Triple Potentiometer with RGB LED
I wanted to perfect this particular configuration so I went ahead and did a little more research to make sure it worked.  Once I got the right spec setup for the RGB LED (I assumed it’s setup was a logical interpretation but once I got my eyes on the right setup I realized I was wrong).  I also had to reinstall the whole setup on the Arduino board for the PWM inputs and then everything was...

Observation Assignment Commentary
Nathan and I met at about 11 am on the 4th floor.  We decided to proceed directly from the Tisch building and head west through Washington Square Park and see what kind of phenomenon jumped out at us.  We took turns spotting and recording things that we saw.  There were a whole array of repeat circumstances that at first seemed mundane and of not that much interest but it in turn generated some...

Week 2 - Lab 2 and more
So, I completed the first lab from our homework, it went off without a hitch.  I understood the code, could comprehend the various in and out points between the breadboard and the Arduino.  Took me about 20 minutes or so. Here it is… So, I decided to move on to the next stage. I had several potentiometers lying around.  In addition I had a whole bag of RGB LED’s that I was...

PhysComp - Fall 08 - Lab 1
So, I kind of did this assignment in reverse.  I took a crack at the Blinky program we covered in class.  Unfortunately I had missed something in the initial setup on the breadboard and some piece of logic escaped me.  I ended up following a lab from the PhysComp website here: http://itp.nyu.edu/physcomp/Labs/DigitalInOut Once I got that project reverse engineered it shed light on what I missed...
