The Button Challenge

You said to not do this one because the button broke and you weren't replaced with a new one.

Counting with the 7 Segment Display

Counting with the 7 Segment Display:

For this lesson we have to make the LED chip count from zero to nine, or in other case making the LED chip display the numbers zero to nine. To do this we needed to use the code given to us in the lesson. This would modify it to display the lights in the right order for zero to nine. everything we put on the board, for the other lesson before stays on the board. Like the writing name lesson, we have to modify that code that was given to us. Sadly we did not have the picture, for this lesson due to errors, with this lesson.

We discussed this in class and you said that it was fine, just to tell you in the blog.




The Traffic Light RGB

The Traffic Light RGB:


For this lesson we have to make the LED blink three different colors,and these colors are red, blue, green. We don't need to remove anything, off either of the boards, we kept, everything on the boards, that includes the wires, resistors, and four pin LED. We just needed to rearrange the code, so that it would blink the three lights after the light before it turns off. The code had to be modified, to show more colors, on our four pin LED. As we proceeded with this process, it was a very easy lesson to complete, and took us no time to finish it.

Wiring the RGB Bulb

Wiring the RGB Bulb:

For the this lesson we had to make the colors, red ,green, and blue, mix into different colors and observe, what is going on. First we took four wires, we used a white, black, red, and a brown wires of this lesson. We connected them to the bread board, to the Arduino board, then connects three resistors, to the bread board, near all the wires. Then we connected a four pin LED to the bread board near the wires and resistors, so it can channel, enough electricity to the LED. Then use code given to us to run the program of mixing lights. 

Writing Your Name

Writing Your Name:


As we try to attempt, to complete this lesson, we ran through many errors, in the process, trying to complete it. we used code, given to us, but attempting to run it, the code led to errors,so a classmate, gave us a code, we wrote himself, and allowed us to borrow the code. It worked, but the next day, there were, errors, so we switch Arduino board, and arrange wires, in the order on the board. But we had a lot of problems, with the Arduino board, so we got another board, but problems we still indicated. on board, but the real cost, was program on the computer, causing to skip the lesson and moving on to the next one.

Seven Segment Display(Version 2)

Seven Segment Display(Version 2):

Our task for this lesson was to use these chips with, this chip has a LED, that had number lights, that require, you to go to one, to nine. We added a total of six resistors to the bread board to control the amount of energy put into it. Then we added six wires to the bread board, then connected them to the Arduino board. The colored wires used were red, yellow black, and a blue wire,connected to both boards. We added a chip in the middle, and used the code, that given, to us in the example, and we got the code, but the chip had a partial light, to it, and we spent, a day trying to fix it. The next, with a help of a classmate, we needed, a piece of a code, that will allow us to light the chip all the way, and we got it to finally work, to a classmate.

Play Some Music

Play Some Music:

This is challenge eight, where we have to use code that was given to us, to play a music, on the Arduino speaker. The song that was played, in this lesson was twinkle twinkle little star, played with piano sounds. The code given to us would allow us to play the song on the Arduino speaker, that is use to play the sound of the song, from the code. but due to some issues with the Arduino speaker, we were unable to proceed with this lesson. The Arduino speaker, took fall damage, so the base of the speaker is broken sadly. 

:(


Button and LED

Button and LED:

For this lesson we needed to add a button to the LED, with two red wires connected, to the bread board, and Arduino. Then we added a yellow wire to the bread board, and then connect it to the Arduino board. Then we added three blue resistors, to the bread board, to contain the certain amount of energy needed for the LED. modify more of the code, to be able to use the button to activate, and turn the light on and off. add the button to the bread board, and click the button, and see your results if the LED turns on or not. 

Controller LED with Potentiometer

Controller LED with Potentiometer:

For this lesson we had to control the LED to make it turn on and off, by using an electric dial, controlling the electricity. letting you turn the LED, on and off, when ever you want, with a couple of other attachments, to the breadboard. Such as one LED, any color, one resistor, blue, or brown, the blue resistor, work best for us. then added a black wire to the Ardunio board, then add another black wire which will be the ground wire, near LED, and resistor. then we connected a red and white wire, to the bread board, and Arduino board.

Counting in Binary

Counting in Binary:

Using the binary, made with zeros, and ones, adding a fourth LED, blue resistor, and a orange wire, keeping LED's separated from each other LED. Then, using decimal, hexadecimal and binary to,start counting. the code, that adds more delays, and binary code to the code, that we were working on in this lesson. we started with the binary number, that set the lights to stay off, which 0000, this is the starting points for the lights. Then when you set to 0001 the light on the right, will turn on, then if you set it to 0010, the second light from the right will turn off. Then we continue process, for the other lights. 


Programming Three LEDs

Programming Three LED's:

We added another LED, another blue resistor, and a white wire, and made sure all LED, resistor, and wires were spread apart. So no electrical issues, happen, during our progress, of this part of the lesson. using same code before, but adding more delays to the code, making the three lights turn on at different times. we have to make the the three LED's blink for one second each, after, we have to try to make them blink, again, but they have to blink twice. Then finally, we have to make the three LED's blink, in a pattern.
