Raspberry Pi Smart Target

“The Raspberry Pi Smart Target was designed to be hit by the now famous Flying Monkey, but it can be hit by any other light object such as small ball. When the Target is hit the following events happen: 1. A random sound effect is played through a small set of speakers connected to the Raspberry Pi. 2. A "congratulations" message is displayed in the front LCD screen. 3. The Raspberry Pi grabs a snapshot from a network camera (Dropcam) and is posted to a social network. 4. A random message is posted along with the picture taken by the Dropcam. 5. The whole action is immortalized in the interwebz.” http://www.instructables.com/id/Raspberry-Pi-Smart-Target/ 

Raspberry Pi as low-cost HD surveillance camera

“This instruct able describes how to build a surveillance cam based on a Raspberry Pi micro-computer which records HD video when something moves in the monitored area. Live picture can be viewed from any web browser, even from your mobile while you're on the road. What you will get: See live stream in any web browser from anywhere Record any motion into video file KJIT [16]

ABOUT THE SYSTEM

2. About the System: 2.1 System Requirement Specification

2.1.1 Project Management Approach Waterfall Model has been adopted as an approach for development of project. Most of the requirements of the project are fixed and already thought of functionality updating is expected in future. So Waterfall model is the right approach for our project. The waterfall model is a sequential design process, often used in software development processes, in which progress is seen as flowing steadily downwards through the phases of Conception, Initiation, Analysis, Design, Construction, Testing, Production/Implementation, and Maintenance. The waterfall development model originates in the manufacturing and construction industries: highly structured physical environments in which after-the-fact changes are prohibitively costly, if not impossible. Since no formal software development methodologies existed at the time, this hardware-oriented model was simply adapted for software development. Waterfall model, the following phases are followed in order: 1. Requirements 2. Analysis 3. design 4. coding 5. Testing 6. Acceptance It places emphasis on documentation as well as source code. In less thoroughly designed and documented methodologies, knowledge is lost if team members leave before the project is completed, and it may be difficult for a project to recover from the loss.

•

SD Formatter 4.0 This software formats all SD memory cards, SDHC memory cards and SDXC memory cards. SD Formatter provides quick and easy access to the full capabilities of your SD, SDHC and SDXC memory cards. The SD Formatter was created specifically for memory cards using the SD/SDHC/SDXC standards. It is strongly recommended to use the SD Formatter instead of formatting utilities provided with operating systems that format various types of storage media. Using generic formatting utilities may result in less than optimal performance for your memory cards. The SD/SDHC/SDXC memory cards have a "Protected Area" on the card for the SD standard's security function. The SD Formatter does not format the "Protected Area". Please use appropriate application software or SD-compatible device that provides SD security function to format the "Protected Area" in the memory card.

•

Win32 Disk Imager This program is designed to write a raw disk image to a removable device or backup a removable device to a raw image file. It is very useful for embedded development, namely Arm development projects (Android, Ubuntu on Arm, etc).

ABOUT THE SYSTEM

2.2 Feasibility Study Feasibility studies aim to objectively and rationally uncover the strengths and weaknesses of an existing business or proposed venture, opportunities and threats as presented by the environment, the resources required to carry through, and ultimately the prospects for success. In its simplest terms, the two criteria to judge feasibility are cost required and value to be attained. The assessment is based on an outline design of system requirements, to determine whether the company has the technical expertise to handle completion of the project. Economic Feasibility Economic analysis is the most frequently used method for evaluating the effectiveness of a new system. More commonly known as cost/benefit analysis, the procedure is to determine the benefits and savings that are expected from a candidate system and compare them with costs. If benefits outweigh costs, then the decision is made to design and implement the system. An entrepreneur must accurately weigh the cost versus benefits before taking an action. Cost-based study: It is important to identify cost and benefit factors, which can be categorized as follows: •

Development cost

•

Operating cost

This is an analysis of the costs to be incurred in the system and the benefits derivable out of the system. Time-based study: This is an analysis of the time required to achieve a return on investments. The future value of a project is also a factor.

