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.

Circuit 1 - Blinking a LED

The default circuit 1 code, with a 1 second, (1000 millisecond) delay on the LED blinks.

Process

We put it on a 30 second delay so it blinks so fast its hard to see

Our Arduino board is set to blink on a 30 millisecond delay.

Circut 2- Potentiometer

Process

A potentiometer, or "pot" for short, is a control knob. It's the same type of control you'd use to change volume, dim a lamp, etc. A potentiometer changes resistance as it is turned. By using it as a "voltage divider", the Arduino can sense the position of the knob, and use that value to control whatever you wish (like the blink rate of an LED as we're doing here).

Circut 3- RGB LED display a rainbow of colors

Our Arduino board blinking through Red, Green, Blue, Yellow, Light Blue, Purple, White, and then quickly cycling through every color in between.

Process

The showSpectrum function quickly cycles through the spectrum of every color, with a delay of 1 millisecond.

Circuit 4

This is the Audrino running with out default code.

Process

This is us running it the second time with the updated code.

Circuit 5 - Push buttons

Our circuit running, when either button is pressed, the LED will turn on. When both buttons are pressed at the same time, the light will turn off until one of the buttons is lifted.

Circuit #6 Photo resistor

Our circuit running on the manualTune function. The light doesn't completely turn off, and when the resistor is triggered there is less of a change.

Process

Our circuit running on the autoTune function. The light turns off completely, and is very sensitive to light. The resistor is easily triggered for a large change.

Circut 7 - Tempature Sensor

This is the serial monter working and displaying the tempature from our code

This is the circuit running and the cereal monitor displaying the temperature.

Process

Our LED on the board stayed on through the whole video.

We coded the board to sense if the area was below 25 degrees Celsius with the temperature sensor, and if it was, then to turn on the red LED. In this situation, it was staying consistently below 25°C.

Circut 8

This is the servo running with the original code.

Process

Here is the servo with no delay and spinning in a smaller radius.

Circuit 9 -Buzzer

WIN_20240911_14_18_46_Pro.mp4

This is the speaker playingt the original code with the sound "never gunna give you up by rick ashley.

Process

WIN_20240911_14_09_39_Pro.mp4

Here is the code and the updated project playing "Jingle bells"
