Arduino Programming

Image
Heyy guys welcome back to my blog 😄, this would be the last blog I will be posting before the school holidays comes and. Today I would be sharing with you my experience and what I have done for the Arduino Lessons. Do read on as I would be sharing some wonderful and interesting pictures.  There are 4 tasks that will be explained in this page: 1. Input devices: a. Interface a potentiometer analog input to maker UNO board and measure/show its signal in serial monitor Arduino IDE b. Interface a LDR to maker UNO board and measure/show its signal in serial monitor Arduino IDE 2. Output devices: a. Interface 3 LEDs (Red, Yellow, Green) to maker UNO board and program it rot perform something (fade or flash etc) b. Include the pushbutton on the MakerUno board to start/stop part 2.a above For each of the tasks, I will describe:  1. The program/code that I have used and explanation of the code. The code is in writable format (not an image) 2. The sources/references that I used to write...

Gears

Heyy guys welcome back to my blog 😄, today I would be sharing with you my experience and what I have done for the Practical on Gears. Do read on as I would be sharing some wonderful and interesting pictures. In this page, I will describe:  1. The definition of gear module, pitch circular diameter and the relationship between gear module, pitch circular diameter and the number of teeth. 2. The relationship between gear ratio (speed ratio) 3. How I can design a better hand-squeezed fan, including the sketches 4. How my practical team arranged the gears provided in the practical to raise the water bottle, consisting of:  a. Calculation of the gear ratio (speed ratio) b. The photo of the actual gear layout. c. Calculation of the number of revolutions required to rotate the crank handle  d. The video of the turning of the gears to lift the water bottle. 5. My Learning reflection on the gears activities. 1. These are the definition of gear module, pitch circular diameter and ...

Laser Cutting

Hey guys welcome to my first blog post of this semester. Today I will be sharing with you about my experience with CPDD Practical 1- Laser Cutting. ⚡️😎⚡️ 1. There are the 4 important hazards and the respective safety control measures on the operation of laser cutting machine: ⚠️⚠️ 2.  Below are the materials that can be cut/engraved using laser cutting machine in FabLab.     Below are the materials that can't be cut/engraved using laser cutting machine in FabLab. 3. Below are the steps on the operation of UNIVERSAL laser cutter machine in FabLab: a. Starting the compressor, turning on the laser cutting machine and fume extractor. b. Importing a .DXF file to Coreldraw and modify the lines/ fill for cutting and engraving. c. Sending the coreldraw drawing to laser cutter software and setting the laser cutter power, speed, PPI in the software. d. Starting the job on the laser cutter machine. e. DOs and DONTS when there's flame/fire on the material being cut. 4. Below is my L...
