My final project was a Christmas Gift.

The  concept was that someone receives the gift without knowing anything about what would be inside and once the person opens it, s/he is going to be suprised.

Above is our PDF stating our process (with images!), concept, code, final product and inspiration :)

Concept:

Use Arduino to create a “night light.” Meaning, a toy that plays music and lights-up in the dark!

Here’s how Humphrey works:

Yerang Choi and I worked on creating a piece with LEDs that would respond to noise/sound.

We used a small plastic piece in which we punched holes through with thumbtacks. After this we stuck in our LEDs that we had soldered to wires and resistors. There are a total of ten LEDs. Surrounding the plastic so as to hide the inside organs of our piece is tin foil. The piece resembles a jellyfish or a cake. We took inspiration from some videos on YouTube:

Here’s the link to our project.

Here’s a screenshot our our inspiration board.

Code:

// finger values
int finger0;
int finger1;
int finger2;

void setup(){
Serial.begin(9600);
//fingers
pinMode(A0, INPUT);
pinMode(A1, INPUT);
pinMode(A2, INPUT);
//led
pinMode(11, OUTPUT);
pinMode(10, OUTPUT);
pinMode(9, OUTPUT);
//gnd & vcc
pinMode(5, OUTPUT);
pinMode(4, OUTPUT);
pinMode(3, OUTPUT);
pinMode(2, OUTPUT);
}

void loop(){
digitalWrite(5, HIGH);
digitalWrite(4, HIGH);
digitalWrite(3, LOW);
digitalWrite(2, LOW);

finger0 = analogRead(A0);
Serial.println(finger0);
finger1 = analogRead(A1);
finger2 = analogRead(A2);

map(finger0, 0, 255, 0, 1023);
map(finger1, 0, 255, 0, 1023);
map(finger2, 0, 255, 0, 1023);
analogWrite(9, finger0);
analogWrite(10, finger1);
analogWrite(11, finger2);
delay(1000);

}

For the final project, I want to make a lamp for my bedroom.

Using LED lights, It automatically turns on when it is dark, and turns off when it is bright.

I was inspired by this image below.
