Dec0910 Science Center
Phase 3
Hussain Almosa Karen Littlejohn
Joey NirschlHassan Hassan
For the Science Center, our client is looking for interactive workstations that would demonstrate to the audience how the concepts from the ECpE curriculum at ISU can help solve real world challenges to assure a better and more sustainable future.
Problem Statement
Any visitors to the Computer, Electrical, and Software Engineering departments.
• Perspective Students• Alumni• Company Representatives• Outreach events
Audience
Piezoelectric Floor - To demonstrate that we can harness the mechanical energy from unconventional sources, such as people, in the form of electrical energy Sequential Programming - To demonstrate and create more understanding of the concept of programming
Concepts
Focus: Energy Sustainability
Approach: We will build an interactive floor that utilizes the concept of piezoelectricity to demonstrate to the audience that we can capture mechanical energy from our bodies to generate clean, renewable electrical energy.
Piezoelectric Floor - Design
System requirements Key Functional Requirements:
◦ The floor shall generate enough current to power a small LED bulb
◦ The floor shall support a weight of up to 250 lb
◦ The floor shall be raised from the room floor
System requirements Key Non-Functional Requirements:
◦ The floor shall be able to be moved to another room if needed
◦ The displays shall be visually appealing
◦ The floor module shall be quickly understandable and easy to use

Approaches - Overview
Floor with Separate Visual Display
• Blocks with Built-In Audio-Visual Display
Approaches – Evaluation
Floor with Separate Visual Display◦Pros
Suitable for wider audience
Supports different display options
◦Cons Captures less
energy Less interactive Display is
disconnected from floor
• Blocks with Built-In Audio-Visual Display– Pros
• More interactive• Captures more energy• Compact system
– Cons• Not suitable for some
audience segments• Does not support
other display options• Potentially hazardous

Sub-Systems Tiles Compression System Subfloor Piezo Generators Audio-Visual Display Electrical Circuitry
Lexan Polycarbonate Sheets◦ Clear◦ Durable
Vendor: Ridout Plastics
Sub-Systems - Tiles
Two Alternatives◦ Spring System
Advantage: Could be mounted firmly to subfloor
◦ Foam Blocks Advantage: Smooth
Compression/ Decompression
Sub-Systems – Compression System
Wooden Subfloor◦Divided into 9 blocks◦Center block will be
covered and will not be compressible
◦Each of 8 block surrounding blocks will be compressible and will house piezo generators, compression system, audio-visual displays, and accompanying circuits
Sub-Systems - Subfloor
Sub-Systems - Piezo Generators Vendor: Noliac Inc.
Ceramic Multilayer Generators (CMG) are built up with a number of thin ceramic layers sandwiched between internal electrodes, resulting in a low output voltage but high current compared to conventional single layer piezoelectric generators.
Custom ProductWorked with similar team in Denmark to successfully generate 0.13µA by applying hand pressure to 4 piezo generators. CMG size: 5mmx5mmx2mm, 60V.
Visual◦High Brightness Color LED
Vendor: Kingbright USA 120°viewing angle Luminous Intensity: 1200-1450 Available in blue, green, and red Operating current: 120mA
Audio◦One Central Speaker
Powered separately
◦Pre-Programmed Sound Modules Vendor: Zhen Xiang
Sub-Systems – Audio-Visual Display
Each of the 8 block will house one generator/ display system, which will require separate circuitry.
Currently communicating with Noliac’s R&D department to determine number, sizes, appropriate circuits, and estimated cost of piezo generators required for our application
Sub-Systems – Electrical Circuitry
Test Plan Structural Analysis
◦ Test cell structure for ability to support maximum weight
Functional/Performance Testing◦ Test functionality and performance of all 8 piezo
generators and audio-visual displays by placing weights on each cell
Sequential Programming - Design
System requirements Key Functional Requirements:
◦ The Programming Module shall allow the user to order a set of commands
◦ The Programming Module shall give feedback on command order upon request
◦ The Programming Module shall allow the only administrator users to configure the volume used by the module
System requirements Key Non-Functional Requirements:
◦ The Programming Module shall be user friendly ◦ The Programming Module shall be quickly
understandable and easy to use without a demo ◦ The Programming Module shall give the user a taste
of programming
