10/12 Tatyana and Kelsey Mini Project

For the mini projects Kelsey and I decided to work separately, but still together, on projects that when combined could be of possible use for our final project. Kelsey focused on the actual motion of the the piece, while I created the more visual presence.

My project encompasses the mood light, a lightings schematic that portrays the mood of the person based on temperature. Unfortunately and Fortunately things went well and wrong with this learning experiment.

I was unable to hookup the temperature sensor due to complications and my own incompetence, so I tweaked the code to make it so that the light changed based in proximity.



LED
LDR
120K RESISTOR (didn't have the 120 so I switched with a 100k and 150k)
ARDUINO







The tmp sensor worked at the beginning, the day before crit (Kelsey was always yellow, I was always blue, Shimul/ Ivette was red) but when I put the cylinder cone on top, it began to not work as well, and even taking the paper off, the sensor didn't work. I tried replacing it and re making the schematic but :[, so I modified the board, to just create a constantly changing lava lamp. This coincide more with our project anyway, and worked best alongside Kelsey's motor project
