Week 6 was all about LCS Screens & Tilt Switches instead of Touch board & Sensors because the materials, Bare Conductive Touch boards, ordered by Simone has not yet arrived, so hopefully we would do the remaining tasks on Week 9.
It was the most gruesome project when dealing with the wirings, but I jumped in joy and gladness when it worked and when I overcame that challenge especially when my board surprisingly looked neat and functional as much as possible!
This Arduino project took 1 hour and 10 minutes to complete, including troubleshooting. The major troubleshooting done was on the miswiring, one was on the wire of the resistor and potentiometer, where its one end was on A9 instead of B9 of the breadboard. While the other one was a solution from Simone, where wire connecting the potentiometer to the LCD screen is at the wrong slot, from B10 (dictated from the Arduino book) to G10.
The main ingredients for this project are: LCD screen display, tilt sensor, potentiometer, 10 kilohm resistor, and 220 ohm resistor.
This week has been going well! I was happy and gained more self-confidence in myself in doing more electronics than before, especially for this week's project. Haven't been working much on my website (apdv) aside from the fact that I just had to add some <head> and <title> to name the tab when going to different pages.
