Arduino Basic Experiment 2: Breathing Light Experiment

Arduino Basic Experiment 2: Breathing Light Experiment

In the previous experiment, we learned about the principle of the running light—multiple LEDs lighting up and turning off in sequence. In this experiment, we will learn how to implement a breathing light using Arduino. Unlike the running light, the breathing light achieves a “breathing” display effect by gradually adjusting the brightness of the LED.1. … Read more

Practical Control of Arduino and Sensors with Python Driven by AI

Practical Control of Arduino and Sensors with Python Driven by AI

One late night while debugging the serial port, the waveform on the oscilloscope suddenly started doing the mechanical dance— my Python script, after running for 8 hours straight, suddenly read the temperature and humidity sensor as gyroscope data. This reminded me of the I/O multiplexing dilemma Guido van Rossum faced when designing the prototype of … Read more