KJIT [27]

Multipurpose Pi

ABOUT THE SYSTEM

Operational Feasibility Operational feasibility is a measure of how well a proposed system solves the problems, and takes advantage of the opportunities identified during scope definition and how it satisfies the requirements identified in the requirements analysis phase of system development. Schedule Feasibility A project will fail if it takes too long to be completed before it is useful. Typically this means estimating how long the system will take to develop, and if it can be completed in a given time period using some methods like payback period. Schedule feasibility is a measure of how reasonable the project timetable is. Technical Feasibility A large part of determining resources has to do with assessing technical feasibility. It considers the technical requirements of the proposed project. The technical requirements are then compared to the technical capability of the organization. The systems project is considered technically feasible if the internal technical capability is sufficient to support the project requirements.

2.3 Project Planning Project planning is part of project management, which relates to the use of schedules such as Gantt charts to plan and subsequently report progress within the project environment. Initially, the project scope is defined and the appropriate methods for completing the project are determined. Following this step, the durations for the various tasks necessary to complete the work are listed and grouped into a work breakdown structure. The logical dependencies between tasks are defined using an activity network diagram that enables identification of the critical path. Necessary resources can be estimated and costs for each activity can be allocated to each resource, giving the total project cost

KJIT [28]

Multipurpose Pi

ABOUT THE SYSTEM

At this stage, the project plan may be optimized to achieve the appropriate balance between resource usage and project duration to comply with the project objectives. Once established and agreed, the plan becomes what is known as the baseline. Progress will be measured against the baseline throughout the life of the project. Analyzing progress compared to the baseline is known as earned value management. Gantt Charts Gantt Charts are useful tools for analyzing and planning more complex projects. 

Help you to plan out the tasks that need to be completed



Give you a basis for scheduling when these tasks will be carried out



When a project is under way, Gantt charts are useful for monitoring its progress. You can immediately see what should have been achieved at a point in time, and can therefore take remedial action to bring the project back on course. This can be essential for the successful and profitable implementation of the project.



Allow you to plan the allocation of resources needed to complete the project, and help you to work out the critical path for a project where you must complete it by a particular date.



When a project is under way, Gantt Charts help you to monitor whether the project is on schedule. If it is not, it allows you to pinpoint the remedial action necessary to put it back on schedule.

Sequential and parallel activities: An essential concept behind project planning (and Critical Path Analysis) is that some activities are dependent on other activities being completed first. As a shallow example, it is not a good idea to start building a bridge before you have designed it! These dependent activities need to be completed in a sequence, with each stage being more-orless completed before the next activity can begin. We can call dependent activities 'sequential' or 'linear'.

KJIT [29]

Multipurpose Pi

ABOUT THE SYSTEM

Other activities are not dependent on completion of any other tasks. These may be done at any time before or after a particular stage is reached. These are nondependent or 'parallel' tasks. Step 1.List all activities in the plan For each task, show the earliest start date, estimated length of time it will take, and whether it is parallel or sequential. If tasks are sequential, show which stages they depend on. Step 2.Set up your Gantt chart Head - up graph paper with the days or weeks through to task completion. Step 3.Plot the tasks onto the graph paper Schedule them in such a way that sequential actions are carried out in the required sequence. Ensure that dependent activities do not start until the activities they depend on have been completed. Step 4.Presenting the analysis The last stage in this process is to prepare a final version of the Gantt chart. This shows how the sets of sequential activities link together, and identifies the critical path activities. At this stage you also need to check the resourcing of the various activities. While scheduling, ensure that you make best use of the resources you have available, and do not over-commit resource. 

Analysis, development and testing of supporting modules are essential activities that must be completed on time.



Hardware installation and commissioning is not time-critical as long as it is completed before the Core Module Training starts.

3.1 E-R Diagram An entity-relationship diagram (ERD) is a type of data modelling that shows a graphical representation of objects or concepts within an information system or organization and their relationship to one another. An entity-relationship diagram (ERD) is a graphical representation of an information system that shows the relationship between people, objects, places, concepts or events within that system. An ERD is a data modelling technique that can help define business processes and can be used as the foundation for a relational database. Three main components of an ERD are the entities, which are objects or concepts that can have data stored about them, the relationship between those entities, and the cardinality. Which defines that relationship in terms of numbers.

