Circuit 1. Nathaniel and himself. Blinking a LED

Goal: Make a light blink on and off. Then, for the product, make the light blink at a slower rate.

Schematic

Code/sketch. The 1000 is how many milliseconds of delay there is in the LED.

WIN_20230920_14_15_54_Pro.mp4

Video of working circuit. (Product)

Code/sketch (product) the delay has been changed to 5000 milliseconds to make the delay longer.

Circuit 2. Nathaniel and himself. Potentiometer

Goal: Get the Potentiometer to change the rate of blinks to make it look like a solid

(product)

(product) A Potentiometer changes the rate at which an LED blinks by turning a knob at the top to a certain position. The way it works is there are 5 volts going into the Potentiometer. The outer two pins get 5 volts of electricity and then the middle pin outputs a voltage of 0-5 depending on how the user turns the knob at the top.

Circuit 3. Nathaniel (supervisor), Gasper (Circuit Builder). RGB LED

Goal:

Schematic

C 3

(Product) Code/sketch. Uncomment the showSpectrum(). To do this, the // needs to be backspaced from in front of the code. This is because // represents a comment, which is not apart of the code.

Circuit 4. Nathaniel and Gasper. Multiple LEDs

Goal: Get multiple LEDs to light up and turn off in different patterns.

Pro: It works.
Con: It dose not really have a use.

Video of working circuit.

Pro: the LED is off in the light, so when the lights are off the LED will make light in the dark.
Con: It will only turn on if the light is low.

Circuit 7. Nathaniel and Colton. Temperature Sensor.

Goal: Sense the temperature and output data.

Circuit 11. Nathaniel. Relays

Goal: Make the red LED and the yellow LED blink on and off. (unfortunately, there were technical difficulties and the circuit didn't end up working the way it was supposed to.)

(Btw, ignore the yellow light. I plugged the wire into the wrong pin, which made it light up. It is not supposed to do that.) (PS, Mr. Swick said just put what I had, so that is one of the reasons circuit 11 was never completed.)
