stand" movement.
2. The sound signal (analog) will convert to digital signal (waveform).
3. The digitized sound signal sends to PC for sound amplitude and frequency analysis (for example, analyse using MATLAB software).

Therefore, there are 3 main components that I need to perform the tasks above:
1. Sensors (Microphone or Piezoelectric), attach to the knee.
2. Microcontroller (to digitize analog sound signal from the knee, and send to PC).
3. Software interface (to display digitized sound signal waveform in PC and carry out further analysis using MATLAB).

Can you recommend any component from your company which might be helpful for my project? I will purchase the component that you recommend if it is applicable for my project.

Hope to get reply from your company soon.

Thank You.

Regards,
Jerry Choon,
Faculty of Engineering,
University of Malaya.

Not really sure whether the Piezoelectric or microphone is the right sensor for it, you will have to try it out.

There is no direct recommendation as we have yet to explore this type of project. Maybe searching Internet will be more helpful.

I have listed down the components required for my project as below:

Component:
Arduino UNO Rev3 Main Board
Adapter 12V 2A
USB B-Type Cable
Mini Microphone Module
Piezo Transducer
Condenser Mic
Serial LCD (2x16)
Breadboard (Small)
6x6x1 Pusb Button 2 Pins
2-in-1 Casing (optional)

Advice needed. Are these components listed above enough/suitable for my project?

Thank You :D

Hi Idris,

Is there any general difference between Arduino UNO Rev3 and this CT-UNO (Arduino Uno Compatible)?

You can read the description on CT-UNO product page.

If you are Android user, then you don't need to buy another cable, you can utilize micro usb cable with CT-UNO.

Then there also have standard pads (2.54mm pitch to pitch) for those wanted to create their own shield.

And many more upgrade feature compare to Arduino Uno :) and it is cheaper! :D
