Recently, Pasir Gudang and haze disasters have affected many victims. One of the
reasons these tragedies cannot be detected early on is because there are no instruments that can
detect or monitor the air easily. The conventional air quality monitoring systems such as gas
analysers, have high cost associated with both installation and maintenance. This product is
made to specifically tackle these problems.

This product can measure real time parameters such as Ozone (O3), Sulphur Dioxide
(SO2), Nitrogen Dioxide (NO2), Carbon Monoxide (CO) and Particulate Matters (PM2.5 and
PM10). With these parameters monitored, we can detect the haze or air related disaster earlier.
We can make certain actions earlier to control the disaster. By using this product, we can obtain
air quality data such as Air Pollution Index (API).

This product is proven to be correct by confirming that the calibration of NO2, SO2, CO
and O3 are well correlated to the data obtained from the conventional air quality monitoring
analysers.

Besides, this product is also applying the Internet of Things (IoT) concept. The data
containing the parameters calculated will be sent remotely to a web server such as Google
Drive or Dropbox. A mobile application is also made to incorporate the data taken from the
product to create an easier way of accessing the data.

Moreover, this product can be installed and powered by solar energy. A photovoltaic
system can be made to power this product by using 4 components which are the solar panel,
deep cycle battery, charge controller and inverter.

The target market for this product are the Department of Environment (DOE), Majlis
Perbandaran and Environment-related companies who want to monitor or research the air
quality.

In conclusion, this product is very beneficial and urgently needed by our society as it
can monitor and detect the early sign of air-related disaster such as haze. We can make
immediate response to control the disaster on the early stage.

By Mohd Sujari bin Jemeran

The conventional way of cutting palm fruit is very tiring and exhausting. The usage of
advanced technologies can be costly in term of buying and maintenance. Moreover, the
conventional way of cutting palm fruit can be a very huge burden to the elders and can cause a
huge toll to our body. Smart Palm Sickle was made to specifically tackle these problems.

This product is using the impact force as its concept of cutting and harvesting the palm
fruit. By using the concept of impact, the cutting and harvesting will become lighter and easier
to the workers. Even the elders can use this product without exerting much force as it is using
gravity force to create a huge impact.

This product is low in cost and can be obtained with only RM250 as compared to the
advanced technology product which can cost us thousands of ringgit. The material used for this
product is aluminium as it is lightweight. The weight of this product does not exceed 1kg. It is
very light and easy to use.

The blade is joint by welding because if we use screw or other joint, the joint is not
strong enough and can be loose. The brand that is used for the blade is camel which is a very
good brand and has a good quality and lifespan. This product has a 10 months warranty which
is very good for a new product.

The target market for this product are the farmers and the owner of palm fruit plantation.
This product is very beneficial to the country as it can increase the productivity and
effectiveness of the worker while decreasing the workload and force exerted by the workers.
