Description
Summary:Muslims need to perform Solat (Muslim's prayers) no matter of where they are, even in moving vehicles such as airplanes which is difficult to determining the prayer times due to high velocity of the airplane and its orientation. To our knowledge, there are no such portable equipments available to determine the realtime prayer times. This project is design to develop an innovative system for Muslims to identify prayer times which is determine the real-time of prayer times using Personal Digital Assistant (PDA) / Pocket PC with Global Positioning System (GPS) capability. Graphical User Interface (GUI) based software using Microsoft Visual Basic.NET has been developed which can determine current prayer times automatically for users, who are on moving vehicles. The (GPS) receiver will capture information with regards to the user's current location, and then information will be synchronized by this software in order for the whole system to be operated correctly. The beneficial of the GPS is utilized in this system in order to obtain the accurate location of the observant even they are on moving vehicles. This project divided into six sub menus which is contains Prayer Times, Qiblat, Local Time, Directional Finder, Location Info and Calendar in the same PDA. These projects concentrate to develop sub menu for Prayer Times, Local Time and Location Info. The others sub menu can be reach in the thesis by Noor Badariah Bt Asan title "Automatic Qiblat Direction Using PDA GPS" which will explain about it. This project was developed to assist Muslims by providing them with accurate information that can help to perform daily duty in a proper manner.
