This project involved designing and constructing a device to detect when someone crosses a line while waiting at an ATM, and notify them and the person using the ATM. Components like an Arduino, LCD, and ultrasonic sensor were tested in early prototypes. The device was later modified for improved efficiency by replacing the IR sensor with an ultrasonic sensor. A final version added a stable plastic frame and stronger materials, with components arranged to successfully space people one meter apart and trigger a buzzer and message on the LCD if the line was crossed.

Overview and project aim This project involved the design and construction of a Q-security system device - an excessively complex system of chain reactions engineered to complete a relatively simple task. The primary aim of the task was to design and construct such a device which functioned to successfully detect any body cross the line and inform the dealer as well as the person who crosses the line to backward. Outline of Process and Planning stage Initially, individual components of the device were designed separately. Team members brainstormed and integrated ideas for components. Sketches were created and discussions were held regarding the proposed function of the components and the overall device. Outline of initial design stage and prototype testing Following development of these designs, some components were constructed and tested both individually and in combination with other components. Early prototypes of these components included the use of arduino , lcd and ultrasonic sensor Outline of evolution of the device and modifications After testing of prototypes, the device was modified to improve efficiency and overall functionality. Some components were removed and replaced by more efficient processes, such as the IR sensor was replaced with ultrasonic sensor. Outline of construction and testing of final device (including issues and changes) Statements about final state of device In construction of the final device, some changes were made to improve stability, reliability and effectiveness and to make it more near to the reality. Supportive plastic structures were added to the final device to provide a rigid, stable frame for components, some materials used in the prototype were replaced with stronger, longer lasting materials. A number of existing components were arranged on and around this frame. Summary of results This project successfully make a space between the first person and second person that make a queue at the ATM counter. The space between the ATM and second person is about one meter and it will separated by a single line. If the second person pass across the line while the first person still at the ATM machine, the buzzer will produce a sound and PLEASE MOVE BACKWARD will be displayed at the LCD Outline of predicted final presentation result As such, the performance of the device during formal assessment is expected to be successful, and of a similar time, providing no damage or unknown alterations occurs prior to the final presentation.
