 NJIT BME 698:012 Embedded Systems Final Project Report

1 Project Description
Include a paragraph that describes what the project does. This is like the “Features” part of
a product description that you see on a website – it is your “sales pitch” about why someone
should buy your product. Here is an example of one:

http://www.favoriteplus.com/handheld-ecg-ekg-monitor.php

It does not describe HOW the product accomplishes this.

2 High Level Design/Architecture/Block Diagram

The product architecture contains a block diagram similar to what many of you included in
your proposals. It often shows separate physical elements and can be very detailed. It
should also show the major functional elements of the product if one physical element does
more than one thing.

Your architecture section should also contain a discussion of the type of program control you
will use (e.g., round robin with interrupts), a list of the digital and analog port pins you will
use, and a list of any timers and interrupts and what they will be used for.

Block Diagram

3 Detailed Design
This describes item by item HOW the product does what it does. These are the gory details
– what parts you are using (with part numbers), schematics, any other block diagrams,
etc., software flowcharts, etc.

This project report has many of the elements you need in your report:
