Components needed Arduino Uno Board Breadboard Potentiometer Resistors Jumper Cables An RGB LED USB Cable A computer with the Arduino IDE installed Completed Circuit The image above shows the completed circuit showing the potentiometer controlling the color of the RGB LED. Changing the resistance, by turning the knob of the potentiometer, changes the color of … Continue reading Controlling LED with Potentiometer
Potentiometer
Components needed Potentiometer LED Resistor Jumper cables Arduino Uno Board Breadboard USB cable Computer with Arduino IDE installed Completed Circuit Potentiometer is a variable resistor. It has three legs (pins). Left most pin is for the power, right most pin is for the ground and middle pin is connected to sliding contact, called wiper, which … Continue reading Potentiometer
LED 16 Million Color Animation
Please refer to my previous blog for the completed circuit for the RGB LED animation. In the previous blog we are showing 3 primary colors( red, green, and blue), but in this project we will show ALL 16 million colors. The program below is the code for showing 16 million colors. int redPin= 11; int … Continue reading LED 16 Million Color Animation

Getting started with Arduino
What do we need? So we need an Arduino board that we can program on. There are various types of Arduino boards from simple one to complex one. Check out all available boards at https://store.arduino.cc/usa/. Don't get confused with all those boards. We will start with a simple board called the Arduino Uno. It is … Continue reading Getting started with Arduino
