==midterm proposalMidterm Proposal==
After several unsuccessful attempts to find a suitable heater for my original proposal, I've decided to abandon that one and start a new proposal. This one was inspired by my nephew when I saw him playing with water guns. Most simple water guns do not produce sounds. I also realized that children often add their own sound effects when they pretend to shoot at some target. I want to add sound as part of the gun so that the toy becomes more interactive; children's make believe noise becomes more or less a reality in which they can actually hear some sort of noise coming from the gun rather than simply existing in their minds. The procedure will be simple. I will be using water toy gun, 12VDC piezo buzzer, 9V battery, and a on-(off) switch, and then implementing all of this onto the gun somehow. The buzzer will be activated when the button is pressed as the trigger is pulled down. When released, the buzzer will stop buzzing.
