This was our first week attempting the Robo Sumo project. Firstly we were assigned with the L.E.D blink test in our lab after being briefed. We were given our breadboard, Arduino , L.E.D and resistors to build our circuit. from the previous semester we were familiar with all of the equipment apart from the Arduino.
We built the circuit as shown in the cookbook and step by step learned how to use the Arduino software to programme the Arduino nano. One of our group members copied the code from the cookbook and coded the Arduino. We used the method to calculate our binary number from our group number of 85. We used the method on the cookbook to find our binary number and verified by searching it up online.
We modified our code to create a second digital output pin and extended the circuit to add an additional L.E.D. By transmitting a 1 L.E.D 1 off and L.E.D 2 on and the opposite for a zero.
We encountered some problems with our Arduino at the start but with the guidance of our lecturer we soon figured out what was wrong and found a solution to the problem.
Here are some of the results from the challenege:
