During math class Friday, calculating the resistance in Ohms.
The Color Mixing Lamp project uses three photoresistors covered with colored film. The voltage is proportional to the ratio of their resistances (they act like light sensors). I had to … Continue reading Two more Arduino Starter Kit projects
Simon got his Arduino Starter Kit last night. He built the first project in the booklet using the code (sketch) provided by the manufacturers. In this video he changes the … Continue reading Watch Simon invert a ready made Arduino code
Simon got his real Arduino tonight and sat down studying it until (way past) bedtime.
This is a beautiful example of Simon’s first daring steps to create his own codes with Arduino. He wanted to make the computer (the serial monitor) say “Yes” once the … Continue reading switch() case
This is just a part of the list of Arduino sketches Simon has written between 10 if August and now (in just three weeks). He meticulously copies difficult codes, creates … Continue reading Hours of Coding
And it worked! It makes the number bit go up to 99.
Trying to write code would be a more accurate way to say it as many sketches don’t work or have errors, but the fact remains: two days ago Simon started … Continue reading He’s writing code!
