Weekly Task Alerting System

This document describes a Weekly Task Alerting System that alerts users to important tasks due each day of the week. The system uses a light sensor to detect the rising sun each morning and count the days, advancing the counter by one each day until seven days are counted. On the appropriate day, an astable multivibrator produces a 2Hz signal to flash an LED as a reminder until the user presses a reset switch. The system is designed to help users keep track of tasks without worrying about missing important appointments or deadlines.

Weekly Task Alerting System

Modern day-to-day life of people in major cities is very demanding and the
schedules are equally hectic. In such times, it is practically impossible to keep a
track of all the activities/ appointments. Many a times, it happens that we may miss
an important task; for example: taking medicines, attending a meeting, returning
library books, paying the bills etc. And this cycle can keep going on endlessly. The
human mind is not designed to multitask, it needs to work things out one at a time.
This requires us to maintain our focus on the task at hand, and as a result other
important things take a backstage and some may even slip out of our minds. In
order to address this problem, we have come up with a Weekly Task Alerting
System. This system is designed to alert the user of all the important tasks that are
due on a specific day, every week. So now, the user can carry on with his/her life
without any worries. This circuit can count the days. The rising of the Sun is
detected by a light sensor. The voltage level at gate connected to it goes low. Due
to this, output also goes high which eventually makes the counter IC advance by
one count. This way each day is counted. Similarly, the counter advances by one
every morning until it counts seven days. An Astable Multivibrator produces 2Hz
frequency to flash LED as a reminder. The LED flashes until the reset switch is
pressed momentarily. When the counter IC resets, its output becomes low and it’s
ready to begin day counting for the next week.
