CAPSTONE PROJECT

The Capstone project at UTM Johor Bahru focused on developing an innovative robotic system designed to deter monkeys from entering gardens. This project, conducted during the 2023/2024 academic year, involved creating a robot that used sound as a harmless deterrent, ensuring both garden protection and monkey safety. The project integrated IoT technology, allowing for remote control and real-time notifications via a mobile app.

ABOUT

During my academic journey at UTM Johor Bahru, I had the opportunity to lead a Capstone project aimed at addressing the challenge of monkey intrusions in gardens. Collaborating with a talented team, we developed a robotic solution that combined cutting-edge technology with practical application. The project not only showcased our technical skills but also emphasized the importance of teamwork and innovation in solving real-world problems.
