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)

Communicate wirelessly with a Smart Circuit via a Graphical User Interface (GUI) on your phone or PC.

Description:

Build a simple smart circuit that contains at least TWO action components that you can control wirelessly.
Use either the Android GUI or PC GUI to control the action components

Technical Requirements:

The smart circuit contains at least TWO action components connected to an Arduino UNO board (Include a wiring diagram from Tinkercad, Fritzing, or any other tool). ALL action components are acceptable EXCEPT for single color LEDs
The smart circuit communicates wirelessly via a Bluetooth module to a PC or phone
The smart circuit is programmed using Arduino C to perform serial communication (Provide a screenshot of your Arduino C code and *.ino code file)
A Graphical User Interface (GUI) on Phone or PC is used to send data to Arduino to control the action components
The smart circuit is wired and tested with an actual Arduino board and electronic components on a breadboard (Provide a video recording of the final outcome)
The smart circuit is functional and does its intended objective

Despacito Code with Buzzer and LED

Link: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=jrL8mz-UvmE

Inspiration

I wanted to create a song/ multiple songs that can be played using Buzzer and the lights which are interacting with the song to just act as a disco nightlife :D Let's MAKE SOME NOISE BY THE END OF THE MAKER DIPLOMA!

so i connected a buzzer to arduino and RGB LED to control them with Bluetooth Module HC-O5 (Via Arduino Bluetooth Controller Androis application)

Tool Chain

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

I used Tinker Cad to simulate the circuit design of the bLuetooth module HC05, RGB LED, and pIEZO

Arduino UNO

Adapter 5 volts to supply the arduino with power supply instead of laptop after uploading the arduino code

Bluetooth Controller Module HC-05 which is connected to android through bluetooth

The RGB LED used as an output component to change its color based on the scripted code

Jumpers are the wires type used for connections

220 ohm resistors are used to protect the RGB LED from excessive voltage.

Biezo Buzzer used to produce sound of songs and tones

Arduino Bluetooth Controller android app download it from : https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.broxcode.arduinobluetoothfree&hl=ar&gl=US

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?

Tinker Cad simulation of RGB LED, PIEZO BUZZER and HC05 Bluetooth Controller

The wiring of the output and input components

The Tinker Cad Simulation

First:

1) The connection of the Piezo Buzzer (output 1) . It has anode (+ve) the tallest arm connected to pin 8 in Arduino and the Cathode(-ve) connected to the common ground GND in arduino (Through the breadboard).

2) The Arduino is connected to the positive +5v and negative GND (Common ground in the breadboard) to supply the components with the voltage power supply.

3) The RGB LED has 4 pins ( Red, Cathode, Blue, and Green) are connected to arduino through pins (9,common ground, 10, and 11) respectively.

4) The HC-05 Bluetooth Module has pins ( VCC, GND, TX, RX) is connected to the arduino ( 5v, common ground, RX, TX) respectively. And we need to make sure that the RX is connected to the TX in the arduino while the TX is connected to the RX in the arduino.

Text Code Idea:

1) Deifne some tones downloaded them from (https://drive.google.com/drive/folders/1KLxsYMhxKcrYebu6URIVcto2w0aXARA2 )

2) I define that pin 8 is the piezo output and 9,10,11 are outputs of the RGB LED.

3) then i paired the bluetooth module with the android mobile and open the arduino bluetooth controller app to connect the HC05 module.

4) I confugured the buttons inputs to be (A,B,C,D,E,and F)

a) Button (A): turns the RGB LED to white color (high red, green, and blue) and the piezo to high.

a) Button (B): runs despacito tone and the RGB LED green, and yellow by the beats

a) Button (C): runs airtel tone and the RGB LED to blue

a) Button (D): turns the piezo high and the RGB LED to red

a) Button (E): turns the piezo high and the RGB LED to violette

a) Button (F): turn all the colors to low and the piezo to low

First : Arduino main code before inserting melodies/tones

(1)

input string function for the bluetooth controller input
define the pin modes outputs
serial function to check the output in monitor

(2)

input string A controls RGB LED to be white
turns on the piezo pin 8
turns 9,10,11 which gives white color
input string B controls RGB LED PIN 10 to be GREEN
turns on the piezo pin 8

(3)

input string C controls RGB LED PIN 9 to be BLUE
turns on the piezo pin 8
input string D controls RGB LED PIN 11 to be RED
turns on the piezo pin 8

(4)

input string F turns of RGB LED PIN 9,10,11 to be LOW with no color
turns off the piezo pin 8

Then I inserted the melodies that contain tone commands from ((https://drive.google.com/drive/folders/1KLxsYMhxKcrYebu6URIVcto2w0aXARA2) and the tone command's parameter is as follows tone(output pin of Piezo_8, frequency of the tone in hertz, duration of the tone in milliseconds)

1) AIRTEL TONE SCRIPT in button C, I COPIED IT and inserted it instead of the output pin line of piezo https://drive.google.com/drive/folders/1mg9E1Rw-pRVlok7i65C5ZxvbEzKBiJ_z?usp=sharing

2) Despacito tone script in button B, I COPIED IT and inserted it instead of the output pin line of piezo https://drive.google.com/drive/folders/1JOrQ6CL2uCya7n6LPDQf5W5vWZWC-v9-?usp=sharing

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)

1) I have to wait till the tone end and then i can press the other button, which will play another tone; it cannot be interrupted at the middle i have asked a youtuber (can i play more than one note and shuffle easily through buttons ?) and he responded ("Unfortunately, no - the program runs sequentially, and even if you were to attach multiple speakers, you could not use the "Tone" command to create multiple notes - one note has to stop before the next can sound. )( (Tech at Home Arduino Channel) https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=l4LRhgignoA&t=3s (You can connect to him through his instagram channel via story questions and answers https://www.instagram.com/tech_at_home/?hl=en)

2) The hc05 module is connected to +5v in arduino not 3.3v as it doesn't work or read by the bluetooth finder in any android device.

Final Project

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

1) I have learnt how to use the arduino in the biezo output and how to make the controlling wireless through arduino bluetooth controller.

2) I will use this connection in my final project as i will use the blooming effect in moving the parts of the lighting element in response to the user motion in the room, and the bluetooth controller to manually adjust this aoutput actions.

3) I learned how to overcome challenges through trials and errors and resolve the issue by using serial monitors and the avometers along with resolving some bugs related to a missing syntax in the code with some faith that I can do it.

WOW!

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

Arduino Processing this week was an additional information which inspired me and i was eager to learn how the applications can be translated to be used in PC and the extra videos have shown how to do so.
