Identify the Problem – The Engineering Design Process

Identify the Problem

Even though earthquakes are not that common in everyday life, when they do actually occur, they could be very dangerous and deadly. Lots of people do not realize there is an earthquake just before it happens, and are not prepared for it, resulting in injury or death. Also, not everyone has an earthquake detector. On the February advisory, after I was told that we had to design a smart device that could actually help people out with micro-bits, I came up with many ideas, but eventually stuck onto an earthquake detector, which could be very useful to alert people when a sizable earthquake strikes. Once my coded micro-bit detects vibrations given off by the earthquake, it would immediately start beeping, alerting people to get to cover.
