Arduino Programming Task Overview For this week, week 5's practical, I learned about what an Arduino is and what is Arduino programming. I also learned about the different parts of an Arduino board as well as different components that can be used with an Arduino board. This includes LEDs etc. We were tasked with 4 activities. They include:  a. Interface a Potentiometer Analog Input to maker UNO board and measure its signal in serial monitor Arduino IDE  b. Interface a LDR to maker UNO board and measure its signal in serial monitor Arduino IDE  c.  Interface 3 LEDs ( Red , Yellow , Green ) to maker UNO board and program it to perform something (fade or flash etc)  d.  Interface the DC motor to maker UNO board and program it to on and off using push button on the board Potentiometer Analog Input This is how it looks like on Tinkercad ! After the assembly of the setup, I proceeded with copying and pasting the code that was provided by Tinkercad. However, there...

In week 5, there was a CPDD practical on Laser cutting. We first had to undergo a compulsory competency test using the group's SOP, followed by printing our parametric construction kit. The team did encounter certain issues and challenges faced along the way. However, we managed to solve them before the end of this practical. Continue reading and let me explain the small and crucial details that I managed to take note of while learning how to operate a laser cutter. To begin, I would first be showing you the part of the improved SOP that includes certain little details and notes that I managed to jot them down while the FabLab TE was explaining. As seen from the picture, you can see that there are little details or steps that I have missed out on. Let's dive deeper into what I wrote or observed.  Firstly, the first and most important mistake to avoid after importing and selecting a file, is to NOT DRAG the drawing. Why? This is because it alters the original dimension of the fi...
