Arduino Learning Projects

Welcome to the Arduino Learning Projects repository! This collection is dedicated to showcasing my journey as I learn and experiment with Arduino.

Projects List

1. Blinking red LED
   • Description: In this project, you'll learn how to make a red LED blink at regular intervals. This is a great starting point for anyone new to Arduino.
   • Skills Learned: Use of digitalWrite() and delay(), basic understanding of circuits.
2. Red LED toggle
   • Description: This project extends the previous one to allow toggling the red LED on and off with a button press. It's useful for learning how to handle digital inputs and outputs.
   • Skills Learned: Handling inputs and outputs, use of digitalRead() and digitalWrite().
3. LED RGB Color Changer
   • Description: This project uses an RGB LED to change colors based on red, green, and blue values. It’s a great exercise to understand color mixing and analog signal control.
   • Skills Learned: Use of PWM pins and analogWrite().
4. Simple Melody Player
   • Description: In this project, you’ll build a simple melody player using a piezo buzzer. You’ll learn how to generate sounds and melodies with Arduino.
   • Skills Learned: Using the tone() function to produce sounds, understanding note frequencies and durations.
5. Photoresistor Light Trigger
   • Description: This project involves using a photoresistor to detect light levels and control an LED based on those levels. When the light intensity falls below a specific threshold, the LED turns on, and it turns off when the light intensity is above the threshold. This project demonstrates how to read analog values and control a digital output based on those readings.
   • Skills Learned: Reading analog sensor values using analogRead().
6. Thermo Display
   • Description: This project uses a thermistor to measure the ambient temperature and displays it on a seven-segment display. It involves creating a voltage divider circuit with the thermistor, calculating temperature using the Steinhart-Hart equation, and showing the temperature with a seven-segment display.
   • Skills Learned: Temperature calculation, working with seven-segment displays, and updating displays with SevSeg library.
7. IncliAlert
   • Description: This project uses a tilt switch to activate an LED and a buzzer. When the tilt switch is tilted, the LED lights up, and the buzzer sounds, demonstrating basic digital input and output control.
   • Skills Learned: Understanding how a tilt switch works.
8. Light Intensity Regulator
   • Description: This project uses a potentiometer to control the brightness of an LED. As the potentiometer is adjusted, the LED’s brightness changes, showing how to read analog input values and use PWM output to create a dimming effect.
   • Skills Learned: Understanding how a potentiometer works.
9. Blue Light
   • Description: This project implements a Bluetooth Low Energy (BLE) controller to turn an LED on and off remotely.
   • Skills Learned: BLE communication with ArduinoBLE library, handling BLE services and characteristics.
