  • Arduino Breadboard Tutorial with LEDs

    I added a breadboard and LEDs to my Morse Code project (http://crashinginthecloud.com/2013/03/14/arduino-arrays-for-loops-switch-case-examples/)! It’s something I wanted to do since I first had the idea to create my own Morse Code parser on the Arduino. How will anyone Save [My] Ship if all I’m using is the tiny, built-in LED on pin 13? The final product…

  • Arduino Switch Case Example

    I wanted to share something before I get into the example… if (you.likeMovies && you.areInterestedInMormons) { you.should.watch(‘http://www.hulu.com/watch/543302’); } else if (you.areInterestedInMormons) { you.should.read(‘http://www.mormon.org’); } Now, on to the example – I wrote a program a little while ago that translated (hard-coded) messages into light emissions on the Arduino. The program iterates through each character in…

  • Arduino – arrays, for loops, switch case examples

      Arduinos are pretty fun little machines. Using them combines programming with electronics, which is a great combination. I’m starting Arduino with a background in PHP and Javascript. While some things are quite different (Arduino programs, called sketches, are C and C++ at heart), I felt fairly comfortable diving right in and learning things as…
