The motive of this assignment was to learn the basics of microcontroller programming. For this assignment we used Arduino as our computing device.
The main task was to:
In groups of two, write your first name by switching 9 LEDs on/off and push buttons such that:
Component | NOs | Use |
---|---|---|
Breadboard | 1 | Base for connections |
Jumper wires | ~10 | for Connecting Components |
Light Emitting Diodes | 9 | for Displaying alphabets |
Resistors | 9 | Control current flow |
Push button | 2 | controlling inputs |
Arduino kit | 1 | Micro Controller |
Since I knew C programming, it helped me in learning the basic coding required for this assignment. I learned the basics of arduino during the lectures which helped in completing this assignment.
After the testing and debugging the task was completed. The video below shows the led matrix displaying the name "RAHUL" and then blinking 5 time.
