Lab Project
-----------

Note: This is a group project (group of 2-4).

Develop a product based on an 8051 microcontroller. The only required feature
is a wireless (e.g. bluetooth, GSM, WiFi) interfacing, which can be a user
interface or a module-to-module interface. The wireless data communication must
be bi-directional. Additional controller(s) (e.g. ESP32, Arduino) may be used,
but the core system MUST run on 8051. The use of multiple controllers will be
questioned during Q&A.

Overall evaluation will be based on:
1) Product demonstration (25%)
2) Product brochure/poster (25%)
3) Technical specification @ user manual (25%)
4) Technical competency @ Individual Q&A (25%)

Having aesthetic features (WOW factor) in your application/product
will assist towards getting better grades. However, please note that your
product needs to actually WORK (function as expected) for the WOW factor to
be considered. 

Each group will be assigned a group ID. To make the product ‘realistic’, each
group should create a virtual company that has the group ID in its name (e.g.
SmartY1, X1Box) to brand the product. Consequently, the product should also
have a name (e.g. SmartY1 System-2000, X1Box Tool-Z1). Note that this is not
a requirement, rather a suggestion that hopefully can inspire development of
an interesting product.

Deliverables:

- email submission (24-hour BEFORE product demonstration)
  = product brochure/poster (softcopy)
  = technical specification @ user manual (softcopy)

- demonstration of a working product (@application)
  = please provide a 'commercial'-grade product brochure/poster (hardcopy)

- individual Q/A for technical competency (post-demonstration)
  = mainly for individual evaluation

DUE: WK14/14 (Lab Session)
