Very excited my Arduino kit arrived, only one day after ordering. I got it up and running in no time, flashing leds, turning of an on leds with pressure switches, even switching a tri coloured led through all its colours.
But could I get it to talk to flash ?
Eventually (but only because I am incredibly stubborn and don’t know when to give up) I found a solution to get it all working not because there were none to be found just there were many that may have once worked but no longer did, and they were all multipart solutions so trying to work out which bits went with which was incredibly frustrating. But 1 full day and night later I finally had it working, and in no time built a couple of quick tests.
I created a game where you flew though a tunnel using presure (or light) to control vertical position.
An other where you moused over an image and the tri coloured led turned the colour of the pixel under the mouse (Well close to that colour, it would need a fair bit of tuning to get it accurate.
Lots of fun so many possibilities.
The following day and a trip to Jaycar for some contact mics and I had multiple mics spread around the house, it was quite exciting, could see the peaks of vibration and even see the delay of footsteps hitting one mic and then a further away one.
Tests one and tow down yes it possible now what to do with it all.
