Challenging Engineering Problems with Detailed Answers

Objectives, Criteria and Constraints Introduction about the project. List the objectives of doing this Project. List the criteria and constraints. Besides the technical constraints, you have to include at least three of the following constraints: Public health, safety, welfare, as well as, global, cultural, social, environmental, and economic factors. 4. Automatic Street Light Controller Most of the street lights are manually controlled by human operators, who perform the task of turning street lights on-off. Failing to turn on lights on time might result in an increased crime rate or wastage of electric power if lights are not turned off on time. As an engineer, you are required to solve this problem by designing a circuit that will automatically turn on a LED if it is not very dark (still little bright) and turn on another LED if it is darker (no brightness). The designed system should meet the following conditions: a. Follow the engineering design process steps throughout the project. b. Use at least two Op-Amps in the design. c. You are not allowed to use any type of microcontrollers. d. The output action/indicator may be LEDs and each of them turns on when measured light value falls below its threshold value. e. Take into consideration that suitable currents should be applied for each element/sensor/actuator in your circuit, otherwise they may not work well or they may burn out; also, if the current exceeds the max allowed current for the LED, it will burn out after some
