Week 8 Journal

Ideation

Tell us about your assignment's idea for this week. Why do you care about this idea? What inspired you? (Please include images or links to sources of inspiration)

assignment

this week's assignment idea was to build a simple smart circuit that contains at least two action components that you can control wirelessly and use either the android GUI or PC GUI to control the action components.

inspiration

I was impressed by the 7 segments so I decided to control it through the mobile and added RGB led to add some fun where with each number that appears on the 7 segment a different color appears.

Tool Chain

Which software/machines/materials did you use in the assignment? Why?

Software

tinkercad: I use tinkercad to simulate the circuit before actually designing it.

Arduino IDE: To write the codes responsible for programming Arduino-compatible boards.

Arduino Bluetooth Control

Design/Preparation Process

Explain the design and/or preparation process of your assignment. How did you use the tool or software to design and/or prepare your assignment before fabrication/implementation?

First: I used (Arduino Uno, RGB LED, Breadboard, 7 Segment, resistor, and Bluetooth module)

Then: I started wiring them according to the following scheme :

I used TINKERCAD to simulate the circuit before I started to Build your circuit on a breadboard and test it.

First: I defined the component I used and which pins they are connected to on the Arduino.

Step 1

Second: in the Void Setup sekchen, I wrote the processes I want to be run for once.

Step 2

Step 3

Third: Void loop

Step 4

Step 5

Step 6

Step 7

Step 8

Step 9

Step 10

Step 11

Development/Implementation Process

Explain the development/implementation process of your assignment. How did you use the machine/tool to manufacture or implement the design of your assignment?

First: I used (Arduino Uno, servo motor, Breadboard, IR sensor, Buzzer, on/ off switch, and LCD)

Then: I started wiring them according to the following scheme:

Overcoming Challenges

What kinds of challenges or problems did you face while doing the assignment, tutorials, or exercises? How did you solve them? Did you ask for help from an instructor or peer? Please provide a link to the tutorial or article that you used to solve your problem (if any)

I faced a problem after connecting the circuit and writing the code, where during the simulation I sold the number 1 it was showing on the 7segment number 1 and the RGB led I was with white enlightenment but when I clicked on the number 2 it was the RGB led with normal red enlightenment but it was showing on the 7segment number 6 inverted

solutions:

I found an error in the code as I give an order to the bulbs of the number that they work, but I do not give an order to the rest of the bulbs that they turn off, so when I press No. 1, after that I press 2, No. 2 appears, and the reversed No. 6 appears because No. 1 is still working, so the two numbers appear together.

Final Project

How can you use the skills and knowledge that you've acquired this week in your final project?

Now I know how to attach the Bluetooth module to my final project.

WOW!

What is the coolest thing that you've learned this week? What is something that you will never forget from this week?

we made a robot arm at the end of the week session and it was very interesting and fun for me..
