To Do : Make something move. Try to use an analog sensor.

Here is my schematic: 

Schematic of of servo motor controlled by an FSR











Connect power and ground on the breadboard to power and ground from the microcontroller. On the Arduino module, use the 5V or 3.3V (depending on your model) and any of the ground connections, as shown in Figures 9 and 10.





Program the Microcontroller

First, find out the range of your sensor by using analogRead() to read the sensor and printing out the results.

And my motor worked:

TO DO:  Create another circuit or modify your existing circuit, this time using the Arduino to read your input and to affect your output. This assignment was a little confusing for me. When I attempt to do it the first time I failed. But once I  study the schematic and really understand the circuit flow I began to process it.   - wire everything correctly, follow the schematic - input/output is connected to button and the main power source - Write the correct program so it responds accordingly.  - Sync the arduino with the code - connect and test The code commands the microcontroller to controls the system. Learning:  Microcontrollers are optimized for control of general input and output.  Controller  or  microcontroller  is usually reserved for a simple processor that does only one task, like listening to sensors.

FINAL PROJECT

My Final Project is a sound piece company with a visual projection using  an analog sensor and P5 sketch . By using the ultrasonic module distance sensor I want to program three trigger points to activate three different sounds to make an immersive installation. The project is hope experiment  with an analog sensor reacts to the P5 sketch program that communicates to an Arduino. The installation is designed so people can walk around and interact with the sound and even add their own sound to trigger the visual activation.  P5 Code for sound activation: 3 different trigger points to set the sound off. https://editor.p5js.org/heestar-knotty/sketches/37DNwFe2S P5 code for visual activation: The line drawing reacting to the volume of the sound.  https://editor.p5js.org/heestar-knotty/sketches/ZJJi033hd I had two computers work simultaneously to make this installation. One dedicated to my sound activation and one for the visual activation.  Here is the recording of the
