Robot Art Show
Summary:
In this project, we were asked to create an electronic light show using an Arduino board. My partner Tyler and I started off by learning how to build simple circuits using alligator clips and wires. Once we understood how electricity and circuits worked, we started using breadboards, resistors, and potentiometers to create more complex circuits using Arduino. Throughout this project, we hit some bumps in the road, but we got the help we needed and pushed thru. We had to complete three packets, doing a serious of testing with all different types of equipment. Some of the circuits we built included flashing lights patterns and sounds which made songs. By the end of this project, Tyler and I had to present a pattern that we had created on our own. However we had a few troubles with this. One main problem being that we did not quite manage our time properly because I was out sick a couple of days. We ended up settling for a light arrangement that I came up with on the very last day. We started to write code for it to make the lights blink but we ran out of time so we just went with what we had. Although there were many troubles that we had to deal with, I felt that my partner and I pushed thru the best we could.
