SolutionSafety Motion DetectorWrist device monitors users movementSignals the base station when no movement is detected
6System Overview(Wrist Device)Motion SensorPower SupplyTransceiverMicrocontrollerInterface7Technical and Practical Constraints8Technical Constraints
ConstraintDescriptionNotificationsVisual displays must indicate the safety status based on the users movement. Transmission DistanceThe base station must communicate data with the detection unit up to 200 feet. Battery LifeThe batteries must last for at least 24 hours.Temperature RangeThe SMD must withstand temperatures in the range of -40 to 185 F.
Motion Detector SensitivityMinimal motion, acceleration between -1.5 and +1.5 g0 with minimum increments of 0.1 g0. must be detected along one or more axes.
9Practical ConstraintsTypeNameDescriptionManufacturabilitySizeThe dimensions must be no larger than 3 wide, 3long and 1.5 high
SustainabilityRuggednessThe wearable device must be capable of withstanding everyday use in the field.
10ManufacturabilityDevice must be small in sizeDevice will be no larger than 3 wide, 3 long, and 1.5 highMust be wrist wearable to increase efficiencyMust not interfere with the users work
11SustainabilityMust withstand everyday use in the fieldWater resistantFunction properly in hot or cold weather conditionsDevice encasement durabilityStrong enough to handle accidental impact

NotificationsAccelerationWrist Device: Standstill
While the wrist device is at a standstill, the voltage output of each axis remains constant. The voltage of the z-axis is higher because of gravity pushing down on the top of the accelerometer.23AccelerationWrist Device: Free Fall
The highlighted values represent the wrist device in freefall. The Z-axis voltages were graphically plotted to show constant acceleration.24Range Testing
A range test was done by separating the wrist device from the base station in 50 ft increments to check for proper functionality. Once the constraint of 200 ft was met, additional tests were done in increments of 10 ft to measure the maximum range.25Out of Range TestIf the user is out of range, the notification lights will blink repeatedly. This will continue untilthe devices are back in range to communicate with each other.