3.5 Class Diagram: A class diagram is an illustration of the relationships and source code dependencies among classes in the Unified Modelling Language (UML). In this context, a class defines the methods and variables in an object, which is a specific entity in a program or the unit of code representing that entity.

In software engineering, a class diagram in the Unified Modelling Language (UML) is a type of static structure diagram that describes the structure of a system by showing the system's classes, their attributes, operations (or methods), and the relationships among objects.

The class diagram is the main building block of object oriented modelling. It is used both for general conceptual modelling of the systematics of the application, and for detailed modelling translating the models into programming code. Class diagrams can also be used for data modeling.[1] The classes in a class diagram represent both the main objects, interactions in the application and the classes to be programmed.A UML use case diagram for the interaction of a client (the actor) and a restaurant (the system)

IMPLEMENTATION

5. Implementation:

5.1 Implementation Environment: Our project is based on embedded system, moreover it is multi user device (User cover both Public utility and commercial Utility usage). User can use any feature whenever they want so for that all the features combined in such a manner that users can use it easily. Multi Users: The environment in our system is Multi User environment. There can be multiple users like Public at home, Workers in industries, Students in schools and colleges, Scientist and researchers at their labs and organizations etc. Multipurpose: A better model is needed so that each user can perform their task easily. Moreover system should be such that it is easily understandable by users so they can use this system with easily and improve their productivity and knowledge. For this we have divided modules in two parts based on operating system used. XBMC for Media Center and Raspbian for Webserver, NAS, Controlling Electronic Devices & Gamming. Implementation phase requires precise planning and monitoring mechanism in order to ensure schedule and completeness.

5.2 Coding Standard: The following guidelines are applicable to all aspects python development: •

Make code as simple and readable as possible. Assume that someone else will be reading your code.

•

Prefer small cohesive classes and methods to large monolithic ones.

•

Use a separate file for each class, struct, interface, enumeration, and delegate with the exception of those nested within another class.

•

Write the comments first. When writing a new method, write the comments for each step the method will perform before coding a single statement. These comments will become

KJIT [74]

Multipurpose Pi

IMPLEMENTATION

the headings for each block of code that gets implemented. •

Use liberal, meaningful comments within each class, method, and block of code to document the purpose of the code.

•

Mark incomplete code with // TODO: comments. When working with many classes at once, it can be very easy to lose a train of thought.

•

Prefer while and for each over other available looping constructs when applicable. They are logically simpler and easier to code and debug.

5.3 GPIO (General Purpose Input Output) The GPIO pins on a Raspberry Pi are a great way to interface physical devices like buttons and LEDs with the little Linux processor. If you’re a Python developer, there’s a sweet library called RPi.GPIO that handles interfacing with the pins. In just three lines of code, you can get an LED blinking on one of the GPIO pins. The R-Pi has 17 GPIO pins brought out onto the header, most have alternated functions other than just I/O, and there are two pins for UART, two for I2C and six for SPI. All the pins can be use for GPIO with either INPUT or OUTPUT, there also internal pull-up & pull-downs for each pin but the I2C pins have and onboard pull-up so using them for GPIO may not work in some cases. Using any of the pins will require extra care, than most Arduino users maybe be used to. These pins are 3V3 not 5V like the AVR chips, and they a directly connected to the Broadcom chip at the heart of the R-Pi. This means there is not protection, if you send 5V down a pin there is a good chance of killing the Pi. There will also be an issue with trying to draw to much power form the pins, according to the data-sheet each pin programmed to current drive between 2mA and 16mA, and it has been warned that trying to draw 16mA from several pins at once could also lead to a damaged Pi. Also from the wiki the "maximum permitted current draw from the 3v3 pin is 50mA" and the "maximum permitted current draw from the 5v pin is the USB input current (usually 1A) minus any current draw from the rest of the board." The current draw for Model B is stated as 700mA so with a 1A power supply this leaves about 300mA to play with. KJIT [75]

