write a 300 word project description and send to me by aug. 1st. 

Homework- next meeting

Aug. 2nd - 12:00pm

relay thing
bluetooth thing
make final piece....
bowling for dollars- funding streams

Homework week 6

1) relay research for your project (be really careful with electricity!!!)
2) arduino (daisy-chain) research for your project
3) write up comprehensive budget for both methods of completing project
4) using this program http://www.windmeadow.com/node/42 with wii numchuck, hack to then use data from wii to do something- that something is up to you. write up a tutorial.

emily homework- play around with touch osc iphone app and max/msp

touch osc by hexler

sho at work

relay -push button on arduino switches on 120V (light) for 20 seconds

/*
  relay on for 20 seconds

 Turns on and off a relay connected to digital 
 pin 12, when pressing a push-button attached to pin 7.


 The circuit:
 * relay (ctrl) attached from pin 12 to ground
 * pushbutton attached to pin 2 from +5V
 * 10K resistor attached to pin 2 from ground

 * Note: on most Arduinos there is already an LED on the board
 attached to pin 13.

// constants won't change. They're used here to
// set pin numbers:
const int buttonPin = 2;     // the number of the pushbutton pin
const int pinout =  12;      // the number of the relay pin

// variables will change:
int buttonState = 0;         // variable for reading the pushbutton status

void setup() {
  // initialize the relay pin as an output:
  pinMode(pinout, OUTPUT);     
  // initialize the pushbutton pin as an input:
  pinMode(buttonPin, INPUT);    
}

void loop(){
  // read the state of the pushbutton value:
  buttonState = digitalRead(buttonPin);

  // check if the pushbutton is pressed.
  // if it is, the buttonState is HIGH:
  if (buttonState == HIGH) {    
    // turn relay on:   
    digitalWrite(pinout, HIGH);
   delay(20000);
  }
  else {
    // turn LED off:
    digitalWrite(pinout, LOW);

Temp/Humidity SHT 15 Sensor Test

I found this handy tutorial online by Maurice Ribble.

Setup arduino board and upload code. Set baud rate to 9600.  The only trick is to remember to send a 't' or 'h' to the sensor via the serial port terminal to get your data back.
