This project first caught my eye because of the game controller that was being used to control the graincube. It was also interesting to me how within the controller there was a tone wheel in which he can shift the pitch of the sound that he is getting out of the graincube. He was also able to access different presets with the knob on the controller. Reading the code part of the lab really didn’t make any sense to me because I don’t really know anything about coding. - Hank Borders
This final project was interesting because it was something that didn’t output any sound, but outputs an image. With what he built, he was able to input any audio source to the program and get a sound wave image on paper. He used a sharpie that was connected to a motor that moves the pen up and down the paper. Looking at the result of the image and actual sound wave, it is very similar. - Margaret Sohn
This project looked interesting to begin with. It was a interesting project because if uses the audio input and outputs certain colors of light in the light strips. I really liked how she drew out the design of her final project in her blog. The video demonstration was the best video out of the final project lists for me.

With Audio
A music visualizer that is made with Arduino caught my eye. Watching a video demonstration of the project really made me want to make one for my room too. The fact that the lights move and change with the sound is very interesting.
Without Audio
There is a project that uses a sensor to sense the movement in front of a trashcan, and when triggered, the gadget opens the lid of the trashcan. This is something that isn’t complicated that can make one’s life style a lot easier.
3.In digital electronics terms a switch or button is a digital input, an LED is an analog output, and a potentiometer is an analog input.
4.I took computer science back in high school, but I forgot a lot about it. Thats the only computer programming experience I had before.
