Arduino

ARDUINO IS AN OPEN-SOURCE PHYSICAL COMPUTING PLATFORM DESIGNED TO MAKE EXPERIMENTING WITH ELECTRONICS MORE FUN AND INTUITIVE. ARDUINO HAS ITS OWN UNIQUE, SIMPLIFIED PROGRAMMING LANGUAGE, A VAST SUPPORT NETWORK, AND THOUSANDS OF POTENTIAL USES, MAKING IT THE PERFECT PLATFORM FOR BOTH BEGINNER AND ADVANCED DIY ENTHUSIASTS.

CIRCUITS 1-6

CIRCUIT 1

the original code in which it makes the led blink every 1 second

the changed code in which the led blinks very fast

CIRCUIT 2

A potentiometer is a control knob same as the control knobs you may use to dim lights in a room which potentiometers do play a part in. A potentiometer changes resistance as its twisted aka a voltage divider. Arduino can tell the position of the potentiometer and change the value when the knob is twisted which changes the rate the led is blinking

CIRCUIT 3

original code in which the led just blinks and fades slightly instead of fading from color to color permanently

the changed code in which the led fades from color to color instead of blinking

CIRCUIT 4

The code that makes the leds go one at a time.

The code that makes the leds chase eachother in a loop.

CIRCUIT 5

push buttons that both turn the led on.

CIRCUIT 6

manual tune code

The code used for manual tune in arduino is pretty easy an straight forward to understand and is best suited for predictable lighting environments. but fails when it ages and dust collects. its baseline readings shift over time and manual tune cannot fix this eventually leading to system failure.

CIRCUITS 7-12

CIRCUIT 7

The manipulated code that tells the led if it is hotter then 75 degrees it should turn on and when it is lower it should remain off. Here i am using the heat from my fingers to make it hot enough.
