 CHAPTER I

INTRODUCTION

First, the study will be focusing on the convenience of the

sensor curtain rod. Also, it will promote the convenience made by

the product.

History has shown that advancements in materials science

and engineering have been important drivers in the development of

sensor technologies. For instance, the temperature sensitivity of

electrical resistance in a variety of materials was noted in the

early 1800s and was applied by Wilhelm von Siemens in 1860 to

develop a temperature sensor based on a copper resistor. The high

resonance stability of single-crystal quartz, as well as its

piezoelectric properties, have made possible an extraordinarily

wide range of high performance, affordable sensors that have

played an important role in everyday life and national defense.

More recently, a new era in sensor technology was ushered

in by the development of large-scale silicon processing,

permitting the exploitation of silicon to create new methods for

transducing physical phenomena into electrical output that can be

readily processed by a computer. Ongoing developments in

materials technology will permit better control of material

properties and behavior, thereby offering possibilities for new

sensors with advanced features, such as greater fidelity, lower

cost, and increased reliability. National Academies of Sciences,

Engineering, and Medicine. 1995. Expanding the Vision of Sensor

Materials. Washington, DC: The National Academies Press.

Sensors capture and translate their physical attributes into

observable electrical impulses from chosen surroundings.

Temperature, mass, speed, pressure, or heat bodies such as people

are included as these attributes. A microprocessor processes the

electrical impulses to provide outputs that correspond to a set

of measures. The system sends the output to the recipients in the

designated devices. A system can use many sensors with varied

capacities, depending on functional complexity and increasing

functional requirements.

Sensors increase the capability of the world around us to

observe and report. They are made to work to make human lives

considerably more accessible and better in nearly all fields.

Setting up moods, switching on water heaters, guaranteeing

safety, tracking equipment, and more are some of them. Sensors

allow better visibility incorporate processes and workflows,

analyze patterns of employees' work and detect environmental

conditions in facilities on a larger scale. These can monitor,

regulate, and increase operational efficiency in business

management.

A sensor is a device, module, machine, or subsystem that

detects events or changes in its environment and relays the

information to other electronics, most commonly a computer

processor. A sensor converts physical phenomena into a measurable

digital signal, which can then be displayed, read, or processed

further. The figure illustrates the working of a sensor. Various

specialists and researchers classify sensors in a variety of

ways. In the first classification, the sensors are divided into

Active and Passive categories. To work, active sensors need an

external excitation signal or a power signal.

We live in an information age when we expect to know

everything right away – and to be able to access information from

anywhere, at any time. Sensor technology can be used in various

ways in everyday life, particularly in smart homes, ranging from

sensor-controlled burglary and fire prevention to heating and

lighting management to modern household control. Cleaning robots

can clean a house on their own, regardless of the type of

flooring. Sensors and cameras guarantee that the vacuum cleaner

cleans the house from every aspect and avoids impediments. Wiper

and window cleaning robots, as well as autonomous lawnmowers,

operate on the same concept. Water sensors can help prevent

future water damage from washing machines and dishwashers in the

home. Sensors will continue to grow into every part of our life

as technology advances. Sensors are used worldwide to improve

transportation, medical treatment, nanotechnology, mobile

devices, virtual and augmented reality, and artificial

intelligence (AI).

Additionally, it will help the users to see how do they

make the product. Moreover, it can be a stepping stone for them

to innovate another product by making the product as a basis.

To add, the study will prove on how to reach the

convenience level made by the product. Perhaps, it can deal a

great satisfaction to whoever tries to imitate it. The product is

really relevant to the time right now. Sensors have become an

indispensable part of modern living.

STATEMENT OF THE PROBLEM

The study aims to anticipate on how the product works.

Also, the study seeks to answer the following questions:

 What is the convenience level of curtain rod in dorms or

boarding houses?

 What are the materials used in doing the product?

 How is the product done?

  How does this product promote convenience?

HYPOTHESIS

THE CURTAIN ROD WILL NOT WORK UNLESS IT WAS NOT HIT BY THE AMOUNT

NEEDED TO MAKE THE SENSOR DO ITS WORK. WHEREIN, THE INDEPENDENT

VARIABLE IS THE TEMPERATURE AND THHE DEPENDET VARIABLE IS THE

SENSOR.

SIGNIFICANCE OF THE STUDY

This study focuses on the convenience level of each

consumers or product users. Therefore, these are the

beneficiaries: boarding students, owners of boarding houses and

dormitories, businessmen, curtain sellers

For the boarding students not to be wasting their time on

opening their curtains, instead, they’ll use the time to do other

things. Also, it will help them to beat their laziness to wake up

because the sunlight will be seen once the curtain are open in

the morning.

For the owners of boarding houses or dormitories makes an

advantage to see that their things are innovative.

For the businessmen to have an idea on how to copy and sell

the product. Moreover, they can use it to innovate the product.

 For the curtain sellers to have an idea on how to sell

their product by making use of this product as an advertising way

to get people’s attention.

Scope and Limitation

The study solely focuses on chosen boarding houses and

dorms here in San Fermin, Cauayan City, Isabela. Thus, the study

will try to explain on how the product is done and on how the

product works.
