This Week's assignment
Circuits wth Arduino UNO
Build and Program a smart circuit using an Arduino UNO which reads a signal from an input component to control an action component using Code Blocks
Mercury Tilt Sensor
The first time saw a tilt sensor in my hand (the first day of Maker diploma), immediately I fell in love with it.
I worked for around 4 years with tilt sensors without Knowing how they work or what it looks like inside. 🤯🤯💙💙
I'd love to use a Tilt sensor
I'd love to use a Tilt sensor
so
*I searched for Projects that have tilt sensors on them.
*Taking into account the integration between the sensor and the Arduino.
* Hit the requirements that I have Single Input at least and single action at least either.

Action Component
White LED lights up when mercury in the tilt sensor is in a normal state.
Blue LED lights up when mercury in the tilt sensor in an Opposite state.
Tinker CAD
Make project circuits in Tinker CAD program first.
Coding
-Tilt sensor position reflects on LED.
-Taking the tilt sensor reading from Pin analog 3~ "Input"
-LEDs act like action output
-LEDs light up depending on the Mercury tilt sensor state
-Switching between them "white when it is in normal state/blue in the opposite"

Circuits On breadboard wth Arduino
setup function:
this function used to setup and intialize the input/output pin in aurdoino
loop function:
this function repeated forever
if the input pin (3) reads high signal then
give signal to output pin (2)
remove signal from output(4)
2-else // if the input pin (3) reads low signal
remove signal from output (2)
send signal to output (4)
3- delay (10 ms)

Coding
Coding
Coding with blocks on TinkerCAD.
Choose option "Blocks&Text" to take the text code to the Arduino software.
Upload the code to Arduino .
// C++ code
//
void setup()
{
pinMode(3, INPUT);
pinMode(2, OUTPUT);
pinMode(4, OUTPUT);
}
void loop()
{
if (digitalRead(3) < HIGH) {
digitalWrite(2, HIGH);
digitalWrite(4, LOW);
} else {
digitalWrite(2, LOW);
digitalWrite(4, HIGH);
}
delay(10); // Delay a little bit to improve simulation performance
}

Overcoming Ghallenge
Mercury tilt sensor doesn't excite in Tinker CAD software.
I searched for it
Try to figure out how I can connect it
after" try & error" - asking for instructor help - implementing searching results..... it works الحمد لله
