Arduino LED Blinking Light



This is the blinking LED light. To do this project it requires an arduino kit (obviously)and also putting a light pin on 13, under GDN, with the small tip first the. First connect the Arduino board to the computer using the USB cord and then you open up Arduino on the computer and type the code:

void setup() {
pinMode(13, OUTPUT);
}
void loop() {
digitalWrite(13, HIGH);
delay(500);
digitalWrite(13, LOW);
delay(300);
}
This code determines how fast you want the LED light to blink and the delay on it.

Make 5 Projects

1-Batteries from Everyday Things: This project is very convenient when low on battery life. This project allows one to create a battery out of every day objects using a catalyst like material like zinc.

2-Army Guy Bowl: This is a pretty fun project when you have a lot of soldier toys and a lot of time. It is a fruit bowl made of toy soldiers and it is made by using a heat gun and a bowl to get the shape and in the end it looks really cool

3-Kitty Kaleidoscope: This is a fun project but one needs to be tech savy.this person us3ed photoshop to create a kaleidoscope effect of a picture of their cat.

4-Paper Pocket Loom: This is a pretty interesting project for those who like sowing. This project is what I believe an antique sowing machine and it is made out of paper and yarn and if done correctly it can make a scarf.

5-Swing Shift Ruffles: This project is for women that like their dress so much but don't want to seem as if they where the same thing over and over. This dress can change into different types of disguises.

Life To Broken Techonology


This is my discarded piece of technology. It is an aluminum can that is found in Woody's. This is usually used as a container for liquid but I decided to drink it and turn it to something else.


Being an innovator....yeah not really... I decided to take a pair of scissors and an X-acto blade and cut out a hole on the lid to be able to put stuff in. After struggling like hell to make the hole big enough, I put a bag through it so now what was once considered trash can now collect it. So you could do this or make it into another storage device.

Dream Machine





This is my dream machine named Dr. Diagnosis, this machine is capable of diagnosing any sickness and also allows one to figure out a way of how to treat it. All of this is done by depositing $10 and also by supplying the machine with a urine sample that is poured into the machine.
This Dream machine that was thought up for class was inspired by a joke and this is that joke. Enjoy.
