COMPUTER INTERFACE: VISUAL BASIC

 

An important part of this project was the integration of software that would facilitate the process of collecting the data after each test. This goal has been achieved by implementing a simple program in Visual Basic, which walks the user through the test, providing images of the orientation the PDA should be and allowing him/her to input relative test information such as product being tested, height of the drop, special conditions and comments, and finally the user can click "pass" or "fail" and the program will lead the user to the next drop. At the end of the entire test, the program prints out all the results in the same format Talla-Tech uses at the moment.
