Zi Hui's contributions on research

1.    I researched the lift system process when the cabin is overloaded by searching how the lift overload system works on Google Scholar.

2.    I researched how lifts detect the weight within the cabin and found out the usage of load cells on lifts to detect lift overload through articles and journals.

3.    I thought about the practicality of using thermal imaging sensors as our solution, hence I researched on usage of thermal imaging sensors to identify human presence based on body heat radiating

4.    I also researched how smart cameras capture human presence and calculate the number of people based on the number of heads and shoulders through Google Scholar and reliable articles.

5.    I researched how passive infra-red operates and the usage of Passive infra-red in detecting motion in enclosed environments.

6.    Drafted up on the Problem statement.

7. I researched the statistics such as the number of lifts Otis has maintained and explained the benefits Elevatenow can offer to Otis in overall energy saving and user experience.

    Thanks, Zihui! You certainly have the "what" described, but not the how. Could you explain?

Zi Hui's introductory letter (Updated as of 23/11/2023)

 Subject: Zi Hui’s self introductory letter   Dear Prof Blackstone,   Good day to you Professor. I am Wong Zi Hui, a mechanical engineering undergraduate student from class S21. Prior to admitting into Singapore Institute of Technology, I graduated with a diploma in aerospace electronics in Temasek Polytechnic. My interest in engineering started when I was learning Design and Technology (D&T) as one of the school subjects back in secondary school. The hands-on activities where I get to create and craft movable mechanisms using simple rotary methods sparked my interest in engineering. Wanting to learn more about engineering, I chose to study engineering at a diploma level and subsequently, at an undergraduate level. I enjoy rollerblading since I was 8, turning this hobby into a side hustle, I am working part time as a rollerblading instructor. And the biggest challenge I face as an instructor is explaining to younger students how to execute specific move in...

Zi Hui's reader's response Draft 3

In the article “10 Reasons Why The Hyundai Kona Electric Is Better Than The Tesla Model 3” (Moore, 2023), the KONA Electric Vehicle (EV) offers a range of four distinct regenerative braking settings, spanning from level zero to three. The smart regenerative braking system employs its onboard radar sensor to automatically adjust the amount of regenerative braking according to different road conditions such as changes in steepness on roads or traffic conditions ahead. This allows the state of charge of the vehicle to be maintained at a healthy level. Secondly, the KONA also has “one-paddle mode” which allows users to stop the vehicle without using conventional brakes. The smart regenerative system enhances the KONA electric vehicle in terms of energy conservation and efficiency. Additionally contributing to greener transport emissions, which is one step towards curbing global warming.  The KONA has regenerative braking from level zero to three, with level zero having no regenerativ...
