Project “Water Beep” is a time-based notification system designed to trigger three distinct buzzer pulses every 30 minutes. The development began with a circuit simulation in Tinkercad to validate electrical connections and logic, ensuring the buzzer operated correctly on Pin 8 before any physical components were handled.
The prototyping phase involved setting up the physical hardware on a breadboard, creating a stable ground bus, and finalizing the wiring. I then moved to the Arduino IDE, where I implemented a non-blocking timing solution using the millis() function instead of delay(), which keeps the system precise and responsive over long durations.
After uploading the code, I conducted rigorous testing to verify that the 30-minute interval remained consistent without temporal drift. The project successfully bridged the gap from virtual simulation to a functional, reliable physical device, serving as a robust foundation for future automation tasks.
