The project aims to use at least two sensors and one actuator to make a program to show the basic concepts of programming and physical computing.

Hardware List:

  • Arduino UNO
  • Breadboard
  • Push Button
  • Led
  • Light Sensor
  • Buzzer
  • Sound Sensor
  • Resistors 220 ohm / 1K ohm / 10k ohm
  • Jumper Wires

My program uses a light sensor and a sound sensor to create a useless loop:

  • Press the button to turn on the light
  • The light sensor senses the light and then turns on the buzzer
  • The sound sensor senses the buzzer and then turns off the buzzer and the light
