Here is an explanation of the princples behind LED light sensingk /* LED sensor. By having an led wired up with the anodePin to the LED's long leg and the cathodePin to a resistor and then to the short leg of the LED, the LED will blink quickly, but slow enough to be percieved and then measure the amount of ambient light based on how long it takes for charge to disperse from the cathode leg. Note, in this code the average read of the LED is with N=10. However, the read function has a mi…

2013-03-25T19:41:05-04:00

This is only an example/test code that I used to see if the i/o expander would still work with the light sensors (which it did). If anyone needs to make up their own, they may remove all sub-functions and whatever is in the loop function to get it to work. All you have to do to go to a certain address of the i/o expander is to digitalWrite Apin through Epin to the values of A through E. (see the beginning of the reads sub-function).

This code accomplishes the same thing the first generation of code had done, except more efficiently. Efficiently in that less wires go to the Arduino. Here, I added a servo controller along with an Input/Output expander made of Multiplexers (4051's). There is smaller versions of these codes as well as wiring documents on the previous page that better explains each. The end accomplishment though is that 18 servos and 18 sensors can be run off of 2 pins (five address pins, one transmit pin, an…

If you trying using this code it will do nothing. That is there is nothing in the loop function. However, this code contains the sub-functions needed to communicate with the 24-port servo controller that Pololu sells. This only exploits movement. If you look into different command numbers you can also control the speed of the servos and access other features available to the pololu protocol.

This code uses 74LS194 bi-directional shift registers that are shifting left. After each clock pulse, the data will move one bit to the left (q3 to q2, q2 to q1, q1 to q0, and serial left to q3). For more application the s0 and s1 pins of the chip can be controlled by the Arduino to shift right, hold, or parallel load (besides shift left).

In this setup we ended up using an NPN transistor. This is a helpful site to learn about the differences in transistors and how they work: Click int led=3;//base int button=4; int vcc=5; int ground=13; void onoff(void); void setup(){ pinMode(led, OUTPUT); pinMode(button, INPUT); pinMode(vcc, OUTPUT); pinMode(ground, OUTPUT); digitalWrite(led, LOW); digitalWrite(ground, LOW); digitalWrite(vcc, HIGH); Serial.begin(9600); } void loop(){ if(digitalRead(button)==1){ onof…
