Project 1_1 "Light"
In this project I changed the code on my Arduino Uno board to make the LED on the Uno board flash every half second. I than plugged it in to my computer. We than had to take a picture and add it to our websites. 12/3/24
Project 1_2 "LED"
In this project Luc Purcell made a tinkerkad simulation to guide our project building. He than copied this on to his bread board from his starter kit. He added a positive wire to 5V pinon his Arduino Uno board and connected it to the top port on his + bread board row. He than connected a negetive wire to the GND pin and connected it to his - port. He added a resistor and a wire to allow the current to reach the LED without blowing it up. 12/5/24
Project 1_3 "Button"
In this project I added a button and two more wires to start my LED only when I click the button. To do this I had to add to wires to to 8 d and 13 d. We also added a transmitor that reduced the amount of energy to the LED. We had to press the button and then the LED would light up. 12/10/24
Project 1_4 "Button Series"
In this assignment I added an extra button to turn on the LED. To do this I needed to move down the negetive wire and the LED. Than I had to add a button and and extra wire that connected to the LED. Than I had to push both buttons for the LED to turn on. 12/11/24
Project 1_5 "Parralel Circut"
In this exercise I used a parralel cirut to make my LED light up without having to press both buttons. I did this by putting one of my buttons behind the other in line with the resistor. Than I connected the wires to the LED by putting them in the same row just in different spots. This allowed for them both to have a current and both to cause the LED to light up. I had a little trouble at first because I put the negetive side of the LED in the positive spot. This took me a while to find but I overcame my challenges.
Project 1_6 "Traffic Light"
In this project I was in a group with Mitchell, Eli, and Logan. I was the manager so my job was to help everyone and keep them focused. I also was always the one with the final say. I believe that I was fair towards my teammates. I mostly helped Mitchell with the building as Logan and Eli finished their jobs quickly. 12/13/24-1/8/25