Multipurpose Pi

IMPLEMENTATION

Installing RPi.GPIO RPi.GPIO is a small python library that take some of the complexity out of driving the GPIO pins, once install a single LED can be lit with 3 lines of python. Installing the library is almost as simple, either at a text console or using Terminal enter the following

$ wget http://pypi.python.org/packages/source/R/RPi.GPIO/RPi.GPIO-0.1.0.tar.gz $ tar zxf RPi.GPIO-0.1.0.tar.gz $ cd RPi.GPIO-0.1.0 $ sudo python setup.py install

5.4 Tools for Python Code Quality: There are various tools that can help you to check your Python code for PEP8 conformance and general code quality. We recommend using them. •

pep8 checks your Python code against some of the style conventions in PEP 8. Perform style clean-ups on master to help avoid spurious merge conflicts.

•

pylint analyzes Python source code looking for bugs and signs of poor quality.

•

pyflakes also analyzes Python programs to detect errors.

•

flake8 combines both pep8 and pyflakes into a single tool.

•

Syntactic is a Vim plugin with support for flake8, pyflakes and pylint.

TESTING

6.1 TESTING PLAN 

Software Testing has a dual function; it is used to identify the defects in program and it is used to help judge whether or not program is usable in practice. Thus software testing is used for validation and verification, which ensure that software conforms to its specification and meets need of the software customer.



Developer resorted Alpha testing, which usually comes in after the basic design of the program has been completed. The project scientist will look over the program and give suggestions and ideas to improve or correct the design. They also report and give ideas to get rid of around any major problems. There is bound to be a number of bugs after a program have been created.



Analyze and check system representations such as the requirements document, design diagrams and program source code. They may be applied at all stages of the process.

TESTING

6.2 TESTING STRATEGY Unit Testing Software products are normally tested first at the individual component (unit) level. Unit testing (or module testing) is the testing of different units (or modules) of a system in isolation. Integration Testing After testing all the components individually the components are slowly integrated and tested at each level of integration. That is called integration testing. System Testing Finally the fully integrated system is tested that is called system testing.

6.3 TESTING METHODS Statistical Testing Statistical Testing is used to test the program’s performance and reliability and to check how it works under operational conditions. Tests are design to reflect the actual user inputs and their frequency. The stages involved in the statistical analysis for this system are as follows: 

Parameter type mismatches



Parameter number mismatches

Black-Box Testing In Black-Box Testing or Functional Testing, Developers are concerned about the output of the module and software, i.e. whether the software gives proper output as per the requirements or not. In another words, this testing aims to test behavior of program against it specification without making any reference to the internal structure of the internal structure of the program or the algorithms used. Therefore the source code is not needed, and so even purchased modules can be tested. The program just gets a certain input and its functionality is examined by observing the output.

This can be done in the following ways:

KJIT [81]

Multipurpose Pi



Input Interface



Processing



Output Interface

TESTING

The programs get certain inputs. Then the program does its jobs and generates a certain output, which is collected by a second interface. This result is then compared to the expected output, which has been determined before the test.

White Box Testing White box testing is an important primary testing approach. Here code is inspected to see what it does. This test is designed to check the code. Code is tested using code scripts, driver, etc which are employed to directly interface with and drive the code. The tester can analyse code and use the knowledge about the structure of a component to drive the test data.

Performance Testing Performance testing is design to test the runtime performance of the system within the context of the system. This test is performed at module level as well as the as at system level. Individual modules developed by Developers are tested for required performance.

7. Conclusion & Future Work:

7.1 Conclusion: The development of Multipurpose Pi includes so many people like user system developer, user of system and the management, it is important to identify the system requirements by properly collecting required data for its development.

Proper design builds upon this foundation to give a blue print, which is actually implemented by the developers. On realizing the importance of systematic documentation all the processes are implemented using a software engineering approach.

Working in a live environment enables one to appreciate the intricacies involved in the System Development Life Cycle (SDLC) with Water fall model.
