11/25 - Mini Project 2 Final documentation

11/16 - Mini Project 2 Process 3

Testing by turning a desk lamp on and off. Will probably bring a flashlight to class or else use the lamp.

11/15 - Mini Project 2 Process 2

Finished circuit with photocell, LEDs and servo motor + enclosure attached to motor covering up photocell

11/15 - Mini Project 2 Process 1

I redid the circuit for my first mini project because I figured that I should start there and then add on the motor afterwards. Here you can see that when the light source is removed by me placing my finger on the sensor, the LEDs go out.

11/15 - Mini Project 2 Ideation

For the mini project "movement," I really wanted to expand upon my first mini project that worked with a photocell. The first one reacted when light shone upon it, lighting up the LEDs underneath the cover I made. With this one, I hoped to create a piece that not only lit up but also moved. I decided to utilize a motor, specifically a servo motor, to accomplish that.

((all of this also is me working up to my final project -- an unconventional drawing machine that "draws" with light and shadows))
