OUR FINAL PROJECT HAS RUN INTO A LOT OF PROBLEMS.  FIRST OFF WE COULD NOT FIGURE OUT HOW TO GET ONE LED TO LIGHT UP AT A TIME. THAT WAS A MAJOR ISSUE, BECAUSE WE WERE USING THE DIMMING IN OUR CODE, WE HAD MORE THEN ONE LED STAY ON AT ONE TIME. SO WE … Continue reading FINAL PROJECT UPDATE → Continue reading →

HEY EVERYONE,  SO THE FINAL BUILD OF OUR FINAL PROJECT IS COMING ALONG GREAT! I STARTED TO THINK OF OUR FINAL PROJECT AS SOMETHING BEING ENTERED INTO A SCIENCE FAIR. MEANING OUR PROJECT HAS TO STAND ALONE, SO WE MUST HAVE A WAY OF EXPLAINING WHAT OUR PROJECT IS, AND THE RULES TO FOLLOW. SO … Continue reading UPDATE ON THE JC NIGHT LIGHT SINGING GAME → Continue reading →

OK so our original idea to use the acrylic cover won’t work, because it came in the mail, and it’s entirely too small. Never fear….. A new one has been ordered. http://m.instructables.com/id/Mood-Lamp-with-Arduino/?ALLSTEPS BILLS OF MATERIALS FINALIZED 9 volt battery Arduino board breadboard 1 Red Led, 1 Blue Led, 1 green Led 1 LDR ( light … Continue reading JC NIGHT LIGHT SINGING GAME….FINAL PROJECT UPDATE. → Continue reading →

Arduino Night Light This project creates an automated night light. The lights will turn on automatically when the room is dark, and off when the room is light. Components Needed: 1x Arduino 1x Breadboard 3x 220 Ohm Resistors 1x 10K Ohm Resistor 3x LED’s Wires Components can be found at http://egrobotics.com/store/ This Project uses and … Continue reading FINAL PROJECT → Continue reading →

Professor Dawn asked us to create a circuit, using foil or some kind of resistant materials. Also it was key to use the Capacitive Sensor code. The Arduino library didn’t have the Capacitive code in its library,  so it needed to be downloaded,  using the links from the Arduino website,  I posted it below. http://arduino.cc/en/Guide/Libraries … Continue reading Arduino Capacitive Sensor → Continue reading →

So I came up with the idea to house the Motor inside a toilet tissue roll. I then wrapped the toilet tissue roll in glow in the dark paper.   One thing I noticed that the glow in the dark paper has to be charged under light in order for it to work.   I … Continue reading Housing the JC SPINNER! → Continue reading →

Omg…does not begin to describe the amount of issues, me and my team mate had to endure… Our code, and the motor worked for 2 seconds, and the wires kept falling off the motor. 1st… the wires to our motor kept on falling off…. back to soldering the wires back to the motor. 2nd… attaching … Continue reading TROUBLE SHOOTING JC SPINNER! → Continue reading →

Complete Projects 3 (Love-o-Meter) was the next task at hand.  The components: Arduino UNO Breadboard Jumper wires LEDs 220 ohm resistors TMP36 temperature sensor this circuit is using both digital and analog side of the Arduino uno board. As usual I connected the breadboard to power (5V) and to the ground (GND). I inserted the … Continue reading Love – O- Meter → Continue reading →

Professor asked us to work on creating circuits using the breadboard. Which is this: as you may notice holes inside the breadboard,  those are called pins. You may also notice that theirs a positive and negative side , on each end of the breadboard. The jumper wires are what connect the breadboard to the arduino … Continue reading CIRCUIT BUILDERS ON THE BREADBOARD → Continue reading →

So in class Professor asked us to do the following: Create four (4) new, separate Arduino sketches called: (1) buttonProtoSnap (2) rGBProtoSnap (3) photoCellProtoSnap (4) buzzerProtoSnap For the first sketch, program the buttonStatus and ledPin variables so that when the button is not pressed, the LED is off, otherwise the LED is on. Change comments … Continue reading 4 SKETCH CHANGES – PROTOSNAP PRO MINI → Continue reading →

So professor Dawn handed out Arduino kits. I Must admit I’m not good with software,  and I have never seen coding before.  So my blog will be so basic….a true newbie  could do it. please feel free to check out all links and YouTube videos i have uploaded, to help better understand Arduino.

Hey everyone! So I was recently working with the Little Bits deluxe kit. This kit has 3 trays. EVERYTHING IS COLOR CODED Into PINK, ORANGE, GREEN Modules.   In class I was overly excited like a child,  because it was similar to playing with Legos. Meaning you have the opportunity to stick things together and … Continue reading LETS STICK TOGETHER LIKE CIRCUITS → Continue reading →
