STATE TRANSITION DIAGRAM
Introduction
The report is prepared for the development of a state transition diagram after analyzing
the functionality of Oral B toothbrush and verification of the inputs. There are different types of
operational modes of the tooth brush for example mechanism of live feedback integrated with the
IC of the toothbrush used for improvement of brushing experience with the use of smart guide
application. With the smart guide application the toothbrush can be controlled and set to use as
different modes and improve the assistance for the user. Simulink is used as a simulation
environment in MATLAB for the development of the state transition diagram and test it for
analyzing proper working of the electric brush. The graphs generated with the application of
Simulink is used for interpretation because they are simple and have thorough visualization of
the curve. The different states of the toothbrush is considered and some of the steps that are
mandatory is selected for the analysis of the transition. The operation of the provided oral B
5000 toothbrush is quite similar with most of the model. The toothbrush is considered as one of
the best electric brush of its class and it is also recommended by multiple dentist since it has the
ability to eliminate most of the dental problems after using it continuously for a week.
Oral B Braun 5000 functionality and smart guide
The oral b 5000 have the following functionality such as:
 Simplified charging procedure of the electric toothbrush since the plug of the toothbrush
is needed to be plugged in to an electric socket and an indicator light shows the status of
charging. When the brush gets fully charged the green light glows and it can work for 2
days for a default brushing of 2 times a day.

 Two modes are present in the brush i.e. two minute and professional mode. The
professional mode is used for changing the interval of time for brushing and can be used
with the other modes and operated for a period of 30 seconds. The daily cleaning mode
on the brush can be used for 45 sec and the green indicator in the brush starts flashing
after the expiry of the time and a shutter sound is played. For the two minute timer mode
the operation is similar but in this mode the time for brushing cannot be modified.
 The experience of brushing can be fetched using a computer system at a real time by
connecting the Bluetooth sensor installed in the brush that sends continuous data. The
smart screen can also provide suggestion about brushing.
 The most beneficial functionality is the additional pressure feature which is used for
detecting excess pressure applied by the user during brushing and lights the red light and
generates a warning message on the smart screen. The feature can improve the safety and
if the toothbrush operates in daily clean or deep clean mode it is switched to sensitive
mode.
