Troubleshooting Day

Set - Up


* After soldering every cables to the walkman's board.
* Closing the lid of the walkman.


* Front view.


* Back view.


* Masking taping the cables.


* Cables that are too long are tied together and masking taped to the wall.


* Photoresistors are taped in low position.
* There are 4 photoresistors in total.
* Each walkman is connected to 2 additional speakers and 2 photoresistors.


* Creating patterns on the wall using cables.


* Walkmans placed at the back of the pillar.


* Problem occurs :
- One of the photoresistor doesn't work properly.
- Probable mistake : loose connection, mistake in connection points.


* Zul helped out solving the problem.
* One of the photoresistors works only if its partner (from the same walkman) is working (covered by shadow). 


* The photoresistors work in a very short range, meaning user has to walk really close to it to trigger a change in the sound.
* Zul's idea : make a black tube to narrow down the range, so it won't take lights from everywhere.



* Try out set up.
