Project: Proof-of-Concept

My final project is “Escaping Veil” to help women to get away from a terrible marriage. I have tried to sew a shape “NO” on a piece of fabric at first and I will sew this shape on the veil for my final project. My goal for the project is that sewing the shape of “NO” on the veil which is controlled by a button. Next step I will make the line more straightly and sew it on the veil. For my final project, there will be a big “NO” on the veil when the bridge presses the button to resist a terrible marriage.

Project: DotStar Halloween

Her name is Angela, the Angle Among the Devil.

There are two lighting patterns to separately show the two sides of Angela.

Red lights represent Devil and Purple represent Angle.

Lab 7: Halloween Masks

In this lab, I have learned how to change the light patterns of velcro light and how to make masks.

Project 6: Eye Design

Characters: Tom & Jerry

Story: Tom is a cat and Jerry is a mouse. They are enemies and they don’t like each other. Jerry is afraid of Tom, so when Tom appears in his insight, he runs away immediately. And also, Jerry is a naughty boy and he always tries to make Tom angry, so he is chased by Tom all the time.

Difficulty : Using the light sensor is new and because it is depend on the environment therefore kind of difficult.

This a fancy shinny hat controlled by volts. All the four LED lights controlled by different volts. 

I do complete my goals which are a fancy hat and 4 Led lights controlled by 4 different volts.

[xtephanie-xinyi-blog]

There are 4 LED lights controlled by different volts and a microphone is connected .

In the process, I have separated 4 LED lights by the pin mode and then to be controlled by different volts

Unfortunately, my square wear is broken. This is my sound before it is broken.

Maybe there exists some short circuits related to the metal wire and I am so sorry about that.

I have planed to do a shinny bag but the square wear is broken. It is such a pity.

I will try hard in next week project.

From this lab, I have learned how to make short melody by using the Arduino and I have already set “happy birthday” song. The video cannot sent through email so there is only a picture.

I really need to make an improvement for the understanding of the notes and computer language in the Arduino.
