Week 12

In this week, I have make a research about the benefits and contribution.

If review back to objective, this project were to introduce the Arduino Microcontroller technology. The development of this technology is important because the application that use in Arduino Microcontroller is not difficult if compare to the other microcontroller programmed. This research study will involve more on the reducing the cost of project and simply provide much more easier coding program to the making of this medical device.

The contribution of this development: 1. The Arduino is open-source program and the coding is based on C or C++ language. 2. The major component use is more prefer to hardware follow software. 3. Performing a cost-benefit analysis study - cost is lower if compared to the cost in various industries or sectors. 4. The system development capability can be estimated and analyze. 5. Can improves the development of the system performances and sensitivity.
