that activity * Calculate the basal metabolic rate (BMR) for the individual * Subtotal the total caloric values for the day * Combine the physical activity and the BMR to determine overall caloric burn for the day * Display a daily summary for the user to outline level of success OVERVIEW This program was developed to provide the user a tool to monitor and calculate a caloric surplus or deficit for the day for an individual user. What makes this program different from many others

It is a visible light communication system that uses light from light-emitting diodes (LEDs) as a medium to deliver networked, (instead of radio frequency waves) that is part of the Optical Wireless Communications technologies, which carries much more information, and has been proposed as a solution to the RF-bandwidth limitations. Also deliver mobile, high-speed communication in a similar manner as Wi-Fi and is bidirectional. The Professor Harald Haas of the University of Edinburg and his team

What everyday changes, if any, might you make to increase the amount of energy expended in your day-to-day activities? To increase the total amount of energy expended in daily activities the time and amount of daily active exercises must be increased.

Importance of Energy For plant Earth, the Sun is the main source for all energy. It is the main essential thing that provides us with light, warmth and energy. Some organisms, such as plants and algae, create their own food using the sun as their main source of energy. In turn the fuel the rest of the world by creating energy for animals and humans after being consumed. They also remove carbon dioxide from the air and replenish oxygen for us to breath. This process, through which this energy is harnessed

is “the conversion of light energy into chemical energy by living organisms”. The raw materials used in this process are carbon dioxide and water; the energy source used is sunlight and the end products are oxygen and carbohydrates. This process can be thought of as the most biochemical pathway, since nearly all life on Earth is dependent either directly or indirectly on it. A solar cell is “any device that directly converts the energy in light into electrical energy through the process of photovoltaics”

Tuckman’s Model of Group Development Forming: in which the group is just coming together. It is often characterized by shyness, uncertainty and diffidence among the members, although extravert members may rapidly assume some kind of leadership.

Project evaluation I think over the course of this unit I have learnt a lot, not only in technique and skill at taking photographs, but I have also learnt quite a lot about organisation and time management. Things such as light painting with torches I had never even heard of, let alone know how to do, and other things like panning and creating movement blur are things that I now know and can use in the future. Plus now that I know a lot more about photo-taking techniques I can improve on them and
