Security Vault Attempt 2

Image
I attempted to build another project which included an Arduino Mega instead of an Arduino Uno. Unfortunately like attempt 1, although the diagram was simple to follow I could not get this project to work. This may have been due to the coding found for this project on instructables not working with the hardware correctly, the wiring as some wires looked as though they used T-Junctions which is difficult to re-create or the Arduino Mega board or components being faulty.

VVVV Session 4 - Study Task (26/02/2018)

Image
Study Task This study task allowed us to create a slideshow with three slides. Main VVVV file for this project which contained other patches that were compressed. These patches worked together to create the final task. Screen One This patch created the first scene/slide used in the final creation. The I/O boxes connected to the output of the 'HSL' node control the colours used in the gradient by altering the hue, saturation, lightness and alpha of a specific I/O box (output). The 'DynamicTexture' node creates the gradient effect while the 'LinearSpread' ensures that these colours are either going in a vertical or horizontal position. The 'UniformScale' node is used to change the size of the 'Quad' (square). The text's position is also changed using the 'Translate' node while the 'UniformScale' node changes the size of the text. Screen Two This patch created the second scene/slide used in the fi...

Security Vault attempt 1

I attempted to follow an instructables project on building an access control using an Arduino keypad and servo motor. Although I followed the schematic diagram closely and am sure that my connections/wires are in the correct place, I believe that there is a problem with the code/libraries provided - as my project did not work.
