Infrared remote controlling littleBits
Simon was experimenting with changing sound frequency using infrared light today. The light sensor in his electric circuit reacts to any light, including infrared light. Different remote controls resulted in … Continue reading Infrared remote controlling littleBits
LittleBits are still around
When Simon wants some rest from the brainpower consuming Arduino he switches back to the simpler LittleBits. This is just one of the many little things he built over the … Continue reading LittleBits are still around
Two more Arduino Starter Kit projects
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
Run, electron, run!
Last Wednesday our wonderful chemistry teacher John Maas was here again to give his monthly workshop. This time we asked him to take electricity under the loupe, talk about what … Continue reading Run, electron, run!
Watch Simon invert a ready made Arduino code
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
Arduino Uno!
Simon got his real Arduino tonight and sat down studying it until (way past) bedtime.
Simon studied prototype modules today
In this video Simon explains the use of the LittleBits proto module (a module that can be worked on to make your own new module) using a graph he made … Continue reading Simon studied prototype modules today
Hours of Coding
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
Secret box full of logic gates
Simon explains how to build a circuit for a secret safe, a LittleBits project he saw on the internet. He is very fond of logic gates (XOR, Double AND, inverter) … Continue reading Secret box full of logic gates
Arduino_Tell_The_Fortune. New fun codes composed by Simon.
Simon spent most of the day coding, with a break to have his Chinese lesson. It turned out that he was composing his one codes. It was very frustrating when … Continue reading Arduino_Tell_The_Fortune. New fun codes composed by Simon.
Simon wrote this code himself.
And it worked! It makes the number bit go up to 99.
