Rationale :

A temperature converter helps in the conversion of the measurement units of the

temperature recorded in a particular unit. Temperature expresses the degree of heat or
cold of a solid, liquid, or gas. Temperature is measured using a thermometer. While
Kelvin (K) is the SI unit of temperature, people generally use Centigrade or Celsius (°C)
and Fahrenheit (°F) to measure temperature.

For example, the lowest practical temperature on Earth is -273.15 degrees Celsius.
Celsius is a measure of temperature. This recording can be represented in Kelvin as 0 K.
We use temperature converter to find the different readings of a given temperature on
different unit measuring scales.

Benefits of the Micro-Project:

A temperature converter helps in the conversion of the measurement units of the

temperature recorded in a particular unit.

Temperature expresses the degree of heat or cold of a solid, liquid, or gas. Temperature
is measured using a thermometer.

While Kelvin (K) is the SI unit of temperature, people generally use Centigrade or Celsius
(°C) and Fahrenheit (°F) to measure temperature.

Course Outcomes Achieved:

a) Develop programs using GUI Framework (AWT and Swing).

b) Handle events of AWT and Swings components.

c) Develop programs to handle events in Java Programming.

Literature Review
The measurement of temperature by using appropriate sensors and controllers is not
only important in environmental or weather monitoring but also crucial for many
industrial processes. This review covers the study of PLC, microcontrollers and sensors
which will be beneficial to readers in understanding the difference between application
of PLC and Microcontrollers in controlling temperature.

Actual Methodology Followed:

Input field for the user to type in their temperature - don't forget to validate that the
input is a number!

Dropdown menu or radio button for the user to choose if they are inputting in Celsius
or Fahrenheit

"Convert" button to trigger the temperature conversion

Display area for the final converted temperature and unit

Output :

Learning Outcome of this Micro-Project:

I have completed this project successfully and have successfully made a simply
implement Temperature Converter. And also used glowing effects successfully.

Applications of this Micro-Project:

  Optionally, Select a scale: Celsius or Fahrenheit.
 Enter a temperature.
 Press the Convert button to see the results.
 The User Interface is a JSF page that asks for a temperature and a scale
(Fahrenheit or Celsius).
 When you click on Convert, the temperature string is passed to the
TemperatureConverter controller (managed) bean.

Conclusion
I have successfully implemented advance java programming language to implement this
project. It was wonderful experiance for me to work on this project.
