Computer Science Final Richard Barkley
My computer science final is an Arduino LCD display for the door to the MakerSpace. The sign indicates if the room is open based on the light intensity of the room. The box is wedged between the bars of the window and runs off of a 9V battery or wall power. The sign lets students know whether the room is open, and allows them to see which teacher is present in the room.
Supplies and Prototype 1
First prototype.
Using Arduino Uno and LCD screen (2x20) with I2C module to display inputs and outputs.
Electronic Supplies
x1 Arduino Uno
x1 (2x20) or (4x20) LCD screed with I2C module.
x1 Breadboard
x1 Photoresistor
x2 Green LEDs
x2 Red LEDs
x2 5V Capacitors
x4 Low ohm resistors
Jumper Cables
9 Volt Battery
Arduino AC to 9v power adaptor
Physical Supplies
Screws
Nuts
Drill
Hot Glue
Cardboard (wood optional)
soldering iron (optional)
Arduino Wiring
The wiring to the Arduino can be either male and female connection or solder connection.
Male & Female
- easily interchangeable
- Weaker connection (Can disconnect)
Soldered connection
- Strong connection.
- Can replace the use of a breadboard.
- Permanent connection.
